Mille folded the tie neatly and placed it into the drawer.She then got up and went to the bathroom to stare at herself in the mirror.Her face was still visibly flushed, and even though Pierce and her had not gone all the way, the teasing alone had already worn her out.Millie wondered what would happen if they were to reach that final step. Then, she immediately splashed her face with cold water to stop her mind from wandering further.Pierce did not want to go all the way with her. The only time he had ever brought it up was because she wanted to go public about her past.He mentioned that he would take responsibility for the rest of his life so long as she became his wife. Given his sense of duty and responsibility, he felt obliged to protect her once he had taken over her body.It served as a shackle of sorts.Pierce resisted that notion deep within his heart. Even as he reached orgasm, he had taken several steps back so as to put some distance between Millie and himself.

Millie felt a little embarrassed after reading the message.She didn't blame Pierce for anything since she wasn't forced into it. If anything, she also willingly joined in at the end.Millie hesitated for a while and texted her reply: "It's not what you think. Something urgent just came up at the studio, so I had to leave. You don't have to stay at the company. Come home tonight.""Alright, then let's have dinner together tonight."Millie felt a mild headache come on. In truth, she didn't feel like having dinner with Pierce either. But if she were to refuse, he would probably assume that she was still hung up over what happened last night.So, she had no choice but to accept. Pierce replied, "I'll pick you up at six.""I might still be busy with work by then. I'm actually not sure when I'll be able to leave.""It's fine, I'll wait for you."Millie had no words left to argue.The studio had gotten significantly busier recently. Wanda's public apology paired with Millie's repu

At that moment, Julian called out to her, "Millie, there's a question that I've been meaning to ask you for some time.""Fire away, Julian," Millie replied."Who do you think is better-looking, me or Pierce?"Millie choked on her food and coughed so hard that tears gathered at the corners of her eyes. What sort of question was that?"Eat slowly, nobody's going to take your food away from you." Julian patted her on the back.Millie finally regathered herself after a while and quickly said, "Both of you are good-looking in your own way!" She wasn't going to offend anyone here. Julian's smile widened. He then put a hand on his cheek before continuing to ask, "Then from the two good-looking options you have, choose one who is better looking.""Julian… What a shallow question…""Just say it, I want to know too," Pierce said, his voice low and pleasing to the ear.He looked at Millie calmly, as if he was saying that he wouldn't be angry even if she felt that Julian was better-loo

"Let's go home, I'm tired." Millie didn't want to discuss it, so she changed the topic.Pierce looked at her in frustration, but he could only drive her back home. Millie pretended to be asleep on the way home to avoid the awkwardness of being alone with Pierce. When she returned to the villa, she went directly upstairs. She didn't allow Pierce to sleep in the room, either. …The next day, Millie overslept on purpose so that she wouldn't have to leave the house with Pierce. When she went downstairs, she found that the housekeepers were energetically decorating the living room. "What are you doing?""It's Mr. Atkinson's birthday in a few days. We're secretly putting up some decorations to give him a surprise."Millie lightly knocked her head. She had been so busy that she'd forgotten Pierce's birthday at the end of the month. "How do you usually celebrate?" she asked."Ms. Sammy would buy a cake and make a home-cooked meal for him, and there'll be presents too.""Despi

No one was cooking in the kitchen. Were they going to eat out?As Millie was pondering this, the sound of a car horn honking came from outside. Unexpectedly, Samantha and Pierce arrived together.Samantha, who was usually lively and chatty, silently stood behind Pierce. She was unusually subdued that day."You're back! Are we eating out tonight? Should we bring the cake with us?" Millie asked.Pierce froze, his expression dark as he stared at the cake on the table. He questioned, "Did you prepare this?""What's wrong?" Millie instinctively took a step back as a chill ran down her spine. Pierce's gaze was terrifying.Just then, Samantha quickly spoke up, "Pierce, Millie just joined us recently and isn't aware of this. Don't be mad at her. "You know… Pierce was kidnapped at his birthday party when he was a child and almost died. He hasn't celebrated a birthday since then."Millie's face became ashen at her words. It was Samantha who had suggested celebrating Pierce's birthda

"How dare you hit me? Why are you all just standing there? Help me already!" Samantha became agitated and called for help.The maids came forward at her command, clearly siding with Samantha. Although the maids' movements were light, Millie could feel them sneakily battering her. When they grabbed her arms, their fingers cruelly dug into her skin.Millie felt pain all over her body. The maids subtly pinched her thighs, her waist, and other places concealed by clothing. Some even covertly pricked her with needles.Their methods were calculated and sinister, and it was obvious that Samantha had prepared them for this in advance.The pain was so intense that cold sweat dripped down Millie's face, and she realized that she had to get out of there immediately.Knowing that she was at a disadvantage, Millie acted quickly. If they managed to restrain her, she would sustain numerous injuries in the most covered up places that were not easily detectable when one looked at her.With he

