A Film Queen

A Film Queen of Two Worlds Chapter 35 Mutual Jealousy Jordan was seething with anger, wanting to vent his frustration on the nearest wall. He acknowledged his past foolishness before his rebirth, mistaking a counterfeit for a treasure. He was fully committed to making amends and deserved a chance to turn over a new leaf.

At this moment, he found himself unable to argue with Leon, as his words held a ring of truth.

This is infuriating! How could I avoid angering Milly and get rid of this hypocritical foster brother? Milly also sensed the unusual tension between the two and thought, they were in different industries. They shouldn't have such a strong sense of competition.

She blinked, trying to lighten the mood. "Jordan, are you here for Stephanie's swearing ceremony? You can head over there. There's no need to greetpersonally. Leon can handle that for me." Although she felt a twinge of discomfort seeing Jordan immediately seek out Stephanie upon arrival, she already had Leon and couldn't be too possessive.

Jordan appeared displeased, visibly struggling to contain his anger. After a moment, he spoke, "No, I'm here for your swearing ceremony." Despite Stephanie and Anthony also attending Crestwood High, he rarely cared about anything beyond. their basic needs. He wasn't even interested in school events like the swearing ceremony.

However, since Milly's arrival, he had been monitoring Crestwood High's situation daily, even assigning seven or eight retired soldiers to protect the school discreetly.

This time, he had even learned of the swearing ceremony in advance and compressed a week's worth of work into three days to return for the event. Yet, unexpectedly, he was intercepted So it would be odd if he didn't feel angry.

Upon hearing his words, Milly was taken aback. "Huh? You're here for me?" She had just witnessed Jordan seeking out Stephanie. Have I misunderstood? Ignoring her surprise, Jordan took a deep breath, quelling the urge to confront Leon.

Forget it. I can't risk upsetting Milly.

Scanning the room, his gaze settled on Anthony, who was moving a chair to sit beside Milly. He furrowed his brow and asked, "What are you doing sitting here?" Anthony remained expressionless. "I'm here for her swearing ceremony." "Stand up and return to your seat. Students should act like students. How can a student oversee another's swearing ceremony?" Jordan reprimanded.

However, Anthony remained seated, resolute. "No, I'll stay here." His unwavering demeanour resembled someone ready to defend their position.

busy I'm Milly's sixth brother and I arrived the earliest, so why should I move? If it were a matter of who cfirst, I wouldn't budge! Jordan narrowed his eyes, reluctant to embarrass Milly yet unwilling to back down. He reached for a chair behind him, forcefully squeezing it into the space beside Anthony. Stretching his long legs, he sat down firmly.

"Milly is a member of the Burnetts, my little sister. It would be scandalous if I were not here for her event,” he justified.

The space was already small, and with him sitting down, it beceven more cramped.

Anthony's expression darkened. “Jordan, you're childish to say such nonsense.

Leon maintained his gentle smile, but a subtle chill crept into his eyes.

The classroom plunged into a strange and oppressive tension.

Even Milly, who was lagging behind, unsure of what was happening, could feel something was amiss in the atmosphere. She rubbed her arms, feeling a chill, and looked at the three brothers gathered around her desk, sighing helplessly.

Having too many brothers is indeed a kind of trouble.

William was the only one unaffected by the tension. At that moment, he resembled a joyful puppy, wagging his tail enthusiastically around his brother George, showering him with exaggerated praises.

"Wow, George! What brings you here to oversee my swearing ceremony? Do you suddenly realise your little brother is also very outstanding? "Hehe. No need to be modest. A talented little brother likeis a valuable asset wherever he goes.

"Oh, brother, would you like to see my test paper? It's impressive!" George remained silent..

He glanced at the mop leaning against the classroom's back door, briefly considering stuffing it into William's mouth to silence him.

Everyone in the family was calm and solemn; he couldn't pinpoint which gene had gone awry when a chatterbox like William snuck in. He might have suspected that his brother was switched if he hadn't raised this guy himself. Rubbing his temples, which were throbbing from the constant chatter, George sternly commanded, "Shut up!" The tail-wagging William immediately fell silent, looking dejected. "Oh." Sitting beside William, George could see Milly's desk from the corner of his eye, The books in the desk compartment were neatly arranged, and he could faintly see the graceful handwriting on the folded test papers. A pink cup sat on the desk, emanating a clean and gentle ambience.

Running his fingertips over the items, George's heavy mood lightened slightly just by observing things associated with her.

8:08 Sat, 22 Jun (R) -T Chapter 35 Mutual Jealousy 63% It's quite a coincidence that William and my fiancée shared a table. Is this fate's way of facilitating our close interaction? Thinking about this, he couldn't help but smile. I must find a way to evade the three troublemakers and take my fiancée home.

Whether Leon noticed his scrutiny or not, he shifted his figure to block George's line of sight.

Unfazed by being caught staring, George confidently raised his eyes to meet Leon's. "Mr. Smith, I've heard of your esteemed reputation."

While investigating Milly's situation in the Burnetts, George also asso delved into her past. He knew the Smiths treated Milly well, regarding her as their daughter.

As the saying goes, love me, love my dog. He held a favourable view Smith family, but only tow of the towards the foster parents. As for the foster brother before him.... The more I look, the more irritating it gets.

Upon hearing his greeting, Leon maintained his gentle and soft expression. “Hello, Mr. Tate."

George lazily crossed his long legs, exuding an innate air of nobility. His thin lips slightly parted. Mr. Smith, we are practically family. No need for such formality." A flicker of amusement crossed Leon's face. "Mr. Tate, you have quite the sense of humour.

Remaining composed, George responded, Tm not joking. Milly is fiancée. According to seniority.

my you're indeed an elder brother. But I'm afraid it might startle you at our first meeting. There's no rush. We have plenty of tto get acquainted."
