Semua Bab I'm Out of Your League Now: Bab 621 - Bab 630

"What do you want in return for telling me this?" Stefan shrewdly asked."Marry me and make me Mrs. Leach." Wanda still refused to give up on her fantasies.Stefan coldly scoffed. "Like hell I'd do that."Wanda didn't look particularly hurt. "Then give me a large sum of money and send me abroad. I promise never to interfere in your life again."Still, Stefan didn't release her just yet. Until he verified the truth, Wanda wasn't going anywhere. If she was telling the truth, she might have one last chance to live. So, Stefan ordered his people to keep Wanda under strict watch and launched a full investigation into the events from three years ago. Even though so much time had passed, he was determined to uncover the truth.…Millie heard about Wanda's "death" sometime later. She felt a little surprised that Wanda had gone insane and soon died from her illness. But since Wanda was dead, there was no point in holding onto old grudges anymore.From that point on, things settled do

"Mills, I can't promise you that. I finally found her. I need to know the truth," Pierce firmly stated."And what if she refuses to speak?" Millie asked."I have my ways to make her talk," Pierce coldly said."Pierce! I—" Millie wanted to say more, but Pierce cut her off. "I will handle this. I promise that I won't kill her.""But—""Tobias, take Millie home."Tobias hesitated. He knew Pierce wasn't himself anymore. Bringing Millie here had been the right move, but deep down, he feared it wasn't enough.In the end, Millie was forcibly led away. As she was pulled out of the room, she shouted in Sarah's direction, "Piercy was wrong, Sarah. Don't be stubborn!"With that, Millie was taken back to the villa. Yet, she couldn't sit still. She had no idea what Pierce was going to do.Minutes turned into hours, and night fell. Pierce still hadn't come home.At that moment, Millie curled up on the couch. She didn't even have the appetite to eat dinner. After a long wait, exhaus

That night, Pierce was not as aggressive as usual. Instead, he was gentle and affectionate as he merged their bodies together.Millie had grown used to being carried to the bathroom afterward, where Pierce would help her clean up and wash away the traces of their passion. Millie was also accustomed to Pierce tenderly drying her hair, running his fingers through each strand until it was completely dry.She was used to the way he always held her tightly afterward, with his warm chest pressed against her back."Say, why do you think I haven't gotten pregnant yet?" Millie murmured."There's no rush," Pierce reassured her.Millie then suggested, "How about you get yourself checked too? We should determine if there's any issue with you too. If something's wrong, we'll fix it.""Alright. I'll do whatever you say," Pierce replied.Millie was exhausted and quickly fell into a deep sleep. But Pierce couldn't sleep at all. In a very low voice, he whispered so softly that his voice was

Stefan did not stop her again, and Millie left without looking back.Just as she was about to go downstairs, Stefan's voice echoed from above, "If you agree to get back with me and stay by my side, I'll step in and save him."Millie halted her steps as a chill ran down her spine. She hadn't expected Stefan to make such a demand."In your dreams!" she defiantly yelled back."This time, Pierce is facing certain death. It's fine if you don't believe me. You can die with him. Or the two of you can both live—it's up to you," Stefan responded.Millie's expression grew complicated. She couldn't bear to see Pierce die, but she couldn't agree to get back with Stefan either. She no longer loved him, nor could she even be bothered to hate him anymore.They couldn't be lovers, nor could they be friends or enemies.Stefan's footsteps drew closer, each one heavy and oppressive in the silent house. Each echo of his footstep weighed heavily on Millie's heart."Pierce is in grave danger. Yo

Stefan's words drenched Millie from head to toe like a bucket of ice water.She was at a loss for words. Her hands and feet were frigid. She felt as if she had fallen into an abyss."We've been going around in circles, but you've finally come back to me, Millie," Stefan dotingly said, giving her an affectionate look. He reached out, wanting to touch her face, but Millie instinctively stepped back and avoided his touch. His hand remained suspended in midair, looking stiff and awkward.Millie spat, "I agreed to be with you, but that doesn't mean I'll do whatever you want. Don't touch me, or I'll kill myself right in front of you. Don't think I don't know how much you've interfered in this incident. "You want to see Pierce suffer just as much as those people do. Even if I can't be with him, things between us can never go back to how it once was. Do yourself a favor and give up on your wishful thinking.""So what? As long as you're not with him, that's all that matters. If I can't
