I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 193
Wanda continued, "I'm really sorry for letting everyone down. I hope the public can give me another chance to make things right. "From now on, I'll be more careful with my words and actions. Meanwhile, I promise that I will never make bets with anyone again," Wanda said.Her last line carried a subtle jab at Millie, hinting that Millie had despicably tricked her into making the bet."Thank you, everyone!" Wanda concluded. With that, she bowed deeply for the third time, acting out genuine sincerity.Just as the reporters in the audience were about to ask their questions, Wanda's doctor stepped in. He then explained that her throat hadn't fully recovered, so she was unable to speak any further.But Wanda insisted, "Just go ahead and ask. I can handle it."The doctor replied, "Ms. Lytle, you're still a patient, so please listen to your doctor. If you keep talking, your vocal cords could be permanently damaged. Do you really want to risk losing your voice forever?""But…" Wanda hes

"Really? Can you be more specific?" a reporter pressed.But Millie didn't have any evidence to pin the blame on Stefan. So, she forced a weak smile onto her pale face and said, "Well, it was just an accident. I was joking."The reporters saw that Millie was struggling to move forward, so they parted in sync to let her through.Climbing the stage was now an effort for her. The moment she stepped up, she wobbled and nearly fell.Instinctively, Stefan approached to steady her.However, Millie had already steadied herself and unhesitatingly avoided him.Stefan's hand hovered in mid-air before he slowly pulled it back."Wanda, I'm here now. It's time for you to give me a proper apology," Millie said. She stood at the center of the stage, her icy gaze locked onto Wanda.Wanda bit her lip, her gaze darting around. It was obvious that she didn't want to apologize to her.Wanda's doctor seemed to read her mind and spoke up, "Ms. Jordan, Mrs. Leach isn't avoiding her apology. She'd alre

Millie felt a wave of dizziness and collapsed to the ground.The sight of her falling made everyone's chests tighten.Stefan instinctively ran off the stage toward her, but before he could reach her, Millie had already fallen into Pierce's arms.The moment Millie saw Pierce, she whispered his name, "Pierce…" With that, her strength gave out entirely, and she slipped into unconsciousness.Pierce's heart clenched at the sight of the deep gash on Millie's calf. Without hesitation, he scooped her up into his arms and rushed to the hospital.The wound on Millie's calf needed more than a dozen stitches. On top of that, the rust in the wound raised her risk of contracting tetanus, so the doctors had started her on antibiotics right away.However, Millie's immune system was weak. So, she experienced a high fever for days and remained unconscious.At the time of the attack, Tobias had found Samantha while checking the cleaner's room. She had been drugged and was unconscious.Since Milli

Millie woke up to find a familiar face staring at her.She immediately felt a wave of overwhelming emotions and clung to Pierce's neck, holding him tightly.She felt like a child, utterly helpless in that moment.Pierce's heart ached for Millie as he gently stroked her head. His voice was soft and comforting as he whispered, "I'm sorry I'm late."He had believed that Millie and Samantha were taken away in a cleaning cart and had immediately chased after the vehicle, but it had all been a diversion.He'd realized his mistake and turned back, but the delay had cost him precious time. By the time he returned, the press conference was nearly over.Millie cried for a while before gradually calming down.She didn't blame Pierce. Anyone would have assumed that it was a kidnapping. But in reality, it was just a tactic that Stefan had used to ensure she missed the press conference."Is Samantha okay?" Millie suddenly asked, concern flashing in her eyes.Even though Millie didn't like S

The post was likely from a socialite, with tags like "wedding of the century" attached.In the photo, everyone stood clapping and cheering. Among the crowd, someone had captured a faint silhouette through the gaps between the people.Onstage, a couple was locked in a passionate kiss. Offstage, another couple was also stealing a quiet moment, their embrace and kiss going unnoticed by most.Someone commented, "What a beautiful shot."Millie zoomed in again and again. Whether it was due to the filter or the angle, the image was unclear and showed only two vague outlines.Still, she knew without a doubt that it was her and Pierce.They had kissed in secret, and somehow, it had been caught on camera and shared online.Fortunately, the image was blurry, and the publisher didn't elaborate. So, the viewers had no idea who the couple was.Millie locked her phone. But moments later, she unlocked it again. Almost without thinking, she saved the photo. After all, it was quite a beautiful

Millie's eyes widened in disbelief. She couldn't believe that such a bold statement had come from a little boy."H-How old are you? Do you even know what it means to get married?" Millie asked."I'm already ten. I'm not a kid anymore. Of course, I know what it means—it's spending my whole life with you. I'll be good only to you, and you'll only be good to me," Caleb replied matter-of-factly.Millie was stunned, but more so by the fact that he claimed to be ten! He barely looked six or seven, and his frame was frail—a clear sign of malnutrition."Why do you want to get married? You're just a child," Millie exclaimed.Caleb dropped his head, his expression crestfallen.He began, "When Mom passed away, she held my hand and said that she wouldn't get to see me grow up and get married. I… I won't get to grow up into an adult either. So, I just want to make her wish come true and find a bride ."Millie's heart clenched at his words.His mother had died. And he was sick—gravely ill, j

