Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 942

Selena was caught off guard for a moment.

For so many years, whenever there was drama between her and any woman around Everett, it always seemed like she was never the one he stood up for. But this time, without even a second thought, he was on her side.

Yet, Mila had just announced she was carrying his child and had been given the grand treatment of hosting at Lakeside Mansion. How could she not be the one he cherished?

Mila, tears streaming down her face, complained, "Everett, your ex-wife can't stand me being in the spotlight. She's jealous and bullied me, and you just hit me without question... I'm pregnant with your child, how could you do this to me, you jerk..."

Everett's temple throbbed with frustration, a smile of disbelief on his face.

"Mila, I'm not blind. I know who bullied whom. And seriously, stop the theatrics. If you think this act will get you into Hollywood, think again."

Selena heard this, her eyebrows knitting in confusion.

Mila persisted, "Everett, what am I acting about? Isn't it true? Are you going to lie to your ex-wife and deny me and the baby?"

Everett sighed, "That's enough, Mila. Is your drama queen phase back? Do I need to call Uncle to take you home?"
