"It's not even real…" Millie couldn't help but mutter softly under her breath.Pierce's face immediately darkened, and she stuck out her tongue in fear, deciding not to say anything further.Pierce then took Millie home, but he didn't truly ignore Samantha. He sent someone to follow her instead.Samantha had been away from Arbelton for a long time and had no close friends left. The only place she could think of going was the Leach Manor, especially since she had once dated Stefan.But it was all just casual as neither of them had ever taken it seriously."Ste, my brother doesn't want me anymore…""What happened?" Stefan had no romantic feelings for Samantha. When his parents sent Wanda abroad, he'd become reckless and started fooling around, dating whoever came along.He'd been involved with Samantha for over six months but always treated her like a little sister, never crossing any lines. He wasn't cruel enough to truly harm a good friend's sister."My brother… He brought home

Tears welled up in Samantha's eyes, looking pitiful as she reluctantly glanced at Millie."I'm sorry," she said loudly, her voice full of resentment. She then stormed upstairs, slamming her door shut behind her.Millie gave Pierce a helpless look. "Was that really necessary? I don't need a fake apology; it'll just make her resent me even more.""She needs discipline, or she'll become uncontrollable. I'm sorry you have to endure this now, but she'll come around eventually.""I'm going to rest…" Millie said as she turned to head upstairs, but Pierce stopped her."I moved your things to my room.""What?""Sammy will probably report to Grandpa. Don't worry, I've set up a folding bed; it won't be a problem.""Alright, that works."Millie didn't say much else and went to the master bedroom. She noticed her belongings neatly arranged.Meanwhile, the bed was made with perfect corners like a military cot. It almost made her burst into laughter.As she was working on her laptop, she h

The room door opened, and Millie saw Pierce's tall figure walk in. She instinctively straightened her back, trying not to look disheveled."How did things go at the hospital? Was the scrape serious?""She has a congenital blood clotting disorder, so the family usually takes extra precautions. Even the smallest cut can be a problem because it's hard to stop her bleeding.""It's that serious? I… I didn't push her…""I know.""You… know?"This time, it was Millie's turn to be stunned. She had expected to explain herself for a long time, with her throat drying out in the process. But Pierce simply said he knew."I was worried about her condition at the time. She needed immediate medical attention, so I didn't have time to explain.""Oh… So, she's alright now?""She's fine now. It was a false alarm, but we still need to be careful." Pierce wearily rubbed his temples."Have you washed up?""Yes, I have.""Then go to bed early. I'll wash up too."After showering, Pierce unfolded

"I've arranged for a driver to take you elsewhere. There will be a housekeeper and a driver ready for you. If you need anything, call me," Pierce said calmly.Samantha stood there, stunned. She never expected she would be the one to leave. She had always stayed here, but now that her brother had a new wife, he no longer doted on her. She felt deeply wronged, and tears started streaming down her face."Pierce, are you really sending me away?""I'm doing this to protect you. If you keep getting hurt, it means you and Millie don't get along. It's for your own good.""I…" Samantha deflated. "It's not that we don't get along; I was just careless. I'll be more careful next time."Her brother cared most about her well-being. She had hoped to drive Millie away, but her plan backfired, and now she was the one leaving.She had no choice but to back down."Then apologize to your sister-in-law. You got hurt and scared her.""Apologize to her? I'm the one who got hurt!""Then moving out wi

Millie was taken aback. She couldn't believe she was Pierce's first woman."Millie Jordan!"Pierce's voice took on a different tone, and Millie realized she had gone too far. The towel was sticking up in a way that couldn't be missed."I'm just curious.""Curiosity killed the cat. Have you heard of it?"Pierce walked up aggressively, cornering Millie against a glass cabinet. Inside it were all sorts of fancy watches and jewelry.Feeling the cold surface on her back, Millie felt a chill running down her spine."What do you want?""No peeking. Just give me a hand.""Why can't I look?""It's filthy.""I don't want—""I'm begging you," Pierce whispered into Millie's ear. He kept his voice down as he tried to hold back.His pleading sounded like a puppy in distress. She felt her heart skip a beat. Eventually, she gave in; no one could resist his surprisingly cute side.Pierce appeared fearless and untouchable in public, exuding a haughty and sophisticated presence. But in a si

"I just assume you don't want to sleep with me," Pierce replied with a raspy voice.Millie responded, "Why?""I'm stubborn, brooding, and downright scary, so I'm not who you think I am. I figure you'd rather avoid someone like me, so what's wrong with keeping things the way they are? "We're married, but I haven't actually done anything with you. That way, if you decide to marry someone else in the future, it'll make things smoother with your next husband."I'm fine with anybody else but Stefan, Millie. If you find someone you like who truly loves you back, I'm willing to let you go.""What's wrong with Stefan?""I don't think much of him." Pierce scoffed at the mention of Stefan. He had always disapproved of Stefan's views on love and believed that Stefan wasn't worthy of Millie."So, what kind of person are you, actually?""I've warned you. Curiosity can get you in trouble."Pierce gazed down at her, his eyes narrowed with a hint of irritation.Millie could more or less fig

