Chapter 55

• Inside the grand hall of the Miller Mansion, a tense silence hung in the air. The maids had discreetly cleaned away the shattered glass, leaving no trace of the earlier chaos, and quietly retreated to avoid the looming storm. On the large couches, the family members sat with varying expressions—anger, frustration, and, for some, a simmering sense of betrayal.
• As Lily entered the hall, she felt a thrill course through her veins. Her sharp eyes swept over the room, landing on each disgruntled face. Their reddened expressions were priceless, and a sly smirk tugged at her lips. Looks like my little “gift” was well received.
• Rose was the first to notice her presence. Her eyes narrowed as she took in Lily’s calm demeanor and the infuriating smile playing on her lips. Rage and jealousy burned in her chest, but she kept her tone mocking.
