All Chapters of I'm Out of Your League Now: Chapter 381 - Chapter 390

Jacob left, leaving Millie alone outside the operating room. It was pure torment, and her mind raced with countless questions.Why? Why was Pierce calling her name? Didn't he have a long-lost first love he secretly admired? Could that first love be her?Nevertheless, Millie couldn't recall ever saving him, nor could she understand why both three years ago and now, her presence seemed to drive him to irrational extremes—so much so that he would even risk his life.Could her words really carry so much weight? Who was the person Pierce loved so deeply? Was it her? Where did this love begin, and why did it run so deep? Why couldn't she remember ever crossing paths with him?Millie's head throbbed in pain as a fragment of a memory flickered briefly in her mind. It seemed almost within reach, but when she tried desperately to grasp it, it slipped away and left no trace.Millie's breathing grew ragged, and the pain became unbearable. Only by forcing herself not to think about it coul

Could Pierce hear her at all? Did anything she said make a difference?Millie began doubting herself even more. Was the doctor wrong? And had she been mistaken too?Millie stared fixedly at Pierce, who was still lying motionlessly on the bed. 23 hours had passed. When the doctor came by, he shook his head and sighed.Jacob arrived shortly after. His expression was grave and tinged with sadness, as though he was mourning the loss of a promising and talented young man.Everyone in the room was deep in sorrow."Pierce, are you… not going to wake up?" Millie's voice was hoarse. She hadn't eaten or drunk anything. Her nerves were so frayed that she was on the brink of collapse."I knew it. I'm not enough to wake you… I was never that important." Millie let out a bitter laugh. She then said, "If you die, I'll have to carry the guilt of your death. Every time I think of you, I'll feel responsible. They all pinned their hopes on me, but I couldn't wake you. "Am I supposed to take

Every step Millie took required immense courage.Finally, she stood in front of the body. Her hands shook even more violently as she reached out, inch by inch, until her fingers brushed the edge of the white sheet.She took a deep breath and pulled the sheet back.But before she could fully see Pierce's face, a large hand suddenly covered her eyes. "Don't look. He died horribly and was disfigured beyond recognition. I'm afraid it'll scare you," said a familiar voice from behind.Millie's mind went blank.The voice belonged to Pierce. She would never mistake his voice—not in this lifetime.The hand over her eyes was real too. Her back was pressed tightly against his chest, and the warmth radiating from him was undeniable.Pierce was alive.Millie's lashes trembled and lightly brushed against his palm. Then, hot tears uncontrollably fell from her eyes."Millie, I can't hold on much longer. Will you catch me?" His voice was hoarse and strained. Upon hearing that, Millie's h

Millie believed that she had to take it slow because getting this clam to open up would take patience.Pierce's face turned ghastly pale as if Millie had just exposed every dark secret he had kept hidden. Her tone was full of disdain, and her sharp gaze felt like daggers.Pierce could deduce the decision she'd made. After all, someone as complicated and difficult as him would be way too exhausting to deal with.Pierce had no idea who he could confide in. He wanted to tell Millie all about himself, as she was the one person in this world he trusted unconditionally. She was also the one he was willing to give everything to.But how could a man say such things? It would sound too sentimental—and worse, it would make him seem like a complete lunatic."Alright, I understand," Pierce muttered, lowering his head. His voice was heavy with resignation.Millie was caught off guard. "You understand? Understand what?""Leave. I won't blame you," he softly said."You still have the nerve to

Millie had never been able to afford Emily's medical treatment and had constantly worried that the hospital would demand payment. Thankfully, the hospital never pressed them for money. She had assumed it was simply a debt she would have to settle later.When Stefan stepped in to help, she paid the hospital bill in full, believing her luck had turned. It never occurred to her that Pierce had been silently assisting her all along.At that time, she did have fleeting suspicions, but the chaos in her life left her no room to dwell on them. Once Stefan entered the picture, she dismissed the matter entirely and attributed it all to sheer good luck.Millie thought that she'd gotten lucky and that perhaps the Jordan family just wasn't meant to end so tragically."What else have you done? Tell me everything. I want to know," Millie demanded, her gaze unwavering as she stared at Pierce.She had always been the one left behind. Before her younger brother was born, her parents had loved her d
