A Film Queen

Chapter 230 George Calms Her Down

“Who is it!”

Milly shouted angrily, her voice filled with enough fury to make it seem like she might charge out and attack someone.

Were these people crazy? Why weren’t they sleeping in the middle of the night?

A low, magnetic male voice came from outside. If she listened closely, she could detect a hint of amusement in it. “It’s me.”

George!

Milly froze, her movements becoming stiff.

Why was he here? He must have seen her earlier. Was he coming over to mock her or ridicule her?

Hmph, this jerk had ulterior motives.

Milly turned over, pretending not to hear and planning to continue acting asleep.

But the more she thought about it, the more it didn’t make sense. George had already seen her notice them earlier. If she didn’t open the door now, it would only make her look guilty.

No, she couldn’t let him have the upper hand. She couldn’t let him think she had something to hide.

She stood up, put on her shoes, and yanked the door open in one swift motion, not a hint of hesitation.

“Do you need something?” Milly tried to keep her voice as calm as usual, her eyes steady and untroubled.

George, standing at the door, looked cheerful, his brows raised in a smile. He was clearly in a good mood, without any attempt to hide it.

Milly bit her lip, cursing inwardly, Show–off!
