As if Millie had thrown two bombs into the ocean, the originally quiet group was instantly in an uproar."Damn, that's really high definition! Where did you get these from?""Is this a secret shot? Why do I feel like this was taken up close? 109, who exactly are you?""Do you have more? I can't get enough of them!"To avoid suspicion, Millie came up with a random excuse."I got it from someone at a high price, but I don't know who they are, either. If you want more, you can buy them from me."Someone immediately sent Millie a private message.Millie was quite smart. She told the group members that they should label it as a gift instead of a purchase when setting up the transaction. If not, it would be an illegal business.However, she was also infringing on Pierce's right of publicity. Still, Millie felt that Pierce probably wouldn't sue her.Isabella couldn't hold it in anymore."I need those photos! A thousand dollars, right?""Sorry, I'm charging you ten thousand dollars
I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 62
Millie's mind went blank. Soon, she came to her senses and said, "Can you please keep it a secret for him? He doesn't know about this. Can I have my parents pick me up instead?""Sorry, but I've already called him. He's on his way now, and he'll be here at any minute."Millie could hide her marriage with Pierce from the public, but she couldn't hide it from the police department's social network database. The name of her partner was displayed as clear as day: Pierce Atkinson.When Millie heard that, she wished she could just disappear."Where's Millie?"Just then, Millie heard a familiar voice outside. The voice was low, and its owner sounded like he was suppressing his fury."Over here, Pierce."The police officer shouted.Millie froze. Did they know each other?Pierce entered the room with a foul look on his face. His dark gaze fell upon Millie."Pierce, look at these photos of you! They're quite good."The police officer smiled as he waved the photos in front of Pierce. M

Millie had no idea if Pierce was just trying to spook her or something else.But when she remembered his previous line of work, she didn't dare bet on it. What if he really was that heartless?"This is my first offense, and I've earnestly admitted to my mistakes, so can you please give me another chance?""How exactly are you owning up to your mistakes?""I'll… give you the money. I earned a total of 60 thousand dollars in profit.""And?""I'll write a reflection essay, and I promise to never do it again.""And?""And…" Millie was at a loss. What else could she do to compensate? "Any hints?""You won't have your allowance for this month. Also, you won't be paid for the clothes you're designing for me and my sister."She could give away the clothes for free, but wouldn't it be going too far to take away her allowance?"Can you please… let me have my allowance at least?""Then I'll talk to the legal department at Atkinson Group. They'll send you to jail."The legal departmen

Millie didn't know the answer, nor did she dare to reply."Clear your mind and look straight ahead."Millie took a deep breath and calmed down. She began getting used to the recoil.This time, she didn't miss the target. She managed to hit the edge of it.Her palms were covered in sweat, and she could barely hold the gun."Are you so nervous just because I'm here?"Pierce's half-amused voice rang out. Millie wasn't even sure if he was getting this close to her on purpose. His thin lips were almost pressed against her skin, and his hot and humid breaths kept entering her ear."N-No.""Then why are your ears so red?"As soon as Pierce finished speaking, Millie took in a sharp breath. Pierce had actually bitten her, and it hurt a little.But he soon let go of her. He moved his tongue around as if to caress the spot where it hurt.He did all this in quick succession. Beside them, Jason was still celebrating the fact that he managed to hit the 9-ring, so he didn't notice what was
I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 65
Still, Pierce's gaze was so passionate that Millie couldn't quite withstand it."Is… Is that so?""My sister got kidnapped before.""I see."Millie was secretly annoyed. What was she so nervous about?Of course, the people Pierce loved would be his family!"Wow, Thomas, you're amazing! You hit the 10-ring!"Just then, the group of men shouted in excitement. Millie was intrigued, so she hastily went over for a look as well."Wow…"Millie looked at Thomas in admiration. "I'll come over often to practice, so please help me out, okay?"Just then, a gunshot sounded at the target beside theirs."Pierce is firing a gun again? Didn't he say that he wouldn't fire any guns after he resigned?"Jason's face was filled with surprise as he hastily went to take a look."Pierce, you're still going strong! You just keep hitting the 10-ring!""You're amazing too."Millie hastily praised Pierce.Jason didn't know what was going on, but Thomas and the other friend were well aware of Pierce
I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 66
Pierce was stunned.He thought that Millie felt ill because Jason's stories were too cruel and gory.To his surprise, Millie was upset about something else entirely.She was mad that Pierce didn't care about his own safety."You've saved my life as well, and you've also helped me out on many occasions after that. It's only normal that I would be worried about you, right?"I'm glad that you've already resigned. If you're still in this line of work, I won't get married to you at all. I'm not a heartless person. Even if we aren't a real married couple, I'll still be worried about you."You should value yourself more, and learn to love yourself before you learn to love others! You shouldn't just ignore your own life. You have to ensure your safety before going out there to save other people.""Alright," Pierce said earnestly. He seemed to be actually listening to her."I… I also feel that you can only apprehend more criminals if you stay alive. You agree with me, don't you?""Yeah

