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

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

"No one will regard you as a mute even if you don't talk," Pierce said irritably.Tobias frowned, not daring to speak anymore.Pierce rushed back to the sanatorium and found Millie dozing by the bed while Bill was sleeping deeply and peacefully.The doctor said, "Ms. Jordan has been by Mr. Atkinson Senior's side constantly, handling everything. She even took over as caregiver when Mr. Atkinson Senior had no appetite. She cooked some appetizing meals for him."Over the years, we've all seen how Ms. Jordan treated Mr. Atkinson Senior with such care. She's genuinely kind-hearted and isn't someone looking to manipulate the situation for personal advantage."The elderly brought here were from powerful families, and their children were too busy to care for them, leaving them lonely. At least they would have some company here.No one in the Atkinson family was looking after Bill, who was stubborn and a loner. After getting into an argument with Donald, Bill moved here on his own accord.

Pierce tried to push Millie away. But just as he managed to push her a little farther away, she quickly snuggled back against him."Hug me..." she mumbled, clinging to him even tighter. Her soft, pliant chest clung to his arm.His breathing became ragged.Pierce had no idea how he made it through the night, desperately holding back his desires. He didn't even dare move.He began to doubt himself, wondering if something was wrong with him, given how calm he was in such a situation.Time seemed to drag on endlessly.The next morning, Millie woke up feeling refreshed and energized—she had slept well through the night. She couldn't help but stretch her arms.Unexpectedly, she touched something firm and warm.She froze for a moment, and her mind went blank as she stared at Pierce. His clothes were crumpled—they were the same ones from yesterday.How did she end up in bed with Pierce?Pierce's eyes snapped open. They were red-rimmed, a clear sign of a restless night. Even his voice

"You're overthinking it. It won't happen," Stefan said."Then take me with you!" Wanda retorted.Stefan considered backing down, but he remembered what Millie had said before. Millie never wanted to see Wanda again. He was quite concerned for Wanda. He was worried about her discovering that she would never be able to have children again, especially when she had not even finished recovering from her miscarriage. How would she handle it?Besides, she should not be going out during her recovery period in the first place. He was just trying to take care of her in every way."I said, stay home and rest!" Stefan's tone turned harsher.That was no longer a discussion but a command.Wanda's face turned pale. She stared at him in disbelief. "Stefan, who are you choosing, me or Millie?"Stefan furrowed his brow as he felt the frustration bubbling inside. "Why are you bringing this up again? Of course, I would choose you!""Is it because I had a miscarriage? Do you despise me? Do you wa

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

"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

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.

Pierce felt like he was drowning, but if someone were to pull him out of the water right now, he would survive.Sometimes, Millie couldn't imagine what would happen if she left Pierce one day because of her disappointment in him. Would he still be able to move on?Pierce survived by clinging onto his sheer will. At first, it was the fixation on avenging his sister's death. But now, it was all because of Millie."What are you going to do now?" she asked."I can't tell you just yet, but I promise it won't take longer than three months."Since Pierce wasn't planning to elaborate, Millie didn't bother to keep on asking either.For the past few days, Millie had been carefully taking care of the wound on Pierce's neck. Even though a small patch of new pink flesh had grown over his wound, it still looked pretty hideous. Fortunately, Pierce always wore suits with collars that were high enough to cover his neck. Millie would always start tearing up whenever she saw his scar.She said,

Pierce was aghast. Mills! His poor Mills!Everyone around Pierce had accused him of committing a crime, but he didn't do it. He had been trying so hard to find out the truth, but in the end, he still got nothing.Did he really betray Millie? Did he really taint himself by sleeping with Sarah?Even if he truly believed that Piercy didn't do anything, he still couldn't find any evidence to prove it.Sarah and Piercy were nowhere to be found either.How was he supposed to prove his innocence? He felt like a trapped beast that couldn't find its way out.Just then, Millie made a subtle twitch. It startled Pierce, and he immediately withdrew his arm around her and pretended to remain unconscious.Millie didn't sleep well at all. The first thing she did after waking up was to check on Pierce. The monitor showed that Pierce's heart was racing.She then brought out a warm towel and gently wiped his face.She began, "Your hair has grown so much longer, but you didn't even properly

Millie rushed forward and saw the disconcerting look in Pierce's eyes.Pierce hadn't rested for two days, so his nerves were stretched to their absolute limit. His eyes were completely bloodshot too.The moment he saw Millie, he grabbed her like he was a drowning man who finally got his hands on a life buoy. His large hands clamped down on her arm with such force that it felt like he was going to crush her bones.Pierce howled, "Tell him to come out, please! He listens to you. Ask him to come out, Millie. I don't care if he takes over this body. I just need him to tell me the truth! Did I betray you? Did I mess around with another woman? I'm begging you…""Pierce, calm down please." Millie tried to soothe him."How can I calm down? I want to be with you, but if I really did betray you, then at least let me die knowing the truth! What am I supposed to do now? How long does he plan to torture me?"Pierce shoved Millie aside, frantically searching around the room. He even lunged at

