Chapter: 133
A whole hour passed at the café before Gianna made her tardy appearance.
The sight of Millie's unblemished complexion incensed Gianna.
She had feared Millie’s beauty would outshine her own daughter's since Millie
was a child. This insecurity had driven her to plot Millie’s disfigurement.
Yet, something had evidently gone awry, and Millie's face was unmarred.
“All these years, you were a wolf in sheep’s clothing, masquerading as a beast to
fool me,” Gianna spat out, her words laced with ire as she claimed her seat.
Cocking her head, Millie posed a question. “Gianna, you frame it rather oddly. If I
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 paint me as 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. I 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, I 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.”
“You ungrateful brat! You're berating me, aren't you?! I see through your ploy. All
you want is to cure that wretched hag. No chance! I eagerly await her demise.”
Asullen expression washed over Millie.

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.
