Chapter 642 As Selena glanced over, Everett's gaze flickered with a hint of longing. He was searching for the
slightest trace of emotion in her eyes, hoping to find something, anything, that would tell him she cared. But in
the next moment, she looked away without a second thought. Picking up a pen, she swiftly signed her non
the divorce papers. Her handwriting was neat and confident.
Everett's lips tightened into a thin line, bitterness spreading through him, deeper than the taste of the bitterest
herb. Bradley watched, sighed, and shook his head. He had tried his best, but there was nothing more he could
do.
Selena closed the document and tossed it back onto the coffee table. Her eyes, beautiful yet sharp, spoke
volumes. "Bradley, you're not planning on givinganother fake certificate, are you?" she asked, her voice
cutting. The memory of those fake divorce papers still made her blood boil. If she hadn't thought they were real,
she wouldn't have let her guard down and cback, only to be hurt again.

But... her hand gently rested on her slightly rounded belly, and her expression softened. The one thing she didn't
regret was having this child. Haley wasn't just Everett's hope; she was hers too. For the rest of her life, even if
she never started a new family, having these two kids by her side would be enough. Bradley cast a quick glance
at his boss. Everett's eyes were dark and full of pain, and Bradley awkwardly adjusted his glasses. "Ma'am, |
promise you, everything will be handled properly," he assured her. Selena gave a slight, ambiguous smile. "Well

Everett carried his suitcase to the foyer, while Selena stayed seated, sipping her herbal tea, showing no intention
of seeing him off. He paused for a moment, knowing she wouldn't cto say goodbye, before he managed to
say in a hoarse voice, "Selena, take care."

Just as he was about to turn away, a small figure darted out. His heart skipped a beat. But it was Mateo, not

Even though his mom had explained it, and he had chosen to stay with her, the reality of his dad leaving was

He didn't want to leave them, or the sister-to-be. But the hurt between him and Selena was too deep. He couldn't