Samantha looked at Stefan in disbelief. "You still have feelings for Millie… Is that what you're saying?""What else? Do you expect me to have feelings for you? As long as you stay in your place, I won't make things too difficult for you. But don't overestimate yourself," Stefan sternly warned."You… You weren't like this before! I'll abort this child and make you regret it for the rest of your life! I'll really do it—try me!" Samantha cried.Stefan didn't bother mincing his words. "Do you think you can threaten me? There are plenty of women who want to have my child. Who do you think you are? If you don't give birth, Wanda will probably be thrilled. "The Atkinson family doesn't want you anymore. So, you're no longer some rich heiress. You're just Betty Miller now. If you leave me, who else can you rely on?"Ever since Samantha got pregnant, Stefan's goal had already been achieved. He didn't even care about his own child. He was happy to let Samantha and Wanda fight to the death,

For the next two days, Millie still didn't see Pierce.During that time, she continued visiting the hospital every other day to check on Stefan's condition. There were signs of improvement, but because of the sulfuric acid burns and the severity of the wounds, recovery would not be a quick process.Since they didn't have much to talk about, Millie simply read to him to help pass the time."I'll come back the day after tomorrow," she softly said, setting the book down.Stefan nodded, unsure whether he should keep holding on or let her go for good.Just as Millie reached the door, he couldn't help but call out to her again, "Do you regret it?""Regret what?" Millie turned back to look at him."Regret… being with me."Millie replied, "I do. But people don't have the ability to see the future. So, some mistakes are worth experiencing because at the very least, they teach us lessons. "I've learned to approach love with more clarity now. I will love myself first before loving any

Stefan said, "I'll take good care of myself…" Then, he suddenly started coughing. At this point, he couldn't tell whether the pain in his body was worse or if his heart hurt more.Millie panicked. If Stefan's condition worsened, how would she explain things to Agnes? So, she quickly got Stefan a glass of water and helped him take a sip. Only then did he finally manage to catch his breath.Millie felt completely useless sitting there. No matter what they talked about, it felt inappropriate. Her presence might even be making things harder for him."How about I turn on the TV for you? It'll help pass the time." Millie suggested."You don't need to do anything. Just stay here with me quietly," Stefan said."Alright then." So, Millie picked up a book and began reading to him.Her voice was as sweet as a songbird's. However, Stefan couldn't focus on anything she was reading—the only thing he saw was her delicate face.Time ticked by slowly.Meanwhile, Pierce stood outside the

That night, Millie couldn't sleep at all. She tossed and turned, unable to quiet her thoughts.When morning finally arrived, she immediately got up, washed up, and packed her things to head to the hospital. Pierce saw how anxious she was but said nothing. He simply accompanied her to the hospital without a word.Once Millie got there, she took over looking after Stefan from Agnes and Robin. She urged them to go home, wash up, and get some rest."Pierce and I are here. We'll take good care of him," Millie said reassuringly."Alright. I'll leave Stefan in your care then," Agnes replied.Only then did she finally leave, walking away with slow, heavy steps.After that, Millie changed into sterile clothing and entered the ward.Stefan looked weak, but his spirits seemed a little better. When he saw Millie, he even forced a smile and greeted, "You're here.""Does your wound hurt?" Millie asked in concern."No, not really. I have painkillers and a PCA pump, so I barely feel anythin

In the end, she and Stefan were simply not meant to be. The distance between them only grew wider as life went on. He should never have saved her.Pierce held Millie close. "Don't overthink it. The doctors are still working on him. We'll know once they come out. He's tough. He'll be fine.""Pierce, why did he have to do that? My heart feels so heavy." Millie wept."I know, I know." Pierce gently patted her back. He understood exactly how she felt.He wasn't afraid of Stefan scheming against him, but what worried him more was that Stefan would suddenly change and sacrifice himself to make amends for his past mistakes.If he had remained cruel, Millie could have hated him completely. But now, by repaying his debts bit by bit, he had placed Millie in an impossible position. She couldn't love him, but she also couldn't bring herself to hate him.Soon, Agnes and Robin arrived too.Agnes had aged significantly in the recent months, and she seemed to be in noticeably weaker spirits as

"Stefan, are you okay? Hold on! I'll take you to the hospital right away," Millie urgently said."Are… Are you hurt anywhere?" Stefan asked in a trembling voice, forcing himself to endure the pain.Even at a time like this, he was still worried about her."I'm okay… I-I'm fine," Millie replied with a slight stutter."That's good." Stefan breathed a sigh of relief.Millie glanced at the rotting, festering wound on his back and couldn't help but anxiously tear up. She didn't wait for Pierce and immediately hailed a cab.Meanwhile, the surrounding crowd had subdued the attacker—it turned out to be the disgruntled Carlos who had been fired. Even as he was restrained, he kept screaming that he wanted to kill Millie and make Pierce regret it for the rest of his life.As the commotion went on, Millie helped Stefan into the car. His back was so badly wounded that he couldn't lean against the seat. His face was as pale as a sheet of paper, and his entire body was drenched in cold sweat
