I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 69
"Yes, you'll be okay. I'll be with you for the time being."Millie nodded, feeling a little dazed.Later on, Pierce's phone rang again. It was a call from the insurance company. Millie had left his car by the road, and the insurance company had sent someone to retrieve it.After Pierce brought her home, Millie shut herself in her room. It was only then that she felt safe.Pierce headed to the study to check the surveillance footage for that stretch of road.Millie had parked the car by the road and called someone. Suddenly, the other car changed lanes and drove toward her.The driver was a professional, so he couldn't possibly have committed a stupid mistake like that.He had clearly done that on purpose.There was something more to this legislator than met the eye.Perhaps he was trying to make himself known this way, and he thought that the person in the car was Pierce.This might be a sort of challenge.The legislator must have had ill intentions.He was being cocky exac

"I'm okay, and I've gotten much better. Can you please not go? Just stay here with me, okay?"Perhaps because Millie had been sick, now that she had woken up, her weak voice was filled with fatigue.Pierce wanted to reprimand her for trying to end her own life, but when he saw her current condition, he suppressed the urge."I'll be here, then. I'm not going anywhere."Pierce stayed by Millie's side, but he was still worried about her health. He pressed the call button, and the doctor came over to examine Millie. Millie's fever had gone down, and she would be fine for now.To be safe, the doctor suggested that she stay in the hospital for one more day, but she could also go home right away.Millie chose to go home.She didn't want to stay in an unfamiliar place."Pierce, let's go home, alright? I don't want to stay here.""Okay. Let's go home, then."Millie changed her clothes, but she didn't have the energy to walk. She was going to ask Pierce to get a wheelchair for her, but

William continued, "It wasn't until you arrested him that I realized his whereabouts. I was shocked to learn he had engaged in criminal activities. Knowing the trouble he caused you, I felt deeply regretful and immediately arranged to meet you to offer my apologies."I've also increased manpower. Anyone within my jurisdiction who sees that scoundrel will ensure he faces justice.""Thank you for your effort," Pierce replied calmly. His expression was unreadable. It was unclear whether he believed William or not."By the way, it's quite a coincidence that I ran into that lady's car yesterday. I didn't realize she had a connection with you. Are you two a couple?" William asked."She's my wife." When Pierce said that, his gaze was intensely fixed on William.William seemed surprised. "I see. It seems we are quite fated. By the way, I have a project I'd like to work with Atkinson Group on. I'll visit you at your office next time with my project proposal.""Of course, you're welcome an

After William left, Millie quickly came downstairs."What did you two talk about? Are you okay? You don't look well," Millie asked with concern.To her surprise, Pierce suddenly pulled her into a tight embrace. She could feel his body trembling slightly, as if he were deeply shaken by something."A-Are you alright?"She tried to pull away to see his face, but his hoarse voice whispered in her ear, "Don't move. Just let me hold you."Millie froze at his words and didn't dare move again.After hesitating for a long moment, she gently placed her hands on his back, trying to soothe him. He was holding her so tightly that it hurt, but she didn't complain.As the seconds ticked by, he finally released her."It's nothing. I'll take you to the nursing home in a bit. You can stay with Grandpa for a while. I have some things I need to take care of.""Is it William?""Millie, I want to lie to you, but I can't. I'm afraid you'll lower your guard and won't be cautious around him. He's the

"The best way now is to find a reason to detain him and investigate slowly. Are his passports and other documents all in order?" Jason asked."There's nothing we can exploit." Thomas was a seasoned detective skilled in handling cases.Being a customs officer was inherently dangerous, making it crucial to stay under the radar. Pierce had no intention of involving his old comrades.Thomas' and Jason's families were both in Arbelton, where Pierce had the means to provide protection."Wait, I think I might have an idea. Pierce, didn't you rescue a victim from that ship? Let William know that this victim tipped you off, hence why you could act so quickly. According to their rules, they'll need to catch and kill that person to avenge their fallen comrades."Pierce, you could find that person and then leak the information. William sure has a lot of guys under him to make him rise to this level. If he wants to maintain his authority, even if he doesn't want to take action, someone will pu

"Millie, are you listening?" Thomas asked, noticing Millie's silence after he finished speaking.It took Millie a while to come back to her senses. She gripped her phone tightly. Her palm was drenched in cold sweat."Yes… I'm listening. I'll talk to Pierce. I understand your point. Sacrificing one person could save many others.""It's not about sacrifice. We ensure the bait's safety through proper measures. In special circumstances, we handle things differently. William is not just any smuggler, and both Pierce and I are retired professionals. Sometimes, unconventional methods are necessary.""I understand. I'll talk to him.""You're always so understanding, Millie. Thank you."As soon as the call ended, Millie leaned against the wall, feeling weak.She didn't want to be used as bait. She didn't want to go through another terrifying experience. Despite their protection, she was scared. What if something went wrong and they couldn't protect her?She even had a fleeting thought o

