Chapter 502

Author: Feminine Blade
"What's your plan, then? They're definitely close. After all, she's been his adoptive sister for decades. Pierce also treats her like a real sister. Even if he keeps a distance from her after being with you, he'd still be concerned about her whenever she falls sick," Sharon said.

Upon hearing this, Millie let out a long sigh.

This was what troubled her the most.

Moreover, she could not send Samantha away this time since the Atkinson family was the one who deliberately made her stay.

Even if Millie were able to send Samantha back this time, she would only come back again. She might even start some trouble.

It was not like she could force Samantha to get married off to someone. After all, marriage was a significant matter.

"I don't feel like going back tonight. I'll just stay here." Millie walked over to the sofa and laid down, pretending to be dead.

She didn't answer any of Pierce's many calls. She had only sent him a text message telling him that she would be accompanying Sharon

    "I only see you as my sister. There'll never be anything more than that between us. I'm just going to be very clear with you—Millie's the only person I like. "Wait… to be precise, Millie's the only one I love," Pierce said.When Samantha heard this, her face became as pale as a ghost. Her lips trembled, and she could not breathe.Her tears kept falling, and she felt extremely miserable.However, Pierce simply watched on without comforting her at all.Pierce then said, "I could never understand why you disliked Millie, but I get it now. You're not protective of me like a sister would of a brother. It was something else."I won't allow this kind of relationship between us. Since I'm going to spend the rest of my life with Millie, I'd like to give her a sense of security, and you're jeopardizing that."Sammy, if you're willing to be just a sister to me, you can still keep your title as the beloved daughter and heiress of the Atkinson family. "As an elder brother, I'll protect an

    Pierce was more than willing to put his status aside for Millie's sake. So, he immediately baked a cake in the company cafeteria. Naturally, some staff saw him doing it. "Mr. Atkinson is carrying some flour and butter with him. What is he doing with them?""Wait a minute. Did he just go to the kitchen? Dear Lord, is he going to make something in the kitchen with his own hands?"Some of the staff were quite close to Tobias, and they couldn't resist springing the question on him. "What is Mr. Atkinson doing?"Tobias replied, "Well. Mr. Atkinson just upset Mrs. Atkinson. So, he's making strawberry cake, her favorite dessert, as a way of apology.""Jeezums. He really dotes on her.""Get comfortable. You're going to see this frequently," Tobias said in a slightly sentimental tone. He had gotten used to this by now.Meanwhile, Millie hadn't eaten anything for the whole day. But surprisingly, other than feeling a little lethargic, she wasn't even peckish.She lazily laid on the c

    "Son of a bitch!" the street thug cursed. He was about to hit Samantha, but the bar manager stopped him. "Are you trying to get yourself killed? This lady here is the heiress to the Atkinson family. She is Pierce Atkinson's younger sister. Think before you act!"The street thug immediately lost his courage when he heard what the bar manager said. Samantha heard what he said too, but it sounded very sarcastic and hurtful to her. After all, if she continued to antagonize Millie, she would be nothing. These people might fear and respect her now, but they wouldn't act this way if she lost everything. This realization didn't sit well with Samantha. She had to figure out a way to keep herself safe. She had to be able to fend for herself, even if she left Pierce's side. Samantha found a number in her contact list and dialed it. About half an hour later, the man she called finally arrived at the bar. "You said you needed my help with something. What is it?" Stefan sat across

    Before long, Samantha retrieved her social security card and met up with Stefan. Both of them then quickly got their marriage certificate. "When will you make an official announcement about us, Ste?""Right now. The bigger, the better, too. I can't let you feel sorry for yourself now. Can I, honey?" Stefan's grin deepened. Samantha didn't notice anything. All she knew was that she was very pleased with his response. "You're going to the Atkinson residence with me tonight then. I want to show you off to them!""Great," Stefan simply replied.Soon, Leach Group released the news that they were forming an alliance through marriage with Atkinson Group. The entire nation was shook when the news was made known to the public. Two of the most prestigious families had just joined forces, and it was terrifying for their competitors. Some of them couldn't help but make remarks about Stefan's marriage. After all, he had just gotten divorced not long ago, and yet he was already marrying S

    Samantha was thrilled that she could make Pierce suffer to this extent. She said, "You forced my hand, Pierce. You're the reason all of this happened. I've called Mom and Dad. They know that I'm married to Stefan, and they were very supportive of it. They think that I've the right man. "I'm no longer an heiress to the Atkinson family. Now, I'm Mrs. Leach. You should be happy for me, Pierce. If you can't give me a life of happiness and bliss, then the least you can do is get out of the way, so another man can give it to me." Samantha held Stefan's arm tighter. Stefan hadn't uttered a single word this whole while. As far as he was concerned, he missed out on the lady he loved the most, so it no longer mattered to him who he married now.At the very least, Stefan was aware that Samantha meant to harm Millie, and he could immediately bring Samantha under control as soon as he saw her doing something sinister. This was his way of protecting Millie. Stefan believed that he had mad

    "I-I'm going to take a cold shower," Pierce said.He had his needs. Things were different when he had never known what sex felt like, but now that he had had a taste of that mesmerizing and tantalizing sensation, he would've humped Millie crazy every night if he could. Alas, Pierce was too rough with it and hurt Millie last time. She had yet to recover fully from it, and he suddenly received an urgent mission. By the time the dust settled, he hadn't had sex with anyone for three long months. The wait had been too long and torturous. "I can help you in other ways too." Millie couldn't help but offer. After all, she felt heartbroken for him. To her surprise, Pierce turned down the offer. "If we do it that way, you wouldn't get to feel the pleasure. Moreover, it's dirty. I wouldn't want your lips anywhere near it."What the hell did Pierce just say?Millie's face immediately turned hot and red. "I-It's not like we haven't done it before." "We did it because we didn't have a

    He had already remarried Millie, and now, all that was left was the wedding ceremony. Yet, Samantha had become the center of attention as the bride-to-be. According to local Arbelton customs, the bride was supposed to leave her parents' home. Only those marrying far away would leave from a hotel.

