Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 956

Selena's grip on her phone was shaky, her hands trembling uncontrollably. Someone who looked just like her? That meant someone was out to get her, and they came prepared. Faces of several people flashed through her mind, but she couldn't figure out who it was. All she knew was that these were the fallout from Everett's romantic escapades.

All she wanted was a peaceful life, so why did trouble keep finding her? But she knew now wasn't the time to fall apart-her kid was still waiting for her. Selena took a deep breath, trying to keep her emotions in check. "Ms. Thompson, that wasn't me. I think Mateo was taken by someone dangerous. I need the school's surveillance footage as soon as possible."

Ms. Thompson, understanding the seriousness of the situation, quickly agreed. After hanging up, Selena forced herself to stay calm and scanned the area around the school. It was a bustling neighborhood, with cameras everywhere. No matter how slick the culprit was, they couldn't have disabled all those cameras. Even so, she didn't have the skills to access those recordings...

Swallowing hard, Selena picked up her phone again to call Everett.

Meanwhile, across town, Blaine was in hot water too. He and Matilda had just finished dinner and were about to get into their car when out of nowhere, a group wielding baseball bats charged at Blaine. Matilda screamed in terror, and Blaine quickly pushed her aside, taking on the attackers himself.

Luckily, the attackers had a clear target and ignored Matilda, zeroing in on Blaine. Blaine was quick on his feet, managing to take down several, but eventually, he was outnumbered. One attacker saw an opening and delivered a hard blow to his calf. Blaine grunted in pain but managed to kick the attacker away with his other leg.
