Chapter 267

His desperation was palpable, so he probably wouldn’t deceive her. Immediately, Millie felt a wave of excitement wash over her, dissolving her pretense of arrogance. “Are you being serious?”

Upon seeing Millie's reaction, joy seeping from her as if she was about to leap into the air, Leon’s thought process staggered. Perhaps, he mused, he truly was a harsh individual.

“Whether you believeor not is your choice to make,” he countered.

Millie pressed her lips together. Despite the urgency of his request, Leon’s words oozed with arrogance. It was irritating, but his offer was too enticing to let her pride cin the way.

“Fine, but remember your promise. I'll go see Grandma now. | assure you, | will do everything in my power to persuade her to let you leave.”

Although Millie was unsure of her ability to sway Claudia, a voice within her insisted she had to succeed. Within seconds, she was gone. In the tastefully designed living room, Claudia had finished her medicine and emerged.

“Were you bored so you went outside for sfresh air?” Upon seeing Millie enter from outside, Claudia smiled without a hint of reproach.

“Yes, | noticed the garden is quite expansive, so | decided to take a stroll,” Millie responded, feeling a twinge of guilt. Claudia nodded in response. “Have you picked out the styles for your photos?”

“Yes, I’ve selected a few. Grandma, could you take a look?” Millie approached, grabbing a few photo albums from the table to show Claudia.

“That’s great. You're my first granddaughter-in-law. | can’t wait to see you in a wedding dress,” Claudia remarked, her lips breaking into a smile.

Hearing this, Millie felt a flush of embarrassment but knew she had to maintain focus.

“Grandma, the sun outside is growing intense. | checked, and the temperature has crossed 40 degrees. Leon has been kneeling outside for quite stnow; he might suffer from heatstroke. Shouldn’t we let him stop? What do you think?”

Millie's words were chosen with utmost caution.

Upon hearing this, Claudia’s face darkened, her mood visibly soured. She thumped her dragon-headed cane against the floor, in apparent disagreement.

“you don’t understand. Leon is extremely stubborn. It might be better to let him kneel a little longer, so he truly comprehends his missteps.”

Millie felt a wave of panic rush over her. Had her plea failed?

“However, since you intervened on his behalf, I'll honor your request. Freyja, tell him to rise and remind him to reflect on his behavior once he gets home.”

This unexpected turn left Millie slightly startled, but relief washed over her. There was hope for her grandmother’s health to recover!
