Chapter 245 Milly's Acceptance Letter Even Milly now finds herself pitying Ivan as she casts him a sorry look.

Ivan didn't understand what was going on.

Did I say something inappropriate? +5 Pearls But now is really not the tto be posting things on Twitter. The current excitement has not even settled yet, and posting anything will only add fuel to the fire and make things worse. We should wait until things calm down. Is that not common sense! Everyone should know that! Milly glanced at Ivan, who looked bewildered. Normally, she might have defended him in the past, but now that she had finally calmed Jordan down after so much effort, she felt Ivan was jeopardising the peace. She considered herself generous enough to not kick him while he was down.

As expected. Jordan's face, which had briefly softened just moments earlier, turned dark again. His glare at Ivan was full of threat, as if he wanted to choke him to death.

Ivan recoiled, intimidated by the CEO's menacing look. "Mr. Burnett, I...

Meanwhile, Jordan adjusted his cuff, opened the car door for Milly, and the "Consider your year-end bonus gone." Ivan's jaw dropped as he regretted his life choices.

gave Ivan a cold glance.

Entering the courtyard, they spotted Stephanie standing outside the villa, holding something. Xavier was standing beside her, thoughtfully holding an umbrella to shield her from the sun.

Seeing their return, Stephanie's eyes lit up, and she hurried over at a brisk pace.

"Grandpa, Grandpa!" Philip, still elated from-sharing the joy of his interview with his friends, was in high spirits at this moment. Hearing Stephanie's voice, he responded with unusual concern, "Stephanie, take it easy. You're still recovering from your injury, so there's no need to rush." Stephanie's eyes brightened further at Philip's concern. She glanced at Milly, who was standing beside Philip, and raised her chin slightly with a hint of pride in her eyes, like a proud peacock.

Hmph, Milly, so what if you have Jordan's protection and get to ride in the scar as Grandpa? In the end, Grandpa cares more about me! Smiling sweetly, her eyes curving into a crescent shape, Stephanie said, "Grandpa, I received the acceptance letter from the university. I want to thank you for guidingall these years, so I am letting you open the letter." A touch of pride even flickered across her face after she spoke.

It was an acceptance letter from AdoUniversity, a prestigious national institution. Even she hadn't expected to perform so well and gain admission! 08:49 Mon, 8 Chapter 245 Milly's Acceptance Letter 76%0 +5 Pearls She was sure Milly's mysteriously getting the first place during the examinations in school had to involve Skind of deception. She believed that no one could improve that much without using shady methods. Now that university admissions were out, Milly's nwasn't among those accepted by top schools. Flah, her cover has been blown now! But Stephanie was different. Although she did not make it into Class A at Crestwood High, she had endured rigorous training, which honed her skills. Besides, she had performed exceptionally well in the college entrance exams, securing her place at AdoUniversity.

Philip valued strength above all else, just as he had recognised Apollo's strength and allowed him to stay with the Burnetts.

This time, she wanted to see how Milly could possibly compete with her.

Xavier, holding the umbrella for Stephanie, was quick to put in a good word for her as well. "Grandpa, Stephanie really wants you to do the honours. She has been waiting at the door to share her joy with you. I told her to go inside, but she refused. She insisted on waiting for you to chome." Then he glanced meaningfully at Milly with a hint of sarcasm. “Unlike speople who don't even think to repay kindness." Milly's mouth twitched. Speople... Is he talking about me? Philip, who was oblivious to the tension among the siblings and was already happy after his interview, immediately beamed upon hearing their words. "Stephanie, my sweet dear, you're so mature and considerate. Great, let's go inside. I'll open it right away!" "Alright!" Stephanie couldn't contain the pride on her face as she glanced arrogantly at Milly.

Milly was perplexed.

Wow, without saying a word, these two have already invented a whole in their minds.

Entering the villa, Milly immediately spotted Anthony and Jonathan glaring intensely at Matthew and Jeffrey, who were seated on the sofa. The atmosphere was tense.

Is today a good day for a fight or something? Anthony and Jonathan turned simultaneously at the sound of the door. Seeing Milly, their serious expressions melted into innocent smiles.

"Milly, csit here!" they called out in exaggerated, childlike voices, as if coaxing a toddler.

Milly smiled and walked over before, taking a seat between them. But before she could say anything.. Anthony lar ented, "Oh, Milly, you're sitting closer to Jonathan. Do you like him more than me?" Milly was again too stunned for words. He's jealous again! Will he ever stop? Jonathan rolled up his sleeves and glared at Anthony. "Anthony, stop being so sarcastic. Clearly, she's closer to you!" "No, she's closer to you! You're so shameless!" "No, you are! You're the shameless one!" Chapter 245 Milly's Acceptance Letter "You're the most shameless!" "You're the most, most, most shameless!" Their bickering filled the room.

+5 Pearls Sitting between them, Milly felt like her head might explode. Were these two a pair of arguing parrots in a past life?

Just as she thought she might drown.

in their squabble, a firm hand pulled firm hand her up and seated her on the farthest sofa away from the bickering brothers. Anthony and Jonathan were frozen for a minute.

Where did Milly go? She was just here!

Jordan looked at them expressionlessly, his gaze carrying an unreadable hint as he spoke, if you're going to argue, I'll let her sit far away. That way, neither of you will be next to her." Apollo, who had been clinging to Milly, nodded vigorously as well. Yes, yes, ah-woo. Milly should sit with me.

Milly looked at him with a speechless expression.

I have to admit, Jordan is clever. My ears can finally catch a break now.

Just as she began to relax, she felt two intense gazes on her. Looking up, she met two pairs of eyes, shooting her serious stares.

Matthew, catching her eye, huffed coldly and turned away, clearly not in the mood to interact.

Jeffrey, more composed, met her gaze with cool eyes that briefly flickered with something sharp before he smiled slightly, as if greeting her.

Milly narrowed her eyes, suspicious of Jeffrey's sudden friendliness. What is he plotting?

Stephanie, beaming widely, assisted Philip into the house. Upon their entry, Anthony and Jonathan were still arguing and unwilling to back wing down, which immediately caused Philip to furrow his brow. He tapped his cane on the floor, scolding, "What are you two bickering about? You're creating sound pollution! Look at your sisters' accomplishmen X
