"James, are you okay?" The old woman rushed in. "Hurry, take James to the hospital! Lock her up and bolt the door. Make sure she can't get out. When we get back, we'll starve her and beat her until she learns her lesson. That's what everyone has gone through to behave here! Let's go to the hospital first."The old woman was extremely anxious. After all, a trip to the hospital would incur additional expenses for them.Unwilling to let go of his anger, the man—James—gave Millie another brutal kick before he locked the door and left.Millie was in so much pain that cold sweat trickled down her face. She curled up in the corner as she felt a wave of relief knowing that the old woman and James had left. For now, she was safe.Millie thought about ending her life so she could keep her chastity. However, she couldn't bring herself to accept that she would never be able to witness justice being served to the culprits if she died.Death was an easy way out for her; the real challenge w

Millie was powerless to stop Stefan. The only thing she could do was to stay alert. There was no room for errors."Ugh…" Millie felt pain as blood continuously dripped from the corners of her mouth.Now, Stefan had finally calmed down. As if coming to a realization, he grabbed Millie's chin and forced her mouth open.Blood overflowed from her mouth."What were you trying to do?" Stefan asked, alarmed by the bloody sight. "Did you want to bite your own tongue off to end your life? Do you know how painful that would be?""Stefan… I can't stop you, but I won't be able to live with myself if I get violated by you. Pierce will avenge me for what you've done."If she'd been assaulted by James, Millie believed that she would still have the courage to keep living. But if it was Stefan who assaulted her, her life would become a living nightmare. When she thought about having to live with that trauma for the rest of her life—death would be the more merciful option."You'd rather die tha

Stefan's hand was trembling as he picked up his phone to call Pierce, intending to tell him which hospital Millie was in. But in the next moment, he decided against it and opted to send a text instead because just hearing Pierce's voice annoyed him to no end.Millie's injuries were not severe, and the wounds were mostly superficial. Proper care of the wounds would be sufficient for complete recovery.However, the drug with the aphrodisiac properties was immensely harmful to the body. It could easily cause an increase in blood flow which would then lead to insufficient oxygen supply, and it could also result in shock or sudden death.Millie was somewhat dehydrated as she'd been sweating profusely. She had been in a deep sleep the entire day. When she wanted to wake up, her eyelids felt unbearably heavy. It was almost impossible to open them."Mills…" She heard a familiar voice by her ear, and someone was tightly holding her hand.Was it Pierce?Millie struggled to open her eyes.

"If you hadn't known about it from the very beginning, you wouldn't have arrived so quickly. Do you know who the culprit is?" Pierce went straight to the point."I do know, but I don't plan on telling you. Because even if you knew who it was, you won't have the heart to actually do anything to that person," Stefan replied.Pierce frowned hard upon hearing this. He could vaguely guess who had been behind this incident, but he didn't dare to think further.At this point, he was clinging onto nothing but a thin sliver of hope.He didn't want to face the reality that Samantha would do such a thing. She was indeed quite willful and unreasonable at times, but as his sister, she wouldn't stoop so low as to collude with the scums of society.He had dedicated his life to capturing criminals. While he didn't dare claim that he could eradicate the dark side of humanity completely, at the very least, he had been working hard to lessen the shadows in this world.But if the person responsible

Millie stayed in the hospital for two days before she could finally be transferred to another one. She felt that she was fine, but Pierce insisted that she needed more time to recover.On the day of her discharge, a police car was parked at the hospital entrance—a police officer had come by to see her off."Thank you for helping our city crack such a major human trafficking case, Pierce. We really appreciate your hard work!" the police officer said."I'm just doing what I should do," Pierce replied.He then bid a simple farewell and was about to leave with Millie when an elderly woman with a head of white hair suddenly rushed out of the police car. It was the old woman who had bought her..She wailed, "I'm sorry! What I did was wrong! Don't take James away. It was all my idea…"Millie instantly took a step back. Merely being touched by her made Millie feel repulsed."What's her situation? Why isn't she locked up like the rest of them?" Millie asked.The police officer explain

Samantha thought that even if Millie was rescued, she might already be pregnant with the child of some lowly man from the countryside by then. At that point, even if Pierce didn't mind it, Millie probably couldn't bring herself to stay by his side.Even if they did find out that she was behind this, Samantha was no longer just a member of the Atkinson family. Besides, what could Pierce possibly do to her when she was now Mrs. Leach?Soon, Tobias came to find her. "Mrs. Leach, Pierce wants to see you.""I'm not going. When I begged him to see me previously, he refused. I'm not going to entertain him now just because he wants to see me. "Leave. I don't want to see you as well," Samantha haughtily said. She put on an act, banking on the fact that Tobias had always been afraid of her and would just helplessly leave.But to her surprise, Tobias reacted differently this time. "If that's the case, then pardon me for being rude."With that, he ordered two bodyguards to forcibly escort

"Are you so angry that you've lost your mind?" Samantha cautiously asked. Pierce had been on the verge of losing his temper just moments ago. Yet, he was suddenly calm and spoke to her in a perfectly even tone.Pierce replied, "No, I'm perfectly clear-headed. Go home, Samantha. You've helped me quite a lot this time. If it weren't for you contacting those people, how else would I have been able to uproot them completely?""R-Really?" Samantha nervously stuttered.Why did it feel like Pierce had become a completely different person?"Leave now. I have other matters to take care of," Pierce dismissively said.Samantha had expected a heated argument with Pierce when she arrived, but everything turned out to be eerily calm in the end. So, she left without hesitation, not daring to linger."Pierce, what are you doing?" Tobias looked at him in confusion."What? Are you wondering why I didn't punish her in some way? What could I do? Cut ties with her? Announce that she's no longer an
I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 529
Pierce's payback toward Samantha was absolutely savage."Any other questions?" Pierce asked with a raised brow."No… I'll see to it immediately," Tobias replied. He was happy to let Samantha suffer. Even though he had his doubts, he didn't voice them.After Tobias left, Pierce sat in his chair. He slowly spun it around as he gazed at his spacious office. He had sat here before, overlooking the countless people below. But this time, his mindset was different.This time, he wouldn't be reckless. Everyone who had wronged him would pay the price!Millie's injuries weren't too serious. So, after resting for two days, she had almost fully recovered. The wound on her thigh was only superficial too. As long as she diligently applied medicine, it would heal quickly.Millie had already moved back to the villa. She didn't think much of what had happened and assumed it was just an unfortunate incident. She believed that she'd simply been chosen by traffickers by chance.It wasn't until sh

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

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
