The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 307

There were plenty of teams competing this time—more people than ever.

But honestly, aside from Sophia, Millie didn’t spare a thought for anyone else. She couldn’t care less which group Danielle belonged to. In her eyes, the others were just there to be crushed.

Alexander glanced at Danielle, his eyes dark and unreadable, then quickly looked away as if she didn’t exist.

Millie turned to him. “Alex, is Danielle actually here for the competition?”

“Maybe,” he replied, noncommittal.

Millie’s expression barely changed, but a subtle crease appeared on her brow. “This isn’t the kind of event you can just joke around at. Is she here to embarrass herself? If she messes up, she’ll be making a fool of herself on an international stage.” She hesitated, then said, “Do you know any of the judges? Maybe you can talk her out of it. Her participating is just an insult to the competition.”

Liam stroked his chin, nodding in agreement. “Honestly, she’s gotten way too comfortable just coasting by. Now she thinks she can wing it at something like this?”

He let out a short laugh, half mocking, half pitying. “Seems she’s desperate to pad her résumé, trying to make her mark in this field. But no matter how hard she tries, she can’t even come close to Millie’s level. It’s almost sad.”

Millie pressed her lips together. “Alex, it’s not that I have anything against Miss Crawford. I’m not petty, and I’ve never had any beef with her. It’s just… reputation matters. This isn’t something to take lightly.”

Alexander’s gaze grew even darker, his thoughts impossible to read.

Just then, Kirsten passed by with a bottle of water, catching their conversation in full. “If you’re all so amazing and above embarrassment, why don’t you sign up as judges?”

“You—” Millie took a deep breath, fixing Kirsten with a cool look. “If you really care about your friend, you should convince her to quit while she still can. This isn’t Gian’s playground. No one’s going to clear the path for her. When she makes a fool of herself, she’ll have no one to blame.”
