Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire novel Chapter 390

Selena thought she had nothing left to say to Everett, but it turned out she was still brimming with anger and heartache. She’d been holding onto that resentment for a long time.

She blamed him for being cold and unfaithful, for always siding with Margot, almost endangering her baby, for not loving her yet refusing to let her go.

Everett's intense gaze felt like it was pinning her down. Finally, Selena told him the truth. All the compliance and sweetness she’d shown recently? It was all an act.

To him, it was like tearing up a business contract right in front of him! She’d pushed his buttons again, stepping right into his danger zone.

Rage surged through him, chilling the air around them. Everett’s handsome face was expressionless, just a mask of icy indifference as he shattered her hopes with his words.

“Too bad, Selena, you're not getting what you want!”

Deception, manipulation, betrayal—he’d allowed these things to happen, but not anymore.

“You don’t want my child? Well, too bad, you’re going to have it!”

He moved closer, their toes almost touching. Selena tried to step back but found herself trapped in his arms.

Everett leaned in, whispering softly in her ear, “I wanted to be good to you, but you didn’t care. So now, let’s see how you handle my bad side.”

His words were light, but they weighed heavily on Selena, sending chills down her spine.

With that, he scooped her up and carried her to the sofa, tossing her down.

Her breath came in sharp, ragged gasps, tears streaming down her face. “Everett, you jerk!”

Everett’s head snapped to the side from the slap, but he didn’t seem bothered. He licked his lips, then grabbed her face again and kissed her deeply.

The more she fought, the more it fueled his desire to conquer her, until she eventually ran out of strength…

No one knew how much time had passed when dusk settled over the big, quiet villa.

Everett stood up, calmly fastening his watch, and looked down from above at the woman curled up on the sofa, her back turned to him.
