I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 290
Millie immediately went to see the best psychiatrist in town."Don't be nervous. Please sit down, and let's have a chat," said the psychiatrist, Bruce Renner. He looked so young that Millie had some doubts about his credentials.The decoration in this place did not make it look like a clinic. Rather, it lookedmore like a cozy little home, and there was no pungent smell of disinfectant either.Bruce asked Millie what she wanted to drink—there was coffee, tea, and even latte.Millie felt nervous, so she ordered a latte.Bruce then brought her the latte and smiled at her. "So, what issues are you having?""I think I have Stockholm Syndrome. I know full well that he's not a good guy, but I can't control my own feelings. I care about him… I'm smitten with him," Millie replied."What did he do to you? Was it psychological or physical abuse?"Millie pressed her lips together. She was not sure if she should tell Bruce everything. But he was a psychiatrist. Logically, she should be

Just then, there was movement outside, and the ship violently shook.Millie was stunned and quickly realized that Pierce had brought his men onto the ship.She hurried to the decks and saw Pierce in his uniform for the first time. He had a buzzcut, his eyes were sharp like an eagle's, and he moved with amazing agility. He led the charge with explosive momentum, clearly fighting as if he had no regard for his own life. She saw bullets graze his face a few times. One tiny slip-up would end him with a headshot.Each time, he narrowly evaded danger by staying close behind others.The men stormed the ship and quickly captured everyone. Meanwhile, Pierce started to look for hostages and eventually only found Millie. Without hesitation, he took off his coat and covered her exposed body. Deep down, Millie knew that the effects of the pills were about to kick in.Pierce was about to leave while carrying her in her arms, but he noticed something off about Millie and brought her ba

"That's impossible! I must be having some psychological issues," Millie said."Ms. Jordan, you are unwilling to communicate with me. Are you worried about something? Is it because you don't trust me, or is it something else?" Bruce questioned."It's…" Because of Pierce's special status—if his wrongdoings were exposed, he would likely end up in jail.Deep down, Millie could not get over the incident, but she also understood that Pierce had saved her. In the dream earlier, she was the one who had desperately begged him to take her. When she thought about this, she felt deeply ashamed. "Ms. Jordan, since you have your own reasons, then I won't ask any further. But since you're here to see a psychiatrist, you should trust me."Go home and get some rest. After you've thought things through, you can come here again." Bruce was gentle and pleasant the entire time, showing no signs of anger. At Millie's insistent request, he prescribed her some sleeping pills to help with her sleep

Pierce agreed to let Millie leave before he had fully tasted her. He had to do it while he could still restrain his emotions, before he lost his conscience and went mad."Millie, you've gotten what you wanted. Are you satisfied now? See you at the courthouse tomorrow." After saying that, Pierce turned and left. He dared not linger for even a moment, afraid that he might regret it.Meanwhile, Millie felt completely dazed. She didn't expect things to progress so fast.Pierce had finally agreed to a divorce. She could stop falling deeper in love and finally have control over her own emotions. But why? Why did it feel like her heart was being pricked by countless tiny needles? An incessant and subtle pain ate at her from within."Ms. Jordan, I think you're perfectly normal."For some reason, Bruce's words kept echoing in her mind.Millie was normal. She wasn't sick. The only explanation was that she had fallen in love with Pierce. She had fallen in love with him without knowing th

"If it were me, I'd bind her or lock her up. I'd do anything as long as she stays by my side."Pierce, you're always so hesitant. Every time you have a chance to have her, you always hesitate because of how timid and fearful you are. You keep letting her drift further away from you! "Pierce, you have no control over anything. You deserve it…"Pierce felt a splitting headache, and his gaze suddenly turned fierce. "Shut up!" he roared.After a long while, he finally calmed down and rubbed his throbbing temples. "Millie, this time, I'll give you your freedom. No one can harm you, including myself."Pierce lay on the bed. He could feel the lingering traces of Millie's presence from the blanket that she had used and the pillow that she had slept on.Whether from not sleeping well the previous night, or because this room gave him peace, Pierce unexpectedly fell asleep.In his dream, he returned to the place where he had once been trapped.He and Samantha had been kidnapped. He tri

The sniper was positioned on the tree. If the kidnappers tried to harm the girl outside the factory, the sniper would immediately take them out to ensure her safety. But no one knew how things would go once she got into the factory. The little girl smeared some mud on her face and took away valuable items from Pierce. She folded her school uniform neatly, then hesitated for a moment before draping it over Pierce.She then turned to leave. Unexpectedly, Pierce reached out and gripped her hand tightly. "Don't go. You'll die…""I won't. The police will protect me. They're really powerful."Pierce really wanted to say that the police weren't all-powerful. It was just that kids were too naive and thought that the police were superheroes who could defeat all the dark forces.He wasn't sure if she was scared. But based on her shaking legs and faltering steps, she should be. Yet, she moved forward bravely and even turned around to smile at him."When I get back, I'll buy you straw