"Come on, you stupid kid. Didn't you see the two getting all lovey-dovey?""But it's so rare to see—""They don't want to see you now, so stay away. I can't believe Pierce has such moments too. Pigs will fly at any moment now. Also, guys, do you remember that Pierce had someone he loved?""Yes! That time when he offered himself in exchange for a hostage and almost died when a bullet hit his chest, right? When he was severely injured and losing consciousness, he kept mumbling someone's name. Could it be Millie?""I don't know. His voice was too soft back then, and it was also very muffled. But I know it's a name.""If it wasn't Millie…""Let's pretend nothing ever happened. Come on, get going."…After getting into the car, Millie said hesitantly, "It's not every day that you get to meet them. Why don't you hang out with them a little more? I can drive back on my own, or maybe hail a cab back. I have to drop by the studio to handle some matters too.""That works too. You can ta

Millie exerted all her energy, finally breaking through the stiffness in her body.She immediately ran without looking back."What's the matter? Do I look that terrifying?"The man smiled as he spoke with a knowing look in his eyes.Millie ran headlong, and she didn't even dare to look back. She didn't dare to hesitate for even a second, fearing that that single second would give the man a chance to catch up to her.She broke through her physical limits as she ran, and by the time she was about to slow down, she felt like her heart was leaping into her throat.There were more people around her now, and she finally felt a little safer.She turned around and looked. The man didn't run after her.Still, she was extremely terrified. She hid in a bathroom in a mall, her hands shaking as she took out her phone to call Pierce.She should be calling the police right now.But she subconsciously contacted Pierce first.The call went through soon enough."What's the matter?"Pierce's

"Has Tobias left? I prepared coffee," Millie said, looking around."He just came to pick up a file," Pierce replied. He felt itchy all over but resisted the urge to scratch in Millie's presence. He had extraordinary self-control, so it wasn't too difficult for him.Millie opened her mouth, wanting to ask something, but she ultimately held back. Everyone had their quirks and pride, and there was no need to call attention to them. She simply decided to be more careful next time and to never give Pierce cream again."Alright, I guess I'll get going. Do continue with your work," Millie said. Feeling a sting in her nose, she held back her emotions and quickly left. It wasn't until she returned to her room that she allowed herself to cry.The more she understood Pierce's awkwardness, the more she realized that he was another human being. He wasn't the unfeeling, steel-hearted man she had once imagined him to be. He could get hurt and feel sad, but he had simply learned how to hide

"What's wrong?" Pierce nervously asked when he noticed her frowning."It looks unique. Let's try it," Millie said with a smile.After taking the cake out of the fridge, she took a bite. The texture was a bit dense, and it was a bit dry. So, it was a bit difficult to swallow.In truth, it wasn't very good. But when Millie caught Pierce's expectant gaze, a thought struck her—could he have made this himself?"It's so delicious. I've never had such an amazing strawberry cake," Millie enthusiastically said.The worry in Pierce's eyes faded, and he smiled. "I'm glad you like it.""Try some too," Millie urged.She scooped a bite with her spoon and offered it to him. Pierce didn't hesitate and ate it. He wasn't particular about food and didn't usually eat sweets, so he couldn't tell if it was good or bad. To him, it was fine.Soon, they finished the cake together after taking turns feeding each other."If you like it, I can buy it again," he offered."I do, but let's not overindulg

But what right did he have to be dissatisfied with Millie? "If that's how you feel, I'll treat any child of yours as my own," Pierce solemnly said."What?" Millie blinked, confused. Since when did she have a child?"You're acting strange today," she said, narrowing her eyes."It's nothing. Let's eat." Pierce lowered his gaze and began peeling Millie's favorite shrimps for her.Millie didn't press further. After all, she was used to his peculiarities. While Pierce managed other people and their affairs with calculated precision, he always seemed to lose his composure when it came to her. He was decisive and confident in everything else but hesitant and insecure when dealing with her.Being with someone like Pierce was exhausting, but Millie knew she'd already lost too much in life. She could understand the pathological depth of Pierce's love, and his tenderness warmed her heart.Someone had loved her for 20 years. When everyone else had abandoned her, he had remained stead