"Does he have a gun? The very powerful kind?" Caleb asked."Of course," Millie replied without hesitation. "His aim is legendary. He could hit a target a hundred yards away." Millie started shamelessly fabricating the story.Caleb's eyes sparkled with awe, all traces of his earlier fright gone. "Can he turn invisible?""Sure. He can easily climb walls and move things without touching them!""Does he shoot webs like a superhero?""Only foreign superheroes can do that, but we're not into that. Instead, he's mastered martial arts and street fighting."Pierce had been away for over ten minutes, and Millie spent every second of it exaggerating his feats.She didn't notice Pierce at all even though he was standing beside her, still enraptured in her fabricated storytelling.She continued, "He can even capture ghosts! If someone dies unjustly, he can negotiate with the devil in hell and bring them back.""Wow, that's so amazing!" Caleb exclaimed."Millie, if you were Pinocchio, your

Caleb seemed a little cautious. When it was just him and Millie, his smile was genuinely bright. But now that Pierce was here, Caleb didn't know how to smile anymore. Instead, he offered a classic fake smile, grinned broadly to show his teeth, and raised a peace sign."Move aside a bit." Pierce wanted to be next to Millie and mercilessly squeezed Caleb aside.Millie angrily glared at him before wrapping an arm around Caleb and pulling him closer with a faint smile."Miss, can I kiss you?" Caleb asked."Of course," Millie replied.So, Caleb happily kissed her cheek.Just as Millie raised her phone and was about to capture the moment, Pierce suddenly leaned in from the other side.Caught off guard, Millie took the photo.In the photo, she was smiling brightly, with one person on each of her sides, both of them kissing her cheek.Millie cast a peculiar glance at Pierce. She wished he could stop acting like this. After all, people would easily misunderstand them.Millie thought t

Unfortunately, Millie was still preoccupied by Pierce's situation that she hadn't picked up on the subtle hint in Julian's comment."Besides, things are fine as they are. Marriage is all about living life with someone. Being with Pierce isn't too bad," Millie said. Then, she lowered her head to work on her design drafts, missing the flash of disappointment that crossed Julian's eyes.Julian wondered—if he had appeared in Millie's life before Pierce, would she have chosen to live her life with him instead?Julian knew that he should be content with the hand that he'd been dealt. After all, Millie was already married. Even if there wasn't much affection between the pair, it would be immoral and against the law to interfere between them.But how could he accept losing the one he loved just because he was a step too late?He had to try.…Millie had recently been focusing on her career.Regardless of the prejudice others held against her, they couldn't deny her talent. Internatio

"Jason came by today," Pierce said.Millie's heart stuttered at his words. She had almost forgotten about it. It seemed like the approval had gone through, and he had received his gun."I see," she simply replied.Millie wanted to ask if he liked it but stopped herself when she recalled that he didn't celebrate his birthdays.However, Pierce seemed to have guessed her thoughts. He gently stated, "I really like the gift you gave me.""That's good. Let's eat." Millie changed the topic."I'm sorry I've disappointed you," Pierce said."It's nothing. You should have told me earlier. I don't want to hear about you from Samantha. You can tell me things yourself, but if you don't… then forget about it. I'm not that interested anyway."Although Millie was in front of him, Pierce felt like she was very far away. Millie didn't dwell on what had happened and never brought it up again. It was as if nothing had happened. However, Pierce knew this had left a mark that was hard to erase.

Millie tried to break free, but Pierce held her too tightly that it even caused her ribs to ache."It Hurts..." she couldn't help but let out a soft cry.Pierce immediately released her and anxiously looked at her. "I… didn't mean to do that. I hurt you, right? I'll be more careful next time..." He was rather a little flustered, as if he were a child who'd done something wrong."It's fine. Just get back to bed and lie down," Millie replied.So, Pierce obediently lay back on the bed.Millie then asked, "Are you hungry? I passed by a fast food restaurant earlier. Many people are eating there even though it's so late. It must be delicious, so I got two portions to go."Pierce simply nodded at her words.When Millie looked up, she felt like she was falling into a deep abyss. Pierce's gaze was intently fixed on her, and it made her a little uncomfortable. "Why are you staring at me like that?" she asked.Only then did Pierce look away.This felt unreal to him."I thought you wer

