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

Millie felt bad for Pierce. She comforted, "It's okay. From now on, you have me, don't you?""Yeah. I'm glad to have you," Pierce replied with a nod.After taking a shower and changing into clean pajamas, Pierce lay down beside Millie, who had just finished getting ready for bed too. As Millie lay next to Pierce, she could feel the heat radiating from his body.Of course, she couldn't sleep. She stayed up all night watching over Pierce. As his fever worsened, she fed him some paracetamol and wiped his sweat away for him. She barely got any sleep herself.It wasn't until his temperature dropped that she drifted off into a light slumber.…The next morning, faint light seeped through the gap between the curtains.Pierce had a strong body, so he'd almost fully recovered from the cold overnight. He propped himself up slightly and looked down at the exhausted figure in his arms. Millie had worked hard to take care of him last night.Pierce gently stroked her face, tracing his

"I'll get it for you," Millie replied.She then brought a glass of water to Pierce. Pierce had wanted Millie to feed him mouth-to-mouth, but unfortunately, his body wouldn't allow it.Even though Pierce didn't go to work, he still had to handle some work from home. He couldn't slack off for even a moment. Hence, Piercy was very familiar with Atkinson Group's operations and adapted quickly. Even Tobias didn't notice anything unusual.As he focused intently on his work, Millie picked up a sketchpad and began drawing him, as she had nothing else to do. With just a few strokes, Millie outlined his features before gradually adding more details.The only sounds in the room were Pierce's rhythmic tapping on his keyboard and the soft scratching of Millie's pencil against the paper.The sounds of them focusing on their respective work sounded like a harmonious symphony. They both shone and demonstrated exceptional talent in their own fields.Soon, Millie was more or less done, and onl

Stefan took care of Wanda's living arrangements and provided her with a monthly allowance of several hundreds of thousands of dollars. He also hired a maid, a bodyguard, and a driver to be at her disposal.However, he couldn't divorce Samantha just yet. After all, her prestigious status was beneficial to Leach Group.Of course, Wanda wasn't happy about this. However, she understood that Stefan had just gotten married. If he divorced Samantha so soon, it would only bring trouble upon both of them.So, she decided to be patient.Stefan admitted that during his marriage, Samantha had tried to seduce him multiple times. But he also claimed that he had never given in and that his feelings for Wanda were genuine.He insisted that after their divorce, Samantha had been the one to take the initiative. And because he had lost his memory, he had foolishly ended up marrying her.Once he regained his memories after the wedding, he regretted it immediately.Similar to how Wanda could twist t

However, Wanda kept hoping that she would conceive. It even slowly evolved into an obsession for her. That was exactly why Stefan wanted to torment her with it. He had sworn that he wouldn't let Wanda have an easy life. Poverty was nothing compared to what he had in store for her.He wanted to pit Samantha and Wanda against each other. One was the neglected Mrs. Leach, the other was the lover showered with affection yet doomed to be infertile for life.Watching them fight would be quite a spectacle.Stefan would stand by and watch indifferently from the sidelines. He wanted to be the spectator who enjoyed the show of the two women tearing each other apart.The thought of it amused him.The only disgusting part was having to be intimate with them."Mr. Leach…" Mark hesitantly spoke up from the driver's seat."What is it?" Stefan asked."I feel like you're not the same as before, sir. You seem burdened, and you're not as happy as you used to be. Also, I noticed a few strands

Samantha immediately slid her finger across the screen to answer the call. Wanda's voice was—which was still groggy from sleep and deliberately coy—sounded from the other end, "I just woke up and realized you left your documents here. Do you want to come over tonight to get them? It's my ovulation period—we should really put in some effort, don't you think?"Samantha's face paled dramatically at those words. Was Stefan seeing Wanda behind her back now?Samantha didn't say a word and instantly hung up the call.Just then, the door opened, and Stefan stepped out of the bathroom. He was wearing a bathrobe, and water droplets dripped from the tips of his damp hair.He frowned slightly. "Who gave you permission to touch my phone?" He reached out to snatch his phone back from Samantha. This caused her temper to flare.She yelled, "What is the meaning of this? It's not like I'm stopping you from seeing other women. But of all the women you could get involved with, why must it be Wa

Samantha thought that perhaps it would be better if she had her own child. Then, at least, her child would be the future heir of the Leach family. After all, without a child, her position as Mrs. Leach would always be unstable.Samantha felt torn. Loving Pierce was important, but so were status, power, money, and influence. Without these external factors, she wouldn't be able to love him on equal footing. So, she had to start planning for her own future.Three days later, Stefan finally returned.Samantha had barely eaten or slept during those days.As soon as Stefan stepped through the door, a maid rushed up to him. As instructed by Samantha, she said in an anxious voice, "You're finally back, Mr. Leach. Mrs. Leach is severely ill! Please go take a look at her!""I'll go check on her," Stefan replied.He then entered Samantha's room and saw her lying in bed with her eyes tightly shut. "How did you suddenly fall ill?" Stefan asked while reaching out to touch her forehead. How

Samantha had no choice but to stop and usher the elderly couple into a car to prevent them from making a fuss in public and attracting attention.She was, after all, the highly respected Mrs. Leach now.The elderly couple continued crying as they recounted how difficult life had been for them back then. They kept saying that they were forced to abandon her due to the dire circumstances they'd been in. They then claimed that they had always planned to take her back once their situation improved. However, by the time they went back to the orphanage, she had already been adopted.They spoke about their deep parental love for her and how they'd been searching for her for years. They insisted that fate had finally brought their family back together."Betty, seeing how well you're doing now puts our hearts at ease."Betty… Just hearing that name made Samantha's scalp tingle."My name is not Betty. I'm Samantha Atkinson. Keep that in mind," Samantha coldly said. "You can stay here f

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
I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 600
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
I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 597
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
