Wanda knew she couldn't delay dealing with her situation any longer. The longer the dead fetus remained in her womb, the greater the harm it would cause.

She returned to Leach Manor and kept an eye on the time.

Stefan should be back around this time. So, Wanda deliberately picked up her phone and pretended to make a call.

She said into the phone, "Watch over Millie's studio and make sure her business isn't doing too badly. Don't let her know it was my idea. I'll reimburse all your expenses…"

After Wanda was done uttering her staged instructions, she put down the phone. When she turned around, she pretended to be startled to see Stefan standing there.

"Stefan? Oh, you scared me! Why didn't you say something when you came in?" Wanda asked with a playful pout.

"Are you helping Millie?" he asked, frowning.

"Yes. Although she and I don't get along, I don't think this incident is her fault. It was her staff cutting corners and substituting her products with inferior ones. I admire he

    Millie and Celia were still busy, so Millie ordered takeout for both of them."Celia, stop for now and take a break," Millie said."If only Mr. Saville were here, we could relax a little," Celia responded.Upon hearing this, Millie glanced toward Julian's office. She felt a little melancholic as she stared at the empty office. It seemed like they wouldn't even be able to remain friends in the future.Just then, Celia gasped. "Mrs. Leach?"Millie froze. What was Wanda doing here?Her business was open to everyone, and she couldn't stop Wanda from coming in."What are you here for?" Millie asked warily."I'm here to take you to see Stefan. I'll be there tonight as well," Wanda said with a smile.Millie was immediately confused. She had thought Stefan had invited her alone, but it turned out Wanda would also be there."I'm very busy and don't have time," Millie said dismissively.Wanda continued, "I've already spoken to Stefan. If this were ancient times when polygamy wasn't fr

    Even though Millie knew this was Wanda's trap, a life was at stake. She couldn't afford to think too much about it now.She quickly dialed 911. When the ambulance arrived and Wanda was carried away, a large pool of blood was left on the ground. Millie stared at the blood, her heart pounding rapidly. "How… How could someone use their own child just to drag another person through the mud?"Wanda was pregnant with Stefan's first child. She needed this baby and would never harm it just to set someone up. Because of this, Millie had always been wary when dealing with Wanda. So far, Wanda had never shown any intention of using her baby to set her up.But this time… Was it an accidental fall? Or was there something more to it?"Don't worry, Ms. Jordan… I saw everything clearly. You didn't push her. She… She broke free from you and deliberately fell to the ground," Celia stammered, clearly shaken as well."What about the surveillance cameras?" Millie responded.She reviewed the securit

    "Celia?" Millie couldn't believe that those words had come out of Celia's mouth.Celia had worked for her for over three years. During this time, Millie had never mistreated her.However, Celia openly betrayed her right at this crucial moment. She had turned against Millie and made accusatory claims that were contrary to what she'd said back in the studio."You're with Wanda." Only now did Millie realize the truth.Celia refuted her with tears streaming down her face, "I'm not associated with Mrs. Leach in any way, Ms. Jordan. I simply couldn't go against my conscience. I couldn't stand by and watch you do such terrible things.""Why would you frame me…" Millie's emotions flared as she stepped forward to confront Celia.But before she could get close, Stefan intervened and grabbed her wrist. He glared at her with a complicated expression and spat, "You're a fine piece of work, Millie! How could you lay a hand on a pregnant woman? My child is dead now! Are you happy? "Let me tel

    Stefan stormed over to the doctor and grabbed him by the collar. He demanded, "What did you just say? Say it again!"The doctor trembled in fear and repeated, "Mrs. Leach has lost the ability to conceive ever again. I'm sorry, but we had to do it to save her life…"The medical team had no other choice back in the operating theater. If they hadn't done that, Wanda might not have made it.Stefan clenched his fists, ready to throw a punch. But his fist hovered in midair, tightening and loosening repeatedly. However, the blow never landed.Finally, he let his hand drop weakly and uttered, "Leave."The doctor left, and Stefan walked over to Wanda. His steps were heavy, and his gaze was filled with conflicting emotions. He had imagined a lifetime with Wanda. They would build a family and raise their children together.But now, his child was gone, and Wanda could no longer conceive. Who would inherit his legacy in the future? He needed an heir.At that moment, he felt like killing Mill

    The two men went to a café downstairs, where Pierce handed Stefan a file.Six months ago, Wanda approached Celia with the intention of poaching her. Millie's studio was struggling at that time, and most of her employees had already been poached. Celia, however, had remained loyal and stayed.Logically speaking, Celia and Wanda shouldn't have had any further contact after that. But the weird thing was that the two had communicated several times afterward."They'd been in contact, alright. But what does that prove? What are you trying to say?" Stefan questioned dismissively, unimpressed by this finding."Just yesterday, Wanda contacted Celia. The content of their conversation was erased. It'll take the tech team a few days to recover it. But if you're willing to wait, I'll give you a satisfactory answer soon," Pierce elaborated.Stefan frowned deeply and slammed the table before standing up in anger. "Are you saying that Wanda sacrificed our child just to frame Millie? And you're cl

