Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 932

Selena had been through this twice before, so she instantly knew what was happening. Her eyes widened in shock as she glanced down at her abdomen, disbelief etched across her face.

Ava, who had seen this kind of situation before, recognized the signs from Selena's expression. She mirrored Selena's wide-eyed look and asked, "Ma'am, how long has it been since your last period?"

Selena met Ava's gaze, her lips trembling, but she couldn't find the words to reply.

Ever since her illness, her cycles had been irregular. With everything going on recently, she hadn't paid much attention. She and Everett hadn't been close in a while, except for that one night...

Could it really be such a coincidence?

Actions speak louder than words. Without further ado, Ava fetched a pregnancy test and handed it to Selena, suggesting she check to be sure.

Selena went into the bathroom and mechanically went through the motions.

Though the test only took a few minutes, it felt like an eternity. The result? She was indeed pregnant.

Selena closed her eyes, feeling a wave of helplessness crash over her.

It seemed like every child came at the most unexpected times, never conveniently.

Ava was both shocked and delighted. Another child in the family was a reason to celebrate. People from her generation valued having a large family, and Selena adored kids.

But this unexpected arrival was sure to throw a wrench in Selena's plans.

Seeing Selena sitting on the bed, lost in thought, Ava softened her tone, took Selena's hand, and asked gently, "Ma'am, what are you going to do now?"

Being pregnant meant the skiing trip was off the table. Plus, Selena's relationship with Rhett was already progressing slowly, and now, with her ex-husband's child on the scene, things might fall apart.
