When Stephanie heard Milly say she didn’t have it, she was sceptical. “It’s impossible that you don’t have
that amount.”
It wasn’t a question, but a statement.
The story claimed that the Burnetts had always lavished Stephants. How could she possibly not
have a mere 450 thousand dollars?
She must be lying.
with
Stephanie ground her teeth, glaring at Milly. This woman had the audacity to make such outrageous demands!
She did have 4.5 million.
Stephanie had saved up all that money from her family’s gifts over the years. After all, she had to buy branded clothes, jewellery, and bags. It had been a challenge to save up that much.
She would have nothing left if she gave it all away.
When she spotted Stephanie’s hesitation, Milly shrugged and said, “If you don’t want to give the money. then forget it.
With that, she turned to leave.
Stephanie quickly stepped in front of her and blocked her path again. She said, ‘Fine, wait here. I’ll get it for you.”
Milly stood still and frowned slightly when she heard the words.
D“mmit! It felt like she asked for too little money from her!
Stephanie feared she might change her mind. She returned swiftly with a card and handed it over. “The password is my birthday
Milly accepted it with satisfaction and said, “Consider this your compensation to me.”
And to the original Milly.
She lay cold and alone in a morgue, with no one to claim her.
Stephanie was unwilling to let go. She asked, “So, about my contract with Bonnie…..
Milly pocketed the card and said calmly. “I’ll discuss it and get back to you.”
Stephanie agreed and said, “Alright. When will you talk about it? And with whom?”
Milly replied, “With Grandma.
Stephanie was stunned.
“Grandma?

“But she passed away a long time ago. How can you discuss anything with her?”
“Which means there’s nothing to discuss!”
Stephanie was at a loss for words.
“Milly, how dare you trick me?” Stephanie’s gaze was fierce, and her face contorted with anger.
From the start, Milly had been playing games with her.
Realising the possibility, Stephanie’s eyes flashed with malice. She wanted to kill Milly.
Jordan, you’re done talking with Grandpa?”
Milly suddenly looked behind Stephanie and asked earnestly.
Finished
At this moment, Stephanie and Milly were standing behind the stairs. Stephanie had her back to the stairs while Milly was facing them, so Stephanie couldn’t see what was happening behind her.
Now, when Milly was talking to someone behind her, she realised that it must be Jordan. She couldn’t help but shudder and break out in a cold sweat.
How long had Jordan been standing there? Did he notice her losing her temper?
She was doomed.
Jordan already had issues with her. When he witnessed her confrontation with Milly, he might become even more upset.
Stephanie bit her lip and adopted a pityful look. Her eyes had turned red, and tears were about to spill “Jordan, I was just talking about the contract with Milly. We were
She turned around, but no one was there.
“Hahaha!” Milly’s unrestrained laughter echoed in the hallway.
Stephanie’s face burned with humiliation, as if someone had slapped her.
Milly had tricked her again.
This realisation completely enraged Stephanie. Unable to control her anger, she grabbed Milly by the throat, her eyes filled with hatred. “Milly, how dare you play me?
Milly smirked and retorted, “Why wouldn’t I? I find it quite amusing.

Stephanie was enraged. She pushed Milly against the railing. Behind Milly a flight of stairs; if she fell, she’d be either dead or severely injured. Stephanie’s eyes were filled with a crazed hatred.
Milly showed no fear, not even resisting. Instead, she leaned close and whispered in her ear, “Jordan ist behind you.
Stephanie snickered coldly. She obviously wouldn’t believe her again, saying, “You think you can fool me again?”
Milly shrugged and adopted a nonchalant expression. She said “If you don’t believe me so he in

Her calm tone further provoked Stephanie, causing her eyes to redden even more. She couldn’t help but feel a chill, her expression twisting in anger. “Aren’t you afraid at all?” she demanded.
She hated Milly’s relaxed attitude.
Clearly, she was stronger than Milly, and with just a bit of force, she could push her off. Milly’s life was now in her hands. Yet she remained calm and composed.
Why?
Shouldn’t she be screaming in fear? Shouldn’t she be crying and begging for mercy?
“Do you want me to be afraid?” Milly asked, tilting her head.
“I want you dead!” Stephanie hissed fiercely as she squinted her eyes.
“I was supposed to have a wonderful life, loved and cherished as the Burnetts‘ heiress, and live a glamorous life..
“Everything changed because of you. My brothers don’t adore me anymore; they even want to send me away. Milly, you owe me this!”
Her words were filled with bitterness, spoken through gritted teeth.
When she heard the speech, Milly gave her a half–smile. She said, “You’re right. In your previous life, you did have all that, even better than you describe.”
So much so that everyone thought the original Milly’s achievements were Stephanie’s.
Everyone was so doted on you that, even when you ran away with the money, they made excuses for you.
How enviable your life was, even an outsider like me really envies your life.
Hatred blinded Stephanie, causing her to miss the mention of a previous life. When she heard Milly agreeing with her, she smirked coldly, her eyes flashing with a murderous look. Stephanie said, “Then I’ll make it happen!”
Just as she was about to push Milly down the stairs, a furious voice boomed from behind her.
“Stephanie! Let go!”
Jordan was there.
Stephanie’s hand, which clenched on Milly’s throat, actually froze.Her eyes, once filled with killing intent, now brimmed with fear..
Milly smiled. Apparently, Stephanie still had some sense left, and she was still capable of fear.
Perhaps it was time to stir the pot a bit more.
“Stephanie, you’ve been caught. You’re doomed. Your wonderful life has been ruined by your own hands.”
Stephanie’s hand trembled. She glared at Milly in disbelief and questioned, “You knew all along, didn’t you?”

Milly nodded honestly and admitted, “Yes, but I warned you.”
“You b*tch!”
Milly nonchalantly pursed her lips and let Stephanie say whatever she wanted.
Finished
Hearing the approaching footsteps, Stephanie’s body began to tremble. Panic spread through her. She could barely breathe.
It was over. Jordan adored Milly, and now he had caught her trying to push her down the stairs. No matter how she explained, he wouldn’t let her off.
Would her wonderful life really end here, as Milly said?
No! She couldn’t allow her life to end like this!
