What? Mentally ill? How could a perfectly normal person like Pierce develop a dissociative identity disorder? And was this his alternate personality?"Why… why would he suddenly develop a dissociative identity disorder? He was fine all this while.""Back then, he suffered intense trauma when he was kidnapped, and that was when I emerged. At first, I wasn't that strong, but Pierce slowly let his guard down because of you."Pierce suddenly moved closer. His deep eyes were filled with unfathomable shadows as he stared obsessively at her. Millie's face turned pale with fear, and a cold sweat broke out all over her body."Millie, I'm not as easygoing as that useless piece of shit."He suddenly shot her a venomous smile. Then, without warning, he scooped her up and carried her to the bedroom. Once there, he threw her roughly onto the bed. Then, he began taking off his clothes and his belt."What… what are you doing?" Millie asked, scared."Can't you tell? I'm going to fuck you."

Millie was speechless to hear that declaration."In any case, I'm going to take away whatever Pierce holds dear. Hell will freeze over before I let him live a happy life!" Pierce said."Aren't you two the same entity?" Millie asked."The same entity? If our body were a house, he could roam around the living room and three bedrooms, whereas I could only stay in a 40-square-foot bathroom with no space to turn around."He can go out and make friends, while I can't even let others know of my existence. How is that considered the same entity?"The raging resentment in his voice was evident to Millie."What's your name?" she asked."I don't know.""We've got to at least have a way to tell the two of you apart," Millie said in a small voice for fear of angering him. "How about Piercy?""How's that different from Pierce?""What if someone finds out about Pierce's secret when I call you by a different name?""So be it.""Then people would think Pierce is crazy, and the same would go

"No. It's okay. We can take our time learning the business side of things. I won't try to escape anymore. I've decided to stay by your side because I'm completely taken in by your charm. I also think you should take over Pierce's body. He's a total jerk for keeping you hidden for so long!" Millie said.Even though those words struck a chord with Piercy, he wasn't completely clueless. He knew Millie was trying to make him happy by flattering him. Even so, he had to admit those words were indeed pleasant to hear.He couldn't suppress his smile as he nodded satisfactorily. "You're pretty perceptive.""Of course. From now on, I'll stay by your side to help you manage Atkinson Group. We'll make it bigger and better than Pierce ever did so that everyone will see you in a whole new light. Once Pierce finds out you're doing better than him, he might feel so ashamed that he'll never want to emerge again.""I like the sound of that."It would be hard to control Pierce since he could be very

Millie felt chills all over her body, with cold sweat breaking out on her back.Meanwhile, the person slowly stepped out of the dark shadows—it was Piercy slowly walking to stand before her."Are you trying to team up with outsiders to take me down?" he asked coldly.Millie opened her mouth but couldn't say anything. She was so afraid that she couldn't even move."You're pretending to obey my words, but I know what you're plotting deep in your heart. Do you think that I don't dare to kill you?" Pierce raised his hand and choked her neck mercilessly.With that, Millie suddenly felt like she was suffocating. "Let… Let go of me…"She tried to escape, but Piercy had incredible strength.However, Piercy soon fell on one knee, gasping for breath."You're trying to stop me again! Why would you do that when she's not even in love with you?" he yelled furiously.He raised his head and stared at her with his bloodshot eyes."Stop having those twisted thoughts. I won't kill you, but I

Piercy remained silent while Millie was driving. Millie couldn't stop nagging at him throughout the journey, but soon, she turned around and noticed that Piercy was asleep.With that, she stopped talking.As soon as they arrived at the villa, she waited in the car because she couldn't take him out of the car.When she locked her gaze on Piercy's face, she felt he was very different from Pierce even though they had the same face. She wondered if it was because she already knew they were both different people.Why did Pierce become a police officer at that time? He would have been equally as successful if he'd just chosen to be the bad guy instead. Luckily, he didn't take the wrong path and ended up in trouble.She couldn't help but think of Pierce, trapped in Piercy's body. She wondered if Pierce was asleep or still connected to the outside world but couldn't take action for himself. She felt that it must be a torture for him. Unconsciously, she reached out and gently caressed his

After trying out all the rides, both Millie and Piercy were exhausted. So, they decided to sit down and enjoy some ice cream while watching others scream on the rides."Let's go to the zoo tomorrow. How about that?" Millie suggested."Okay," Piercy replied."And on the day after tomorrow, we'll go camping," Millie continued."Alright," Pierce agreed readily.Millie went on, "And then we'll watch a movie…""Whatever you want." Piercy agreed to all her plans, his eyes sparkling with enthusiasm.Since Piercy wasn't rejecting her suggestions, Millie began plotting her next move. She remembered the psychiatrist she had seen the last time and felt he was trustworthy.Moreover, she read that deep hypnosis might help awaken the original personality. Hence, she decided she needed to find a way to make Piercy undergo that.The next day, she brought Piercy to the zoo. But instead of being delighted by the animals, Piercy grew visibly upset."Why are they locked up? They belong in the wi

