Chapter 1271

“So, all of this was just to keep you trapped here in the countryside? No matter why they are doing this,

Millie, you can’t let them win. Don’t worry about me. You have to go back to Preagend tomorrow.”

The old woman was so agitated and furious after hearing that. She couldn’t let them win.

Millie patted her grandmother’s hand to calm her.

“Grandma, stay calm, The most important thing right now is for you to focus on recovering.” Millie

looked down at her sternly.

“How am I expected to stay calm when someone is coming after you?

They can come for me if they want, but I cannot let them harm you!”

The old woman refused to listen to her.

Millie nodded in agreement.

“I’m with you on that one. Trust me, they won’t succeed.”

Millie comforted her grandmother until she fell asleep. Then, she saw Tobin out.

“Miss Brown, I will do everything in my power to find the assailant who targeted your grandmother,”

Tobin stated.

“Thank you,” Millie replied.

After Tobin left, a thought suddenly crossed Millie’s mind. She took out her phone in a haste.

She recalled the woman who had shocked her with electricity at the airport. The woman was heavily

wrapped. The only part of her body that was uncovered, was her eyes. Shit! Her eyes!

Millie searched for Shera’s picture on her phone until she saw it.

She covered the other parts of Shera’s face, leaving only her eyes exposed.

They were identical to the eyes of the woman at the airport.

Millie was petrified. It turned out that Shera had returned long ago and had already started gunning for

her.

Millie’s intuition told her that it was Shera that asked someone to hit her grandmother with a

motorcycle.

She surely did this, knowing that Millie would stay back in the countryside and take care of her

grandmother. That way, Shera would have enough time to get close to Marcus and build a relationship

with him.

That had to be why. What other reason could there be?

Millie still recalled the time when Rhea accidentally mentioned Shera in front of her. She could sense

that there was a sort of relationship that was Left hanging between Shera and Marcus.

It was obvious that Shera wouldn’t be pleased to come back and find the man she loved married to

another woman. No one would be.

Millie curled her lips and took a deep breath. Being Mrs. Thomas was a position that a lot of people

coveted.
