Chapter 62 Investing 15 Million Dollars

Anthony relished his sister’s gentle and loving actions towards him, completely immersed in the moment, when he was suddenly disturbed, causing his demeanour to quickly turn gloomy.

As he shifted his gaze towards Stephanie, positioned behind him, he icily commented, “Isn’t it a fundamental lesson in education to show deference to both seniors and juniors? When did it become your prerogative to admonish Milly?”

Stephanie felt unfairly rebuked. “Anthony, I didn’t intend any wrongdoing. I simply wished to aid you…”

“No need. Concentrate on your own duties and refrain from expressing your opinions. If I encounter such comments from you again, I’ll promptly notify our parents abroad about the matter.”

With that, Anthony pivoted and boarded the car without casting a second glance her way.

Stephanie hadn’t anticipated that Anthony would push the conversation this far. She quivered with fury, her eyes brimming with bitterness as she stamped her foot.

By addressing Stephanie in such a manner, he indirectly demonstrated his backing for Milly and asserted his dominance.

The implication was evident. Any unfavourable remarks aimed at Milly in his presence would lead to him informing their parents. They were all aware that her ongoing presence with the Burnetts following Milly’s return was mainly thanks to their parents. If their perception of her also deteriorated, she might lose her place with the Burnetts going forward.

D*rn it! It’s all because of Milly!

Stephanie gripped her fists firmly, her nails piercing her skin unnoticed.

Why did Milly come back? Why didn’t she simply die outside? Why wasn’t I the true heiress of a prosperous family!

Once hatred takes root, it flourishes like a desert flora, seeking even the slightest hint of moisture and spreading swiftly.

In the car, Milly shot a questioning glance at Anthony. Beside her, her eyebrow arched in curiosity. “Did you just tell Stephanie to respect her elders?”

Anthony blinked, caught off guard. “How did you figure that out?”

Hadn’t she gotten into the car earlier? Was the car’s soundproofing that terrible?

Milly chuckled softly. “Because I can read lips.”

Anthony was utterly taken aback. “You can read lips too? Did you deliberately learn that?”
