A Film Queen of Two Worlds

Chapter 227 Reached Her Limit and Didn't Have to Hold It in Any Longer

Matthew grinned, a glimmer of satisfaction in his eyes, as if he found his cleverness rewarding. "See? If you had been cooperative earlier, we wouldn't have gone through all that trouble."

Milly glanced at the brick he had thrown on the ground and squinted. She felt tempted to pick it up and smash it against his head,

"Get to the point. Why are you here?" She wanted him to speak and leave promptly.

Matthew walked over to the table and retrieved a bag he had brought with him. He handed it to her. This is for you. Put it on so I can see."

Reluctant. Milly took the bag. She did not expect him to really give her something.

She opened it and discovered a brightly colored robe inside that was almost blinding to look at.

"You're giving me...a robe?"

Matthew nodded, a touch of pride in his voice. "I bought it on Amazon. The seller said it's the same style as the one the black bear stole from that monk in that TV show we used to watch. It's unisex, and I got it in a size that should fit you perfectly

Only an artist would think to buy something like this. He must believe she would be thrilled.

But his anticipation was short-lived. In the next moment, Milly pushed the bag and the robe back into his hands before turning away with a look of disdain. I'm not wearing this. Take it back."

Matthew's eyes widened in disbelief. "Why not? It looks great! It's just like the-

Milly cut him off sharply. "If you mention again that it's like the robe the black bear stole, you can forget about ever talking to me again!"

Matthew's expression fell. She has no appreciation for art. This robe looks amazing

Milly took a deep breath, deciding not to argue with a fool. "Just tell me the real reason you're here. Don't tell me it's to give me a robe, because I don't believe you"

Matthew didn't bother hiding it and got straight to the point. "I need to design a Buddhist robe, and I need some inspiration from you."

"A Buddhist robe?" Milly was puzzled.

Matthew clarified, Technically, it's hot a traditional Buddhist robe. It's a fashion piece inspired by the concept of Buddhist robes,"

Milly was even more confused. "There are plenty of monks here wearing actual Buddhist robes. Why come to me? If you need a woman to model, your sister, Stephanie, would be happy to help. Why drag me into this?"

Matthew frowned at the mention of Stephanie, his protective instincts kicking in. "Can you stop being so sarcastic? Why are you calling Stephanie 'my sister'? She's your sister too, you know. We're family"

Milly couldn't help but laugh and roll her eyes. "That's being sarcastic? I'm just stating facts. Also, did you say family? Do you even believe that when you say it? These guys are really something.

When Stephanie said something rude, they all played dumb. Milly could smell her manipulation from a mile away, yet they insisted it was innocence and kindness.

But when Milly said anything remotely harsh, it was immediately taken as rude and sarcastic.

They're pretty good at twisting facts depending on the situation,

Matthew's expression darkened, his eyes narrowing. "You're right. We can't call ourselves family. Because of you. Stephanie has been targeted and hurt. She used to smile all the time, and now she doesn't. The pain she's gone through is all because of y

[you.

"You don't deserve to be a Burnett! No wonder Mom gave you up back then. You deserved it! Thankfully, Stephanie grew up with us. If you had, who knows what would have happened to the Burnetts!" Milly's fists clenched, her knuckles cracking under the force of her grip.

What a bizarre thing for him to say! The original Milly's rightful life, which should have belonged to her, was taken away by others. As her own brother, Matthew shows no remorse. And now he's spouting this nonsense!

She had reached her limit and didn't have to hold it in any longer!

She delivered a powerful kick, using all her strength. Despite being shorter than Matthew, her experience in fights allowed her to nearly knock him off balance.

As he clung to the nearby table for support, Milly narrowed her eyes. With swift precision, she executed a flawless shoulder throw, slamming him forcefully onto the ground.

Bang! His handsome face met the ground intimately.

Milly pressed her foot firmly on his back, pinning him down. Her voice carried a sharp edge. "Matthew, I used to think your artistic quirks is to be blamed the weird way your mind works. But now, it's clear that the issue isn't just your creative mind-it's your entire way of thinking!

"What do you mean I should have been abandoned? Was it not your fault that I was lost as a child? For over a decade, I had no idea you even existed. Suddenly, you all appeared in my life and dragged me back to the Burnetts, regardless of my opinion. And now you tell me I don't deserve to be a Burnett.

"If Stephanie desires this pampered life, let her have it. I couldn't care less! But what about my peaceful life before? Who will give that back to me?"

Milly had been misplaced by the Burnetts and ended up in an orphanage, later adopted by the Smiths.

Though not wealthy, the Smiths provided a comfortable life and showered her with love. She never doubted she was their true daughter until the Burnetts showed up.

They acted like bandits. They forcibly brought her back and shattered her peaceful existence, claiming it was for her own good.

Yet, at the Burnetts, Milly, who was supposed to be the real heiress, felt like an outsider. They openly favored a foster daughter who had appeared out of nowhere, constantly criticizing her.

She was a child who had a home but felt like she belonged nowhere. And now he was here, telling her she wasn't worthy of being a Burnett.

Ha!

As if I cared! You can all go to hell!

At that moment, Matthew was utterly stunned.

He had never been in a fight or been struck before. Now, here he was, knocked down to the ground, his eyes filled with disbelief and indignation. "How dare you throw me down! Do you think I won't knock your

teeth out?"

Milly sneered coldly, "Oh, really? Looks like you're the one who's teeth are knocked out now."

Matthew tried to rise, but Milly pressed down hard on him again, keeping him pinned.

The intense humiliation caused Matthew's face to turn red with anger. "Milly!"

Milly raised an eyebrow. "Yes, servant?"

"How dare-"

Before he could finish, Milly smacked him hard on the back of his head with a hard thud. "Shut up!"
