“Bring Millie here immediately if you don’t want your fiancée to get beaten up. Do you understand?”

After ending the call, the kidnappers grinned triumphantly.

One of them declared, “Once we have the woman, we’ll call the CEO of the Thomas

Group and demand twenty million dollars from him.”

The other said, “With that much money, we can migrate abroad and live a comfortable life there.”

Meanwhile, Leon could not quite believe his ears. Bothered by his silence, his assistant asked, “What’s

wrong, sir? The money will be here soon.”

“There’s no need for that,” Leon muttered.

“What? Don’t you want to save Miss Rayne?” the assistant exclaimed in shock.

“I need to bring someone there in exchange for her.”

Leon knew that he had to save Lois. Her safety, without a doubt, should be his top priority. In addition,

Millie was Marcus’ wife, and he happened to hate both of them.

The assistant asked, “Who?”

Leon’s grip on the phone grew tighter as he felt a tightening in his throat. It ought to have been an easy

choice, but for some reason, it was not.

When the doctor had finished making his rounds, Millie approached him.

He asked, “Have you made up your mind?”

Millie nodded solemnly. “Yes, I’ve decided to complete my grandma’s discharge paperwork.”

Her grandmother loved their hometown very much and thought it was the most beautiful place in the

world. She also specifically requested that, after her death, her ashes be dispersed as if they were a

grain of soil among the flowers and plants.

That was why Millie decided to bring her home so that she could take in the sights, sounds, and scent

of her hometown one last time.

Millie was snapped out of her reverie when her phone rang. Leon was calling her.

Her eyes widened in shock. Did the man change his mind about operating on her grandmother?

She willed herself to calm down as she answered the call and asked, “Are you going to operate on my

grandmother now?”

Leon’s next words astonished Millie.

After a moment, her grip on her phone tightened. “So, in exchange for me replacing Lois, you’ll operate

on my grandmother? You’re not lying to me, are you? Will you really do it?”