"I needed to use the bathroom. Why?" Pierce casually replied as if he hadn't noticed anything.Millie steadied her breathing. She hadn't done anything wrong, but a strange sense of guilt gnawed at her, making her feel as if she were hiding some scandalous secret.She took a deep breath and reminded herself that she needed to clear the air. She hadn't betrayed Pierce, so there was no reason to feel guilty."I'm just dealing with something from the studio," she nonchalantly said."Need any help?" Pierce offered."No, no. It'll be quick." Millie hastily declined."Alright, I'll be in the study then." Pierce gave her a long, deliberate look that made her feel even more unsettled before he finally turned and left.Once the door closed, Millie wasted no time. She locked it and immediately called the fertility center.She firmly stated, "Hello, I'd like to cancel the service. Please don't send me any more matches in the future.""Ms. Jordan, as per the terms of your contract, the fee

"Alright." Pierce agreed as he pulled Millie into a deep embrace. He rested his chin gently in the crook of her neck and greedily breathed in her soothing fragrance. Being close to her calmed him and cleared his mind so that he could think rationally.Whenever he found himself on the brink of going down the wrong path, all he had to do was think about Millie. Whenever he imagined what she would do, it helped him to suppress the evil thoughts brewing inside him."I've made a public announcement about calling off my engagement with Charlotte. No one can gossip and spread rumors about you anymore," Pierce said."That's great. I'm feeling a little hungry. I'll go to the kitchen to grab something to eat," Millie replied, lazily stretching.She was confident that Pierce wouldn't let her suffer unjustly, so she trusted him to handle everything. However, as she left, she forgot to take her phone.Pierce was on a call with Tobias when Millie's phone screen lit up with an incoming call.
I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 414
Agnes was already deeply disappointed in Stefan, so she didn't really care how he chose to handle the matter. Even if he decided not to divorce Wanda, she wouldn't be surprised."I'm sorry, Grandma. I know I hurt you deeply over the past few weeks," Stefan apologetically said. "We are family and bound by blood. Even if you hurt me, we can always patch things up and fall back on our familial ties. But what about those who don't share our blood? When they've been hurt, it stays that way. Don't expect unconditional forgiveness from them."Agnes' words seemed to carry a deeper meaning.Stefan opened his mouth to say something, but no words came out. Agnes was right—Millie wouldn't forgive him unconditionally.After ending the call, Stefan didn't visit Wanda. Instead, he instructed others to care for her.Wanda, on the other hand, hoped to see him, as she felt increasingly uneasy. She had caused a massive scene, and Stefan had been genuinely distressed when bringing her to the ho

After writing the long letter in blood, Wanda attempted to commit suicide by overdosing on sleeping pills.She was aware that the drug she took would induce vomiting as a safeguard when consumed in large amounts. As long as one of the maids noticed and rushed her to the hospital, she wouldn't actually die.Millie had gambled with her life, so Wanda decided to take a similar risk. After swallowing most of the pills, she scattered the remaining ones on the floor to ensure her act was unmistakable.Yet, fear coursed through her. She was scared that she might go too far and accidentally kill herself for real. But she had no other options left.After a while, her body reacted. Her stomach churned violently and painfully, and cold sweat soaked her face as she turned ghostly pale. Foamy bile then surged up her throat as she dry-heaved and convulsed.The sensation was unbearable—there was burning pain in her stomach accompanied by dizziness and weakness.Wanda deliberately rolled off t

Robin and Rachel found themselves speechless.They had expected a lengthy argument—perhaps even a confrontation. But to their surprise, Stefan had made up his mind to divorce Wanda.Agnes took the divorce agreement from Stefan and glanced through it. She noticed that he had allocated a generous portion of his assets to Wanda. It was enough for her to live comfortably after getting divorced.Given that their prenuptial agreement stated that Wanda was entitled to nothing in the event of a divorce, this was an act of goodwill on Stefan's part. He was either doing this for the sake of the Leach family's reputation or to simply give himself peace of mind.Thus, Agnes refrained from commenting further. Instead, she sternly advised, "Since you've decided on this, don't let her sweet talk sway you into changing your mind.""Don't worry. It's for real this time. I'm cutting all ties with her," Stefan said with an air of finality."Good. Handle this yourself. We won't comment further,"

Pierce icily snapped, "What right do you have to be concerned about her? She's in this state because of you. You're not blameless.""I know. This time, I won't let Wanda off so easily," Stefan replied in a quiet voice."This time?" Pierce stepped closer, his imposing presence forcing Stefan to instinctively step back. "I'm not just talking about this time. I'm talking about everything you've done to her over the years! You stripped her of her confidence and made her fear love itself. "She's so hesitant and afraid of being hurt again—so much so that she can't fully commit to anyone. She's afraid that at the end of the day, she'll have nothing and no one. You've made her terrified of taking risks in love! You were the one who wronged her, yet I have to suffer all the consequences."She bent over backward for you, smoothed her edges, and lost herself in trying to revolve around your world. She sacrificed so much for you—how dare you betray her? She could have accepted any reason for
