The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 387

Millie buried her face in her hands.

Taking a deep breath, she crouched down, her mind a tangled, chaotic mess.

Right now, Raffy's education was falling behind. The company's projects existed, but all of them seemed stuck—neither moving forward nor dropping off. Nothing could progress past a certain point. They desperately needed to deliver on at least one project to get some cash flowing again.

But with just one critical step missing, every project was at a standstill.

Intellectech was on the edge of collapse. AetherX Dynamics was only just getting started, with no stable income yet.

Leanne watched Millie’s defeated posture, her gaze sharpening as she looked down at her daughter. “What’s going on with you?”

“Alex isn’t willing to help? You two grew up together. If he won’t help, I’ll go talk to Bianca.”

She and Bianca were close friends—Bianca would never turn a blind eye.

Millie looked up. “Mom, you can’t rely on a man forever. If you have the ability, you should make your own way.”

“Unless I hit absolute rock bottom, I’m not letting Alex see me like this.”

As if she was helpless and incompetent in every way.

She didn’t want to lean on a man. She wanted to be Alexander’s safe harbor, not his burden.

“Even if Alex says he’ll catch me if I fall,” Millie said, meeting Leanne’s eyes, “I can’t expect him to solve every problem. If I always run to him, I’ll just end up looking incompetent in his eyes.”

Leanne was at a loss for words.

“If you were really that capable, would Intellectech need to bail you out with so much money?”

Millie’s expression showed her surprise. She couldn’t understand why they were fighting each other at a time like this.

“Do you even hear yourself? If it weren’t for me, would Alex have invested a hundred million for Intellectech? Without that money, how could you possibly help me? We’re family—don’t burn your bridges like this.”

“If you really knew what you were doing, if you had the skills,” Leanne pressed on, her voice heavy, “would we be in this mess now? If your business sense keeps missing the mark, you ought to hire a professional manager to run things.”

Their family had fought hard for their current status. Everything hinged on this moment.
