I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 127
Pierce's voice was deep and rough, kind of like a really smooth cello.Millie snapped out of her thoughts. "I just... like the design. That's all," she said quickly, flipping to the next page."I'm a bit tired," Pierce said, wrapping his arms around her waist and leaning heavily on her back. "Let me rest on you for a bit." He really did fall asleep right there.Millie didn't move at all. Pierce felt like he was holding a huge, comfy pillow. As time went by, Millie's back started to ache, and her waist was sore, but she stayed still.Pierce, half-asleep, thought it was funny how different she was now. She used to be so bold and daring, but now she was as gentle and still as a kitten."Are you tired?" Pierce asked, sounding lazy.Millie looked surprised. "You're awake?""Yeah," he said, stretching a bit.Pierce noticed her red ears and joked, "They're so red! They look like cherries. I'm tempted to bite them."Millie felt awkward. It seemed like Pierce was always teasing her.

Millie hadn't told Stefan she was in the hospital, so she had no idea how he found out. He was here, accusing her of trying to get his attention on purpose.She knew Stefan had a big ego, but this was just ridiculous.Just as Millie was about to respond, Agnes came running out, clearly frustrated. "What are you talking about? She's not here to impress you. I'm the one who asked her to come keep me company!""Grandma, are you still trying to change my mind?" Stefan asked."I've decided I won't stop you anymore. Go ahead and be with Wanda if you want. The more I try to intervene, the more determined you seem. But let's see if she'll stick around when you have nothing left," Agnes said, rolling her eyes and grabbing Millie's hand."Wanda will. She loves me," Stefan replied, confident as ever."Millie, what did you do to make him think you're still into him?" Agnes asked, sounding frustrated.Millie looked confused. "Mrs. Leach Senior, I didn't do anything."Agnes sighed, "I believ

Stefan felt utterly humiliated as if he had lost all his pride and self-respect."Are you really so upset that she married me? Did you want her to be so obsessed with you that she'd do anything to get your attention? You sit there acting like you're so noble, saying you only love Wanda. How noble of you to be so faithful."Stefan, if you've moved on and want to be with Wanda, then just accept it. Don't act like you're being treated unfairly," Pierce said. "Who are you saying is unfair?""I'm talking about you. If you don't believe me, let's settle this with a fight. I'll prove you're wrong."Pierce, who was nearly six feet three inches tall with a strong, muscular build, wasn't just tough from working out. His strength came from real-life struggles and challenges.Stefan wouldn't stand a chance against him."From now on, stay away from her," Pierce warned before taking Millie and leaving.Stefan clenched his fists, watching them leave, feeling like he'd been made a fool of."

Wanda's heart raced when Stefan suddenly snapped at her. She tried to stay calm and not show any worry."No, Stefan. I've never tried to trick you. I'm honest with you. Don't you know that by now?" Wanda said firmly.Stefan took a deep breath, trying to calm down. "Maybe I was wrong to suspect you. You've always been good to me. It's just been a tough time at work. I'll get over it," he said, rubbing his forehead and heading upstairs.Wanda was still concerned and decided to investigate further. What she found was shocking.Millie wasn't just Pierce's lover—she was actually Mrs. Atkinson now. Even more surprising, Pierce knew all about Millie's past problems with the cargo ship and still married her.Stefan thought Millie was still hung up on him, but seeing her move on so quickly and marry someone else was too much for him to handle."Why does she get to marry into a rich family after everything that happened, while I'm still stuck trying to get Stefan? It's not fair!" Wanda tho

Wanda cried out, "I didn't mean anything by it. I just mentioned it casually. I never said it was you. Why did you slap me?"Everyone in the room stared at Millie in surprise.Millie's face went pale. Her reaction seemed even more shocking now that Wanda's comment had revealed the truth.She didn't want to look at the others, especially Bill, because she was afraid of his reaction."I'm sorry… I didn't mean to. I made a mistake. I didn't want to hurt you. I just reacted when you slapped me…"Wanda cried like she was a child being scolded.Millie was so angry that she almost slapped Wanda again, but an elderly person stepped in."I can confirm that Wanda didn't mention you. I was the one who brought it up first. It was your slap that made the truth come out."Honestly, I used to feel sorry for you, but now, seeing how you're acting, it's clear you're not just a victim. You're being unreasonable."The elderly's words made Millie look bad instead of helping her."You shouldn't b

"I'll go check on it," Pierce said with a serious look and went straight to the study.Even if Bill wanted a divorce, Pierce wasn't ready to give up on Millie.Just as Pierce was about to go, the study door opened. Millie felt a rush of nervousness and looked at Bill anxiously."I'm going to make those old ladies stop spreading rumors," Bill said angrily. "How can they gossip like that? Don't they have a family of their own?"Our Millie is the real victim here, and they're just making things worse! It's awful."Millie's mind was spinning. Hearing Billy say, "Our Millie," she realized he still cared about her.Her eyes filled with tears, and she tried hard not to cry.Seeing her tears made Bill even more upset."Don't cry, I'll make sure you get justice," he said kindly."Grandpa, they're not completely wrong. I'm not good enough anymore, and I don't belong in the Atkinson family. If this gets out, people will judge the family," Millie said sadly.She knew she hadn't done anyt