    Until there was sufficient evidence to prove Millie's innocence, being held at the police station was actually a form of protection for her. She was kept in a solitary detention cell, and Pierce used his connections to ensure she had no contact with others.He had seen people kept in detention for years because no one bailed them out or due to the case being unsolvable. Those poor people were left in limbo. At first, they remained hopeful. But over time, their spirits were completely crushed.Pierce didn't want Millie to experience such a dark world.While Millie was there, Stefan's rage was at least somewhat appeased. He wouldn't take more drastic or extreme actions against her.Pierce went to visit her, but to his surprise, Millie refused to see him. Even so, he didn't let that stop him.The door to her single cell opened. She thought it was just a routine check by a female officer, but it turned out to be Pierce."Didn't I say I didn't want to see you?" Millie asked in annoyan

    Millie refused Pierce immediately.Pierce pressed his lips together and said nothing further. After spending some time with her, he left to attend to matters at Atkinson Group.Millie initially found the pace of time in the detention cell hard to bear. But with the items Pierce had sent her, it became easier for her to pass the time.As Pierce was worried that the bed was too hard, he had even arranged for an extra mattress and a couch to be sent to her cell.Millie looked around the room filled with items and fell into deep thought.She called over a female officer, whose name was Karen Oakley. "These things aren't allowed here. Why did you let him send them in?""It was the Commissioner's decision. You're listed as Officer Atkinson's family member, so we can offer some accommodations as we see fit. He really cares about you!" The officer's eyes sparkled as she spoke.After all, who wouldn't admire someone as outstanding as Pierce?"If that's the case, please remove all these.

    The next morning, Millie woke up to find that Pierce had already left. The warmth on the bed lingered, suggesting he hadn't been gone for long.Karen arrived with breakfast, smiling at Millie in a way that made her scalp tingle.With narrowed eyes, Millie asked, "Why… Why are you smiling like that?""Last night, you and Officer Atkinson…""Don't overthink it! Nothing happened between us!""Huh? Nothing happened last night? We even told him we turned off the surveillance cameras so he wouldn't have to worry!" Karen exclaimed."What? You went that far?" Millie was stunned."That's not the point. Are you serious that nothing happened? Is Officer Atkinson… still capable in that department?" Karen was now criticizing Pierce with her hands on her hips. In fact, she looked genuinely annoyed.Millie was exasperated and hurriedly pushed her out of the cell."By the way, you'll be meeting with the victim later," Karen said before leaving.Millie had long known that she would eventual

    Nero knew he would die for sure, but he didn't want to die for some fabricated accusations. It turned out Pierce was fuming because he thought that Nero laid his hand on Millie.Pierce still had more to say, but Nero couldn't hold on any longer.His wounds were bleeding profusely. They hurt so much that he felt completely numb. At last, he couldn't handle the pain anymore.Nero blacked out, completely losing consciousness. Pierce's brows pulled together in a deep frown. He was very confused. Judging from Nero's reaction just now, he didn't seem like he was lying. Everyone knew that Millie was Pierce's wife. Thus, Nero should have known what he did wrong when he was brought here, but he still asked for the reason so he wouldn't die in confusion. Something felt off in this situation. "Find a way to wake him up. He hasn't finished what he was saying yet," Pierce said.Tobias hastily brought some chicken soup over, helping Nero to regain consciousness. Finally, Nero woke up

    Nero was also a Caledynian. He was called "Nero" because he was slightly more tanned than the others.Both Nero and William worked in the Golden Triangle area. They mostly made smuggling trades in Solandra's black market, especially in places like Moanelay and Lyza. "Who are you, and why did you take me here?" Nero asked.If the police had arrested Nero, he would have been sent away to be interrogated. So, why was he secretly brought here?"You're here, Pierce," Tobias said, ignoring Nero. He walked over to Pierce when he heard the footsteps. Nero was flabbergasted the moment he saw Pierce. "You… You're Pierce Atkinson?"Pierce was a legendary customs officer with a lengthy list of achievements at a young age. Besides, he had arrested a large number of underground dealers, including Nero's accomplices.People like Nero swore an oath to kill Pierce if they ever came across him whenever they were out there dealing in the black market. Everyone was desperate to kill him to as

    Pierce asked Millie that question with determination.Millie fell silent. Technically, she should treat Pierce and Stefan similarly and steer clear of Pierce.But her heart always swayed when it came to Pierce for some reason. It was probably because Pierce was always there for her whenever she had a hard time. Whether it was before or after their marriage, he never disappointed her. He wasn't like Stefan, who kept breaking her heart to the extent that she had gotten used to it. Stefan was constantly deliberating the pros and cons and picking the side that benefited him the most. To him, Millie was always the one who could be discarded as the other option.On the contrary, Pierce had never made her his second option. There was an awkward silence in the room. Millie didn't know how to respond to Pierce's question. As she was pondering her answer, she saw the corner of Bill's eye twitch. Was he regaining consciousness now?"Grandpa… Grandpa's eyes twitched just now," she sa

