Chapter 92

Author: Feminine Blade
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

    Millie just transferred the money to Wanda.Wanda called right away and asked, "What's this about? Why are you suddenly giving me money?""The money is from Stefan. He thought I might be struggling and told me to spend it however I wanted. He even mentioned I could ask for more if needed, but I didn't want it. Since he refused to take it back, I figured giving it to you was the same. After all, you both are family.""Are you serious? There's no way Stefan is giving you money.""Think whatever you like."After hanging up, Millie sent a text to Stefan. "I don't want your money. We've cut ties, so you have no reason to spend on me. I handed all the money to Wanda.""Why are you so difficult, Millie? I've said everything I could, and you still won't budge."Stefan was quite annoyed with Millie repeatedly turning down his kindness.Millie didn't bother replying. Stefan should worry about handling Wanda instead.At this point, Millie had finished making Pierce's custom suit. But S

    Pierce held Millie's waist firmly, relishing the moist, velvety touch of her tongue. Her lips, soft as velvet and painted crimson, kissed him with a tenderness that seemed to be stealing his very soul. By the time Millie was done, several hickeys were visible. "That should be enough, right?""Yeah, that should do the trick.""If there's nothing else, I'll head out first. Make sure to try on the sample outfit later and see if it fits. If it's not the right size, we'll fix it."Millie wanted to go, but Pierce still held her tightly in his arms. "What are you doing?""Well, I need to return the favor.""What do you mean? It was you—"Millie gasped in surprise. Instead of leaving hickeys on her neck, Pierce gently tugged her collar open, kissed her on the collarbone, and slowly kissed down from there.He continued kissing her, his breath a gentle caress as he savored every moment. But he seemed to know his limits and didn't take things too far, making it as intimate as possibl

    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
