Chapter 230

“Millie Caldwell, that was low! The incident happened a while ago! Why would you dig it up at thistime? Is this your revenge against my family because Winston is divorcing you?”

Staring at Joanna, Millie finally understood the reason behind her anger. Joanna mistakenly thoughtit was Millie who had released the news to the media.

She scrambled up from the bed, but Joanna tried to shove her again. She slapped Joanna’s handaway. causing the latter to stagger backward.

Scowling, Joanna glowered at Millle.

Millie gracefully tidied her shirt and her hair. Then, she fixed her gaze on Joanna. “It wasn’t me.”

“Quit acting! You always act like a goody two shoes, when in reality, you’re the most hypocriticaland shameless of all!” Joanna pointed a finger at Millie. Her eyes hardened with anger.

When the media covered the Snowdrop incident, she and the Lowells instantly became socialpariahs. Reputational damage aside, the scandal had affected the stock price of Lowell Group.

“I told you it wasn’t me. Joanna, stop making a scene and get the fuck out of my room!” Millie’spatience gradually wore thin.

“Millie Caldwell, I need you to immediately host a press conference and admit that you tipped off themedia. I need you to issue an apology to my family!” Joanna gripped Millie’s arm, resentmentflashing across her eyes.

“First of all, I had nothing to do with the exposé. Secondly, even if I did it, I would still be stating thefacts. Why would I apologize for telling the truth?” Millie pushed Joanna away irritatedly.

Joanna, who had always acted like a fragile flower, suddenly turned into a beast when she wasaround Millie.

She hissed, “Millie, you’re a coward who refuses to own up to your actions!”

Millie removed her patient uniform and tossed it onto the bed. Then, she confronted Joanna coldly,“And what about you?”

What about her? Joanna was taken aback by the question.

“Ms. Lowell, did you own up to your actions?” Millie narrowed her eyes and inched closer toJoanna.” -Dare you tell the world that you got into medical school by impersonating me?”

Joanna’s expression froze. Gulping with a frown, she began, “Millie…”

“Also, you claimed that you saw ghosts when you were super sick a few days ago…” Millie nearlybroke out laughing at the absurd situation. Her smile twisted into a scowl.

“Dare you admit to kidnapping me and drowning me?” Millie gripped Joanna’s collar and hissed in adismal and devilish voice.

The light instantly faded from Joanna’s eyes, leaving behind nothing but fear. She thought, “How didMillie

know that I was behind her kidnapping?”

*Joanna, you cannot keep secrets forever. I, Millie Caldwell, am not to be messed with. Do not takeadvantage of my tolerance to fuck around. Got it?”
