novelxo Chapter 134
“What are you implying?”
“It's easy for you to understand that.” With these words, Millie rose abruptly, her
rapid departure leaving only a cool, dispassionate silhouette.
She was well aware that the Thomas family had provided the Browns with a
generous gift for Millie’s union with Marcus, followed by a substantial investment
into the family business one month post-wedding.
“Hold on! That money was funneled into the business to offset our deficits. You'd
better not meddle with those funds.”
Gianna'’s shrill admonition echoed behind Millie, her refusal to relinquish a single
penny palpable.
Emerging from the establishment, Millie maintained a brisk pace, her rapid
strides a physical outlet for her simmering rage.
The thought of Joel performing Grandma's surgery seemed like a far-fetched
dream.
After an hour of relentless walking, Millie paused by the road to catch her breath.

A black luxury car cruised into the restaurant's parking lot, and a figure promptly
exited the vehicle. Millie's gaze inadvertently trailed over, and her eyes widened
at the sight of the individual.
Leon was the one who had stepped out of the car.

entrance, only to be halted by a security guard.

“Why can't I go in?” Millie queried, casting a glance at the grand building.
“You lack a membership, hence you're not granted access.”
