Millie let her arms fall to her sides. The man’s words hit a nerve in her.
Not only did he accuse her of being deceitful, but he also compared her to
Marcus.
Suddenly, she felt like Marcus was better than Leon. She had never met
someone so scathing.
“So what if I praise Grandma every now and then and do as she says? Don’t you
have eyes? Can't you see that she’s already old? Unlike you, I don’t want her to
be sad; unlike you, I don’t want her to become so worked up that she can’t
breathe because of anger; and unlike you, I have a sense of filial piety.” As she
talked, Millie angled her body forward.
She scoffed at the man before turning around to retreat to the house.
However, she suddenly realized that Leon was still on his knees outside, which
meant he still respected his grandmother.
She then recalled what she discovered at Skyline. If she was not mistaken, Leon
was the founder of the Dayen Group. He was a member of the Thomas family,
but he started a rival company to undermine the family’s interests.
If his grandmother found out about this, she would be furious.
Millie redirected her attention back to Leon and advanced one step closer to him.
“What is it?”
Leon asked, correctly guessing that she wanted to say something to him. Millie
took a deep breath before looking him straight in the eye.
“Does Grandma know that you're operating another company to work against the
Thomas Group's interests?”
“You're actually smart, aren't you? You just look stupid. So, what are you going to
do with that information? Blackmail me?”
“That's right. I promise not to tell her about it if you agree to operate on my
grandmother. If you disagree, I'll tell her right now what you've been doing all this
time,” Millie declared firmly. She needed to act tough to intimidate Leon.
“That again? Whatever. I'm pretty sure you won't say a word about it to Grandma
even if I don’t agree to operate on your grandmother.”
Leon smirked.
Millie's jaw tightened in shock. How did he know that she would not do that?
Could he read minds?
Indeed, she would not tell on him to Grandma, as she did not want to upset her.

“Am I wrong? Go ahead and tell Grandma, then. I'll wait here,” Leon challenged.

As she quickly retreated towards the
room, it appeared as if she was ready
to reveal the truth to Claudia.
However, the moment she stepped
inside the room, her spirit faltered.
