Hoe ruthless and utterly shameless! After a tense pause, Everett spoke again, his voice dripping with smug satisfaction, "Selena, if it's money you're after, we can talk about it. Just be polite." He paused for effect, adding with a knowing tone, "You know, I can be quite accommodating at times." Selena knew exactly what he was implying. At that moment, she wished she could kick him out of her life. Flirting was the last thing she wanted.

"Everett, my mistake was dealing with someone as despicable, shameless, and arrogantly slick as you. Want to know why I won't sleep with you? You just don't measure up, big guy! I can't stand this kind of humiliation! "I'll generously give you this month's salary. Go buy yourself smedicine and sort yourself out. So young, yet so unsatisfying." Since he'd struck a nerve, she had to hit back. For any man, being called inadequate was the ultimate blow! Predictably, Everett's calm shattered, and he growled, "Selena!" Selena didn't give him a chance to reply, hanging up with a click.

Back in the office, Derick, having overheard the entire exchange, kept his head down, barely daring to breathe. Everett's handsface was twisted with rage, his breathing heavy, before he suddenly grabbed the phone and smashed it to the ground.

Derick watched his brand-new top-of-the-line phone shatter, his heart breaking along with it.

Why was it that whenever Mr. Bennett and his wife argued, he was the one who ended up suffering? ""Get out!" Derick made himself scarce in record time.

With trembling hands, Everett pulled out a cigarette, clenching it between his teeth, but couldn't manage to light it. Frustrated, he snapped the cigarette in half and tossed it into the ashtray.

Given Selena's current boldness, she wouldn't have dared to be so audacious in front of him yesterday if she really had someone else.

'So, she keeps turningdown because I'm not up to par?' Everett thought.

Everett, the epitof pride and self-confidence, had never doubted his abilities He didn't think a man as perfect as himself had any weaknesses.

But now, he was starting to doubt himself deeply...

"Selena, take a breather. It's just a hundred grand short. It's no biggie. I'll cover it!" Trying to smooth things over, Joy whipped out her card and urged the cashier to hurry up with the bill. Selena took a few deep breaths, her anger slowly fading. That jerk wasn't worth her emotional energy. "Joy, thanks. I'll pay you back later." Joy wrapped an arm around her shoulder. "Oh, con, don't be so formal Your uncle's basically my uncle, too. Consider this money a gift from me."

Selena didn't argue further, mentally noting to repay Joy. She'd hustle on a few more stories, earn sbonuses, and pay her back. On Brook's birthday, Selena made

sure to arrive at his house right on time. It had been a while since she'd while since seen Ricky. He'd gotten a bit tanner but looked more robust. She ruffled his hair. "Been behaving?"

Ricky, not a fan of being treated like a puppy, pushed her away. "Flying solo e again today?" Selena was taken aback. He sure knew how to strike a nerve.

"You little rascal, looking for a smack, aren't you?" Selena teased playfully! Just then, Aunt Claire emerged from the kitchen with someone trailing behind her.
