Chapter 197 Jordan Is Behind You
Finished
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.

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.

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
“Hahaha!” Milly’s unrestrained laughter echoed in the hallway.
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.
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.
