Semua Bab I'm Out of Your League Now: Bab 461 - Bab 470

Stefan had secretly escaped from the hospital and went straight to the apartment Millie used to live in. He kept banging on the door till the current tenant lost his patience.The tenant explained that there was no one called Millie Jordan living there, but Stefan refused to believe him. He even insisted on searching the apartment himself.Out of options, the tenant had no choice but to call the police.The officers who arrived asked Stefan for his family's contact information. He ended up giving them Millie's number."He's the heir to Leach Group," Millie explained. "I'll give you his family's contact information. He's a patient at the moment, so please contact them as soon as possible."Millie thought that this incident ended when she gave the officers Agnes' number. She could not have foreseen that after a little over an hour, a housekeeper would rush over to tell her that Stefan was at the door."Why is he here?" Millie frowned, having no choice but to check out the situation

"I know it's a hard pill to swallow, but it's the truth," Agnes said sadly. "Could you tell me again one more time, Grandma? There must have been some sort of miscommunication. Millie must have misunderstood me."Stefan's complexion was pallid. Even though Agnes had verified the truth behind Millie's words, he still couldn't bring himself to accept it.He clutched Agnes' hand in a death grip.Agnes told him the entire story again, telling him everything that she knew.She even included more details—like how Stefan betrayed Millie for Wanda, how he caused a scene during the family dinner, and how he tried to frame Millie to get her thrown in jail using his own child.Stefan's heart sank to the bottom of his gut after hearing it all.He stayed as still as a statue for a long while."I… I want to see Wanda," Stefan said finally, breaking the silence."You want to see her?""Just from afar. I want to know… just what sort of person would make me act like such a fool!""You can't

"Quit giving me that regretful look of lost love, Stefan. It's not like I've ever done you any wrong. We can have one last meal together, but I hope you'll keep your word and never appear before me again. Let's get on with life as if we never knew each other," Millie said resolutely.Stefan opened his mouth to speak. His throat felt dry and full of bitterness. He seemed to suddenly realize why he kept going back on his word and pestered Millie with ulterior motives before he lost his memory.Stefan would be heartbroken if they were to never come into contact again after this meal. Nevertheless, this was all his own doing.With this thought in mind, he no longer felt like having this meal.However, the words had already been spoken. He had wronged Millie far too many times. Letting go completely now was the best thing for both of them.And so, the two went to the restaurant. True to her word, Millie was there to eat. She was uninterested in reminiscing or discussing anything else.

"Hand her the divorce agreement," Stefan ordered.He couldn't be bothered to talk to her, so he instructed Mark to give her the divorce papers straightaway.However, Wanda didn't even glance at it. She thought that since she was pregnant now, her position was secure and unshakeable. Of course, she wouldn't agree to the divorce. Wanda appealed to him. "Stefan, I know I've made many mistakes, but the child is innocent. Can you bear to see this child being born to divorced parents and a broken home? "We're both unlucky people who have been orphaned. We once promised that if we ever had a child, we would give them the best life possible."Stefan finally understood why he had lost his mind and insisted on marrying Wanda. She knew exactly how deeply the loss of his parents had affected him. The two people closest to him were gone. The idea of having a child who shared his blood gave him a sense of belonging.Wanda had constantly reminded him that they were the same as they both lost

"Why aren't you saying anything? Was the battle really brutal and you lost some men? Are you grieving now?" Millie made guesses while gently stroking his back in an attempt to comfort him.She wondered if that would make him feel better."Pierce? Can you say something, please? You're scaring me…"It was too quiet. Even his breathing was hard to detect.Although she was holding him, she couldn't feel his warmth. "Pierce, please talk to me. What's going on? What's wrong?"Still, Pierce didn't say a single word.Panic surged through her, and she quickly pushed him away. Suddenly, Pierce changed drastically. His face turned deathly pale, and his entire body was soaking wet. His fingers seemed to be swollen—as if they'd been submerged in water for too long. Drops of water slid from his fingertips and dripped down to the floor.Millie's gaze traveled down to his chest, where there were three gaping bullet wounds. They bled profusely, soaking his shirt.Pierce stared at her with lif