Millie had managed to keep her family together despite all the difficulties. Even though people criticized her, she held her head high and refused to give up."I will protect you," Pierce promised firmly.He was furious with Stefan for neglecting Millie just to celebrate Wanda's birthday. Pierce wanted to make things right for Millie.Within half an hour, things started to change at the nursing home. The elderly people who had been gossiping were taken away by their families. Their relatives came to apologize, promising to make sure such gossip wouldn't happen again.Millie was touched."You don't need to do this. The news has already spread. There's no hiding it now.""Even if the whole world is talking, I want to silence their chatter," Pierce said quietly but seriously.He thought to himself that as the president of Atkinson Group, he should be able to protect his family just as he had protected many others in the past."Thank you," Millie said with a warm feeling inside. He

Millie didn't hesitate when she heard Agnes' words. She raised her hand and slapped Wanda across the face.Wanda tried to fight back, but Agnes was prepared and had someone hold her down tightly."She can't seem to think straight. Just beat some sense into her!" Agnes said sternly. She came from a family of martial artists, and her decisiveness and fierce spirit were evident.Millie slapped Wanda again. "Don't you know why it happened? Was your birthday so important that you didn't care about my well-being? You must have been so pleased with yourself back then, right?"I haven't owed you anything these past three years. You knew he was my boyfriend, but you seduced him anyway! People like you will eventually pay the price. And if karma doesn't get you, I will!"Millie continued slapping Wanda until her hand was red and numb from the pain. Wanda's mouth bled, her hair was disheveled, and she was too weak to cry out anymore.On the other side, Pierce had Stefan pinned down, leaving

"Someone's been killed!" The crowd that had gathered outside to watch the commotion panicked, screaming and scattering in all directions. In the chaos, a stampede broke out as people trampled over each other in their desperate attempt to flee.Millie reacted first, grabbing Sharon's hand and trying to pull her away. But before they could move, a cold and threatening voice rang out behind them, "Stand where you are! I'll kill anyone who dares to move!"The entire room froze in fear. Everyone stood still, trembling all over.Wanda's face turned pale as she tightly clutched Samantha's hand. In a quivering voice, she whispered, "Samantha, what do we do? Guns… They have guns!""Don't panic. They won't dare to kill us," Samantha replied, trying to feign calmness. "My brother is Pierce Atkinson of Atkinson Group, and her husband is Stefan Leach of Leach Group. You're only here for money, right? Just name your price. Don't kill us."The man with the gun sneered. "Mrs. Leach? I've heard

"Millie, you're the real MVP here. If it weren't for you, Pierce wouldn't care whether I lived or died. That's why I'm treating you to dinner today. I made a reservation at a Michelin restaurant to properly thank you," Sharon said with enthusiasm."Alright, I'm on my way," Millie replied.Sharon was always mindful of boundaries. She wouldn't get close to her best friend's husband, not even by association.When Millie arrived at the mall, she called Sharon. However, Sharon didn't answer her phone. Just as Millie was about to redial, she noticed a crowd gathered around a jewelry store nearby. Among the voices, she suddenly heard Sharon's."It wasn't me! I didn't even touch her bag. You've got the wrong person!" Sharon shouted.Millie rushed over and found her being restrained by none other than Wanda and Samantha.Samantha was gripping Sharon's arm, refusing to let her leave. She kept yelling loudly that Sharon had knocked over Wanda's bag and caused an expensive emerald bracelet

Millie looked at Pierce and couldn't help but lament on missing out on the perfect "genetic material".Meanwhile, Pierce's face remained cold. "Millie, once bitten, twice shy. You're the most spineless person I've ever met. "Get out. I don't need you to take care of me."Left with no choice, Millie slinked out of the room, feeling defeated. Then, she called Tobias and asked him to look after Pierce instead.After that, she called Sharon to report her failed plan.Sharon exclaimed over the phone, "What? I can't believe that he didn't touch you even after all that. Is there something wrong with his brain? I mean, I understand that he's a righteous man, but this is over the top!"Millie sighed and replied, "I don't get it either, but I'll respect his principles. Anyway… how does one apply for a donor from a sperm bank?""Are you really going for it?" Sharon inquisitively asked."I just want to look into it. Pierce and I have been married for nearly four months, and in another eig

