Pierce's growing frustration made Millie even more nervous."Why do you want to go to their wedding and dress up so nicely? Are you trying to get Stefan's attention?" Pierce asked."What?" Millie was dumbfounded. It turned out that Pierce was angry because he'd believed she was dressing up for Stefan. He did appear jealous, so she asked, "Are you jealous of Stefan?"Frowning at her question, Pierce said sternly, "You're overthinking this. You're Mrs. Atkinson now, but you're dressing like that to catch your ex's eye. Have you ever considered my feelings? Millie, don't go too far. My tolerance for you is limited.""Fine. What if I add a shawl?" Millie relented."Do you really have to go?" Pierce's voice was hoarse. He didn't believe she was going just to witness Stefan's wedding. He continued, "He's the one who dumped you. Don't you have any resentment? Why are you so eager to watch him marry someone else?"After all, Millie should be hurting. Stefan slept with her, but instead of

Millie frowned and feigned anger. "How could you go back on your word?""We never signed a contract, and you don't have any witnesses. How will you prove I'm going back on what I said? Let me tell you, our bet is still on!" Wanda shot back."What's the point of that? Since neither of us managed to invite Ms. Aurora, calling it a draw won't make things awkward," Millie argued."Who said I failed like you?" Wanda said."Do you mean you actually got her to agree? That's impossible!" Millie was doing her best to look panicked and desperate. Then, she once again pleaded with Wanda to call off the bet.Wanda's resolve only strengthened at Millie's apparent distress. With a smug smile, she adjusted her dress and said, "My hair and makeup aren't even done yet. I'm not wasting any more time listening to you."With that, she called her stylists back in and said to Millie, "Please leave. Have yourself a lovely day.""Wanda, there's no way you actually got her!" Millie called out as she lef

Standing there, Pierce's desire and anger had completely faded away. He felt awkward and stammered, "So, you were looking for Wanda just now?"Millie was beyond frustrated with him. She really wanted to slap him, but they still had to attend the wedding. Since he was her husband now, she couldn't let him show up with bruises. Not only would it be bad for her reputation, but Stefan and Wanda would likely make fun of them. So, she knew she had to bite her tongue and hold back her anger.She had rested enough to walk, so she said, "Put me down!"Knowing he was in the wrong, Pierce replied, "Sorry, I'll take you to fix your dress now."But instead of putting her down, he carried her straight to the lounge.Once they arrived, Millie rushed to the restroom to adjust her Nubra and fix her dress. She took off Pierce's coat and looked at her disheveled self in the mirror.Her dress had become loose and sagging. It was even slipping enough to reveal one side of her chest, which was marked

Fueled by the buzz surrounding the wedding, Leach Group's share price increased.Leach Group and Atkinson Group had always been fierce rivals for the top spot in the business world. Now, their competition was neck and neck, making it hard to tell which company held the upper hand. It felt as though they were advancing side by side.Upon seeing the snow, Wanda couldn't hold back the tears that slid down her cheeks. She was overwhelmed by the touching gesture.Stefan felt his heart race as he watched the woman he loved the most making her way toward him. He was finally marrying the girl he had dreamed of marrying in his youth. Though the journey had been fraught with obstacles, the two of them had reached their happy ending.All he cared about was Wanda. Millie had been nothing more than a fleeting distraction that drew him away temporarily.As this thought crossed his mind, his gaze drifted to the audience. He noticed Pierce holding Millie close to him. They looked every bit like a

Wanda's words stroke a chord in Stefan.It wasn't just Wanda who felt like she didn't recognize Millie anymore. He, too, found her completely unfamiliar. It was as if he had never truly known her.For three years, the gentle and agreeable Millie that he thought he knew had only been the version of herself that she wanted him to see.Stefan had believed he had her eating out his palm in those three years. But now, it was clear that Millie had been the one playing him for a fool.He silently clenched his fist and said, "Go ahead and make the announcement, then. She can't blame us for driving her into a corner since she was practically asking for it.""Thank you, Stefan. I was worried you'd think I was a cruel woman. I had no choice but to…" Wanda trailed off, her eyes brimming with tears."Alright, Wanda. We've been together for so many years. Don't I know what kind of person you are? Stop crying and fix your makeup. We're heading out soon," Stefan comforted.Wanda nodded and turn
