Wanda felt aggrieved. She had bribed the media, but she'd never ordered anyone to commit murder. She hadn't gone that far. After all, Millie had been keeping a low profile and was out of the public eye. Even if Wanda had wanted to act, there had been no opportunity for her to do so.Yet, Millie somehow went out and was ambushed by rabid people who had gotten too carried away with their hate for her.When Wanda learned that Millie was hospitalized due to a grave injury and was possibly on the brink of death, she'd secretly prayed for her demise every day."Stefan, don't listen to her nonsense! I didn't order anyone to kill her. You can look into it and judge for yourself!" Wanda cried."Then explain this!" Stefan threw the evidence at her. Wanda flipped through the pages, her face growing paler with each one. Pierce's investigation had been meticulous. Even though Wanda had used someone else's identity to bribe the media, it hadn't been enough to cover her tracks.As she con

He called for Mark, intending to have him forcibly escort Millie out."Ms. Jordan, please come with me," Mark said.But Millie refused to leave. When Mark forcefully grabbed her, her wound reopened as she struggled against his grip. The sudden pain made her face turn ghostly pale, and tears threatened to spill from her eyes.Mark instantly froze, afraid to touch her again. "S-She's still injured, Mr. Leach. I can't…"Stefan felt a sharp pang in his chest. After all, Millie had once saved his life."You should go home and rest with that injury. Stop wandering around. This matter ends here. I'll make sure you won't see Wanda again. Don't be unreasonable. When I say this ends here, it ends here," he firmly said."And if I insist on pursuing this?" Millie countered."Millie!" Stefan's eyes reddened in frustration. "Are you not going to stop until you see me completely ruined? Is that what you want?" His voice shook as he gritted his teeth. Why did she have to trample on his prid

Wanda's smile froze on her face.The wound on Millie's chest was unmistakably real. It was a ragged, gaping hole that looked like the result of multiple stabs. Blood gushed out, soaking the bandages and Millie's torn clothes. The stitches had completely burst due to Wanda's reckless actions. Millie's face turned deathly pale as pain wracked her body."This can't be real! How could you risk your own life like this?" Wanda cried out, unable to believe her eyes.In a desperate bid to prove her theory, she pressed her fingers against the wound. Instantly, she felt the sticky warmth of fresh blood on her fingertips."There must be a blood bag. Where is it hidden? This has to be special effects, right?" Wanda's voice grew shrill, her disbelief mounting.She couldn't comprehend how Millie had made the wound look so realistic. It was exactly the same as a real wound! This was impossible!Millie couldn't stand the excruciating pain—her body was quickly reaching its limit. She had

Pierce icily snapped, "What right do you have to be concerned about her? She's in this state because of you. You're not blameless.""I know. This time, I won't let Wanda off so easily," Stefan replied in a quiet voice."This time?" Pierce stepped closer, his imposing presence forcing Stefan to instinctively step back. "I'm not just talking about this time. I'm talking about everything you've done to her over the years! You stripped her of her confidence and made her fear love itself. "She's so hesitant and afraid of being hurt again—so much so that she can't fully commit to anyone. She's afraid that at the end of the day, she'll have nothing and no one. You've made her terrified of taking risks in love! You were the one who wronged her, yet I have to suffer all the consequences."She bent over backward for you, smoothed her edges, and lost herself in trying to revolve around your world. She sacrificed so much for you—how dare you betray her? She could have accepted any reason for

Robin and Rachel found themselves speechless.They had expected a lengthy argument—perhaps even a confrontation. But to their surprise, Stefan had made up his mind to divorce Wanda.Agnes took the divorce agreement from Stefan and glanced through it. She noticed that he had allocated a generous portion of his assets to Wanda. It was enough for her to live comfortably after getting divorced.Given that their prenuptial agreement stated that Wanda was entitled to nothing in the event of a divorce, this was an act of goodwill on Stefan's part. He was either doing this for the sake of the Leach family's reputation or to simply give himself peace of mind.Thus, Agnes refrained from commenting further. Instead, she sternly advised, "Since you've decided on this, don't let her sweet talk sway you into changing your mind.""Don't worry. It's for real this time. I'm cutting all ties with her," Stefan said with an air of finality."Good. Handle this yourself. We won't comment further,"