Blood gushed from the wound, staining Pierce's gray trousers a darker shade as it spread. "Pierce? Pierce!" Millie's voice grew sharper as she rushed toward him. Pierce's face had turned noticeably pale as beads of sweat formed on his forehead. His body burned with unfulfilled desire, yet the intense pain sent waves of cold through him. The alternating heat and cold left him drenched in sweat. "What are you doing?" Millie asked, her voice trembling. "You've underestimated me," Pierce said, freeing one hand to firmly grasp her chin. "This is my final warning—either you stay by my side wholeheartedly and become Mrs. Atkinson for life, or stop provoking me. The cost of toying with me is not something you can afford." "Pierce, I'm sorry… Please don't hurt yourself anymore," Millie pleaded. "I told you, that drug won't kill me," Pierce said through clenched teeth. The pain in his leg wasn't enough. Though the agony momentarily suppressed his desire, it surged back wit

When Pierce said those words, he raised an eyebrow, exuding a devilish charm that was impossible to resist. Millie couldn't help but think that if he hadn't chosen the path of righteousness, he would have been the most evil villain.Pierce was the type to be either wholly good or entirely wicked.Before long, not a drop of wine was left in the carafe.Millie's heart raced with uneasiness. She was unsure of what Pierce's unpredictable behavior meant. He had known about her plan, so why did he still drink the wine?When Pierce stood up, the effects of the drug kicked in immediately. His whole body radiated heat, and his gaze turned hazy. Those strikingly captivating upturned eyes now seemed to be filled with unrestrained passion. Millie, who hadn't even drunk any wine, felt an intoxicating dizziness just from meeting his gaze."Take me to the bedroom," Pierce murmured. His voice put an inexplicable hold on Millie. She couldn't resist and just did as he said, stepping forwa

The title on the cover was: "Sperm Procurement Plan". As Pierce skimmed the document, he saw two options stated—Plan A: Natural conception; and Plan B: Sperm donation and IVF.The document stated that from the moment Millie conceived, the child would have nothing to do with him. His child wouldn't have a share of any inheritance, appear before him, take his last name, or call him "Dad"."Millie…" Pierce silently clenched his fists and uttered Millie's name through gritted teeth.At that moment, Tobias decided to slip away, albeit he did so awkwardly. Even he thought that Millie had gone too far this time. How did she even come up with something as outrageous as to keep her child but not her husband? What did she take Pierce for?In fact, Tobias was very puzzled as to why Millie was always so keen to get divorced.…Sharon stayed at the villa for three days before Pierce arranged a new place for her. It was even better than her previous dwelling, with ten years of rent paid up

"You know, they say men in their 30s have intense physical needs. Pierce is about 27 or 28, so he's at the peak of his needs. If he's not getting some at home and not sneaking around outside, how much frustration must he be bottling up? Has he been handling it all by himself?" Sharon wondered aloud.Millie choked on the water she was sipping.Sharon pressed on, "Doesn't he have any desires? And what about you? Don't you want him? Aren't you tempted by his body?"Millie's face turned bright red. "What are you talking about? I've realized that men are the most unreliable things on earth. We can only rely on ourselves.""You're not wrong there," Sharon began. "Men are indeed unreliable. But what about children who share your blood? Since you don't trust men, why not keep the child but not the man? You can have a child of your own."Just look at Pierce—his height, looks, intelligence, and character are all top-notch. His sperm quality is probably impeccable! Life drags on and gets lon

"We're best friends, Sharon. Don't worry about troubling me," Millie said.The commotion outside had quieted down. Millie wanted to open the door and take a look, but Pierce lightly knocked on it before she could do so."It's a bit of a bloody scene outside. I've got to say it's not a pretty sight. I'll have it cleaned up first. You can come out later, okay?" he said."Alright. Are you okay?" Millie asked."I'm okay," Pierce responded.Millie finally breathed a sigh of relief."What's this? Were you worried about him?" Sharon suddenly teased, leaning over.Millie quickly denied it. "Of course not! It's just that he came here because of me. If he got hurt, I'd feel guilty.""To be honest, Pierce seems to care about you a lot. He got here so fast. That's the main reason I called you. Isn't he so much better than Stefan?" Sharon praised."They're all the same—neither of them is any good," Millie replied in exasperation.Soon, Pierce called them from outside. Everything had been

"The gun can't kill anyone! It can only cause minor injuries." Someone had figured out that the gun was a deception.Millie had gotten the gun from Thomas. If it could severely injure people, they would all be arrested by the police."Millie, you should go…" Sharon said. Then, she lunged forward and hugged the bodyguard at the front, wanting to buy Millie some time to escape. However, the door was locked from the outside and couldn't be opened in a short time. Besides, Sharon had a small physique too and couldn't buy that much more time for Millie.When Millie saw that the bodyguard was about to hit Sharon on the spine with his elbow, Millie's heart raced. She quickly rushed over to the bodyguard and blocked him from hitting Sharon with her arm.Suddenly, there was a cracking sound, and Millie's face paled in pain. For a moment, she didn't know if she had a fracture or a dislocation. Either way, her right arm was limp and numb. Was her arm crippled now?"What are you waiti
