Chapter 93

Since Brandon was planning to remarry in six months and had been provoked that day, he barely bothered to study the agreement carefully. He missed the detail that, along with several specific items, there was a catchall clause for assets originally under Millie Bennett’s name, which included properties from the Bennett family that the Watson Group had absorbed.
She would not give up her father’s legacy, even if nearly all the former Bennett Group employees had moved on. The vague wording meant it would take negotiation if Brandon chose not to hand it over freely.
After being merged into the Watson Group, the department had always been separate from the company’s core. Millie believed that with the right offer, she could get it back.
And if Brandon refused to budge, she was ready to use the contract to fight for her share, determined to win back at least part of what belonged to her.
To make this happen, she would need a significant amount of money. Knowing how sharp Brandon was in business, Millie realized such opportunities might never come again.
That was why staying on Heavenly Melody mattered so much to her. The publicity from the show, her musical background, and the songs she presented here would all increase her value in the industry. New streams of income seemed almost guaranteed if everything went smoothly.
Even if Brandon tried to shut her out, there were still other possibilities to consider, especially since Charles was backing her. Still, Millie wondered if Brandon would really go that far.
Her eyes fell to the floor. She recalled how guarded Brandon became whenever Vivian was involved.
Because she couldn’t predict his next move, Millie made sure she was prepared for anything.
She understood that Charles had already put everything on the line. His two older brothers had long secured their places at Evans Group, making it harder for Charles to gain a foothold because he was the youngest.
Now that Napier Evans, the current patriarch of Evans Group, was growing older and battling poor health, the three Evans brothers were locked in a fierce fight for power within the company.

If Charles managed to succeed alongside her, the two of them might finally tip the scales and help him rise in the Evans Group.
This thought brought Millie’s focus back to Alexia, who was absentmindedly flipping through TV channels.
“Alexia, do you think you can reach out to your friend who streamed the show for you?” she asked.
Alexia kept flipping through, still unimpressed by what she saw. “Sure, what do you need her to do?”
Eyes on the television, Millie answered in a quiet tone, “I’d like to get a copy of the footage she filmed.”
Alexia put down the remote and looked over at Millie, confused. “Why don’t you just ask Charles directly? Isn’t Evans Entertainment one of the sponsors for the show? I’m sure they have access to the live recordings.”
Millie had already tried that—on their way back to the hospital, she had brought it up with Charles. But the moment she mentioned it, he was furious.
“I already went after them for that,” Charles had snapped from the driver’s seat. “I gave them a proper warning and made it clear they crossed the line. They said someone from Brandon’s side sent threats. And if that wasn’t enough, Oakley started stirring things up too. Complete madness.”