Piercy muttered under his breath, "Millie, do you… do you know that someone exists just for you? In… In fact, that's why I'm here…"The last part of his sentence was so soft that Millie couldn't hear it clearly.Then, Piercy passed out completely this time.Millie let out a deep breath, feeling slightly relieved. She couldn't empathize with someone so deeply troubled. What she needed was a fully self-aware, rational, and restrained Pierce—someone capable of taking charge.Piercy was like a ticking time bomb. No one could predict when he might explode, and Millie dared not take that risk.She took him back home, and this time, he was truly drunk beyond measure.She called Tobias, knowing she needed help."What did you say? Dissociative identity disorder? Pierce never mentioned anything like that to me," Tobias said incredulously."If even you have no idea about this, then it's very likely no one else knows about this. Pierce has done a really good job hiding this from everyone.

Bruce showed up at the villa shortly after. He had some basic medical knowledge. Upon arriving, he took Millie's temperature, drew blood for testing at the hospital, and prescribed some fever-reducing medication. "This room isn't ideal because it's not well-ventilated. I suggest switching to another one," he advised. "Alright, we'll change rooms," Millie agreed immediately. She had already redecorated one of the guest rooms in preparation. When Bruce saw the guest room, he nodded in approval. "This room is much better. The comfort level of the surroundings can significantly impact the patient's recovery." With that, Millie moved to the guest room. Piercy stayed by her side the entire time with a worried expression etched on his face. Millie couldn't help but notice how much Piercy cared for her. Bruce mixed a bitter concoction for her to drink. Each time she swallowed it, the taste was so awful it made her feel utterly miserable. She complained, "Ugh… This is so

Millie gently closed the box.Suddenly, a single tear slipped down, landing silently on the surface. Only then did Millie realize that she had been crying. She wasn't sure if she was mourning the love she once had or if her tears were for something else entirely.No wonder Pierce had told her to look at it in private. He didn't want to see her shedding tears for another man."It's all in the past. Why send this now?" Millie murmured.She wiped away her tears and picked up her phone. "Tobias, do me a favor. Auction something for me. Donate every last cent of the proceeds to charity. Not a single penny should be kept."She then ended the call and looked at the small box again. At least this way, it would be put to good use…Afterward, Millie headed to the study to check on Pierce. He watched her closely, his deep eyes unreadable.Millie pretended not to notice and said, "You keep working. I'm just going to sketch for a while."Pierce pressed his lips together as if he wante

Millie followed Pierce back home. As she stepped into the familiar space that belonged to just the two of them, her heart felt heavy with emotions.It had been two months since she had last been here, yet everything remained unchanged. Even the wardrobe had been stocked with new seasonal outfits.In those two months, Millie had lost a lot of weight. So, Pierce instructed the kitchen to prepare nourishing meals for her. He was determined to bring her back to full health.Pierce remained bedridden for another half month before he could finally use a cane to walk around a bit. His right leg was still severely injured, and every step sent searing pain through his body, making his face go pale and his forehead damp with cold sweat.Millie couldn't bear to watch him suffer and urged him to rest. But Pierce was stubborn and walked until his legs trembled, and he could no longer stand. Only then would he sit down."Does it hurt?" Millie worriedly asked."It doesn't. I just need to pr

With that, Millie turned around and left without hesitation. But just as she was about to step out of the room, Stefan's voice called out behind her once more, "Millie, I owe you an apology for everything. I never really said it before. It's late… but at least I'm finally saying it. "Millie, I'm sorry. I was the one in the wrong." Stefan's voice was soft, weakened by his injuries. It sounded as though those few words had drained all the strength from his body.Millie's body stiffened, and her hands were tightly clenched into fists at her sides.Stefan was apologizing at long last.Millie wanted to turn around to see if he was truly sincere or if this was just another one of his manipulations. However, she held herself back. Unimportant people didn't deserve even a second glance.Millie didn't say anything. She didn't say whether she would or would not forgive him. She just walked away.Stefan's face turned even paler. He knew that after everything he had done, he would never