Julian was worried about Millie since she hadn't come to the fashion design studio for the past few days. He called her, but she just made up some excuse about needing to rest at home because she was sick.Julian thought about visiting her, but he ultimately changed his mind. After all, he would just end up looking like a fool with Pierce around.Meanwhile, Millie had already moved out of her previous place and moved in with Sharon.As worried as Sharon was about Millie, she didn't ask her anything.It wasn't until Millie showed no signs of leaving after living there for a few days did Sharon finally ask, "Did you have a big fight with Pierce this time? I mean, you've been here for so long. When are you going back? Hasn't Pierce come to beg you to go back yet? "If you ask me, you should give him a proper scolding—""It wasn't a fight this time," Millie interrupted before Sharon could continue."Glad to hear that. But why aren't you going back then? Is he away on a business tr

Millie frowned.Immediately, her phone rang again. This time, it was Sharon.Millie picked up her phone and accepted the call."Bad news, Millie. Pierce has made an official announcement about his engagement."Millie's mind went blank. It was only a week ago that she and Pierce had gotten divorced, and now he was announcing his engagement? Wasn't that a bit too fast?"When did this happen?" Millie asked."Just now. Before he flew abroad. It's a marriage alliance with the Cole family who lives abroad. The news is all over the place. The press managed to take some photos of him getting on the plane.""It must be fake news…""No, it's not. The foreign media has already made it public that the Cole family's daughter is engaged to Pierce. I'll send you the summary link. Take a look for yourself. It's hard to explain over the phone."Sharon then sent a compiled collection of the interactions between Pierce and Charlotte Cole. The two had met at a party abroad, and their families

Millie only breathed a sigh of relief after getting into the car. However, right when she was about to buckle up, Pierce held her head and pulled her close.Startled, Millie instinctively tried to break free. Then, Pierce whispered in her ear, "Don't move. Stefan followed us out here. He's staring at us from the outside.""He is?" Millie asked, wanting to turn to look. But Pierce stopped her and said, "The more you spare him glances, the more he'll think you're not over him, so don't."Millie felt that he made sense. Stefan was an overthinker and might indeed mistake her mere glance for something else.To put it bluntly, Stefan was just resentful because if she had not gotten together with Pierce and forgotten about him, she would still have some feelings for him.Once upon a time, Millie had looked at Stefan with pitiful eyes full of despair, but he'd never cared. He was only acting so out of character now because he had lost control over her."What about now? Is he gone?" M

Using miscarriage to her advantage, Wanda almost put Millie in jail.However, Millie didn't want to break the promise that she had made to Agnes.It had been a long day for Agnes, and she needed some rest. So, Millie said, "Mrs. Leach Senior, the doctor said that you need more rest. Don't worry about us. I'll pay you a visit in two days."Agnes nodded."Sleep tight. I'll be here until you fall asleep," Millie added.Since Agnes was tired, she soon fell asleep.Once Millie saw Agnes fall into a deep sleep, she quietly left the room.However, she didn't expect that the man she hated the most, Stefan, was standing outside the door.She thought that he had just arrived and said, "Your grandma's asleep. I think you should come later after she wakes up on her own. Don't disturb her with any noise."Stefan kept quiet. All he did was look at Millie with a complicated look in his eyes.He had thought that she would have more to say to him. He didn't expect her to just leave after such

Stefan and Wanda bared their hearts to each other, revealing everything honestly.Wanda had cried uncontrollably by the sea side, and each tear that fell from her face felt like a hit to Stefan's heart."I didn't betray you. It was your parents who told me to marry him. They said that it was the only way to make you completely give up. I shouldn't have tried to look for you… Just leave me," Wanda said.Stefan was furious when he heard that, but what he felt even more was heartache for her.He held Wanda incredibly tight, completely unwilling to let her go.Stefan had been with many women before, but the first was always the most unforgettable.Wanda was his first.Wanda hadn't gotten a divorce, and he was still with Millie. So, the two of them couldn't be together openly.But Stefan's trips abroad became more frequent. His parents had passed away, and Agnes was in poor health. Millie was completely unaware as well.Nothing could stop him from pursuing his love.Later on, Agne

