The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 481

Her question wasn’t just curiosity—it was a test.

Alexander Davidson’s lips curled ever so slightly as he heard her words. He turned to glance at her, a look that lingered, heavy with unspoken meaning.

A chill ran down Millie Fletcher’s spine. His gaze felt like it could cut straight through her, stripping her soul bare.

“Millie, what are you so worried about?”

His tone was calm, almost indifferent, but it sent chaos through her heart. Her hand clenched tight, betraying the storm inside.

She did have her own selfish motives.

With things as they stood, if he lost his influence, everything could unravel in an instant. Nothing would be as smooth as it was now.

But—

Millie forced herself to pause. She should trust him—trust that he had a plan, that every move he made was for a reason.

“I just don’t want you to lose too much because of me,” she said quietly. “You’ve worked hard for everything you have now. It wouldn’t be fair for me to ask you to give it up.”

“I can keep my distance from Raffy—he can stay with the Davidson family. I don’t need a title. I just want everyone to be alright.”

“And like you said… as long as there’s still hope, there will always be a way back. Someday, when I’ve found my footing again, I’ll let Raffy choose for himself.”

Millie had her own ambitions, her own pride.

She didn’t believe she was any less than anyone else—just less fortunate. There would be other chances for her in the future.

Alexander’s expression remained unchanged as he listened.

“You’re overthinking things,” he replied, his voice steady and unhurried.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a voice rang out from the stage.

“Thank you, Chief Engineer Crawford. Your explanation of the new policy was very clear. Next, let’s welcome President Davidson to say a few words.”

With that announcement, Alexander rose, buttoned his suit jacket, and strode confidently toward the stage.

Millie stared in open surprise, watching him go. She hadn’t even known Alexander was now the head of the business association.

Liam, who’d overheard their exchange, whispered a quick analysis.

“That must be the surprise he prepared for you. He may have stepped back from the Davidson Group, but his influence hasn’t faded.”
