Chapter 342 Threatening Philip

“Haha! A classic love–struck fool!TM”

A flurry of comments among the crowds continued.

The murmurs around them weren’t lost on Milly. Although those comments sounded quite absurd, those people were right about something. She was standing up for Anthony.

She couldn’t help it; Milly was fiercely protective of her family.

After all, it was Fiona who started this whole mess. Plus, she didn’t really want to be the center of attention. If Fiona had just targeted her alone, she would have resolved it and moved on.

But Fiona foolishly decided to provoke Anthony…

She might tease and criticise Anthony in private, but that was just a family squabble. Outsiders had no right to interfere!

Especially Stephanie–before Milly came into the picture, Anthony had been nothing but kind and generous to her. And now, she was helping outsiders stab her brother in the back?

Listening to her words, Philip’s anger flared up. He roared, “Isn’t this just about a dirty sofa? Once I dealt with it, this matter was over. It’s not a big deal. Why keep arguing about it?”

In his youth, Philip had served in the military, leading several death squads. After the country’s establishment, Philip rose to the rank of general, maintaining command over a significant number of people. When he founded the Burnett Group, he continued as a leader.

Throughout his life, his words represented authority. The old man was accustomed to making final decisions. Before, no one had dared to oppose him so directly.

Milly met his eyes fearlessly, her gaze steady and clear. She said, “This may seem like a small issue, but if we wrong an innocent person over something trivial, it’s no longer a small issue.

“Grandpa, you’ve been a leader. You know the loss of public trust due to poor leadership is significant. Is that a small matter? If we dismiss this as trivial, what counts as important?”