After writing the long letter in blood, Wanda attempted to commit suicide by overdosing on sleeping pills.She was aware that the drug she took would induce vomiting as a safeguard when consumed in large amounts. As long as one of the maids noticed and rushed her to the hospital, she wouldn't actually die.Millie had gambled with her life, so Wanda decided to take a similar risk. After swallowing most of the pills, she scattered the remaining ones on the floor to ensure her act was unmistakable.Yet, fear coursed through her. She was scared that she might go too far and accidentally kill herself for real. But she had no other options left.After a while, her body reacted. Her stomach churned violently and painfully, and cold sweat soaked her face as she turned ghostly pale. Foamy bile then surged up her throat as she dry-heaved and convulsed.The sensation was unbearable—there was burning pain in her stomach accompanied by dizziness and weakness.Wanda deliberately rolled off t

Agnes was already deeply disappointed in Stefan, so she didn't really care how he chose to handle the matter. Even if he decided not to divorce Wanda, she wouldn't be surprised."I'm sorry, Grandma. I know I hurt you deeply over the past few weeks," Stefan apologetically said. "We are family and bound by blood. Even if you hurt me, we can always patch things up and fall back on our familial ties. But what about those who don't share our blood? When they've been hurt, it stays that way. Don't expect unconditional forgiveness from them."Agnes' words seemed to carry a deeper meaning.Stefan opened his mouth to say something, but no words came out. Agnes was right—Millie wouldn't forgive him unconditionally.After ending the call, Stefan didn't visit Wanda. Instead, he instructed others to care for her.Wanda, on the other hand, hoped to see him, as she felt increasingly uneasy. She had caused a massive scene, and Stefan had been genuinely distressed when bringing her to the ho

"Alright." Pierce agreed as he pulled Millie into a deep embrace. He rested his chin gently in the crook of her neck and greedily breathed in her soothing fragrance. Being close to her calmed him and cleared his mind so that he could think rationally.Whenever he found himself on the brink of going down the wrong path, all he had to do was think about Millie. Whenever he imagined what she would do, it helped him to suppress the evil thoughts brewing inside him."I've made a public announcement about calling off my engagement with Charlotte. No one can gossip and spread rumors about you anymore," Pierce said."That's great. I'm feeling a little hungry. I'll go to the kitchen to grab something to eat," Millie replied, lazily stretching.She was confident that Pierce wouldn't let her suffer unjustly, so she trusted him to handle everything. However, as she left, she forgot to take her phone.Pierce was on a call with Tobias when Millie's phone screen lit up with an incoming call.

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

Yulia's words had tainted Pierce's ears. Since that was the case, he would find a way to make sure she could never speak again.If it had been the Pierce of the past—the one who worked as an anti-smuggling officer—he would never have considered such an option. But now that he was freed from the constraints of that identity, there were some matters that he no longer had to be so cautious about.He was never a purely kind person. His heart was far darker and more calculating than most could imagine. He could be a ruthless executioner without a shred of hesitation, or he could appear as an untouchable, noble paragon of benevolence.After resolving the situation with Yulia, Isabella felt relieved and invited Millie out for drinks.Millie was glad to hang out with her. Sharon had taken Tristan abroad, so she no longer had a drinking buddy."You have no idea how utterly disgusting that Yulia made me feel. It was like someone had forced a mouthful of dirt down my throat!" Isabella comp
I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 592
Yulia locked herself in her room. She was curled up on the bed, disheveled and unkempt.Her phone screen was lit as she scrolled through the comments under Pierce's latest Twitter post—all of them were insults directed at her. She had completely lost herself in obsession."I did nothing wrong! Why should I apologize? Pierce is the heartless one! He betrayed me! Even as a woman, I have more courage than he does! Mom, I want to appeal my case. I want to sue him a second time. That lawyer was useless…"Helena had finally reached her breaking point and delivered a heavy slap across Yulia's face. Yulia's head snapped to the side as a clear handprint formed on her cheek."When will you wake up? Everyone can see that Pierce never liked you! In fact, if you hadn't done all those ridiculous things, he wouldn't even know who you were! How long are you going to deceive yourself? You're completely delusional!" Helena roared.Then, she added, "And even if… even if something had actually happ

