NovelEnglishChapter 927 Everett was caught in a storm of emotions, unsure of his true desires. He resented Selena for always walking away so easily, and in his frustration, he'd thrown out sharsh words, claiming he was done with her. Yet, ironically...
Every the caught wind of her leaving or being with someone else, he just couldn't keep his cool.
Maybe it was that stubborn pride, refusing to let things go.
Ignoring it felt suffocating, and expressing it didn't bring any relief either, leaving him in a constant state of turmoil.

As their eyes met, Everett couldn't help but notice how stunning she was, every detail flawless and captivating. He had uttered words of finality, yet never truly severed their ties, while she... she didn't fight for them, and when she said it was over, she meant it.
How long had it been? And she could so easily move on to someone new.
The thought gnawed at him, filling him with a simmering resentment.
Selena, unaware of Everett's chaotic inner world, only saw his behavior as irrational and increasingly erratic.
A father of two, yet acting like a child.
More immature than Mateo! She was worn out, with neither the tnor energy to play these endless games with him.
"Fine, I agree. Can you let go ofnow?" Everett was taken aback by her quick agreement, a flicker of hope sparking within him. Maybe... he wasn't the only one still holding on.
His pent-up emotions eased a bit as he released Selena's wrist, only to gently take her hand and lead her outside.
The car was waiting at the curb. The driver opened the back door, and Selena got in first, followed by Everett. As the car merged into traffic Everett watched her silent profile, ready to speak, when Selena suddenly turned to him, breaking the silence first.

Selena spoke without hesitation, "I genuinely can't wrap my head around your behavior anymore, and maybe you can't either." "You resent that you're not as important toas you'd like. You're uncomfortable, trying to makejealous, hoping I'll lose myself over you, is that it?" "Lettell you, Everett, I've been through all of that. You should remember those days when I loved you so desperately, like a madwoman. Maybe you thou no that was true love, but in hindsight, I realize how foolish I was."
"That was the most painful chapter of my life, a knot I can't untangle. I swore never to becthat woman again. Love yourself first before loving others. I won't give my all to love someone anymore. I'm putting myself first now."
"So, I can't be who I was. What you want, I can't give you. Thereforem going our separate ways is the right decision."
Everett's expression turned grim, his demeanor growing cold) casting an er oppressive atmosphere in the car. The driver in the front seat nearly held his breath, trying to fade into the background.
Selena remained unfazed, standing her ground against Everett.
"Everett, I'll say this one last time: if you keep up with this childish behavior, I'll go marry someone else, becanother man's wife." Everett grabbed the back of Selena's neck, pulling her close, growling, "You wouldn't dare!" Selena smirked coolly, "Try me."
