Chapter 50 Milly’s Fall from Grace 1

Stephanie returned to her room and dialled a number on her phone.

After two busy tones, the phone was answered, and a deep, magnetic voice filled with indulgence came from the other end. “Hello, is this Stephanie? Why did you suddenly call me?”

Stephanie immediately began to complain with a pitiful tone. “Sob sob. Matthew. Jordan and Anthony bullied me. They don’t love me anymore. I’m so sad….

The person on the other end of the phone was Matthew, the second son of the Burnetts.

He was currently the top disciple of a well–known designer in the country and a member of the influential design team “One.” He had won numerous domestic and international awards for fashion and styling design, earning him the title of the true fashion darling”

At this point. Stephanie’s eyes were resentful, and she gritted her teeth. “It’s all because of Milly!”

Matthew was momentarily confused when he heard this name. “Milly?”

Only then did Stephanie realise her tone was wrong and quickly corrected herself. “No… I mean, it’s our sister. Matthew, you forgot? Her name is Milly.
