Chapter 308 A Private Conversation

George lay in the hospital bed, seeming distressed by a headache caused by the noise. He closed his eyes. weakly and murmured, “Could you step out for a while? I need to have a private talk.

Scarface stared angrily at Milly, his fists tightly clenched, emitting a slight sound. “Didn’t you hear Master’s request for you to leave? I’ll handle you later!”

Milly’s gaze shifted nervously, yet she remained steadfast.

Uncertain whether George meant her or Scarface by “you“, she was determined not to leave.

She had questions for George and feared that leaving might mean never seeing him again.

Seeing her still unmoving, Scarface’s sinister gaze narrowed. Just as he was about to call in the others to drag Milly out, George suddenly spoke again, this time with clear impatience, “Scarface, get out!”

Scarface was momentarily taken aback. “What? Master….

Wait, shouldn’t the woman be the one departing?

“Get out, now!

Scarface suppressed the words he was ready to utter. Despite not comprehending why George ordered him to depart and leave the woman behind, he obeyed his command.

As he walked past Milly, he couldn’t help but caution her, “I’ll be waiting outside. If you try anything against Master, I’ll personally kill you!”

His feelings toward Milly were now a mix of hostility and distrust. Despite George’s previous fondness for her, she didn’t even respond. Now that George was in trouble, she appeared here, pretending to care.

Without her, how could Master have been targeted by the Ghost Sect! Keeping her here is nothing but trouble!

He vowed to wait until George finished talking to her, then find an opportunity to eliminate her once and for all, to prevent any future troubles.