Millie was rather annoyed. "What do you want to say?""Millie, aren't you curious about how Pierce got injured?" Tobias asked."I don't care," she retorted.Tobias began, "Ms. Atkinson was hurt. If the wound had been a little deeper, it could have severed an artery, and she might not have survived. "Pierce didn't know that you were innocent. Back then, all the evidence was against you. Ms. Atkinson was adamant about punishing you too. She's his sister, and you're his wife—he was caught between the both of you."Tobias continued, "He didn't want to let his sister suffer, but he also didn't want to punish you. He wanted to return a knife wound with another, but because he took the blame on your behalf, he decided to punish himself with two cuts."Pierce is an honest person. He could have made it superficial, but no—he insisted on cutting deep enough to expose the bone. That way, Ms. Atkinson would be appeased and not trouble you any further."He then added, "He ended up covered

Millie's mind raced. At that moment, she desperately wished to crawl into a hole. "I… I'm a caregiver who was hired to care for you tonight," she lied."Millie, I'm a police officer. I can easily see through your disguise," Pierce replied.Millie blushed. She forgot that he was a professional.She took off her mask, annoyed. "It's me. What about it? I've come to see if you've died," she retorted, deliberately putting on a fierce attitude. "Since you're not dead, I'll leave now…" Millie quickly walked over to the door. However, the moment her hand touched the handle, it fell off.The door was broken. Now, she couldn't leave at all."Is there anyone there? Open the door! Help!" she called out.But no matter how much Millie yelled, there was no response from the other side of the door. She then gave the door a hard kick in a fit of anger, but it was only to hurt her toe in the process. The pain made her grimace and nearly made her cry.Upon seeing this, Pierce—not caring th

Millie didn't think she'd see Tobias here. He was working at the front desk, so he didn't notice her. He then hastily left.Millie froze. Tobias kept saying that Pierce was sick. He said his condition wasn't too good, and he hoped that she would visit. However, Millie was still angry with him, so she constantly refused.Over the past two days, Tobias hadn't sought her out. Hence, Millie was under the impression that Pierce wasn't seriously ill and that he had recovered. But considering how Tobias was in the hospital now, did this mean that Pierce might still be here too?"Millie, why are you still here?" Julian suddenly asked."Julian, could you help me ask around if Pierce is in this hospital? Is he unwell? Is it serious?" Millie simply replied."Sure, I'll do that for you.""Don't disclose that I'm the one asking, okay?" Millie added."Alright, I understand," Julian answered with a smile. However, as he turned away, his expression turned bitter.If Millie understood his fee

Tobias grew increasingly anxious. If Millie were to speak up and ask Pierce to take care of himself, he would undoubtedly listen.After Pierce finished his meeting, he was already running a low-grade fever. Still, he continued working as though nothing was wrong. Tobias couldn't bear it anymore and decided to personally find Millie.At that time, Millie was at her studio handling some work."Millie, Pierce has been working nonstop. He's skipping lunch, and he's only sleeping four or five hours a night. No one can withstand such exhaustion no matter how robust they are."You don't have to visit him. Just give him a call or send a message to ask him to rest. If you do that, he'll definitely listen to you," Tobias pleaded."His body is his responsibility. If he doesn't care for it, what does that have to do with me? Don't overestimate my importance. My relationship with Pierce is just… ordinary," Millie replied, her tone detached. But as she uttered those words, a hint of diffidenc

The commotion subsided after everyone had been dragged away. Finally, Millie felt a rare moment of peace.She wasn't a saint. Why should she go easy on the maids who had tormented her?Millie glanced at Pierce, wondering if he regretted his decision to marry her. After all, she was indeed a bad woman in the eyes of others. If he wanted a divorce, she'd agree without hesitation.But Pierce's intense gaze was filled not with disgust. Rather, it was filled with admiration.Millie couldn't fathom what he meant by that."Take a moment to rest. I'm going upstairs to grab something," Pierce said."Do whatever you want," Millie replied indifferently.A short while later, Pierce came back down. He said, "I've moved all my belongings to the guest room. It's locked, so you won't have to see them. I won't be staying here. You can make any changes to the house you like."In fact, you can even tear it down if you want. The maids answer only to you, and I'll cover the expenses. If they're n

After that, Stefan didn't come and visit again.Millie stayed in the hospital for five days, during which her condition steadily improved. She no longer felt light-headed when she stood, and the bruises and injuries on her body began to heal too.When it was time to leave, she packed her things and decided to go to the villa to retrieve her personal belongings.During her hospital stay, Millie had barely spoken to Pierce. He'd come to visit her daily, and although sometimes he would be delayed by work, he would still come late at night. Often, it seemed like he wanted to say something, but he ultimately held himself back. His deep-set, unreadable eyes seemed to hold countless emotions, but Millie didn't try to decipher them.When she was discharged, Pierce drove her back to the villa.To her surprise, she was greeted by a row of maids in matching uniforms as soon as she entered. All of them were unfamiliar faces.They stood respectfully and greeted her in unison, "Greetings, Mr
