Chapter 281

Millie refused to believe that a person could change so drastically without reason."Do you know the details of the birthday party kidnapping?" Millie asked."Unfortunately, I don't know anything about that," Julian replied.Millie suppressed her curiosity and picked up her phone. She thought of calling Pierce, but would he even tell her the truth?She rubbed her temples, debating that thought for a moment. In the end, she decided against it.After that, Millie pushed aside all distracting thoughts and focused on her work. She had several custom orders to complete, including one for Felicity Harmon, the daughter-in-law of a real estate tycoon. She had just finished drafting the design sketches and needed to discuss them with Felicity.So, Millie called her to arrange a meeting."I happen to be free today. I'm at Leach Manor. You can come over," Felicity said over the phone."Leach Manor?" Millie repeated."Yes, I'm having coffee with Mrs. Leach. Is there a problem?" Felicity

Chapter 282

Millie shook off Felicity's hand and walked away without looking back. Felicity was unwilling to let it go, so she went after Millie. "Wanda has been too soft on you. That's why you dare to be so audacious and trample all over her! If it were me, I'd skin you alive for your behavior—"As Felicity continued to rant, she reached out to grab Millie's shoulder. To her surprise, Millie grasped her hand and threw her to the floor with a clean over-the-shoulder toss with ease.Felicity cried out in pain, shocking the other three women. None of them could believe that Millie, who looked so slender and delicate, had just tossed the burly Felicity over her shoulder like it was nothing.Millie snapped, "Are you done? You've wasted my entire morning, and I haven't even demanded an apology from you. "Alright, then. Apologize now! You called me here when you had something going on and didn't have time for me. You'd been toying with me! Hurry up and apologize!""I-Is this how your studio tr

Chapter 283

Millie delivered a swift kick to Felicity's chest and slapped Wanda hard across the face. Then, she pretended to repeatedly hit Wanda by accident. The more Wanda tried to mediate, the more blows she received. On the other hand, Felicity suffered no major injuries despite looking disheveled."What's going on here? What do you take my house for?" The door suddenly burst open. Stefan was standing in the doorway with a thunderous expression.The moment Wanda saw him, she ran toward him like a damsel in distress with tears pitifully streaming down her face."Stefan, she hit me!" she wailed, clinging onto him."Why is it you again, Millie?" Stefan frowned as he stared at her with a complicated gaze.He remembered Millie as a gentle, soft-spoken woman—a timid little lamb who needed his love and protection. But now, she was like a fierce tigress with claws bared.He knew what type of woman he preferred, yet seeing this side of Millie stirred something within him. It irked him that he

Chapter 284

Stefan watched Millie's retreating figure with an ambivalent expression. He pondered on how she was willing to lower her pride for Pierce's sake. His hands silently clenched into fists as anger smoldered in his chest.Meanwhile, Millie had returned to the room where the women were. Though they had tidied themselves up, the scene was still chaotic. Felicity had a visible handprint on her face, and Wanda was pitifully clutching her stomach."What now? Are you here to beat us up again?" one of the women whimpered. They all trembled as they huddled together."No… I'm sorry for being impulsive earlier. I shouldn't have acted so recklessly. Felicity, I hope you can overlook my behavior and forgive me," Millie calmly spoke up.The room fell silent. None of them had expected Millie to back down so quickly."A-Are you being serious?" Felicity stammered, her voice shaking."Yes. I was wrong to lash out at you. I didn't consider the consequences. So, I'm sorry," Millie sincerely said w

Pierce did not have a speck of dust on him. It was an easy fight.Stefan looked mortified."Get a better fighter here!" Stefan demanded. "Mr. Atkinson, it's great that you're here. Your wife was misbehaving, so I just taught her a lesson out of kindness."Upon hearing this, Pierce pulled Millie behind him and stared at Felicity. She did not dare to meet his gaze as it was too intimidating."She's my wife. Who do you think you are to touch her?""She hit me just now!" Felicity yelled."Millie, is that true?" Pierce asked."She started it. Of course, I didn't just stand there and take it. She made things difficult for me, and they even ganged up on me. I was simply returning the favor," Millie replied. Millie didn't know why, but she felt assured in Pierce's presence, and her suppressed emotions began to surface.At that moment, she forgot that they were on bad terms and that she hadn't forgiven him."In that case, my wife was simply defending herself," Pierce said."Defend

