Chapter 147 A Bitter Farewell Stephanie never expected that Jonathan would humiliate her so publicly. Her face paled as she confronted him. Jonathan, how could you treatlike this? You once toldyou would always treasureand onlyforever!" Hearing her words, Jonathan frowned, sinking into deep thought.
After a long pause, he finally said. "Did I say such foolish things before?" Realizing his blunder, he quickly expressed his loyalty to Milly. "Milly, letexplain. I must have been out of my mind to say such idiotic things. From now on, my loyalty is only to you. I'll do anything for you. I swear on... uh... Anthony's life!" Milly sighed. There's no need to go that far." Oh boy. first he swore on Oliver's life, now it's Anthony's! It seems he has two people he doesn't care much, and he was using both for his vows.
Watching this scene unfold, Joy burst into laughter. "Hahaha! This is just so humiliating! Speople live in their fantasies, thinking they deserve admiration. But in reality... it's so pathetic! Nobody cares about her at all!" Joy had always disliked Stephanie's pretentious behaviour, and her loud voice left little to the imagination. The people in the crowd around them were enjoying the while whispering gossip they already knew. It wasn't hard to guess the content of their whispered remarks.
"You!" Stephanie gritted her teeth in frustration. For the first tin her life, she was publicly humiliated and couldn't hold back her tears.

After she left, the crowd who were watching the excitement didn't dare to stay any longer and quickly dispersed. -As soon as everyone left, the noisy lounge was instantly quiet.
Milly frowned when she looked at the lounge that was turned into a mess by everyone. She got up to clean it up. As a result, before she could start, Jonathan, who was still in his hospital gown, stopped her with a bright smile. "Milly, you sit down. Lethandle the cleaning." Now that everyone was gone, he could finally treat her as his younger sister freely. How wonderful! Taking advantage of the absence of George and Anthony, Jonathan was determined to impress his sister and secure the top spot in her heart.
Watching him struggle with his limp while cleaning up, Milly sighed deeply. "Forget it, you should sit down and letdo it." Chapter 147 A Bitter Farewell "No way!" Jonathan immediately objected. "What kind of brother lets his sister do the chores? My sister is meant to be a little princess!" Thunk! A suitcase was dragged aside and fell...
Thud! - An ornament fell from the table...
Crash! The brand new coffee cup was broken...
Milly winced and closed her eyes in distress.
Despite the chaos, Jonathan was more energetic than ever, a "good brother” aura radiating from him.
He tried to strike up a conversation while working. "By the way, Milly, you're wrapping up your scenes tomorrow, right? Do you plan to go home?" "Mm." Milly responded faintly, Jonathan asked, "Could you stay a bit longer? If you leave, I won't be able to see you." "My scenes are finished. So, there's no reason forto stay. Besides, I need to go hto check my scores and apply for college," Milly explained.
Jonathan, who had been so animated moments ago, deflated upon hearing this.

That guy would badmouth him, and what if she started distancing herself because of it? No, I can't let that happen! I have to help myself! Jonathan coughed lightly before speaking up again. "Uh, Milly, there are a few things I need to tell you." "Mm," Milly responded softly.
Jonathan leaned over the sofa; his eyes fixed intently on Milly when he spoke with a resolute fone. Milly, NO listen. Anthony may be only two years younger than me, but I grew up with him. And lettell you, not a
Lattle. When we were kids, I stole sweet potatoes single truthful word comes out of his mouth. He loves with him, but I was the only one who got punished!"
"And another thing, he's broke! Don't be fooled by how George always gives him money. That money i his. Easy money never lasts. If you want jewellery or designer bags, he won't be able to buy them for you. But I have money, lots of it! I can buy you anything you want, as much as you want. And not just that, I also..." "Stop!" Hearing his increasingly frantic speech, Milly raised her hand to cut him off.
Jonathan looked at her with his lips pouted, clearly upset that he hadn't finished listing his good qualities yet.
der wat to the point. What are you trying to say?" Chapter 147 A Bitter Farewell A cheeky grin spread across Jonathan's face as he buttered her up. "Heh, my Milly is so clever!" "I just wanted to say, when you go home, don't forgetbecause of Anthony. It isn't right to ditch the old for the new. That's just immoral!" Milly was stunned.
Moments ago, she had suspected something was off Jonathan, and now she was certain of it.
Sure, he had been protective in the
