Chapter 56 Misjudging Milly
Jordan entered the room, tossed his briefcase onto the sofa, and surveyed the chaotic living room. He was furious. “What are you all staring at? Come over and clean up this mess.”

“Both of you, come over here and stand properly. Now, what exactly happened? Why on earth were you fighting?” Jordan loosened his tie, his face dark
Matthew snorted coldly and remained silent.
On the other hand, Anthony didn’t hold back. He began complaining. “Jordan, you don’t know how outrageous Matthew is. He threw Milly’s things out an
Anthony’s shamelessness almost amused Matthew, “Stop exaggerating. I never said anything like that.”
Anthony began rolling up his sleeves, and it looked like he was about to explode again. “Do you dare say you didn’t claim you only have Stephanie as a
“Yes, but…” Matthew tried to explain, only to realise that those words did seem to have come from him.
But he didn’t mean anything with those words at the time. How did they get twisted when they came out of Anthony’s mouth?
It was hard to pinpoint what was wrong, but something just felt off.
Seeing Matthew’s hesitant response, Anthony seized the opportunity and continued to add fuel to the fire. Jordan, he admitted it. Hurry up and teach him
Matthew became anxious. “I didn’t do that. It was Milly who bullied Stephanie first. I didn’t really mean. not to recognise her. I just wanted to give her a little lesson.”
“You still dare to deny it!”
Seeing that the tension between the two was about to escalate again, Jordan, piecing together the situation from their words, sternly reprimanded, “That’s enough!”
Upon seeing Jordan angry, the two fell silent immediately.
Jordan’s face darkened as he looked at the items in the box that had been thrown out. Looking at Matthew, he took a deep breath. He spoke with an unquestionable and firm tone, “Matthew, come over and apologise to Milly!”
Matthew widened his eyes, momentarily taken aback. “Jordan, why should I? She bullied Stephanie!*
Jordan squinted as he glanced at Stephanie, her eyes red and teary, his gaze deep and impenetrable.
Whether it was because his gaze was too intimidating or because he sensed her inner thoughts, Stephanie felt a sense of panic and instinctively shrunk
Jordan averted his gaze and looked at Matthew, speaking in a deep voice, “Did you see her being bullied?”

Although not much younger than Jordan, Matthew had been pursuing the arts since childhood. He associated with a more limited circle of people, and his nature was relatively pure. He tended to be straightforward and single–minded.
Jordan squinted and said sternly. “Since you didn’t see it, why would you unjustly accuse Milly? Matthew, have your years of studying art cooled the bloo
Matthew felt ashamed by Jordan’s words but couldn’t let it go. “But Stephanie is crying so sadly.”
Stephanie was taken aback, and as she saw Jordan’s intimidating gaze focusing on her again, she hurriedly waved her hands. “No, it’s not that. Matthew
Matthew’s expression changed, and he looked at Stephanie. “Didn’t you ….
Wait a minute. Stephanie never mentioned that Milly bullied her. She cried in her arms, and he assumed. she had been wronged here.
So, was he misjudging Milly?
Jordan looked at him sternly. “Apologise to Milly.”
Matthew pursed his lips, still somewhat unwilling in his heart. I’m

Does this mean that Jordan will treat me better and better in the future?

Forget it! She shouldn’t be too petty in life.
She was about to go upstairs when suddenly, the silk pouch in her hand was snatched away by a large hand.
