Mikayla readily nodded her head.
âYou can rest assured about that. I wonât mention the divorce in front of Mr. Zachary. Even after we get the divorce certificate, we can keep it lowâkey and not let others know.â
Despite hearing Mikaylaâs âconsiderateâ arrangements, Jerome did not feel happy at all.
âWeâre going to the Miller Villa now,â Jerome commanded.
âJerome, didnât I say Iâm not going?â Mikayla widened her eyes in surprise.
âSince weâre not divorced yet, you still have to carry out your duty as Mrs. Miller, Jerome replied.
The fact that she could meet Taylor but refused to accompany him to Miller Villa completely ignited his anger.
Seeing Jeromeâs determined expression, Mikayla didnât bother pursuing the matter further.
Miller Villa was located in a prime area. It was a threeâstory house with a spacious garden and courtyard.
Though Mikayla was Jeromeâs wife, sheâd never been inside the Miller Villa.
After graduating from college, Jerome moved out of Miller Villa to live alone.
After getting married, they bought the Dragoncrest Villa as their new residence.
Besides, with his parents not around and Wanda living in the Miller Manor, Mikayla had no reason to come here.
However, out of curiosity, she did beg him to take her there once..
âJay, take me to the Miller Villa. Thatâs your parentsâ home. As your wife, I should at least pay a visit and let the maids know who I am.â
Jeromeâs expression turned cold. âTheyâre not in the country so thereâs no need to .â
felt very disappointed at that time. She never mentioned it again to not upset Jerome Unexpectedly, as they were about to get a divorce, Jerome decided to bring her there himself.
As the driver drove into the courtyard, one of the maids walked over and greeted Jerome respectfully, âMr. Miller.â
Seeing Mikayla behind him, the maid hesitated for a moment. She didnât recognize her.
Jerome swiftly put his arm around Mikaylaâs shoulders. âSheâs Mikayla.â
Upon hearing the name, the maid quickly greeted, âMrs. Miller.â
Though she hadnât seen Mikayla in person, she was aware of her name.
This was something expected. Mikayla wasnât surprised at all.
She smiled faintly and walked into the house with Jerome.
âSir, Madam, have you eaten? Let me make something for you,â the maid asked proactively.
Mikayla shook her head. âThereâs no need to trouble yourself. Iâm not hungry.â
But Jerome said, âMake something light for her. Sheâs anemic and canât skip meals.â
The maid went to the kitchen.
âLetâs go upstairs and take a look,â Jerome said as she took Mikaylaâs hand.)
As Mikaylaâs hand was warmed by his palm, she was led upstairs by him.
He showed her which was the master bedroom and which were the guest rooms.
At that moment, Mikayla saw an image of her in the past, trapped in the mental hospital. Her expression was haggard, and her eyes were lifeless.
Her past must be envious of her in the present.
Chapter 706 373 As Jerome held her hand and walked her through Miller Villa, telling her about the layout of the villa, Mikayla suddenly started to .
âWhy are you suddenly crying? Are the lights too bright?â Jerome asked in confusion.
Mikayla wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes. âIâm not feeling that well. Iâll go down first.â
âWhatâs wrong?â Jerome said, still holding her hand. His eyes were full of concern. âIs it your shoulder? Or are you too hungry?â
Mikayla withdrew her hand and said calmly, âYouâre making me feel sick.â
