Chapter 322 Woof

It was Xavier.

What was he doing here at this hour?

y frowned. To avoid suspicion, she quickly exited the dark web page and opened a regular game app. Once the game screen was up, she called out, “Come in.”

Xavier, dressed in a white and gray casual outfit, looked tall and elegant. The scars on his face had healed, restoring his imposing appearance,

However, dark circles under his eyes betrayed his exhaustion, though his gaze remained sharp and focused as he looked at her. “Milly-

Milly frowned, not understanding why he was there. “Mr. Xavier? What do you need?”

Her cold and distant tone made the glimmer of hope in Xavier’s eyes fade a little.

Milly still held a grudge against him

Xavier forced a smile, a hint of sadness creeping in. “Milly, do you have to be so distant? I know I was a j*rk before, but I’ve learned my lesson. From now on, I’ll treat you well. No, I’ll treat you the best. Please, stop calling me Mr. Xavier.”

Milly remained unmoved. I thought I made it clear before. We’re not close enough for nicknames, and it was you who insisted I call you Mr. Xavier.”

Xavier regretted his past actions deeply. This was truly a case of reaping what you sow.

Milly used to call him affectionately by his name, but he had demanded she stop. Now that she did, he regretted it.

What a fool he had been.

But his sister was more important than his pride.

With a thick skin, Xavier continued to plead, “Milly, I was being stupid then. Can’t you just let it go? How

Woof… about this: I’ll bark like a dog to make it up to you.

Before he could start, Milly quickly covered his mouth. “Shut up! Do you want the nurses to think there’s a stray dog in here?”

Milly couldn’t understand what had happened to Xavier. He used to be so proud and dignified, and now he was willing to bark like a dog.

Wasn’t he the top student everyone admired? He got into Crestfallen University’s Life Theory and Scientific Research program, so his intelligence should be normal, right?

She had made it clear before, and any sensible person would have stopped pestering her. Why was Xavier still so persistent? Did he see some hidden value in her that she wasn’t aware of?

It all made sense now!

Based on the description in the book, only Stephanie could make Xavier act this way. It seemed Xavier was trying to earn Milly’s favour to prevent her from causing trouble for Stephanie or even suing her for attempted murder.

How touching their sibling bond was indeed strong

For some reason, Milly felt her teeth itch with irritation.

Xavier, with his mouth covered, blinked pitifully and didn’t dare to move.

He just wanted to make Milly feel better, but why did she seem even angrier? Had he said something wrong again?

Seeing Xavier behaving, Milly removed her hand and spoke coldly. “Mr. Xavier, what brings you here today? Say what you need and then leave. I have things to do.”

Xavier glanced at her stern face and dared not say anything unnecessary. Obediently, he opened the folder he brought, took out a few documents, and placed them on the bed. He said, “Milly, I’ve been investigating your fall during the training exercise. The heavy rain washed away most of the evidence, but luckily, several people saw Stephanie approach you, and one person witnessed her pushing you. We have eyewitnesses, but.

Milly’s expression grew colder.

So she was right. Xavier was here because of Stephanie, trying to persuade her to give Stephanie another

chance.

Milly wasn’t having it!

If Stephanie’s actions had been mere pranks, Milly might have shrugged them off as minor nuisances.

But this time was different, Stephanie had tried to kill her!

Though Milly had survived by luck, she couldn’t rely on luck forever.

Stephanie was a danger that needed to be dealt with. Milly had to take this chance to strike hard. Even if she couldn’t get Stephanie killed, she had to ensure she spent years in prison.

Milly looked up at Xavier, suddenly laughing coldly. She continued his unfinished sentence, “But, Mr. Xavier, you’re soft–hearted and can’t bear to see your sister suffer. So you come here, lowering yourself to play nice with me for her sake. Isn’t that right?”

Milly tried to keep her anger in check, but her words were still sharp.

Even with his brilliant mind, Xavier was momentarily baffled by the sudden shift in her tone.

What suffering sister? What lowering himself? What playing nie?

He didn’t understand, but he didn’t dare ask, fearing it would anger Milly further. He frowned and brainstormed, trying to grasp Milly’s meaning.

Seeing his silence, Milly assumed he was conceding and sneered, rolling her eyes. “How considerate of you. But I won’t let her off. Why should I spare someone who tried to kill me? Do you think I’m some

saint?

“Instead of wasting time here, you should think about finding Stephanie a good lawyer.”

At this point, Xavier finally realised Milly had misunderstood his intentions.