Chapter 286

Stefan's expression faltered and darkened. For once, he couldn't come up with anything to refute Pierce.It was true that Millie had never come to Leach Manor willingly—it was always forced. So, he didn't exactly have any grounds to argue back.In the end, Pierce grabbed Millie's hand and led her away. After they got inside the car, the atmosphere was so tense that it was almost suffocating. Millie could barely breathe under the pressure.Was Pierce angry? But what did he have to be angry about? She had won the fight, and if it weren't for the potential fallout affecting the Atkinson family, she wouldn't have bowed her head and apologized in the first place.She should be the one to feel wronged. So, why was he the one sulking?Millie cleared her throat, breaking the silence and finding her voice. "Well… you saw it yourself. I'm nothing but trouble. You should divorce me as soon as possible and stay as far away from me as you can. I don't follow the rules, I'm fiery, and I don

Chapter 287

Thomas had mentioned the horse track before and had encouraged Millie to try it out, but she hadn't taken it seriously. But upon seeing the majestic horses now, she found herself intrigued."Can I ride this one?" she asked, pointing at a tall, spirited horse."Not this one. It's too wild and still being trained. If you want to ride, I'll find you a gentler one," Thomas replied."Okay!" Millie's eyes sparkled with excitement.Thomas then led her to the stables and carefully selected a calm and obedient horse. He started by teaching Millie how to mount the horse, then walked alongside her, holding the reins to help her get familiar with riding."Talk to it, pat it gently, and build some trust," he instructed."Got it," Millie said, stroking the horse's mane and softly speaking to it.After a few laps around the paddock, Millie gained enough confidence to ride on her own. She kept the pace slow and leisurely circled the track. There were other riders in the large paddock as wel

"Are you okay?"Millie anxiously asked."I'm fine," Pierce replied. He held onto Millie with one arm for support and stood up, his other arm limp and dangling by the side of his body, obviously dislocated.Thomas quickly came to check on him and said, "Follow me to the office. I'll reattach it for you. "Millie, you should also go to the clinic and do a checkup to see if you have any other issues."Pierce's arm was dislocated, and that was something the clinic couldn't fix. However, since Thomas was an expert at this, he took Pierce away. When Pierce took off his shirt, there was a huge bruise on his back."Just bear with it for a moment. You'll be fine in no time." Thomas held Pierce's arm, gently rotating it before suddenly using force on it.Pierce's face turned deathly pale, with tiny droplets of sweat forming on his forehead.Before his arm was reattached, any small movements would cause immense pain. After the reattachment though, his entire arm went numb.Pierce exhaled

"That's great. Go and comfort Millie. You should be happy if she nags at you. You can cry when she stops nagging at you someday," Thomas said."Thomas, you give good advice, but you should really talk less," Pierce simply said. Then, he put on his shirt, intending to go see Millie.For a moment, Thomas wasn't sure if that was a compliment or an insult. Meanwhile, Millie, who was outside the door, heard some noise and quietly left.She only had a scrape and was fine after applying some iodine at the clinic. Worried about Pierce's injury, she came to check in on him and happened to overhear this part. So, Pierce used to have a crush on a woman from a long time ago. He had been seriously injured in a mission and became unconscious, and he kept calling the woman's name and even had her picture on him.This was in Pierce's past, and Millie knew that she shouldn't get involved. Moreover, she was determined to get divorced, so this issue shouldn't have anything to do with her. Yet som

Chapter 290

Millie immediately went to see the best psychiatrist in town."Don't be nervous. Please sit down, and let's have a chat," said the psychiatrist, Bruce Renner. He looked so young that Millie had some doubts about his credentials.The decoration in this place did not make it look like a clinic. Rather, it lookedmore like a cozy little home, and there was no pungent smell of disinfectant either.Bruce asked Millie what she wanted to drink—there was coffee, tea, and even latte.Millie felt nervous, so she ordered a latte.Bruce then brought her the latte and smiled at her. "So, what issues are you having?""I think I have Stockholm Syndrome. I know full well that he's not a good guy, but I can't control my own feelings. I care about him… I'm smitten with him," Millie replied."What did he do to you? Was it psychological or physical abuse?"Millie pressed her lips together. She was not sure if she should tell Bruce everything. But he was a psychiatrist. Logically, she should be
