A Film Queen

Chapter 328 Easy

With Jordan and Philip in agreement, nobody else felt brave enough to raise an objection.

Milly tried to calm Apollo, asking him to wait for her while she went downstairs.

Normally, Apollo would heed her soft, soothing voice and wait patiently here, even if he did not want to. However, this time, no matter what she said, he stubbornly refused to release her arm.

Even when he saw her trying to forcefully free herself, Apollo reacted by crying out loudly, his eyes becoming intensely red, resembling a distressed little wolf cub.

Milly sighed softly.

This was the first time since her return with Apollo that he had shown such intense attachment. Clearly, her long absence had deeply impacted him; he now clung to her, terrified she might leave again.

As she contemplated this, Jordan’s steady voice cut through the silence. “Bring him with you. The sooner you leave, the sooner you’ll return.”

Milly’s eyes brightened upon hearing that.

Why hadn’t she thought of that? George was familiar with Apollo, so taking him along should not be an issue. Despite his amnesia, Apollo recognised him, and as long as Apollo behaved normally, it would not raise any suspicions.

Wait…

Why is Jordan so casual about letting me take Apollo?

Did he know something I don’t?

As she was about to ask, she caught Jordan’s gaze. His eyes were unreadable and cold, and he simply said, “Hurry back. We’ll be waiting.”

His look carried a deep understanding.

Milly had a question ready, but she held it back, hesitating briefly before responding, “Okay.”

Agreeing, she took Apollo and left.

He stomped on the floor, exclaiming, “Jordan, why did you let her go? Do you know who she’s meeting? She’s meeting