    Millie swiftly took some photos and handed the phone back to the guy."The photos you took look great, miss," one of them couldn't help but praise."Thanks for the compliment," Millie said with a smile.That person was so mesmerized that they stood there in a daze, unsure of what to do. Even when Millie had already walked away, he still hadn't snapped out of it."What's wrong? Do you like her?"Nathaniel Yates finally came to his senses. "N-No. Cut the nonsense. I just appreciate her photography skills."Meanwhile, Millie had gone over to sit by the water and noticed some fish in the lake. It reminded her of the last time she went fishing with Piercy. She was so lost in thought and didn't even notice that Nathaniel was secretly taking a photo of her from behind.He was using an instant camera, so the photo developed quickly.As Nathaniel stepped forward, Millie suddenly heard the noise behind her. She immediately turned around and saw an unfamiliar man, which startled her.

    Millie quietly left the room so that Pierce could bid his gun a proper farewell. Then, she went downstairs for breakfast. However, breakfast felt tasteless.Pierce went downstairs after half an hour.Though he didn't have work that day, he dressed in formal attire to make the handover look more proper.The gun was wrapped in a paper bag. He casually set it aside as if nothing was wrong and began eating breakfast."It tastes delicious, you should try some," he casually uttered, serving Millie some food.Millie saw through Pierce's act but chose not to say anything.After that, Pierce remained silent the entire way to the CBP. The atmosphere in the car was heavy.Soon, they arrived at the police station, and Jason came out."Pierce…" Jason whispered, his voice slightly choked. He knew what it meant for Pierce to return the gun this time.Pierce looked at Jason's uniform and couldn't help but give him a firm pat on the shoulder. "Do your best. I have high hopes for you."Jas

    Millie had once loved Stefan wholeheartedly, leaving herself no way out. But now, her love for Pierce was only six or seven on a scale of ten. She kept reminding herself that she shouldn't give anyone the chance to hurt her deeply again.Millie had even planned her retreat. If they broke up, she would be the one to walk away the most effortlessly.Once bitten, twice shy.Millie was well aware of her problems. Both she and Pierce had their fair share of flaws, and nobody was perfect. That was human nature."Pierce, you're way too extreme," Millie said."I know," Pierce answered.The most terrifying part was that he knew his flaws too well, yet he had no desire or intention to change.Pierce had suffered for his whole life. As an illegitimate child of the Atkinson family, he'd lost his mother at birth, and his father never loved him. The only place he ever felt a sense of belonging was with his grandfather. He was inherently a cold and unfeeling person, and the first time he bec

    The call was quickly answered."Where are you?" Millie asked."I'm still on a business trip," Pierce replied."Then turn on the video. I want to see your face."There was a brief silence on the other end of the call. Millie knew Pierce was lying. "Are you still not willing to tell me the truth? Jason came to the house, asking to take back your gun. What's going on? What happened in the days you were away?""I'll tell you when I get back home." Pierce's voice was a bit muffled.He then hung up the call and removed the bandage from the corner of his eye.The wound was right beside his eyebrow. Since he had dark eyebrows, the scar shouldn't be that noticeable. He could only cling on to this wishful thinking.With that, Pierce returned to the villa.Millie hadn't seen him for days. She felt that he had lost a lot of weight and looked even more exhausted after the trip."How did you get injured again?" she asked.Pierce initially thought it would take her a long time to notic

    Jacob eventually calmed down and said, "Do you still insist on doing this when you know it doesn't exactly benefit us?"Pierce replied, "I wouldn't dare to deceive you, neither do I dare to contact you in private. But this doesn't affect our operations, which was why I dared to do so. I want to find someone, but I can't no matter how hard I've tried, so I had no choice but to ask for their favor.""You… Are you still doing it even though we won't get anything good out of this?" Jacob asked.Pierce fell silent and clenched his fists. "Yes. I will resolve whatever problems I've caused. After that, I'll kill them in my own way."Jacob threw his cup at Pierce upon hearing this.With Pierce's skill, he could have dodged it. However, he chose to stand straight.The cup hit him right at the corner of his eye, causing him to bleed."You…" Jacob angrily stood up. "W-Why didn't you dodge?" he asked in a shaky voice."I did something wrong. It's right for you to punish me," Pierce simply

    Gideon really admired Pierce's calm and composed demeanor."What's the matter?" he asked."I need you to help me find a lady who went missing. I have to know if she's still alive or not," Pierce answered. "I need her, dead or alive. I can't do this on my own, but with your help, it'll be much easier."He had used every legal method he could think of. But desperate times called for desperate measures, and there was only one option left—to enter the underworld."You're making such a big scene just to look for this one person? What? Is she like your lover or something?" Gideon asked."She's an enemy, the kind that I want dead more than anything."The way Pierce paused after each word made him sound eerily intimidating."Is she also like us, from the underworld?""No, she's just a nobody."Gideon felt chills running down his spine. Having dealt with Pierce for this long, he thought he knew his true nature well enough—a righteous police officer who always played by the book. But ri

    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
