"I won't forgive you. Go back," Millie plainly said.She knew well that if apologizing would help her patch things up with Pierce, Samantha would have done that already. He must have declined to help her, which was why she had come to her.Millie's words made Samantha's expression darken. But as she thought about how much she needed the Atkinson family's help right now, she held her anger back."Just say the word, Millie. I'll apologize however you want. I'll even kneel and apologize to you if that's what it takes. I'll do anything as long as you forgive me!" Samantha begged.Millie almost laughed out loud when she heard that. The fact that Samantha was even willing to be on her knees showed that she must be out of options. She was probably exhausted from dealing with her birth parents.Samantha had lost weight, and she looked haggard. Even her clothes were noticeably less luxurious compared to before."No matter what you do, it won't work. I will never forgive you because you're

Samantha wanted to run after them, but her phone rang. When she answered, she found that it was a reporter."Mrs. Leach, do you have time for an interview? Is it true that Simon Miller and Ruth Kramer are your biological parents? Is your real name Betty?"Samantha immediately hung up. She had to leave quickly before the reporters blocked her escape.By the time Millie and Pierce left the restaurant, so did Samantha."How long do you plan to keep holding me?" Millie asked, annoyed.Pierce's expression became somewhat sheepish upon being called out for it. Reluctantly, he withdrew his arm.Millie caught the faint scent of smoke on him and coughed lightly. "Have you been smoking?""You don't like the smell? Then I won't smoke anymore," Pierce immediately replied. He was like an obedient little puppy that listened to whatever she said."Then stop lurking outside my place too. Anyone who doesn't know better might think I'm a suspect under surveillance," Millie complained.Pierc

"Are you thinking about someone else?" Pierce asked in a panic. "Has he succeeded in leaving an impression of himself in your heart?""Don't rile yourself up. Get some rest. I'll go downstairs to buy you some medicine," Millie said, getting up to leave.However, Pierce stubbornly held her hand to pull her back into his arms. He hugged her tightly, and Millie could feel the heat radiating from his body. He was burning up like a furnace that was threatening to melt her icy heart."Everything you said is true—I'm indeed a nut case. If this had surfaced when I applied to the police academy, I probably never would have made it onto that path in the first place."I never deserved you, and I've always known that. If I hadn't been so persistent… If I hadn't clung to you and forced you to notice me, you would never have chosen me. Even if I had shown up earlier, maybe you wouldn't have picked me at all. "You were abandoned by your parents and deceived by Stefan, so you had no sense of sec

After hearing Tobias' words, Millie replied, "I will handle things with him. I never said I'd leave him.""Then I'll leave him in your care. There's still a lot to do at the company, so I'll head back first," Tobias said, deliberately leaving to give them space.After that, Millie stayed by Pierce's bedside, watching over him in his weakened state. She couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy.Pierce was frowning hard, which indicated that he was likely dreaming about something troubling.Millie reached out and gently smoothed his forehead."Mills… don't leave me…" he murmured in his sleep.Millie felt a stir in her heart. Throughout this relationship, she had always been fearless, and because of Pierce's overwhelming love for her, she acted however she pleased. She could throw tantrums at him whenever she wanted. She could even threaten to break up or go for a divorce because she knew deep down, Pierce would never be the one to say it.Wasn't it because she was certain o
I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 567
Of course, Stefan didn't divorce her either.Some people praised Stefan for being a loyal and devoted man. Samantha had been exposed to be a fraud and a fake heiress, yet he still didn't leave her.The Internet was in complete chaos, and Atkinson Group hadn't made any statements because Pierce was still unconscious.Millie skimmed through the news but didn't dwell on it. Instead, she stayed by Pierce's side until evening came.By then, he'd finally woken up. The first thing he did was search frantically for Millie. When he didn't see her in the room, he pulled out the IV needle and stumbled out of bed in a panic. He didn't even bother to put on his shoes.Millie stepped out of the bathroom just in time to see this scene. "What on earth are you doing?""You didn't leave?" Pierce let out a deep sigh of relief and immediately rushed over to hug her tightly.He firmly held her, as if letting go would mean losing her forever."Alright, you're squeezing me too tight… I can't breath

Wanda acted as if she had found the ultimate weapon that could deliver a fatal blow to Millie. She was desperate to prove that Stefan loved her deeply and that Millie was nothing compared to her."Oh, really? Then why aren't you Mrs. Leach yet?" Millie challenged her.At those words, Wanda's expression soured instantly.She tried to argue, "That's because… because he lost his memory! He forgot about our relationship and married someone else on a whim. He only married Samantha because she was an Atkinson!Millie countered, "But now that Samantha has been kicked out of the Atkinson family, Stefan doesn't need to be mindful of her status anymore. So why hasn't he divorced her to marry you?""If he divorces her now, everyone will say he's a heartless opportunist. But once the storm blows over, he will definitely kick Samantha aside and remarry me!" Wanda kept making excuses for herself. She was fully convinced that she would soon reclaim her title as Mrs. Leach.Samantha had always l

Samantha felt completely powerless and despaired, so much so that she nearly passed out.And then, she actually did. After days of exhaustion, both mentally and physically, her body couldn't take it anymore after the final blow from Wand. She collapsed.The housekeeper, who had been cleaning outside the door, heard the loud thump and rushed inside in a panic. She immediately called Stefan."Mr. Leach, Mrs. Leach has fainted!""Call a doctor. Why are you calling me?" Stefan's tone was indifferent."M-Mrs. Leach is bleeding. The doctor said she's pregnant and showing signs of a possible miscarriage. She needs bed rest to keep the baby safe."Stefan's frosty eyes narrowed slightly. "Pregnant?"How interesting."Alright. I'll come home tonight." He ended the call and continued working.After all, a mere pregnancy wasn't enough to make him drop everything."These are the candidates you requested, Mr. Leach. Do you need to take a look?" Mark placed a stack of files in front o

When Samantha saw him, tears immediately streamed down her face."Why are you crying?" Stefan's expression was gentle, and his tone was soft. But inside, he felt nothing for her."Why are you still with Wanda? I've already made up with you." Samantha sniffled.If this had been the old Samantha, she would already have thrown a tantrum. But she no longer had the confidence to do so. After all, she wasn't the heiress of the Atkinson family anymore. She was just an ordinary woman.Now, she no longer bore the Atkinson surname after the name change, and as she felt an aversion toward the name Betty, she had chosen to go by Samantha Miller after Pierce forced her to change her name.Stefan said, "I'm sorry. I know I'm in the wrong for doing this. But Wanda and I grew up together, and I can't completely let go of her. Her parents are gone, and she's had a hard life. But don't worry, she's just a passing distraction. "You are the true Mrs. Leach. Now that you're pregnant with my child, I

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