Yulia wept and continued to blabber in her livestream. "If you don't love me, then why did you stop others from hurting me and take me to the hospital? If you don't love me, why did you pay for my medical expenses?"Can you swear that you didn't feel even a tiny bit of emotion when we locked eyes in front of that bakery? I understand that marriages in wealthy families are complicated and involve many parties' interests, where one small move can set off a chain reaction. "I was so considerate of your predicament, but what did you do to me? To protect yourself, you threw me under the bus. Pierce Atkinson, is this fair to me?"After saying all that, she burst into tears, sobbing uncontrollably. Meanwhile, viewers in the livestream showered her with virtual gifts, comforting her and telling her not to cry, claiming their hearts ached for her.Millie came across her livestream as well. The platform's algorithm had pushed it to her feed, so there was no avoiding seeing it.She was sp

"No! Mr. Atkinson, you can't do this! I did it for you!" Carlos cried."I don't know Yulia personally, nor did I secretly ask you to take care of her. No wonder she kept misinterpreting my intentions and tried to get close to me. You were part of the reason that she's delusional," Pierce said with a scoff.Yulia must have assumed that all the special treatment Carlos had given her was Pierce's doing. Naturally, she would have started to fantasize.Pierce also reflected on himself. He never should have sympathized with her or helped her in the first place. When he saw her, he had been reminded of Millie from years ago and had wanted to make up for his inability to help her back then in some small way. Never did he expect that it would cause so much trouble for him.Whatever compensation John decided to ask from Yulia was none of his business too.After that, Pierce sent Carlos away and began addressing the false rumors spreading online."Well, well. You seem to have a lot of rom
I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 589
Yulia believed that Pierce must have felt the same way. Since fate had brought them together, how could she possibly give up?Now that Pierce had paid for her hospital stay, she felt she should recover properly and not waste his kindness.…Meanwhile, back at Atkinson Group, Tobias never mentioned the matter to Pierce. The situation had been urgent when Yulia was hospitalized, and anyone would have covered the cost in such circumstances. After all, a life was at stake.Tobias reported, "Mr. Atkinson, the former Head of Sales, Carlos Reyes, keeps asking to see you. The receptionist has alerted me about this multiple times. He said he needs to see you for something important. Do you want to meet him?""Is he the one Mills fired?" Pierce coolly looked up."Yes," Tobias replied."Useless trash like him isn't worth my time," Pierce indifferently responded. After all, anyone who crossed Millie had also crossed him.So, Tobias immediately informed Carlos that if he ever came again, he
I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 588
Yulia kept waiting for an opportunity, but the two times she saw Pierce, he was with Millie. The sight of this drove her mad with jealousy. How she wished she could tear Millie apart. If it weren't for her, she wouldn't be struggling just to get into Atkinson Group now.And so, Yulia obsessively staked out the parking lot every day like a madwoman. As a result, she had grown noticeably thinner. Sometimes, she saw Tobias. However, she didn't approach him. But finally, after nearly a week, she found her chance.Pierce had arrived alone with no one in the passenger seat. Just as he got out of the car, a shadow flitted into his peripheral view. As a former police officer, his reflexes were sharp. He immediately subdued the person with a grappling move."Ow… Ouch! It hurts…" Yulia pitifully whimpered.Pierce hadn't seen Yulia's face yet. He only realized that it was a woman and that she posed no real threat. So, he released his grip.However, upon realizing that it was Yulia, he
