The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 219

Millie still carried herself with dignity and pride. “I’ll talk to Alex and get to the bottom of this,” she said firmly.

Without another word, she took Raffy’s hand. “Let’s go.”

Danielle let out a cold, dismissive laugh.

She’d only wanted them to move out peacefully—she had more important things to focus on, and no interest in dragging out any drama. But if they insisted on parading around as if they owned the place, she’d just have to be the one to draw the line.

The next morning, Danielle got a call from the real estate agent. The house had a buyer. They wanted to know when she’d be available to sign the paperwork.

She was genuinely surprised. Had Millie and the others already moved out so quickly?

They scheduled the signing for after work that afternoon.

Danielle headed to work at Ninesky as usual.

Meanwhile, Millie was supposed to report in for her first day.

But as the clock ticked by, there was still no sign of her. An hour passed; she was officially late.

Kirsten Delaney’s patience snapped. “Does she think she’s some kind of VIP? Who does she think Ninesky is, her personal playground?”

Gian glanced at his watch. “Let’s start the meeting without her.”

Normally, they’d introduce the new hire before anything else. But Millie’s late arrival felt like a deliberate power play.

Halfway through the meeting, the door swung open.

“Sorry I’m late.” Millie strode in, dressed in a sharp, androgynous suit that made her look both poised and self-assured. She faced the group calmly. “What do you need me to do?”

“Let’s start with an introduction,” someone suggested.

Millie introduced herself, laying out her credentials without a hint of modesty.

When she finished, the room erupted in polite applause.

“So young, and already two doctorates… Impressive,” someone whispered.