Lying on the bed, Samantha hugged a plushie with tears streaming down her cheeks. She looked utterly pitiful.Pierce began, "Who told you that? I still care about you as much as I always have, and now you have another person to love and care for you. Isn't that amazing?" "Why would I want her attention? I don't even like her. How about getting a different wife, Pierce? The woman Mom and Dad have found for you is great, and I like her a lot. She's graceful and classy, so he's a perfect match for you."Pierce firmly stated, "But I like Millie."Hearing that, Samantha's eyes were filled with tears, and she stared at Pierce in disbelief without blinking.She knew him too well. When he said he liked someone, he meant it and wouldn't change his mind easily. He was a stubborn and sentimental person who could hold onto his feelings for someone for years."Why, Pierce? What did she do to make you like her? Is she even worthy?"Pierce's face fell. "Watch your tone, Sammy. Millie deserves

Stefan's intense stare made Millie feel uneasy, so she lowered her head and sipped on the coffee to avoid his gaze."Don't go ruining yourself just to get back at me, Millie. I know I hurt you deeply. If Wanda wasn't in the picture, I'd have chosen you. What a pity… You need to stop. If you're short on money, let me know and I'll help you.""We're not like that if that's what you're thinking.""What else could it be? Pierce is already married, and you've always despised the idea of being a third wheel. You couldn't get over me being with Wanda, so why lower yourself to be Pierce's mistress?""Why don't you ask your best friend about it? If there's nothing else, I'm leaving."Millie didn't feel like continuing the conversation. She turned to walk away, but Stefan called out to her again. "If you're set on being someone's mistress, you might as well be mine."She immediately stopped in her tracks and gaped at him in disbelief. "What did you just say?"Stefan seemed to have given i

"No! Mr. Atkinson, you can't do this! I did it for you!" Carlos cried."I don't know Yulia personally, nor did I secretly ask you to take care of her. No wonder she kept misinterpreting my intentions and tried to get close to me. You were part of the reason that she's delusional," Pierce said with a scoff.Yulia must have assumed that all the special treatment Carlos had given her was Pierce's doing. Naturally, she would have started to fantasize.Pierce also reflected on himself. He never should have sympathized with her or helped her in the first place. When he saw her, he had been reminded of Millie from years ago and had wanted to make up for his inability to help her back then in some small way. Never did he expect that it would cause so much trouble for him.Whatever compensation John decided to ask from Yulia was none of his business too.After that, Pierce sent Carlos away and began addressing the false rumors spreading online."Well, well. You seem to have a lot of rom

Yulia believed that Pierce must have felt the same way. Since fate had brought them together, how could she possibly give up?Now that Pierce had paid for her hospital stay, she felt she should recover properly and not waste his kindness.…Meanwhile, back at Atkinson Group, Tobias never mentioned the matter to Pierce. The situation had been urgent when Yulia was hospitalized, and anyone would have covered the cost in such circumstances. After all, a life was at stake.Tobias reported, "Mr. Atkinson, the former Head of Sales, Carlos Reyes, keeps asking to see you. The receptionist has alerted me about this multiple times. He said he needs to see you for something important. Do you want to meet him?""Is he the one Mills fired?" Pierce coolly looked up."Yes," Tobias replied."Useless trash like him isn't worth my time," Pierce indifferently responded. After all, anyone who crossed Millie had also crossed him.So, Tobias immediately informed Carlos that if he ever came again, he

Yulia kept waiting for an opportunity, but the two times she saw Pierce, he was with Millie. The sight of this drove her mad with jealousy. How she wished she could tear Millie apart. If it weren't for her, she wouldn't be struggling just to get into Atkinson Group now.And so, Yulia obsessively staked out the parking lot every day like a madwoman. As a result, she had grown noticeably thinner. Sometimes, she saw Tobias. However, she didn't approach him. But finally, after nearly a week, she found her chance.Pierce had arrived alone with no one in the passenger seat. Just as he got out of the car, a shadow flitted into his peripheral view. As a former police officer, his reflexes were sharp. He immediately subdued the person with a grappling move."Ow… Ouch! It hurts…" Yulia pitifully whimpered.Pierce hadn't seen Yulia's face yet. He only realized that it was a woman and that she posed no real threat. So, he released his grip.However, upon realizing that it was Yulia, he

