Chapter 858:
Brandon reached over with a shaking hand and made a call. Within moments, his bodyguard appeared in the doorway, concern written across his professional features.
“Yes, Mr. Watson? What do you need p>
“Get the car ready. I need to go to the hospital where Vivian is being tested,” Brandon said through gritted teeth, fighting another wave of pain.
“Right away, sir,” the bodyguard replied immediately, already reaching for his phone to make the arrangements.
Back at Elliott Mansion, beside the peaceful koi pond, Millie looked at Alexia with a gentle but firm smile.
“He’s completely delusional if he thinks I’d ever go back to him. Even considering it would be a slap in the face to Myron.” She paused, her voice growing stronger. “But honestly? My answer has nothing to do with Myron being in my life. I just don’t want Brandon anymore—period. Even if I were single, I still wouldn’t want him p>
This was exactly the kind of honest conversation she could only have with Alexia. They were in their own private bubble here, away from everyone else.
She and Alexia had been best friends since they were little girls, sharing the kind of deep bond that only came from growing up together through everything life could throw at them.

Alexia studied her friend’s face carefully, searching for any hint of doubt or pretense. “But do you actually like him? Are you in love with him? And Millie—don’t you dare lie to me about this,” she pressed, her voice insistent.

If Millie said no, Alexia was already prepared to take action. She would pack up both Millie and Ari and get them out of here, away from all these complicated men and their messy problems.
The Hussain family might not have the same massive influence as the Watson, Elliott, or Evans families, but they had more than enough power and resources to make it happen.
She could take them both abroad, where they could live peacefully, far from all this drama and heartbreak.
This wasn’t about Giffard or anyone else—this came purely from her deep love and concern for Millie’s well-being.
They were sisters in everything but blood, having shared every important moment of their lives together.
“I don’t want some vague, safe answer about how nice he is to you and Ari,” Alexia pressed, her tone gentle but insistent. “I want the truth—the real, honest-to-God truth about what’s in your heart. More than anything, I want to know that you’re genuinely happy p>
