MainNovelChapter 912 Everett sat quietly, eyes shut as if catching sshut-eye. Alex, not getting a word out of him, knew deep down what was on his mind. She sighed to herself and turned to the driver. "Let's head back to Lakeside Mansion." The car cruised slowly into the evening's embrace.
The next morning rolled around. After breakfast with the kids, Selena asked Ava to drop Mateo off at school. She hopped into the car and turned to Holt with new plans. "We're skipping Irwin Enterprises today. Let's make our way to Bennett Corporation instead." Holt had shown up earlier that morning and noticed Everett's absence, piecing together the puzzle. If Mr. Everett had unwavering trust in Selena, he would've been there the moment he was free. The fact that he wasn't meant there was still smisunderstanding afoot.

Could it be that with all the gifts the universe had bestowed on him, love was the one area he was left in the dark? Selena chuckled lightly. "It's not that he doesn't get it. He understands; it's just the emotional part that's hard for him to swallow." She figured that when Everett broke free yesterday, the truth must have dawned on him. He knew she hadn't really betrayed him, but she'd chosen to face things solo, not leaning on him. For Everett, that might've felt like another form of betrayal.
He was all about her, yet she had shut him out of her life. Holt, having dabbled in a few lukewarm relationships, couldn't really wrap his head around such intense, messy love.
Selena smiled knowingly, "That just means you haven't met the one who makes your heart burst with joy at the sight of them." Truly loving someone means your emotions are tied up with theirs, making it impossible for things to just be 'meh.' Selena placed her hand on her chest, reflecting. She was trying to find her own path to redemption. She wanted to rekindle that fearless love, the kind that makes you go all out for the one you love.
Otherwise, even if she and Everett patched things up, if she couldn't meet his growing passion, he'd end up spiraling again. Their love would break apart, sending ripples through their lives.
After all this time, she was worn out. She wanted no part of a relationship full of constant chaos. So she decided to handle things on her own. But when Everett was truly stuck, she could hear her heart pounding with urgency.
She discovered a flicker of feelings for Everett still smoldering inside. Only then could she trust herself to heal and fall in love with him all over again.

The car rolled into the Bennett Corporation's underground garage. Selena and Holt stepped out and took the elevator up. Today, Selena had Holt round up the board for a meeting. As they entered, the room was packed to the brim.
A few days back, the place was barely half-full when they called 'a meeting Now,
everyone was here, punctual and all, probably eager to see her stumble. After all, Everett had made a grand comeback! Selena, unfazed by the attention, strolled in with a confident smile and
took her spot at the head of the table. The board members were caught off guard. Given Everett's swift handling of Abraham and his crew, it made sense she'd be next on his list. Yet, she showed not a hint of fear.
