Chapter 1253 Sowing Discord

"If he trusts you, would he keep you in the dark about who Rory is and where he's hidden?" I risked it all.

"But Stella knows. In his eyes, you can't even be compared to a woman. Yet you're sacrificing everything for him. What exactly has Navi given you in return for such loyalty? Is it worth risking your life for him?" I struck his sore spot because I was certain it was what he cared about most. Sure enough, he turned to me abruptly, pointing a finger at me. "How dare you try to sow discord between us?"

His expression changed quickly, making me nervous.

But as I met his gaze head-on, I suddenly calmed down. I feigned anger and retorted, "You're just a puppet, unable to make your own decisions. Yet Anson still thinks about you after all these years.

"If you had been as loyal to him back then as you are to Navi now, you would have risen to prominence in the Huffman family. At the very least, you would have been the top commander, with everyone else beneath you.

My heart raced violently at his words. I was ecstatic, feeling like I was on fire.

"Even if you know where he's hiding Rory, can you get in there? Do you know the secrets about Rory? Stella does."

"That's because he raised Ms. Stella since she was young!" he yelled.

This only fueled my excitement further. So Stella was indeed adopted.

"But you were also raised by Anson. Do you know where you went wrong?" My voice betrayed my agitation.

I knew they understood what I was saying.

Sure enough, one of them spoke up. "Millard, don't waste time with this girl. She's trying to divide us. What's past is past. Do you really think you can turn back time?"

I turned to that person abruptly.
