Chapter 224 Harboured Grudges

The original Milly had been living with the Burnetts for quite some time, but they never took her to visit the ancestors. Now that she had embraced Buddhism, they suddenly remembered to do that.

Heh, but I won’t go!

She harboured grudges, and now that she was in the original Milly’s shoes, she would hold onto those grudges as well!

“Amitabha. In this sacred realm of Buddhism, it’s more fitting to address me as Emptiness, in accordance with the Buddha’s teachings. Besides, all beings are treated equally under the Buddha’s protection. Buddhism’s profound compassion treats everyone impartially, without the concept of ancestry.”

Finally, with an awkward expression on his stern face, he gave himself a way out, though his tone remained authoritative. “Well then… it’s good that you see it this way.”

He couldn’t bring himself to call her ‘Master Emptiness, so he turned and left in a huff.

Watching Philip’s frustration, Milly felt a sense of satisfaction, a smile curling her lips.

She had once tried to please Philip to secure Apollo’s position, but now that Jordan was clearly on her side and Apollo’s position was secured, he had nothing on her anymore, so she saw no need to be deferential to Philip.

Despite his seniority, he had recently attempted to expel her from the Burnetts, so she saw no reason to show him respect.
