“I didn’t expose your sister’s qualifications. There is nothing to talk about.” Millie refused to engage with any of the Lowells.

explained, “Ms. Caldwell, I come in peace.”
After some hesitation, she stood in front of his car and replied, “Let’s talk right here.”
Logan considered it and agreed. “Millie, I know you don’t need money, but here’s two million dollars.”
He offered her the check without warning. She was shell–shocked. What was this for?
“Please be nice to my sister in the future.” He glanced at Millie.
In other words, he was subtly hinting at Millie–the perceived culprit–to accept the hush money and put an end to the scandal.
She guffawed. He had humiliated her by offering money.
“Did you think you could make me behave with two million dollars?” She lifted the check and shot him at look of disdain. “If I offer you two million dollars to stay out of my sight, how does that make you feel?”
“Millie, why are you so unreasonable? You need to take responsibility for your actions!” He frowned at Millie’s wilfulness.
“The Lowells are being unreasonable!” She tossed the check to Logan.
The Lowells had given up on all their principles for Joanna. They were insulting her when they considered) paying her to shut her up.
Besides, why would she admit to something that wasn’t her doing?
Logan was confused by her sudden anger.
She snapped, “First of all, I don’t need the two million dollars. I might reconsider if you Lowell Group, though. Secondly,” she warned him impassively. “Mr. Lowell, please behave. If you do this to me again, I won’t be nice to you.”

Well, it wasn’t like she was nice to Logan anyway.
He choked in surprise. A thought struck Millie when she was about to leave. She turned and pointed a finger at Logan with a menacing look. “You’d better not force me into exposing the truth behind your sister’s fake qualifications!”
By that time, she would detail everything as revenge instead of keeping the details vague like the letter’s
content.
Why did everyone suspect her? She wondered if she came across as a petty, evil character who would pull underhanded moves.
She didn’t mind being misunderstood by Logan, whom she considered a mere stranger. How could Winston doubt her? Had he learned nothing after all his previous misunderstandings?
Logan stepped forward with a stiff expression. “Millie, do you even..” He wanted to ask if she even had the guts to make good her threat.
“I’m a crazy bitch. You’d better not provoke me,” she said, flashing a devilish smile at him.
She didn’t mind dragging him to hell. She was fearless, and hell didn’t faze her. Had she not married Winston, she would have acted even more brazenly.
Waving at Logan, she walked away with a dangerous smile. He picked up the bank card from the floor with a sigh.
Harriet slowly rolled down the car window. Staring at Millie, she curled her fist and cursed, “What a stubborn bitch!”
“Mom,” Logan suggested. “Millie might not be the culprit.”
“Who else could it be? Only Millie knew the truth behind Joanna’s qualifications!” Harriet grew incensed the more she thought about it.
Slapping her thigh, she stared intensely at Millie as she walked away. She secretly decided to teach Millie a lesson
“Mom, don’t mess with Millie Nothing good will come out of it.” Logan gave her a loaded warning.
For some reason, he didn’t think it was wise to make Millie their enemy, or they might suffer in the future.
