Chapter 34 Jealousy
When Milly exclaimed “brother” in surprise, Jordan and George, whom Stephanie entangled, instinctively- thought she was calling out to them. They were about to agree eagerly, with excitement in their eyes.
However, when they turned their heads, the little girl flew into the arms of a stranger like a butterfly.
Jordan and George were watching from a distance, and were on the verge of exploding,
Who is that person? Why is Milly hugging him?
Jordan was so angry that he almost bit his teeth to pieces. His aura became unusually cold and sharp. He ignored Stephanie and George behind him and walked quickly towards them.
George was no better. He frowned and looked angry next second, striding closely behind.
Jordan! Mr. Tate!”
as if he was about to explode and kill someone in the
Stephanie tried to call out to them, but the two tall, straight men completely ignored her voice, not even turning back. Their footsteps hurriedly moved further away.
She was left stomping her feet in place, feeling helpless.
At this moment, in Class A, William and Anthony, sitting beside Milly, looked puzzled as they watched her run out and then saw her happily leading a man inside.
The man was tall and straight, with delicate features and a handsome face. His fair and bright complexion exuded a friendly aura, giving people a refreshing feeling even just by looking at him.
The faces of the two of them instantly darkened.
Especially William couldn’t hold back his anger. The more he looked, the angrier he became. His tone couldn’t help but be full of resentment:
“Boss, who is this guy?”
Hmph, Boss actually hugged him! I didn’t even once! I’m jealous!
He knew the people from the Burnetts, and this person definitely wasn’t from the Burnetts. Hmph, he looked like a bad person with his crooked appearance!
Milly let Leon sit in her seat and considerately pulled the desk forward to make him more comfortable.
Anthony saw her do this and was so angry that his hair almost stood on end. When he had just arrived, she hadn’t treated him like this. He even moved the chair himself!
After everything was set up, Milly began to introduce him, “This is my brother, Leon Smith.”
She was puzzled when she saw William suddenly looking angry.
This guy was fine just now. Why did he suddenly become so strange when I came in?

She decided that if this guy dared to be disrespect Leon, she would just twist his head off and use it as a ball for Leon to kick
When William heard this, he was stunned. Leon Smith, why did this name sound so familiar?
Wait, isn’t this Boss‘ foster brother?
After realising this, his expression changed drastically. He immediately put down his crossed legs and said, “Hehe, so you’re Boss‘ brother. No wonder you look so handsome and impressive. Nice to meet you. She often mentions you to me.”
Milly was speechless.
This guy really knows how to talk to people. When did I ever mention him?
Anthony’s expression did not improve at all but instead became even colder when he heard that it was her brother.
Leon also noticed their change in mood. He smiled and squinted his eyes in a friendly manner, saying, “Well, I’ll thank you for taking care of Milly.”
William was pleasantly surprised and quickly waved his hand, responding, “Leon, you’re too polite. Taking – care of Boss… no, taking care of a classmate is the right thing to do. Rest assured. No one will dare to bully her as long as I’m here.”
Leon smiled and replied. “Okay.”
On the side, Anthony watched them banter back and forth like a comedy routine. After a while, he couldn’t hold back and lightly snorted, “Haha, hypocritical.”
Milly furrowed her brows and stared at him coldly, “Shut up!”
She had started to change her opinion of him slightly when he testified for her. But now, he was reverting to being the arrogant rich guy, mocking her brother in front of her. Who did he think he was?
Some people never change.
Leon paid no attention to it. Instead, he raised his hand to prevent Milly from getting into a fight and said, “Milly, don’t act impulsively.”
Milly, like a cat whose fur had been smoothed down, quickly retracted her claws that were about to come OUL
Leon smiled and looked at the hostile Anthony in front of him, “You must be Mr. Anthony, Milly’s sixth brother.”
The term “sixth brother” struck a chord in Anthony’s heart. His expression was softened slightly, but he still refused to back down. “Hmph.”
Milly’s anger flared up once again when she saw his reaction.
She pulled on Leon’s sleeve in anger and said, “Leon, don’t mind him. He’s not my sixth brother. With you. I have six brothers.”
“You!” Anthony’s face turned red with anger.

But Milly felt relieved and replied, “What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong? Didn’t someone say they’d be like a puppy if they recognised me as their sister again?”
Anthony’s face turned red with embarrassment, his teeth grinding.
Why was this girl so petty? Although I had said those words, I said it in anger. Could angry words be taken seriously?
Furthermore, in an attempt to make up for his mistakes in the past few days, he had already apologised. several times. But she couldn’t see that and instead got angry at her biological brother because of a non- blood–related foster brother!
When Leon heard Milly’s words, a hint of coldness flashed across his previously friendly face, but he quickly concealed it.
At that moment, the once–silent classroom suddenly erupted.
“Oh, my goodness, Look, a handsome guy!”
“We’re really lucky today. So many handsome guys are coming to our class. Whose guardians are they?”
“Are you blind? Even if you don’t read financial newspapers, you should at least watch the news, right? That’s the CEO of the Burnett Group and the Tate Group!”
“Burnett Group and Tate Group? Aren’t they here for a swearing ceremony with Anthony and William?”
“Probably.”
Milly listened to the discussions around her and looked up, only to see two figures walking into the classroom, one following the other.
It was Jordan and George.
As soon as the two entered, they headed straight for Milly’s desk. Upon seeing Leon sitting there, their already cold expressions darkened even more!
Jordan spoke first, extending his hand to Leon with an official and polite tone. “Hello, I assume you must be Mr. Smith. I want to thank you for taking care of my sister, Milly. I should thank you in person, but today I have a meeting with Milly, so I may have to wait until after the swearing ceremony
His words almost made it clear that Leon was an outsider.
Leon, facing his pressure without any fear, reached out to shake his hand and said, “No need to thank me. Milly is my sister, and it’s my duty to take care of her. I heard Mr. Burnett is always busy and dotes on Ms, Stephanie. How about I handle the swearing ceremony for Milly, and you can handle your sister?”
If Milly hadn’t been present, Jordan would have rolled up his sleeves and kicked him out!
Leon appeared friendly, but his words were not polite at all. Obviously, he was saying that Jordan favoured Stephanie over Milly. Now, he was here to support Milly.