"Pierce, now you've seen my true colors. I'm not a good person. From the very beginning, I got involved with you to get revenge on Stefan. I ruined Wanda's reputation to punish that scumbag and that vile woman. I was even willing to risk everything, including myself."You've seen it all—I'll stop at nothing to achieve my goals. Now, whether you call the police and have me arrested or decide to divorce me, I have nothing more to say," Mille evenly stated.Pierce frowned deeply, his expression unreadable. "The maids did call the police, but I suppressed the matter. This is a family matter, and I believe you didn't mean to harm Sammy. But no matter what, you shouldn't have used a knife!""Then what do you want me to do? Apologize to Samantha? Let me tell you, I'm not the type to bow my head. I'll never apologize!" Millie's voice rose sharply."I expected this," Pierce said with a frown, his gaze filled with a complicated mix of emotions, including disappointment.Millie met his eyes,

Pierce then picked up the fruit knife from the table. "I am her husband. Since I failed to keep her in line, then I share the blame. I'll take responsibility for her mistakes. So, I'll cut myself twice to double the punishment.""Pierce, no!" Samantha shouted in panic. But it was too late. With one swift motion, Pierce slashed his left arm twice. It left two deep wounds, and blood began gushing from the cuts. The wounds were severe, and he might even have damaged his tendons or nerves."Doctor! Get the doctor!" Samantha screamed.A vein throbbed at the side of Pierce's temple, but he didn't make a sound."Is this enough? If it isn't, I can add two more cuts. She's my wife, so her mistakes are my responsibility," he firmly said."It's enough! Stop! Doctor, hurry up!" Samantha cried even harder.The doctor rushed in and quickly bandaged Pierce's arm. Fortunately, the treatment was prompt enough to prevent any long-term damage to his left arm.Samantha, now a sobbing mess, clun

Millie and Pierce had been able to handle amorous moments previously. But ever since she found out that Pierce was the man back on the ship, she'd developed a significant aversion whenever she got too close to him. So, they hadn't done anything more intimate since then.Millie wanted to suppress her fear and to try and take things further with Pierce. She kept trying to convince herself that given the circumstances back then, Pierce didn't have any better option to help her.If he had had any other options, he would never have taken that path. He was different from others. He had deceived her later on because he feared that she wouldn't be able to accept it—all of his efforts were for her sake.Millie struggled to control her emotions and forced herself to move her trembling hand downward. Her hand uncontrollably shook, and her face grew paler by the second.However, Just as she was about to touch Pierce, he firmly caught her hand. His eyes were filled with absolute tenderness

Wanda met Stefan's gaze, still feeling reluctant to back down. But at that moment, she couldn't find the words to refute him.She was incredibly jealous that Millie got to be with Pierce—that meant that she had secured a better other half than she did. Also, she was displeased by the fact that Leach Group was overshadowed by Atkinson Group.Wanda had yet to see Millie on her knees, begging for mercy. She wanted Millie to admit that she had lost and was inferior to her. She wasn't willing to let it all go. On the surface, she agreed with Stefan. But in her heart, she was already plotting how to deal with Millie.Didn't Millie claim she would never be a mistress? But Pierce and Charlotte were engaged in the eyes of the public now. So, hadn't Millie knowingly become a mistress? If the media caught wind of this, the backlash alone could destroy Millie.…That evening, Millie visited Agnes and stayed for dinner at Robin's residence. Pierce had originally planned to attend a busin

Millie shot Stefan a cold glare. "You've wrongfully already accused me once. Are you going to do it a second time?"Stefan had been about to say something, but her words left him speechless. His retort got stuck in his throat.Wanda angrily pointed at Millie and screeched, "This time, it's obvious you pushed me on purpose!""Don't you know why I pushed you? My phone is my personal property. Why did you snatch it from me?""You were messaging my husband. You shameless whore!""You heard that, Stefan. She grabbed my phone without my permission to look at our chats. If she wants to check up on you, it's fine because you're her husband. She can check your phone as she likes, but she shouldn't snoop through mine."I have nothing to hide. You know better than anyone whether or not I've ever tried to seduce you!"With that, Millie turned and headed upstairs without sparing Stefan another glance.As she walked past him, Stefan instinctively reached out as though he wanted to grab her h

