Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire novel Chapter 913

Was Selena still banking on Everett to remember their history and give her an easy pass?

Everett hadn’t shown up yet, so Selena leaned over to Holt and whispered, “Did you let Alex know?”

Even though Everett was no longer CEO, he still held the most shares, so she’d made sure Holt invited him.

Holt nodded. “Yeah, I did.”

Whether Everett decided to show was really up to his mood. After all, Selena's position wasn’t exactly earned through the most straightforward means.

Selena waited another ten minutes, then sighed. “Alright, let’s not wait for Mr. Everett any longer. Let’s get started.”

Director 1 snorted, “Ms. Selena, what game are you playing now? Mr. Everett’s back. Do you really think we’re going to keep following your lead?”

These past few days of taking orders from a young woman had been grating enough. Continuing to do so? Out of the question.

Selena ignored his jabs. She’d come today to resign as acting CEO. She’d never had any designs on Bennett Corporation.

She knew her limits; running Irwin Enterprise was already a handful. The massive Bennett Corporation was beyond her reach.

But if she hadn’t stepped in when she did, Abraham would’ve installed his own people, leading to even bigger messes. She was willing to take the heat to avoid that.

Selena surveyed the room, about to speak, “I have something to announce today. I…”

The conference room doors flew open, and Everett walked in, dressed in a sharp black suit, his hair slicked back. Alex and Bradley were right behind him.

They both had serious looks, ready for whatever was coming.

Their entrance was nothing short of dramatic.

With the door shut, the once-busy conference room fell into a pin-drop silence.

His smile was frosty. “Selena, how does it feel to watch all your plans crumble so quickly?”

Selena gazed at him quietly. Despite his calm facade, she could feel the storm of anger and... hatred beneath.

Things were worse than she’d imagined.