"Thank you for stopping me from acting recklessly, Mr. Atkinson," John said, wincing from the pain."You need medical attention," Pierce reminded him. He didn't even spare Yulia a glance while she was lying unconscious on the ground.Soon, Yulia regained consciousness in the hospital. Only her mother, Helena, was by her bedside. She looked around but didn't see her beloved Pierce."Pierce… Is he away to get my medicine?" Yulia weakly asked, struggling to sit up.Helena wept and said, "That man you keep talking about never showed up—not even once.""Impossible!" Yulia gasped in disbelief, her eyes widening. She had been in such a dire state. How could he not come to visit her?Helena went on, "Not only that, but the club is holding you accountable, and Mr. Presta is also demanding compensation. We've received two court notices. The lawyer told me that we need to pay five million dollars in total!""Five million dollars is nothing. If I ask Pierce, he'll definitely give it to
I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 586
As soon as Yulia walked in, her eyes were wet with tears. She looked pitifully at Pierce, acting as if the nightclub had forced her into selling her body and that she had suffered countless injustices.She walked straight toward Pierce. "Mr. Atkinson, I never expected us to meet again in a place like this."Pierce frowned because he wasn't exactly familiar with her.While the other hostesses were enthusiastically entertaining other men by pouring drinks and joking around, Yulia was the only one wearing a mournful expression. Clearly, she was dampening the mood."Mr. Atkinson, do you have any idea how miserable my life has been since Mrs. Atkinson kicked me out of Atkinson Group? My father went back to gambling, and those people even took my mother away. If I didn't return to this line of work, I wouldn't have any way to survive."They were originally willing to give me a one-month grace period because I had a stable salary at Atkinson Group. But now… Mrs. Atkinson has ruined me!"

"Ms. Shaw, if you don't leave now, someone will have to escort you out," Tobias said.So, Yulia slunk downstairs in embarrassment. She even got to see Tobias harshly reprimanding the receptionist."Are you out of your mind? How dare you bring just anyone to the CEO's office? You're fired!" Tobias sternly said.The receptionist argued, "But, Mr. Shaw, this isn't my fault. She's someone Mr. Atkinson seems take special care of—""That was nothing more than a few minor favors. You failed to do your job properly, so don't make excuses. Pack your things and leave," Tobias stated indifferently.The receptionist felt deeply wronged, and her gaze toward Yulia turned resentful.Yulia didn't understand where things had gone wrong. Pierce had seemed to be so concerned about her previously, so why was he being so cold to her now? Had Millie discovered something? Was that why he wanted to cut ties with her completely?Feeling lost and dejected, Yulia left the company, only to run into Carlo
I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 584
After that, Millie went upstairs to look for Pierce and told him the story of her firing Carlos and Yulia."Okay," Pierce nonchalantly said. He didn't even look up once, and his tone sounded very calm as well."I've been laying off employees without your consent. Don't you have anything to say about that?"Pierce laughed after hearing what Millie said. "You're my wife, so you also have a say in Atkinson Group. You're just exercising your authority, so why would I say anything about it? I know you're not a reckless person. If you fired them, you must have had your own reasonings." Pierce didn't even question why Millie had fired two employees or the reason behind their layoffs.What's done was already done. He couldn't care less about the two employees who got fired."Does this mean that I can do whatever I want as long as I'm here?" Millie asked."Of course! Whatever I own is also yours. I'll even let you sit on my lap if you want." Pierce sounded exactly like a king back in th

While some people chose to stay away from Yulia to avoid getting into trouble, there were still a few who sided with her. Then again, these people were just going to use her as a stepping stone to climb the corporate ladder with less effort."You're firing me? What did I even do wrong?" Yulia confronted the HR Department."The case that you messed up here has cost Atkinson Group millions of dollars. This big of a screw-up is enough to get you fired."Even if Yulia filed for labor arbitration, she would not receive any compensation. But of course, she couldn't be bothered by that small amount of money anyway. As long as she managed to keep her job in Atkinson Group, she would still be working under Pierce's leadership and was bound to see him again eventually. Unfortunately, she was about to leave the company for good. Now how was she supposed to see Pierce again?"I have to go find Mr. Reyes," she said.However, when she came to Carlos' office, he seemed to be in a gloomy
I'm Out of Your League Now Chapter 582
Millie had the distinct feeling that Yulia and her colleague were talking about her, but she had no proof. All she could see were their furtive glances.She became annoyed by their persistent glances and said, "If you two have something to say, why don't you say it out loud? Are you gossiping about me?""Of course not! I have no idea why you'd say that, Mrs. Atkinson," Yulia replied with a smile."You better not be lying."Yulia and her colleague left the elevator when they reached their floor, leaving Millie standing there with a frown.Millie just couldn't bring herself to like Yulia. It led to her pondering whether she should just fire Yulia. That way, she wouldn't have to see her every time she visited Atkinson Group.The strange thing was that Millie had never seen Yulia before when she was still working here. But now, she ran into Yulia almost every single time she came to Atkinson Group.In the end, Millie made up her mind to just fire Yulia.Instead of heading to the CE
