A Film Queen of Two Worlds novel Chapter 331

Chapter 331 Stephanie’s Coming–of–Age Party 

Jeffrey sawod there, his eyes carrying a knowing gline as if he had post uncovered come hidden truk 

Milly pretended to be calm as she gazed back at him. She forced her voice to some stealy and natural, Jeffrey, what do you mean by saying that? If you want to say something to me you can just say it. 

Jeffrey licked his lips, looking thoughtfully at the girl in front of him. “Milly, under what circumstances des you think a person’s character might change completely? Imagine, that person hadn’t experienced any major trauma and had no serious illness, yet they’ve become an entirely different person overnight 

Despite her earlier suspicions that Jeffrey might have figured something out, hearing him declare it so clearly made Milly’s fingers involuntarily curl. 

Her emotions were well hidden, but Apollo, who was sitting next to her, noticed the slight tension. He tilted his head and hugged her arm tighter, mumbling, “Ah–wooah–woo… 

His touch made Milly’s nerves relax instantly. 

She raised a hand to ruffle Apollo’s hair, her tone calm, “Oh? Why do I feel like I don’t quite understand what you’re saying, Jeffrey?” 

Jeffrey straightened in his seat; his expression unchanging and his voice steady, “Milly, if you don’t grasp what I said, then you don’t get it at all. After all, I know that you are in the dark and lack a complete picture. But Jordan should understand it, right?” 

Everyone’s eyes turned to Jordan, who had been silently observing on the sidelines. 

A hint of self–satisfaction flashed in Jeffrey’s gaze. He was sure Jordan would now handle the situation as soon as he talked about this. 

Milly pressed her lips together and didn’t speak. 

Jordan, the focus of their attention, appeared unaffected by their conversation. His long fingers danced over the keyboard of his laptop, his expression stern. 

After typing the last word, he slowly lifted his head. His sharp eyes swept over Jeffrey before finally fell on Milly, the coldness in his gaze instantly dissipated. “Milly, Stephanie is having her coming–of–age party at the old house. If you want to attend, go ahead. If you don’t want to, I’ll take you straight home.” 

“What?” The sudden shift in the topic was too fast, and Milly couldn’t react for a while. “Jordan, you…” 

Jordan maintained his composure. “What’s going on? Did I say something wrong?”

Milly thought for a while. “No, no, it’s nothing’s wrong. I’ll go to the party. She did invite me, and I might feel guilty if I didn’t go.” 

Jordan nodded approvingly. “Well, you are the eldest daughter of the Burnetts, and you are also my sister. Whether you choose to go or not, it will not reflect negatively on you.” 

Then, his gaze shifted back to Jeffrey, deep and inscrutable, an icy gaze that could freeze anyone in place. “What question were you asking me earlier?” 

Jeffrey’s smirk froze on his face. “Nothing. I didn’t ask anything.”

+5 Pearls. 

Jordan’s dark eyes stared at him for a moment longer, until Jeffrey began to fidget uncomfortably. Finally, Jordan spoke, “Since you were young, I’ve taught you to think properly before you speak, to avoid humiliating yourself. Did you do that just now?” 

Jeffrey mumbled, “I understand…” 

Jordan’s response as the eldest brother was already clear. Although he didn’t directly address the question, his actions made his position unmistakable. 

Milly was the eldest daughter of the Burnetts and his sister, and no amount of speculation or gossip could alter that immutable truth. 

Jeffrey wasn’t stupid. Jordan’s answer had made things abundantly clear. He provided the best answer without needing to say more. 

Milly’s heart was filled with joy as she looked at her elder brother. From the beginning, he had suspected that her personality was different from the original Milly, and she knew the Burnett family members must have noticed. No one had brought it up, so she had never confronted the issue directly. 

What she didn’t expect was for Jordan to address it in such a manner. It was like he had handed her a royal pardon, allowing her to be unapologetically herself. 

Truth be told, what Jeffrey said just now wasn’t entirely wrong. The field of Life Sciences and Theoretical Research wasn’t her passion. She had chosen it mainly to uncover the truth about how she ended up in this time and space from a professional perspective. 

In other words, she prepared herself for the possibility of leaving at any moment. 

At least until today, she had always been prepared to leave. Even discovering her feelings for George and wanting to pursue him hadn’t swayed her resolve to leave. However, just now… 

Just now, Jordan’s validation had shaken her resolve. His recognition gave her a true sense of belonging, one that challenged her previous determination to leave. 

Though Jordan had said countless times that she was the eldest daughter of the Burnetts and his younger sister. It was a sentence that was usually blurted out at that time, not like now, which was spoken with the knowledge that she wasn’t the original Milly. 

Suddenly, the usually strong Milly felt her eyes well up with tears. “Thank you, Jordan…

Thank you for believing in me so much. Thank you for accepting me. Thank you for allowing me to be myself! 

Jordan seemed to understand what she was thinking. He gently ruffled her hair; his eyes overflowing with affection. 

“It’s me who should be thanking you, Milly.” 

Milly was puzzled by his words. She wanted to ask why, but he had already turned his gaze away. 

The con arrived at the old house. 

Since Milly voiced her unwillingness to enter the house with them, she took a taxi back midway on her 

own.