    "Why are you here?" Pierce asked, despite knowing the answer."Grandpa must have been confused and called me in his disoriented state. Is he doing alright now?" Millie asked urgently. "I don't know what's going on inside." Pierce shook his head. "They're still performing emergency treatment on him. But the doctor did mention that his condition was quite severe this time. Grandpa might not be able to…" He drifted off, not finishing the rest of his sentence.Millie staggered on her feet, almost falling to the ground. She knew it was only a matter of time before Bill would have to say goodbye to the world, but she didn't expect it to be so soon. It had barely been a year!Bill had always looked after her. Ever since she married Pierce, Bill treated Millie even better than before. Despite the gossip about her, Bill always empathized with her, feeling her pain as if it were his own.Although she didn't have blood ties to Bill or Agnes, they still showed her the utmost love and c

    Pierce said, "Yes, I wanted to marry her. So, the fact that you were pretending to be sick wasn't really a threat to me. You just provided me with a valid reason to do so."He continued, "I've transferred you to a different sanatorium these three years instead of letting you stay alone because of her too.""I see. No wonder you insisted that I stay here despite how much I dislike Mrs. Leach Senior. You're certain I'd see Millie here often and like her, huh?" Bill asked in curiosity."Not really."Pierce hadn't expected things to turn out this way. All he wanted was to see Millie more often. After finding out that Millie was taking care of Agnes in this sanatorium, he decided to visit Bill frequently to increase his chances of seeing her.Even a quick glance was more than enough for him. "Well, why did you agree to a divorce then? I don't understand at all. You care about her so much," Bill said.Bill knew that they were going to get a divorce. In fact, he wanted to stop them.

    "Mrs. Leach Senior, I won't go. After all, it's your family gathering. How about I treat you to dinner alone some other time?" Millie suggested."You're part of my family too," Agnes insisted."I know you care about me, but Stefan is married to Wanda. If I attend, how do you think Wanda will feel? I don't want to stir up unnecessary trouble," Millie replied.She wasn't afraid of Wanda, but she had no desire to see her again. Wanda had already lost everything, especially after losing the baby. Her real goal wasn't to fight Millie to the bitter end—it was to secure Stefan's affection.Unfortunately, she had lost the ability to conceive children. The Leach family's vast fortune would eventually require an heir. No matter how much Stefan loved her, Wanda was destined to be abandoned.Millie found herself pitying Wanda. As always, her schemes had spectacularly backfired against herself."But I invited several exceptional young men to meet you. It's a chance for you to meet potential s

    "Stefan, I've already ended up this way, yet you're still going to see your ex?" Wanda asked as tears streamed down her face."Wanda, it's not what you think. Grandma is back and wants to host a family gathering. She wanted Millie to come as well," Stefan explained."Family gathering? And you're inviting an outsider?""Wanda, Millie was with me for three years. When Grandma was ill, it was Millie who took care of her and kept her company."Wanda scoffed. "I could've done that too. Do you think I didn't want to? Why is my life so miserable? My family went bankrupt, and before my parents passed, they left me with your family. Your parents looked down on me, so they sent me overseas and married me off to an abusive drunkard!"My life after marriage was hell on Earth. It was a nightmare! Your family owes me more than anything Millie ever did for you in those three years. I am your wife now, and yet your grandmother is still thinking about someone else?"Is it because your grandmothe

    Stefan felt his stomach churn violently. The smell alone was nauseating, and all Wanda had done was add a pinch of salt for flavor. How could she possibly eat the placenta stew with an overpowering fishy smell?Wanda ate happily, enjoying every bite. For a moment, Stefan had an unsettling thought—it didn't seem like she was eating a placenta, but a child.He waited until she finished before heading downstairs, acting as if nothing had happened."I'm leaving now," he said calmly."Wait, Stefan," Wanda said, stopping him."Is there anything else?""Are you really just going to forget about the incident? If Millie hadn't argued with me and pushed me, the accident wouldn't have happened. Even if she wasn't the mastermind, she should still bear some responsibility. "She's an accomplice to killing our child, Stefan. Are you really not going to seek justice for our baby?" Wanda asked while shedding a few tears. Her crying made her act look sincere and convincing.When it came to cryi

    Stefan and Millie would have probably ended up getting married, right? Since Stefan had already treated Millie as a substitute, and she was even better than the original, why couldn't they just continue like this forever?Stefan suddenly recalled the first time he met Millie. She was dressed in revealing clothes, trembling like a helpless lamb awaiting to be slaughtered. When he first saw her, he was captivated—not only because she resembled Wanda so closely but also because she was genuinely beautiful—more beautiful than Wanda, and she was stunning. He couldn't help but feel empathy for her.In the beginning, he hadn't thought much of it. Millie was just a substitute, a cure for the heartache Wanda had left behind. But over time, Millie proved herself. She was thoughtful, considerate, and kind. Her presence gradually eased the pain left by his breakup with Wanda.In reality, Stefan had broken up with Wanda years ago and spent several years living recklessly. Meeting Millie agai
