With my struggles, my stomach began to hurt, and I panicked even more.

Maybe seeing me like that, and remembering we had once been husband and wife, Milo frowned. "A life is at stake, whether she's acting or not. Get her out first. I'll make her apologize to you later."

"Milo, have you forgotten what I told you the other day? She refused the Thompson Family project, which was worth over ten billion, and she rejected it outright."

Dakota pulled out her phone. "This time I didn't just record audio, I filmed it too. Before, I didn't dare show you, afraid it would affect your relationship. But now you have to see this."

Milo looked at the video, his expression turning dark and frightening.

"Milo, I'm afraid she's not after me at all; she's after you. She can swim; she's just waiting for you to come so she can drown you."

Dakota looked toward me. "Her heart hasn't been with you for a long time. Think about it, why would the young master of the Thompson family give our company that ten-billion-dollar project? Wasn't it to make up for stealing Alia from you?"
