Silence took over the scene as everyone awaited Milly’s response.

One second, two seconds…

Stephanie’s eyes turned cold when she spotted Vajra approaching Milly, a storm brewing in her expression.

She thought she had everything figured out but hadn’t seen this coming. The thought of Milly managing to get Vajra’s attention!

If Milly could become Vajra’s disciple, she would be superior to Stephanie. What was the point of everything Stephanie had done until now?

Yet, with everyone’s eyes on Milly, Stephanie felt helpless, unsure how to sabotage this development.
