Chapter 318 Mr Tate Struggles to Hold Back
He wasn’t sure if it was just his imagination, but when George told him to get in, it sounded like a sigh of relief…
Milly looked at Danny, who was standing by the bed with his head down. She blinked and asked, “Do you guys have business to discuss? Should I head back? We can finish the movie later.”
Unusually, George didn’t stop her. His voice was hoarse. “Yeah.”
He agreed so quickly and readily.
Hearing his cold response, Milly pouted and put on her shoes, feeling annoyed. What was that supposed to mean? Why was he so indifferent? Did I really have no charm at all? Was he so devoid of desire after losing his memory? She had even sprayed on some alluring perfume today, all for nothing!
Hmph, I am angry?
Focused on putting on her shoes, Milly didn’t notice George’s intense, hungry gaze. But Danny, standing by the bed, saw it clearly. George looked at Milly as if he wanted to devour her on the spot.
Aw, man!
Wait, something seemed off …
Milly finished putting on her shoes and looked up, meeting George’s gaze. Before she could decipher his expression, he turned away, his face emotionless, as if nothing had happened.
“Um. I’m leaving now?” She looked at him hopefully, waiting for him to say something.
But George just nodded coldly. “Yeah”
The light in Milly’s eyes dimmed significantly.
What a cold–hearted man!
He couldn’t even say goodbye? Was it that hard?
As she reached the door, getting angrier with each step, she suddenly turned and ran back to George’s bedside. She quickly planted a kiss on his cheek. “Goodbye!”

Afraid he might get angry, Milly darted off like a cat that had just stolen some fish. Before George could say anything, she was already out of sight.
The spacious hospital room was suddenly left with just Danny and George.
No one spoke, and the air fell into an eerie silence.
Seeing the scene unfold, Danny couldn’t help but silently give Milly a thumbs up.
Milly was impressive. While most people start with holding hands and hugs, Milly went No wonder George was smitten with her.

But then he met George’s cold gaze from the bed.

For a moment, he felt bad for Milly George hadn’t really lost his memory, and Milly had openly said she liked him. So why was he acting so indifferent? He was a completely different person from the one who had pursued Milly si fervently before.
Was this the classic case of the unattainable always seems more attractive, and the favoured ones act with impunity?
Was Me Tate Acting sewe note that he had her, so he didn’t cherish her anymore?
Was that that they called ajr
Danny pressed his lips together, hesitating but unable to hold back. He had been with George for a long time and knew how hard it had been for George and Milly to get to this point. If George kept this up, he would drive Milly away and regret it later. As a good assistant, he knew this was probably not his place, but he felt compelled to say something
“Mr. Tate, you shouldn’t have been so cold just now…
As soon as he started, he realised something was off.

Lying on the bed, George was no longer suppressing his desires after Milly left. Sweat beaded on his forehead, soaking his hair and dripping onto the bed. The intense possessiveness and burning desire he had been holding back now filled the room, making even Danny weak in the knees.
Danny quickly took two steps back, finding it easier to breathe.”
Mr. Tate… was terrifying!
He finally understood why George had been so cold. He had been using all his willpower to suppress his inner desires. If he relaxed even a little, those desires would flood out, consuming both him and Milly.
George was holding back to avoid scaring Milly. He was more in love with her than Danny had thought.
Only a man deeply in love would be so cautious, so on edge, afraid of frightening her…
Realising this, Danny broke into a cold sweat. Thankfully, he hadn’t blurted out everything he had been thinking, or he might have been in real trouble.
After a while, George leaned back, closed his eyes, and let out a long sigh. His tightly clenched fists slowly relaxed, though the intense turmoil in his eyes hadn’t completely subsided.
“Danny, take this to the bank in Eclipton and put it in my private safe deposit box with the highest insurance coverage,” George said, his voice still a bit hoarse.
Danny blinked and quickly took the crystal box, but when he saw the apple inside, he couldn’t help but twitch his mouth. “Mr. Tate, this apple is perishable. The bank won’t store it.
“Even if the bank used high–tech methods to store it, the apple would only last about a month before it started to rot.”
The apple was already starting to oxidize a bit, though it still looked relatively fresh, probably because of its variety.
