Chapter 7 The Hedgehog

George received a signal from his grandfather, pursed his lips, and said, “Mr. Burnett is correct, this is indeed a bit presumptuous.” Jordan, seeing that he understood the situation, nodded, “Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Tate.” Upon hearing his words, Milly completely relaxed, and her tense shoulders loosened. She really didn’t want to get married as soon as she arrived! And she was going to marry this man, who was obviously not easy to deal with! Earlier in the garden, she had threatened him so much. If she really married him, she didn’t know how he would treat her. George naturally also saw Milly behind Jordan relax, a hint of a meaningful smile suddenly appeared on his face. No rush. Only when the hedgehog puts away its spines will it allow itself to be approached by its soft belly. ……

The next day arrived. When Milly came downstairs, everyone was already waiting for her at the dining table. Stephanie saw her coming downstairs, her face full of enthusiasm, but her eyes were still a bit swollen. “Milly, good morning.” The overly affectionate tone made Milly frown, but she still nodded. Jordan waved to her and whispered, “Milly, come sit next to me.” Milly obediently nodded. Jordan placed a peeled egg on her plate and whispered, “Milly, eat the egg.” Milly looked at the boiled egg with some resistance, her furrowed brow full of disgust.

If there is anything you are not satisfied with, just tell me, and I will help you modify it.” Stephanie said it enthusiastically.

Burnetts. After raising her for so long, it could be considered fulfilling their duty. If she didn’t firmly hold on to Milly’s parents, then it really wouldn’t be good in the future. In the Burnetts, Stephanie was the pampered young lady with no worries about food and clothing! If she really left the Burnetts, she would be nothing. She would never be content with the days of taking the bus to school and living in a small rental room. Olivia was a simple woman, so she didn’t catch the meaning in Stephanie’s words, “Milly, if you need anything, just tell me.” Milly didn’t like Stephanie, but she really liked this mother. When she

“That’s good.”

the way, Milly, just now Mom and Dad asked which high school you want to go to. My classmates are at the attached high school. If you go there, I can have them take care of you.” Stephanie raised her eyebrows and said. The attached high school, Wan Adonio, is a mediocre high school, neither good nor bad. This remark made Jordan’s brow furrow. How could his own dear sister go to such a low-class school? “Don’t go to the attached high school, the facilities there are too poor. Milly, I know the principal of Bullard High. I will donate a laboratory building to