Just as Stefan was about to knock on the door, he heard Agnes' words from inside. His whole body stiffened as his hand froze in mid-air."Mrs. Leach Senior, it's all in the past now," Millie softly said.Agnes sighed. "How unfortunate for the Leach family. Now, the family will never rid itself of Wanda. You don't know this, but her family used to be on par with the Leach family. However, her parents were greedy and unscrupulous. "They went down the wrong path, which eventually led to their assets being seized by the government. Her parents couldn't bear the thought of going to prison and ended up jumping to their deaths instead."Agnes continued, "Out of respect for the ties between our families, we extended a helping hand, and Wanda and Stefan had a marriage arrangement. "We felt that the sins of the parents should not pass down to the daughter. So, when we saw that Wanda had inherited her parents' deviousness, we'd hoped to guide her and prevent her from going astray."If thi

Stefan said, "Didn't you once say that you'd be willing to share a husband with Millie if it were ancient times? Didn't you say that since she divorced Pierce, it was the perfect chance for me to make her my mistress? "Wanda, it hasn't even been that long since you said all of that. Have you already forgotten? "If it bothered you, you could have just told me directly. I would have been considerate of your feelings. Instead, you've been acting so hypocritical. You say one thing to my face and do something else behind my back!"Stefan continued, "I admit that I do have some inappropriate thoughts about Millie. She frustrates me to a degree that I've never felt before. But my feelings for her are borne out of competitiveness and my desire to outmatch Pierce. "It's possible that my feelings for her are shallow and that you're the one I've always truly loved. But the way you're acting will only make it harder for me to let go of Millie. It's making my love for you slowly wear thin as

The guests came over from the hall due to the ruckus."Wanda, have you gone mad?" Stefan asked in exasperation."Have I gone mad, or have you gone too far? Look at what I've been through! Yet, you're still sneaking around behind my back. Where's your conscience?" Wanda howled.Stefan's face darkened in utmost displeasure, and Agnes was so furious that she almost fainted."I didn't cheat! A maid accidentally got my clothes wet, so they're being dried. It'll be done soon. Can you stop causing a scene?" Stefan tried to explain.Wanda exclaimed, "You're lying through your teeth without even trying to make it believable now! "Listen here, everyone. The woman Stefan is cheating on me with is Millie Jordan. The two of them had been in a relationship for three years before he married me. Even after Stefan and I got married, they've kept their relationship alive. "This isn't entirely Stefan's fault. It's that shameless vixen, Millie, who's behind everything. She's skilled at playing me

The maid had just caught a glimpse from afar, so she wasn't exactly sure what she'd seen. But since Wanda asked, she had to answer.Wanda felt her blood rush to her head upon hearing that. She knew it!Stefan had stopped her from coming to this family gathering but invited Millie—an outsider! It was obvious that they wanted to create an opportunity for her and Stefan to get closer.Wanda knew that Agnes disliked her. Plus, since she was still recovering and unable to be intimate with Stefan, Agnes had seized the chance to help Millie gain favor. Otherwise, why else would she have shown up right when she was at a disadvantage?It was all a conspiracy—a scheme!As Wanda was fuming with anger, she stormed off in the direction that the maid had indicated. Meanwhile, another maid had already informed Agnes about this. Agnes frowned when she heard that Wanda had arrived. "Where did she go?" she grimly asked."She's heading to the laundry room," the maid reported."I'll go over.

"You're overthinking it. I never once thought about trying to match you two together," Agnes said."Are you sure you never thought about it?" Stefan felt his pride take a hit upon hearing these words.Agnes retorted, "Do you think you're such a catch? If I had a daughter, and she wanted to marry you, I would break both her legs. "What I'm trying to say is that Pierce will be coming over with Millie later. Whatever gripe you two have, I don't care. Just don't cause trouble here.""Pierce? Why is he coming? They're divorced! This is a family gathering! What right does he have to be here?" Stefan's face darkened."Since when does being divorced mean that they can't show up together?" Agnes sharply responded."Of course it does! Divorce means it's over. They're nothing to each other anymore. Why does he keep clinging onto her? Where's his dignity?"Agnes' face turned cold. "Oh, so you do understand that after breaking up, you're not supposed to interfere in their life anymore. Then

Bill was in a tough spot. Handing over the phone did not seem right, but not handing it over was also not an option.Bill hesitated and kept hold of the phone. "Mrs. Leach Senior, Millie can go, but only if Pierce goes with her.""And why is that? What's their relationship now? They're already divorced. Stop dragging things out! Your grandson might have no shame, but Millie does!" Agnes responded."Fine, then neither of them will go!" Bill exclaimed before hanging up the phone abruptly.Millie felt a bit flustered. The two of them were over 150 years old combined, yet they argued like children."So, Grandpa, should I go or not?""Go… Go, but take Pierce with you. I'll have him bring you back here later. I still need you around, Millie.""But we're divorced.""Pierce can still visit Mrs. Leach Senior.""But this is a family gathering.""He's shameless enough to crash it without an invitation."Pierce stood by the door with a dark expression. He seemed to want to blast Bill ou
