Chapter 154

Leonard paused for a moment, sensing Mila wouldn't want to hear the word "cold," and wisely diverted the conversation away from illness.

"Madam, you were quite bold this time. You should be more careful in the future."

Mila frowned, "Is that all?"

Leonard didn't show any emotion despite her cold reception. He stood up silently, but before leaving, he turned back to her with an indifferent gaze.

"Madam, that's just my personal advice."

"You'd be wise to drop the lawsuit and continue as best you can. If you escalate things, you'll be the one who suffers."

Mila laughed, a bitter laugh, "What, you plan to lock me up again? Leonard, do you even have a heart?"

The thought of events from seven years ago stirred emotions she couldn't easily calm.
