Chapter 266

Could she really bear to upset Claudia?

Disheartened by what happened, Millie walked over to the sofa and sank into it. She poured herself a cup of tea, hoping the soothing aroma could alleviate her internal turmoil.

Unbeknownst to Millie, the moment she had rushed indoors, Leon’s phone began to vibrate insistently. Upon answering the call, his face turned grim, and he gripped the phone tightly.

“sir Leon, is something the matter?” a servant asked when she passed by the door and witnessed what had happened.

Leon’s face hardened.

“Find Millie and bring her to me. Tell her | need to discuss something with her.”

The sound of his cold voice startled the servant who hastily nodded and rushed off to find Millie.

“Madam, Sir Leon requests your presence outside. He says he needs to speak with you about something,” the servant relayed. Just as Millie had made herself comfortable, with her tea barely sipped, the servant's words left her puzzled.

“What does he want now? I’m not going,” Millie responded, visibly annoyed. She had no desire to engage in conversation with him.

“It seems important. Sir Leon looked like he was in a hurry,” the servant insisted.

Millie took note of the servant's anxious expression but remained obstinate, finishing her tea before reluctantly rising to her feet and heading for the door.

Her demeanor had shifted. She crossed her arms, refusing to look Leon in the eye. “What do you want? Spit it out already,” Millie demanded.

Without missing a beat, Leon replied, “Go to Grandma and convince her to letleave. | have an urgent matter to attend to. | must go now.”

A flash of surprise crossed Millie’s face. Leon needing to leave urgently? What could have happened?

Lowering her gaze, she noticed Leon tightly gripping his phone, his knuckles white with tension. It was evident that he had a serious matter to deal with.

Regardless, Millie had steeled her resolve and simply shook her head.

“T won't do it. Even if you’re in a hurry, how is that my concern?”

Furthermore, did he think that Claudia was someone she could easily influence? He clearly overestimated her. She was mentally drained and hadn't even figured out her own situation yet.

Lifting his gaze, Leon said, “If you do this, I’ll agree to your demand and perform the surgery on your grandmother myself. It’s a golden opportunity. Are you sure you want to pass it up?”

Caught off guard, Millie was silent for a moment. Could he be serious?
