Chapter 275 A Little More Debt Isn’t a Big Deal

“Huh?” Milly didn’t quite get what ho

meant.

She had just suggested he go back and rest, so how did recharging connect to that?

“What do you mean by ‘recharge?”

George smiled softly, his expression bright and warm like the early autumn breeze outside, stirring something in her. “I mean hugging you. Can I?”

Milly was surprised.

It wasn’t the first time she’d heard such a direct request. In the entertainment industry, people from all walks of life would say things like that casually, as if it was no big deal. Usually, she’d frown at such remarks in disgust, but this time, she didn’t feel a hint of aversion at all.

In her mind, George always seemed aloof and in control. His status and authority meant he never had to act submissive. Yet, in that brief moment just now, she sensed a hint of vulnerability in him.

Thinking about it more carefully, it seemed like that was how he always spoke to her, but she hadn’t paid attention to it before.

George noticed her tense expression and couldn’t help but shake his head. Lack of sleep really makes people slow!

How could I blurt out my inner thoughts like that?

He was well aware of how resistant this little brat was to him. Yet here he was, blurting out his inner thoughts just like that. Not getting out of the car was probably the most respectful gesture she could muster.

“Ahem, I didn’t mean it that way just now,” George explained, furrowing his brow. If you looked closely, you could see a hint of regret on his face.

“Never mind, just chalk it up to me talking nonsense from lack of sleep these past few days. I tend to speak without a filter, so don’t take it to heart.

“It’s been too busy these days, even missed the start of your school year. I found at small villa near your school. It’s in a great location, and I thought of it as a back–to-
