My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire！

Gavin paused for a moment, then picked up his phone to call Selena.

But no one answered.

Frowning, he headed downstairs and ran into Mrs. Gill, who had come by again today.

Mrs. Gill had thought things over the previous night and, after glancing at her daughter Nara, decided she couldn't be ungrateful. She had come to persuade Gavin to see Selena's true colors and not to let go of Keira.

As soon as she walked in, she saw Gavin rushing down the stairs, looking flustered. She immediately asked, "What's wrong?"

Gavin frowned. "Selena's gone." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Mrs. Gill said, "Where did she go? Gavin, you really need to think carefully about this. Selena isn't someone you can trust! She even buried he father in the backyard—she can't possibly be sincere with you!"

Gavin shook his head immediately. "That's not true, Aunt. Selena only did that because her mom forced her to. Her father died, and her mom didn't want to take the blame, so she made Selena help. Selena wasn't behind any of it… Plus, she's sick now… Could she have hidden the deed to the house because she doesn't want me to sell it? Maybe she's doing it for my sake."

At that thought, Gavin's eyes reddened as a wave of emotion washed over him.

Mrs. Gill was speechless. "Gavin, Selena's not that noble. If she were, she wouldn't have been fighting for the family fortune all this time! She's lost everything now. Without the Horton's money, she'll never let you go! You just said the deed's missing? What if she plans to sell the house behind your back to pay for her treatment?"

Mrs. Gill was convinced Selena wasn't a good person, and she imagined the worst.

But even she wouldn't have guessed that Selena believed Gavin was the one who was sick and refused to sell the house for his sake.

Gavin explained, "Aunt, you're mistaken. I'm the one who wants to sell the house!"

Mrs. Gill was taken aback. "You want to sell it? Gavin, have you thought this through? That house is in the city center, and it is worth twenty million dollars. Your parents saved up for you to have it when you got married. Are you sure you want to sell it?"

Gavin sighed. "Houses are just things, but people are what matter! Aunt, I can live here even if I lose the house. But if I lose Selena… then she's really gone. I found out that there's a specialist in Europe who's great at treating colon cancer. I want to take her there. Maybe there's still hope…"

Mrs. Gill frowned, then patted him on the shoulder. "Gavin, how did our family end up with such a romantic like you? I still think there's something off about Selena. Why don't you keep an eye on her for a bit longer?"

Gavin responded firmly, "I trust her, Aunt."

Mrs. Gill sighed. "Well, I trust Keera and Lewis. They're both upstanding people, and they're definitely not the problem here. If Selena's clashing with them, then it's definitely on her."

Gavin shook his head. "Aunt, every family has its own problems. Please don't speak badly about Selena. She's sick, and hearing you talk like this behind her back will only hurt her. And besides, it's not like the Gills lost much by not partnering with Keira. The Cobb family has always valued family more than profit. Aunt, when you had that misunderstanding with Keira and almost went to blows, didn't we stand behind you the whole time? Why can't you support me now?"

Mrs. Gill fell silent.

She pursed her lips. "But…"

Gavin frowned again. "Selena's just a young woman and Horton's illegitimate child. It's no surprise the Hortons don't like her. And Keera—didn't you dislike her last time, too? You had a falling out with her, and now she's clashing with Selena. Haven't you considered that maybe Keera's the problem? Why else would her reputation be so bad?"

Mrs. Gill was shocked. "No! Keera and I only had a misunderstanding. Once that was cleared up, we were fine… And it was my fault, to begin with; I was the one being unreasonable…"

Gavin pressed on. "Even if you were at fault then, I've done some digging. Ever since Keera returned to the Olsen family in Clance, she's been causing a lot of problems. Now, the Olsens are acting very high-profile. That's not our style at all. So, whatever the issue between her and Selena is, it's definitely her fault. Selena's kind; it can't be her."

Mrs. Gill sighed heavily. "Gavin, how can you not see what a manipulative little snake she is?"

"Enough, Aunt!" Gavin's face darkened.

He stormed out, slamming the door behind him.

He didn't go far, though. Instead, he took out his phone and opened Selena's location tracker.

Since her illness, she could faint at any time, so Gavin had set up the tracker for her.

He had no idea what she was up to.

Following the tracker, he arrived at Selena's location. From a distance, he saw her speaking to someone. Gavin walked over quietly.

Selena was saying, "My husband's sick. I need you to mortgage the house quickly. I need the money… and a passport. Something that can help me leave the country fast with the money."
