Chapter 248 Apologise to Milly

When Stephanie spoke again, she had adopted a pitiful, hurt expression. She bit her lip and trembled slightly. “Milly, please don’t misunderstand me. I didn’t mean anything bad. I’m just afraid you might miss. out on your acceptance letter and end up without a university to attend. All your hard work over the years would be wasted. It’s my fault for raising my voice, but I really care about you, Milly. You don’t blame me, do you?”

Her voice choked up, and tears welled up in her reddened eyes, making her look utterly pitiful.

Immediately, Matthew and Xavier, who had always doted on her, were enraged. Their protective instincts flared up instantly.

They glared at Milly, their eyes filled with a desire to tear her apart. Stephanie was so kind, always thinking of Milly, yet Milly hadn’t offered a single word of comfort. She just stood there, watching Stephanie with a detached expression.

It was too much!

Xavier angrily confronted Milly, “Stephanie is only looking out for you. She genuinely cares about you like a sister. It’s not her fault if she got emotional. Can’t you at least comfort her? Is your heart made of stone?”

Matthew also voiced his indignation, “Exactly. You don’t act like an older sister at all. Stephanie is clearly the more mature one here.”

Milly listened quietly, not rushing to explain herself.

“Reasons?” Xavier scoffed, full of disdain. “Stephanie, stop defending her. She knows perfectly well if she has any reasons. She’s just wasting your kindness.”

Milly couldn’t help but laugh.

If someone else had said this, she might not have minded, but Xavier said it was just stirring up trouble. He worked in this field and knew that her program didn’t issue acceptance letters. Students were admitted based on recognition alone.
