Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Seeing the situation, Jaime stopped joking around. "Alright, alright, I'm with you. See you tonight-"

Selena hadn't slept well the night before, but catching up on sleep wasn't on her agenda.

Looking at how that jerk acted, it was clear he wasn't going to agree to a divorce easily. He either dodged the topic or kept dragging it out.

She couldn't keep letting him lead her around.

It was time to make her own plans.

Selena sat on the sofa, holding her iPad, browsing through lawyers.

There were quite a few famous divorce attorneys known for winning cases in the country, but as soon as they heard the opponent was Bradley from Bennett Corporation-the undefeated heavyweight, plus Everett's reputation-they mostly declined.

Winning or losing wasn't the main issue; they were mainly afraid of offending Everett and the entire Bennett family.

Of course, some lesser-known lawyers saw this as a chance to make a name for themselves by taking on Bradley, hoping to gain fame and attention.

But those types weren't interested in actually helping her win the case, so what was the point?

Selena scrolled through the options for so long that her head began to throb.

In this world, power and influence are indeed valuable.

That jerk used this to freely bully her.

Ava brewed a pot of herbal tea and brought it over.

"Ma'am, if your head's hurting, maybe take a break and have some hot tea."

Selena murmured a soft acknowledgment, took the teacup, and sipped.

Ava glanced at the lawyers' profiles and suddenly remembered something. "Ma'am, last time when I was

doing your laundry, I found a lawyer's business card in your pocket. Do you still need it?"

A lawyer's business card?

Selena then recalled the flamboyant lawyer she met in France. His name was... Blaine.

Pondering over the name, her eyes suddenly lit up.

She picked up the iPad again, entered the name, and clicked search.

Soon, information about him appeared on the screen.

Ava, not knowing much about these things, exclaimed in surprise.

"Wow, this Blaine guy is impressive! He's an internationally renowned lawyer!"

Selena hadn't paid much attention to the al world and was genuinely Su to discover Blaine's el impressive background.

He had numerous titles.

Every case he had won was notable.

Selena pondered for a moment and eventually had Ava fetch the business card.

Then, she made a phone call.

The line was picked up quickly.

Blaine's voice was as smooth and captivating as ever, "Mrs. Bennett, I've been expecting your call." Selena didn't waste words with him. "Whatever your reason for coming to me, I just need one answer from you."

"What is it?"

"Can you win my divorce case against Everett?"

Blaine stood by the large

on his lips.

"Absolutely."

"I'll help you achieve whatever you desire."

In the afternoon, Selena visited Blaine's office.

His office was lavishly decorated, with each item clearly being exquisite, especially the painting on the

wall.

It was a priceless antique.

As Selena observed, she quietly contemplated.

Blaine was likely wealthier and more powerful than he appeared.

He was probably more than just a lawyer.

Meanwhile, Blaine was watching her, or more precisely, studying her features.

He couldn't help but marvel internally.

So familiar...
