Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

She'd been stuck there for what felt like an eternity-just one day and night, but it was enough to break her spirit. As soon as she saw Abraham, she practically threw herself at him, wrapping him in a desperate hug.

"Please, brother, get me out of here. I can't stand another minute."

Having lived a life of luxury, she'd never faced such dire circumstances. Her pleas fell on deaf ears as Abraham stood silent. After a moment, she released him and looked up, confused by his lack of response.

Then, shockingly, Abraham slapped her. Hard. The force knocked Joy to the ground, her ears ringing from the blow.

Abraham looked down at her, his expression cold and unforgiving. "Don't you see? No one can save you now!"

Her public confession of all her wrongdoings had been streamed live for the whole world to see. Even though the video was pulled down quickly, the damage was done. People had recorded, screenshotted, and shared it everywhere online. There was no containing it.

If he intervened now, his reputation would be in tatters. With the election looming, he had no choice but to put duty before family. He needed to salvage his public image, even if it meant cutting ties with his sister.

"Didn't I tell you to leave Newport? I said I'd handle everything. But no, you let yourself get played and took matters into your own hands!" Abraham was exasperated. "This mess is your own doing!"

Joy clutched her face, sobbing. "I know I messed up. I'll do whatever you say from now on. Please, I don't want to go to jail. I'm begging you, you can't just leave me like this."noveldrama

She crawled over, clutching at his leg. "You've always looked out for me. Please, find a way. I promise I'll listen to you from now on!"

Joy could handle losing to anyone but Selena. She couldn't stomach that. She'd just been caught off guard this time.

Abraham closed his eyes, letting out a deep sigh. After a long pause, he crouched down, his gaze softening as he looked at the red mark on Joy's cheek.

"I'll get back at them for you, Joy. Everyone involved will pay, except Selena. Her biggest ally is Everett. Once he falls, she loses her shield."

"Everett's turned his back on years of family friendship and your childhood bond. I'll make sure justice is served."

"For now, stay put. Once I secure my position, I'll have the power to change things. Understand?"

Joy's eyes blazed with resentment and bitterness, but she knew better than to make things worse for her brother. She nodded, "I'll own up to everything and keep you out of it. You have to win, and I'll be waiting for you to come for me."

"That's my girl."

Abraham gently patted her head, then got up and left.

The car pulled away into the night, leaving no trace of their clandestine meeting. Leaning back in the leather seat, Abraham picked up his phone and made a call.

The person on the other end answered quickly, and he got straight to the point, "Go ahead."

...

The next morning, wrapped in a cozy blanket, Selena descended the stairs when a maid approached her. "Miss, there's a lady named Breanne outside causing a fuss, insisting on seeing you."

Breanne? Selena's curiosity piqued, she nodded for the maid to let her in.

When Breanne was shown into the sitting room, Selena was by the floor-to-ceiling window, gracefully preparing tea. Her beauty and composure were captivating,

making others feel inadequate in comparison.

Breanne couldn't hide her jealousy as she approached, head held high. She sat down with no regard for etiquette, chin lifted defiantly. "Selena, I've come to tell you to back off and stop shamelessly clinging to myman!" sŵnovel
