Selena's lips curled into a subtle, knowing smile. If Abraham didn’t have some serious skills, he wouldn’t have gotten this far. She never thought Mallie alone could bring him down.
But still...
Selena had a plan up her sleeve. She leaned over to Holt, whispering a few instructions. He nodded and quickly slipped away.
As the bodyguards moved to take Mallie away, another woman stepped forward from the crowd, shouting that she was once one of Abraham's mistresses. She claimed she’d been cast aside when she refused to terminate her pregnancy, leaving her life in shambles, worse than death itself.
Abraham's face, which had just started to relax, immediately tightened with tension. Levi was equally stressed—just as they managed to deal with Mallie, another woman appeared. He signaled for the bodyguards to grab her too.
Then, another woman emerged, saying she was also a former lover of Abraham. Currently, she was in his good graces, so she hadn’t suffered yet. But she'd overheard whispers about Abraham’s extravagant lifestyle funded by secret, shady money.
With three women backing up Mallie's story, Abraham's staunch supporters felt deceived and began to turn against him. The crowd started hurling things onto the stage. Abraham, unable to dodge, got hit on the forehead and body, making a spectacle of the scene.
With the situation spiraling out of control, Levi gave up on capturing the women and gathered the bodyguards to shield Abraham, struggling to break through the crowd and get away.
...
The media jumped on the story, and within half an hour, Abraham's reputation was in tatters. Selena handed the other two women over to Holt and left with Mallie in a car driven by one of her bodyguards.
Turning to the bodyguard, Selena asked, “How many are following us?”
The bodyguard glanced back, “Three cars, all packed with people. Ms. Selena, we’re likely to be intercepted.”
Selena thought for a moment and then turned to Mallie, “Let’s swap jackets and pull over. You’ll take this car, and I’ll go with the others in another.”
Mallie froze. “You… you’re going to take my place? But in this situation, even if you get caught, who knows what Mr. Abraham might do to you. If something happens…”
