Chapter 570

Author: Feminine Blade
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

    Samantha was the only one holding on to unrealistic expectations."Just ignore those messages," Millie said."That's exactly what I wanted to hear. I didn't dare to block her or ask Pierce about it. Millie, I'll do as you say." Tobias was aware of his position and knew better than to be overly involved in Pierce's family matters.…That evening, Millie was reading in the study when someone knocked on the door."What is it?" she questioned."I bought some food for you since you missed dinner. Would you like to try it?" Pierce asked."I'm not hungry," Millie replied. She had no intention of opening the door.As Millie heard nothing else, she went back to her book. However, she sensed something was amiss after reading for half an hour.She then opened the door, only to find Pierce standing outside—he had never left. It was no wonder she hadn't heard him walk off."Why are you still here?" she questioned."I was planning to ask you again. What if you had started feeling hungry?"

    Pierce woke up the next day, unaware that anything was amiss. He still messaged Millie frequently even after he'd gone off to work at Atkinson Group.Anything—from Pierce's encounter with a stray cat, to a new shop opening downstairs, and even how he'd witnessed a proposal between a couple—he would tell Millie everything he'd seen.However, despite all his messages, Millie didn't reply.Nevertheless, Pierce was not discouraged and continued his attempts at conversing with her.…Millie had gone to meet up with Sharon today. After all, she couldn't possibly stay in the house all day. She had to get some fresh air."Aren't you afraid that he'll give up if you continue ignoring him?" Sharon questioned."I'll leave that up to fate. If he gives up, that means we're just not meant to be," Millie said.But before she could finish talking, Sharon gave her a hard whack. "I hate it when you say that. He spares all that effort, yet you won't give him an inch. If he gives up, you'll make e

    Millie strode over and shoved past the best friend."Watch it! Can't you see where you're walking?" the best friend shouted and looked over to Millie. She then stared in shock when she saw her—Millie was so beautiful. Out of fear of frightening Millie, the best friend no longer dared to raise her voice.Millie then headed straight over to Pierce. "Darling, have you bought the cake yet?""It's almost my turn," Pierce replied.When Pierce saw Millie, his icy expression instantly melted as his gentle gaze lingered over her.He wrapped his hands around Millie's waist and pulled her into an embrace with one swift move. Millie didn't have the time to be concerned about what he'd just done. Instead, she said to the two ladies, "I'm his girlfriend. Is something the matter?" "I… I…" the best friend stuttered. The two ladies certainly complemented each other perfectly when they stood next to each other.The first lady immediately came forward. "Please excuse us. My friend's just ve

    Millie rolled her eyes at Pierce, annoyed."What do you think?" Pierce gave her a contented smile. "I knew you cared about me.""We'll go to the hospital first to monitor your condition."So, Millie took Pierce to the hospital. Luckily, he hadn't eaten much and had merely developed rashes, and the symptoms showed signs of easing after administering some ointment. "I might return late tonight since I have a social event with some business partners. You can eat dinner without me," Pierce said."Alright," Millie simply replied.The dynamics between them both had become slightly complicated. It wasn't as bad as the stalemate they had in the past. Rather, it was more like… they had just started dating. They were courteous, yet intimate.Pierce had been returning home late for the past few days. He probably had critical business proposals to negotiate.Everyday, he would text Millie to report his schedule. At first, she would ignore them, but as time passed she slowly started to r

    Pierce had happened to be carrying out a mission overseas back then and couldn't make it back in time. As a result, Stefan had managed to get together with Millie during that time."Come on. You should just come with me and not try anything funny," Liam said with a lustful look.Just then, Pierce reached out and stopped him. "I'm taking her," he simply said.Liam was taken aback. "But Mr. Atkinson, didn't you say…"But Liam was quick to understand—since Pierce had spoken up and asked for Yulia, he shouldn't question his intentions. In fact, he thought that this was more like it. True love didn't really exist. No man could withstand the temptation of having an affair with another woman."Well, she's lucky to have caught your eye. If that's the case, we'll be leaving first to give you some space," Liam said.With that, everyone left, and only Pierce and Yulia remained in the spacious private room.Yulia was still shaking like a leaf. "Thank… Thank you…""What difficulties are y

    As Yulia said those words, she secretly looked forward to Pierce's response. After all, she would be thrilled to be involved with a man like Pierce.She had had her eyes on Pierce back then, and now that he'd saved her life, she saw him through rose-tinted glasses. Now, she was deeply and helplessly in love with him."It's fine. Think of it as charity," Pierce calmly said. Then he said, "Tobias, let's go straight to the conference room. Get ready to start the meeting." With that, he walked straight ahead without sparing Yulia a single glance. Yulia watched as Pierce left, her eyes filled with admiration.As she exited the Atkinson Group office and looked at the towering skyscraper, her excitement was beyond words. She never imagined that she would have the opportunity to cross paths with the renowned Pierce Atkinson in this lifetime. It was just that he was too cold toward her, which made it impossible for her to get close to him. On top of that, he was married, and from wha

    Isabella returned to her office and grew angry at the sight of Yulia trying to win everyone over outside. Despite still having feelings for Pierce even after his marriage, Isabella wouldn't commit immoral acts and refused to become a mistress.Never in her wildest dreams had she expected Pierce to be such a disgraceful person—a man who fooled around despite being married. He was nothing but a piece of trash, and she couldn't believe that she had liked him for nothing. Very quickly, she found the mutual group chat that she shared with Millie, where she had saved her contact under the nickname "109"."109, did you know that Mr. Atkinson is cheating on you?" Isabella typed out the message, but it felt wrong. So, she calmed herself and reassessed the situation. To her knowledge, Pierce had always been a righteous man. He was unlikely to make such a mistake. There had to be some kind of misunderstanding.If there was nothing going on, her words would become a depth charge, set

    Yulia had been waiting for Pierce to reach out to her first, but there was still not a single sign from him even after waiting for a few days.She had not expected Pierce to have so much patience. Was he playing hard to get?Every day, Yulia waited for Pierce in the lobby on the first floor, wanting to see him one more time. Because of that, she came in late for work, but no one said anything about it.However, what was disappointing was that she never succeeded in meeting Pierce—not even once. Little did she know that Pierce's car was parked in a designated location and he took the elevator, so he never passed through the first floor at all.Instead of running into Pierce, Yulia ran into Millie.When she saw Millie coming, she instinctively tried to put her best foot forward. She intentionally walked toward her and then pretended to bump into her, spilling the coffee she was holding onto Millie."I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do that," she apologized.Millie glance

    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
