GoodNovelChapter 753 Who would have guessed that when Everett turned around, he'd see Mateo holding Haley's hand, both of them watching him intently. Their eyes said it all- disappointment written all over their little faces. It was like they were silently scolding him, "Really, Dad? You upset Mom again?" Everett just stood there, speechless. His pride as a father crumbled into pieces. Still, before heading out, he managed to mumble to the kids, "You two... go cheer up your mom." That night, Mateo and Haley crawled into bed with their mom, snuggling up on either side of her. Selena wrapped her arms around her kids, feeling sof the weight lift off her heart. No matter how bad things got, as long as she had her little ones, she could get through anything.
The next morning, Holt showed up with Jason's termination papers, urging Selena to sign them. But Selena, taking her time, finished breakfast with her kids before inviting Holt into the study. She grabbed the contract, barely glanced at it, and tossed it aside without signing.

"Miss, does this mean... your ex agreed to help out?" She had noticed Everett's car parked outside the day before.
"No," Selena replied, not wanting to dwell on Everett, "I need you to dig into Abraham's schedule. Getall the details, as soon as possible." Abraham, Joy's brother, the rising star and future big shot! Holt quickly pieced together Selena's plan, though she couldn't help but worry. "Miss, are you really thinking of going to Abraham? Do you really think he'll help us?" He was, after all, family to Joy, and Selena was just an outsider. The odds seemed stacked against her.
Selena took a sip of her black coffee. "Abraham's in the middle of a crucial election. Sure, he's the frontrunner but that doesn't mean he's without rivals At a tlike this, he can't afford any scandals. I tested Joy yesterday, and I suspect she's been throwing his weight around without him knowing. That's the gamble I'm willing to take!" "So, we've got to reach out to him pronto and have a chat." Holt couldn't 't help but admire Selena-she was definitely an Irwin through and through. After just a year of working with Blaine, her natural talents were already comet to the fore. She'd zeroed in on the solution in no time.
However...
Holt warned, "Miss, what if Abraham finds out and still sides with Joy? You know he's quite powerful now. Even if we get dirt on them, we might not be able to spill it, and we could even get kicked out of Newport." Joy's confidence probably cfrom this very fact. She knew Selena wouldn't stoop to asking Everett for help. And if Selena tried to go through Abraham, she might bel.ne even get a meeting, let alone convince him to turn against his sister.
It seemed like a dead end.

In the end, she might have to give in to Joy's demands, pack up her kids, and leave Northtown for good.
But Selena waved off Holt's concerns. "We can't not try just m because the outcmight be bad. If we do nothing, we've got zero chance. Enough talk. Get investigating." Holt worked swiftly and soon discovered that Abraham would be attending a private party in five days.
That evening, Selena dressed to impress and made her way to the party. It was an intimate gathering, ave and the ballroom wasn't too big. She immediately spotted Abraham at the center, surrounded by folks eager to win his favor. mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
