Abruptly, Millie lifted her head from her coffee and directed her gaze towards him.
However, after a few fleeting moments, Millie gently shook her head.
“I won't be fooled. Even Miss Rayne couldn't soften you. How can I possibly
succeed?”
The joviality on Leon's face quickly disappeared. He paused his egg-peeling.
“You know?"
Millie was taken aback by his reaction. A wave of fear passed through her, but
she decided there was no point in hiding.
“Yes, I know. I saw it by chance when I visited a friend at the hospital yesterday. I
didn't intentionally investigate.”
“Do you consider me selfish?” Leon asked casually.
Millie pondered over the change in the man’s demeanor. Typically, he avoided
interactions with her, yet today, he engaged in extended conversation. Could his
behavior be influenced by Miss Rayne's suicide?
“You want the truth?” Millie asked. “I don't think Miss Rayne’s sacrifice was worth
it”
A girl slashing her own wrist must have immense desperation. This man must
have deeply disappointed her.
Suddenly, Leon sneered, “Would it be better for her to marry me and live like a
widow or to wait for a worthy person and move on? What's best for her?”
Millie was stunned, her eyes inadvertently scanning Leon's form. The news was
explosive. Such an attractive man was unable to have sex. It seemed like such a
waste.
“What do you mean by being a widow?”
Observing the startled expression on Millie’s countenance, he deduced her
misconception. Being subjected to such questioning didn't sit well with the man,
as evidenced by the slight furrowing of his brow.
“Do you think I'm impotent?”
Millie quickly averted her gaze and asked, “What did you mean by that?”
Suddenly, she recalled Delmor’s words from yesterday.

Meanwhile, Millie exuded an
exuberance akin to that of a radiant
sunflower, blossoming under the
sun's warmth. If Aisha were still

of a similar age to Millie. Like Millie,