"Why'd you call me over so urgently? Do we have a new plan?" Jason asked, his face full of confusion.Suddenly, Pierce threw a punch at him, leaving Jason with a bruised nose."What the hell?" Thomas jumped in and quickly pulled Pierce back.Jason, now on the ground, was just as confused. "What's gotten into you, Pierce?""Why did you tell Millie?""Millie? Millie knows? How could she? I didn't tell her." Jason was stunned. His confusion quickly turned to panic."If not you, then who?""You can't blame Jason for this. Millie called me, and I mentioned it casually, asking her to talk to you. So, have you agreed? Where's the victim? Have you explained everything to her? Is she willing to cooperate?" Thomas asked with an eager expression.At this, both Pierce's and Jason's expressions turned grim.Pierce clenched his fists so tightly that the veins on the back of his hands bulged, as if he were just moments away from landing another punch—this time on Thomas.But eventually, his

After their discussion, Thomas and Jason left. Thomas' gaze toward Millie was apologetic.Millie knew how much they valued Pierce. If they had known she was the victim, they never would have done such a thing.This was entirely an accident, indicating that it was meant to be her fate.After they left, the room fell into an eerie silence, with the weight of their breaths almost palpable.Pierce wrapped his arms tightly around Millie from behind. "I know sacrifices are inevitable. I'm prepared to make one if necessary, but I don't want you to be involved."He couldn't bear to think of a day when Millie might have to sacrifice herself too."What, are you giving me special treatment?" Millie turned to face him, her eyes twinkling with a gentle smile.She tried to sound light-hearted to comfort him, though her tightly clenched fists betrayed her inner anxiety."Pierce, we're doing the right thing, so let's not worry about anything else."Pierce remained silent. His expression was g

Stefan and Wanda bared their hearts to each other, revealing everything honestly.Wanda had cried uncontrollably by the sea side, and each tear that fell from her face felt like a hit to Stefan's heart."I didn't betray you. It was your parents who told me to marry him. They said that it was the only way to make you completely give up. I shouldn't have tried to look for you… Just leave me," Wanda said.Stefan was furious when he heard that, but what he felt even more was heartache for her.He held Wanda incredibly tight, completely unwilling to let her go.Stefan had been with many women before, but the first was always the most unforgettable.Wanda was his first.Wanda hadn't gotten a divorce, and he was still with Millie. So, the two of them couldn't be together openly.But Stefan's trips abroad became more frequent. His parents had passed away, and Agnes was in poor health. Millie was completely unaware as well.Nothing could stop him from pursuing his love.Later on, Agne

Just as Stefan was about to knock on the door, he heard Agnes' words from inside. His whole body stiffened as his hand froze in mid-air."Mrs. Leach Senior, it's all in the past now," Millie softly said.Agnes sighed. "How unfortunate for the Leach family. Now, the family will never rid itself of Wanda. You don't know this, but her family used to be on par with the Leach family. However, her parents were greedy and unscrupulous. "They went down the wrong path, which eventually led to their assets being seized by the government. Her parents couldn't bear the thought of going to prison and ended up jumping to their deaths instead."Agnes continued, "Out of respect for the ties between our families, we extended a helping hand, and Wanda and Stefan had a marriage arrangement. "We felt that the sins of the parents should not pass down to the daughter. So, when we saw that Wanda had inherited her parents' deviousness, we'd hoped to guide her and prevent her from going astray."If thi

Stefan said, "Didn't you once say that you'd be willing to share a husband with Millie if it were ancient times? Didn't you say that since she divorced Pierce, it was the perfect chance for me to make her my mistress? "Wanda, it hasn't even been that long since you said all of that. Have you already forgotten? "If it bothered you, you could have just told me directly. I would have been considerate of your feelings. Instead, you've been acting so hypocritical. You say one thing to my face and do something else behind my back!"Stefan continued, "I admit that I do have some inappropriate thoughts about Millie. She frustrates me to a degree that I've never felt before. But my feelings for her are borne out of competitiveness and my desire to outmatch Pierce. "It's possible that my feelings for her are shallow and that you're the one I've always truly loved. But the way you're acting will only make it harder for me to let go of Millie. It's making my love for you slowly wear thin as

