After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

Victoria sat for a long time, processing everything she had just learned.

Finally, she began contacting her lawyer, preparing to take action and assess her assets. Just then, her phone pinged with a new email. When she opened it, she found detailed evidence of Larry's misdeeds. No need for her to investigate further-she had everything she needed to kick that scumbag out of her life with nothing.

Having dealt with two major issues, Selena felt a wave of relief wash over her. She hopped into her car and sent a message to Maria.

"Got time for lunch? Let's grab a bite.”

Maria replied, “Sure, what do you want to eat?"

"I found a great steak place. I'll send you the location."

"Sounds good."

Putting her phone away, Selena started the car and began driving toward the restaurant. However, about thirty minutes into her drive, the car suddenly stalled. She realized she was in a relatively isolated area with no one around and very little traffic. Startled, Selena got out to check the car.

Well... she wasn't exactly a mechanic. After poking around under the hood, she admitted defeat-she had no idea what was wrong. "Miss Selena."

A cold voice suddenly broke the silence, startling her. She spun around to see a man with an icy expression standing a short distance away. "Where did you come from?" she asked, a mix of shock and suspicion in her eyes. But she quickly recognized him-it was Braden.