"Weren't you asking for a remedy for getting pregnant? Why is it about improving your health now?" Rachel deliberately asked despite knowing what was going on.Wanda's face briefly flushed and turned pale."I'll go check on Mom. You two have a good chat and talk it out. After all, we're family. You don't have to hold anything back." Rachel excused herself, leaving Millie and Wanda alone in the living room.All the while, Millie remained calm. In contrast, Wanda felt diffident and restless.She began, "Millie, don't you know you should be mindful and avoid close contact with anything or anyone related to Stefan? This is his grandma's house. Why do you keep showing up around here? You claim you have no feelings for him, but look at yourself! You'd do whatever that draws his attention!"You pretend to be magnanimous, but you're in fact, the pettiest among us all! You know you can't take him from me, so you're trying to upset us on purpose, aren't you?"Millie wanted to laugh at su

Millie hadn't expected Wanda to be here as well. The fact that Wanda and Stefan had reconciled within a month surprised her. Rachel was insistent on Millie staying for dinner and refused to let her leave. So, Millie had no choice but to agree, partly because she was worried about Agnes. She got out of the car, and Rachel hooked her arm around her's, treating her like family. However, the two didn't go inside immediately. Rachel, clearly bursting with things to say, seemed eager to vent."You have no idea how much I can't stand Stefan's wife! She drives me crazy. Do you know why she came over today?""Why?" "She's here to ask me for a secret recipe to help her get pregnant. I wasn't in good health in my younger years, so I sought treatment from an alternative medicine doctor. We were family-planning at the time, and I wanted to make sure I'd have a boy. Lucky for me, it worked, and I had a son. "Wanda, after her miscarriage, is desperate to get pregnant again—and with a

Pierce was in the middle of explaining something when Millie's other hand gently touched his cheek."Does it hurt? I'm sorry… I didn't mean to be so rough," Millie said.Pierce reached out and gently held her hand. He opened his mouth, wanting to ask her if being with him was exhausting. He knew he was a complicated and contradictory person, and Millie had to overcome her fears to be with him. Was it a torment for her deep down? But Pierce didn't dare to ask. What if voicing it made Millie confront the question and she decided that couldn't stay with him anymore? He couldn't bear the consequences of losing Millie. He'd kept her in his heart for so long—far too long to simply let her go. Millie's heart skipped a beat as she caught the conflicted look in Pierce's eyes.What was he thinking about right now?"Pierce, you can tell me what's on your mind. Don't bottle everything up, okay?" Millie said."Okay."And then, they both fell silent.Millie felt a bit helpless.

Millie nodded in confusion, and Pierce kissed her even harder. He then began to remove her clothes as his hand continued moving downward.At first, Millie enjoyed the intimacy, but her body slowly tensed up without her knowing why.Slowly, the fear she'd felt on the ship that day crept back in.She had been insulted, humiliated, and tied up like an animal. Her eyes had been blindfolded, and due to the loss of sight, every touch was amplified.That large hand had roamed all over her skin, using her to ease his loneliness.At the time, she had been Stefan's girlfriend and was forced into being intimate with someone else.The trauma of the event had even made her think about taking her own life.Suddenly, the fear surged to its peak."No!" Millie yelled. She suddenly turned pale, her body breaking out in a cold sweat. Out of nowhere, she found the strength to slap Pierce hard.Her hand throbbed in pain, and her fingers trembled. Her palm was now swollen and red from the force

"Oh, you want to know? That's my secret base. Once you give me a child, I'll take you there," Pierce said with a strange glimmer in his eyes.Millie was caught off guard by the mention of having a child. She felt her ears heat up immediately. What kind of outrageous words were those?"Keep dreaming. I'm not interested in your secret base," Millie quickly retorted. "Rest well. I'm going to the kitchen to check if your meal is ready yet," Millie hastily said and practically fled the room.Pierce watched her retreating figure, lost in thought.…Pierce stayed home for another half a month before he could finally walk on his own. His wound had begun to heal, with fresh pink skin growing over it. The doctor then came to remove the stitches. While the injury was essentially healed, Pierce was advised to avoid strenuous activities and continue recuperating.It was hard to believe that in just over a month, Pierce was almost back to normal. He was energetic and acted as if he hadn'

The first thing Pierce did when he woke up was to get busy with work. He didn't even stop for a moment to rest. If Millie hadn't given strict orders for him to rest, he would have worked himself into exhaustion.Pierce could argue with anyone, but the moment he was up against Millie, he gave in immediately.Tobias couldn't help but tease, "You're amazing, Millie. I told Pierce to take a break before handling things, but he wouldn't listen. My words don't carry half the weight yours do."Upon hearing this, Pierce shot him a glare. In the past, Tobias would have immediately backed down. But with Millie present now, he seemed emboldened."Millie, you need to give Pierce a good talking to. He's so stubborn! I heard that back in the team, he always volunteered for the most dangerous missions. While others hesitated, he charged in like a madman." Tobias saw his chance to speak and took it."Why are you so talkative today?" Pierce's tone grew colder.Tobias decided that he'd said enough
