Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

"Where's Ms. Jenny?"

Suddenly, Alex's mind was racing with questions. She had no clue what was going on, but as she saw Yasmine confidently marching toward the stage, panic set in. "If she makes it up there, we're in big trouble!" she thought. Reacting quicker than her mind could process, Alex lunged forward and grabbed Yasmine's arm.

In a hushed tone, she asked urgently, "Yasmine, what's happening? Where's Ms. Jenny?"

Yasmine's eyes flickered with a hint of panic, caught off guard by Alex's sharp observation. But she was already in too deep, like a moth drawn to a flame, risking it all. There was no room for failure; she wouldn't let anything block her path! Feigning innocence, Yasmine replied, "Alex, I don't know why, but I can't reach Ms. Jenny either. I figured, on such a big day, we can't be without a bride."

"Mr. Everett has done so much for me; I can't just let him be embarrassed, so I..."

Taking advantage of Alex's momentary distraction, Yasmine gave her a hard shove. Wearing a gown and high heels, Alex was already at a disadvantage. Taken by surprise, she tumbled heavily to the ground.

Her head was spinning, making it impossible for her to get up quickly. She never imagined Yasmine would sink so low. It's true what they say - the dogs that bite don't bark!

Yasmine sneered down at her, a cold smile on her lips. After straightening her dress, she moved forward.

Her Mr. Everett was waiting for her in the dimly lit corner.

He'd take her hand, and they'd bask in the guests' attention and blessings. Yasmine would be the celebrated lady of the Bennett family, admired by all!

Just as she lifted her foot to step onto the stage, an unexpected twist unfolded.

A hand reached from behind, yanking her back into the shadows, followed by a slap across her face.

Yasmine stumbled, unable to keep her balance, and fell awkwardly to the ground.

Her veil slipped off, revealing her true face.

Frantically, she reached for it, but someone beat her to it, stepping on the veil and snapping it in two.

Yasmine stared, shocked and furious, her eyes reddening with anger.

Who was messing up her plans this time?

She abruptly looked up, freezing at the sight of the woman towering above her-Selena, with a fierce expression. How could it be... Selena?

What was she doing here? Hadn't she claimed she no longer loved Mr. Everett and wanted a divorce? "You..."

She tried to question Selena, but Selena gave her no chance, turning away and confidently stepping onto the stage.

The spotlight hit her, highlighting her natural beauty, which was even more stunning after her careful preparation.

Her moon-white gown hugged her flawless figure, slender and curvy-nothing like someone who had given birth, unlike Yasmine, who had to pad her dress to fit such an elegant attire. en

She burned with envy.

Everett's dark eyes fixed intently on the striking woman before him.noveldrama

He didn't show any eagerness or longing; instead, he stayed cool and composed, raising an eyebrow as he asked. "Ms. Selena, care to explain what this is about? Planning to run off with the groom?"

Selena caught the teasing glint in his eyes.

She silently cursed him for being so shameless! After everything he'd

done to push her to this moment, he still had the nerve to play it cool!

Yasmine glared at the pair on the stage, her fingers digging into the ground, her eyes filled with bitter resentment.
