GoodNovelChapter 852 Selena's dark eyes suddenly caught a spark of light. She glared fiercely at the man standing in front of her.
Everett gave a cold, indifferent smile. "Selena, you know the score. I'm a businessman, and I always act in my own interest. If you no longer bring any value to me, I can easily turn my back and walk away." "Sure, Joy's methods may be ruthless and downright dirty, but she's got a good brother. Once Abraham steps up, his alliance with the Bennett family will be a powerhouse. This marriage will bring endless benefits to bothand the Bennetts. Meanwhile, you... you're just not useful toanymore." "Stop... don't say anymore." Selena's eyes were bloodshot, veins pulsing on her forehead. Her voice, hoarse and grating from being silent for so long, sounded like it was filled with gravel.

Everett understood not just human nature, but Selena's mind too. Deep down, she was a stubborn woman who wouldn't easily admit defeat. She might be down now, but she wouldn't stay there for long.
By stirring up her anger and hatred, she'd clear her head. With unfinished business weighing on her heart, she couldn't let herself slip into darkness.
Flynn felt a rush of excitement and signaled for Everett to keep going. He set the mood with music and lit sincense to help out.
Everett wouldn't let Selena avoid the truth. He grabbed her hands away from her ears, pinning her to the headboard, forcing her to listen.
"Why shouldn't say it, Selena? In the state you're in, anyone could walk all over you. Oh, and I almost forgot about Mateo and Haley's custody, I can't let someone like you raise them. I've already got Bradley filing papers. I'm taking custody!" "Shut up, shut up!" Selena broke free from Everett's hold, her hands wrapping his throat. "You can't take my I Don't you dare touch them.." Everett sneered, easily prying her hands away and tossing her back onto the bed. He stood over her with ease.

He looked down at her, his lips moving slowly, "Truly pitiful."

Selena trembled all over, her hair framing her face, making her pale complexion almost translucent. No longer lifeless like before, she was now engulfed in anger and hatred, her facial muscles twitching her dark eyes blazing with a terrifying intensity, as if she had the power to set the world on fire. "Get out, get out—" She cursed, tears streaming down her face.
With his hands tucked in his pockets, Everett clenched them tightly out of sight, the veins on the backs of his hands standing out.
Selena, you can't let yourself fall apart. Do you want your enemies to win and your loved ones to suffer? Wake up, my love.
