Shrouded Affections Winning Back My CEO Wife

Chapter 418:

After a prolonged silence, Milford finally looked up at her and said, “I’ve made up my mind. When the three days are up, I’ll still go to Zola’s. Anyway, I’ll be living on campus soon, so there’s no need to make her unhappy now. But the money I borrowed from you, I’ll pay back myself. I don’t want to owe her anything.”

Milford didn’t want Zola to use the debt as leverage to interfere in his life.

“If this is your decision after careful consideration, I respect it,” Eileen said while sitting next to him. “But if you’re worried about causing me any trouble, let me assure you, there’s no need. With the position I’m in right now, Zola can’t make things difficult for me.”

Eileen was no longer the cautious woman she once was.

“I’m not worried about causing you trouble. I just think that since this issue can be resolved easily, there’s no need to make a big deal out of it. Don’t worry, I’m not one for unnecessary sacrifices,” Milford joked, trying to put Eileen at ease.

Instinctively, Eileen crossed her arms over her chest. “No need!”