The guests came over from the hall due to the ruckus."Wanda, have you gone mad?" Stefan asked in exasperation."Have I gone mad, or have you gone too far? Look at what I've been through! Yet, you're still sneaking around behind my back. Where's your conscience?" Wanda howled.Stefan's face darkened in utmost displeasure, and Agnes was so furious that she almost fainted."I didn't cheat! A maid accidentally got my clothes wet, so they're being dried. It'll be done soon. Can you stop causing a scene?" Stefan tried to explain.Wanda exclaimed, "You're lying through your teeth without even trying to make it believable now! "Listen here, everyone. The woman Stefan is cheating on me with is Millie Jordan. The two of them had been in a relationship for three years before he married me. Even after Stefan and I got married, they've kept their relationship alive. "This isn't entirely Stefan's fault. It's that shameless vixen, Millie, who's behind everything. She's skilled at playing me

The maid had just caught a glimpse from afar, so she wasn't exactly sure what she'd seen. But since Wanda asked, she had to answer.Wanda felt her blood rush to her head upon hearing that. She knew it!Stefan had stopped her from coming to this family gathering but invited Millie—an outsider! It was obvious that they wanted to create an opportunity for her and Stefan to get closer.Wanda knew that Agnes disliked her. Plus, since she was still recovering and unable to be intimate with Stefan, Agnes had seized the chance to help Millie gain favor. Otherwise, why else would she have shown up right when she was at a disadvantage?It was all a conspiracy—a scheme!As Wanda was fuming with anger, she stormed off in the direction that the maid had indicated. Meanwhile, another maid had already informed Agnes about this. Agnes frowned when she heard that Wanda had arrived. "Where did she go?" she grimly asked."She's heading to the laundry room," the maid reported."I'll go over.

"You're overthinking it. I never once thought about trying to match you two together," Agnes said."Are you sure you never thought about it?" Stefan felt his pride take a hit upon hearing these words.Agnes retorted, "Do you think you're such a catch? If I had a daughter, and she wanted to marry you, I would break both her legs. "What I'm trying to say is that Pierce will be coming over with Millie later. Whatever gripe you two have, I don't care. Just don't cause trouble here.""Pierce? Why is he coming? They're divorced! This is a family gathering! What right does he have to be here?" Stefan's face darkened."Since when does being divorced mean that they can't show up together?" Agnes sharply responded."Of course it does! Divorce means it's over. They're nothing to each other anymore. Why does he keep clinging onto her? Where's his dignity?"Agnes' face turned cold. "Oh, so you do understand that after breaking up, you're not supposed to interfere in their life anymore. Then

Bill was in a tough spot. Handing over the phone did not seem right, but not handing it over was also not an option.Bill hesitated and kept hold of the phone. "Mrs. Leach Senior, Millie can go, but only if Pierce goes with her.""And why is that? What's their relationship now? They're already divorced. Stop dragging things out! Your grandson might have no shame, but Millie does!" Agnes responded."Fine, then neither of them will go!" Bill exclaimed before hanging up the phone abruptly.Millie felt a bit flustered. The two of them were over 150 years old combined, yet they argued like children."So, Grandpa, should I go or not?""Go… Go, but take Pierce with you. I'll have him bring you back here later. I still need you around, Millie.""But we're divorced.""Pierce can still visit Mrs. Leach Senior.""But this is a family gathering.""He's shameless enough to crash it without an invitation."Pierce stood by the door with a dark expression. He seemed to want to blast Bill ou

"You're overthinking it. It won't happen," Stefan said."Then take me with you!" Wanda retorted.Stefan considered backing down, but he remembered what Millie had said before. Millie never wanted to see Wanda again. He was quite concerned for Wanda. He was worried about her discovering that she would never be able to have children again, especially when she had not even finished recovering from her miscarriage. How would she handle it?Besides, she should not be going out during her recovery period in the first place. He was just trying to take care of her in every way."I said, stay home and rest!" Stefan's tone turned harsher.That was no longer a discussion but a command.Wanda's face turned pale. She stared at him in disbelief. "Stefan, who are you choosing, me or Millie?"Stefan furrowed his brow as he felt the frustration bubbling inside. "Why are you bringing this up again? Of course, I would choose you!""Is it because I had a miscarriage? Do you despise me? Do you wa

Pierce tried to push Millie away. But just as he managed to push her a little farther away, she quickly snuggled back against him."Hug me..." she mumbled, clinging to him even tighter. Her soft, pliant chest clung to his arm.His breathing became ragged.Pierce had no idea how he made it through the night, desperately holding back his desires. He didn't even dare move.He began to doubt himself, wondering if something was wrong with him, given how calm he was in such a situation.Time seemed to drag on endlessly.The next morning, Millie woke up feeling refreshed and energized—she had slept well through the night. She couldn't help but stretch her arms.Unexpectedly, she touched something firm and warm.She froze for a moment, and her mind went blank as she stared at Pierce. His clothes were crumpled—they were the same ones from yesterday.How did she end up in bed with Pierce?Pierce's eyes snapped open. They were red-rimmed, a clear sign of a restless night. Even his voice
