Chapter: 133 Awhole hour passed at the café before Gianna made her tardy appearance. The sight of Millie’s unblemished complexion incensed Gianna.

Yet, something had evidently gone awry, and Millie’s face was unmarred.

Cocking her head, Millie posed a question. “Gianna, you frit rather oddly. If | was hiding my beauty, why would it be to fool you? The assailants who scarred my face, were they your lackeys?”
Gianna, caught off guard, maintained a guarded stance in her response. “Certainly not. Do not paintas the villain here.”
“Well, that’s reassuring. In that case, the revelation of my true appearance should please you. After all, in the public eye, I’m considered your daughter,” Millie countered, her calm demeanor punctuated by a placid smile.
“Unacceptable. | cannot tolerate such a thankless child. You can’t even dispatch a few invitations for your family’s sake. Who would want such a daughter?”
Undeterred, Millie retorted, “That’s for the best, | would shudder to have a mother with your myriad of issues.” “What's wrong with me? Are you casting judgment upon me?” Laughter bubbled up from Millie.
“You're not flawless, are you? Our meeting was scheduled for one. Do you lack the ability to read time, or did you merely forget? Your tardiness, it’s a chronic affliction, and it needs addressing.”

“The surgery for my grandmother was a stipulation in my agreement to marry Marcus. Are you reneging on your word?”
“Millie, you dare to bring this up? After gaining so much, you're still playing the victim? This marriage has been a windfall for you! Mia is the one truly aggrieved.
Only the thought of hurrying your grandmother’s demise can contain my anger.” With a growl, Gianna grabbed the cup before her and flung it to the floor, shattering it with a resounding crash. Regarding the fragmented remains on the floor, Millie voiced her indifference.
“If my memory serves right, a month after my union with the Thomas family, they will send a sizeable gift to the Browns. It appears that you have no need for this gracious offering.”