Millie didn't want to see Pierce struggling alone, bottling up all his pain like a wounded lion licking its wounds in solitude.Upon hearing her words, Pierce simply tightened his embrace around her. "Mills… I'm scared…""I know. I understand," Millie whispered, gently patting his back."I'm afraid I won't be able to lift you anymore, and I'm afraid I won't be able to run or jump. I'm scared I won't be able to fight the bad guys and protect you anymore." Pierce's voice was soft and barely above a whisper. His sorrow was almost imperceptible, but it could be because he still hadn't fully released his emotions.Millie started, "You still have me. If you can't carry me, then don't. If you can't run fast or jump high, then I'll slow down and walk beside you. I can be your crutch and your support for a lifetime, okay?"And listen, Pierce, you may not be able to fight on the front lines anymore, but you're still there in spirit. We can move to the back lines to provide funding and strat

Pierce didn't tell Millie everything—such as the fact that Stefan had initially wanted to kill him. He spared Stefan some dignity, not wanting Millie to hate him forever.Millie stayed in the hospital to care for Pierce for two days when there was finally a change in Stefan's condition.Before he even regained consciousness, he was already calling her name. Robin anxiously rushed in to find Millie, and she hurried over."The patient's wound has gotten infected, leading to complications. We need to start emergency treatment immediately!""How could this have happened? Wasn't he supposed to wake up?" Robin was beside himself with worry."Millie… Millie…" Even in his fevered delirium, Stefan kept murmuring her name.Millie went over to him. His hand, which had been weakly grasping at the air, finally caught hold of something—her fingers. He clung to her tightly."I'm here, Stefan," she softly uttered.It was as if her words held some kind of magic, as Stefan immediately calmed d

Every word Pierce spoke was firm and impactful. Each word hammered on Stefan's heart mercilessly.Pierce owned up to his mistakes. But what about him? Could he do the same?All this while, he had been shifting the blame to everyone else. He blamed Pierce for stealing Millie away. Then, he blamed Millie for not forgiving him. He even blamed Wanda for seducing him, and the list went on…He had blamed so many people, holding onto their faults while conveniently brushing aside his own. When it came to himself, he always found a way to justify his actions. He completely ignored that he was the true cause of everything.Stefan's grip on Pierce's collar loosened. He took a few steps back in a daze and stumbled on his own feet, causing him to nearly fall to the ground."Those criminals… They're planning to strike again. I agreed to help them," Stefan said."Why are you telling me this?" Pierce responded."She said… She said that if you died, she wouldn't live either." Stefan's voice was

Millie gave Pierce a profound look that contained a myriad of emotions. Pierce could have been selfish and not tell her any of Stefan's good deeds. He could've even stopped her from visiting Stefan. Yet, he didn't do that.After giving Pierce one heavy nod, Millie went over to the adjacent hospital room.Stefan was seriously injured too. His health wasn't as good as Pierce's to begin with, so he still hadn't woken up yet.Robin was in his room, sitting beside him. He kept silently wiping away tears at one side."This is my only nephew. If anything were to happen to him, how would I face his late parents?" Robin mournfully said."Does Grandma know about this?" Millie inquired."I don't have the heart to tell Mom about this. She's old and frail. I don't want her to have a breakdown," Robin replied."I'll keep him company, Robin," Millie said.Robin hesitated for a moment and ultimately nodded. He believed that Stefan would want to see Millie upon waking up. So, Millie staye

"Don't move around. You're still very weak. The doctor said to give you some oatmeal porridge when you wake up. Your digestive system is still quite weak, so you need to eat something that goes down easily."A familiar voice sounded in Millie's ears."G-Grandpa? Why are you here? Where's Pierce? Pierce? Pierce…" After a moment of silence, Millie mumbled, "I forgot… Pierce is dead. Not even his body remains.""What nonsense are you speaking, child? Isn't he lying right beside you?" Bill interjected.Millie visibly froze for a second. Then, she whipped her head around to look. As Bill had said, Pierce was indeed right beside her. Layers of gauze were wrapped around his body, and he seemed to be heavily injured. However, his vital signs were steady, and his heartbeat was rhythmic—he was no longer in a critical condition."Pierce…" Millie tumbled out of bed without a care for the pain in her limbs.Bill quickly went over to support her and combined their beds together."H-How is t

Millie broke down emotionally. She was done with Stefan's constant self-righteous justification. He always blamed everyone else and deemed himself free of any wrongdoing. He acted as if the whole world had wronged him, while he had never wronged anyone.He painted himself as the pitiful and innocent victim, twisting logic to justify everything he did.Millie was done acting her part. She would let things play out however they should. There was no longer anything tying her to this world. If anything happened to Pierce, she wouldn't live either. Just the thought of being imprisoned by Stefan for three years was worse than death.And so, she locked herself in her room and refused to come out. Every day, the housekeepers delivered her meals. She had no appetite but still ate well.Millie also no longer cared whether Stefan had drugged her food or not. If she turned into a mindless lunatic, maybe that would be better than this painful clarity.…Days passed one after another.One
