The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 519

Millie pulled out a chair and sat down with the same air of superiority she always carried, her expression unshakably arrogant.

“But it’s too late now. Alex is going to marry me—whatever chance you thought you had is gone.”

Danielle’s face remained unreadable, her voice cool and direct.

“You were behind Niki’s abduction.”

She locked eyes with Millie. “My daughter has no interest in fighting Rafferty Davidson for the Davidson estate. You don’t need to see her as your mortal enemy. The Davidsons are yours—I’m not here to take anything from you.”

Millie’s composure faltered for just a second, her face freezing.

“I have no idea what you’re talking about. And as for ‘taking’ the Davidsons—do you really think you could win if you tried? You never have. You never will.”

Her lips curled into a cold, triumphant smile. Alexander had only ever loved her. That made her the victor—the one who would come out on top.

Danielle’s tone was steady. “If you truly believed that, you wouldn’t have done something so desperate.”

“If you were really so sure you belonged in the Davidson family, you wouldn’t see me and my daughter as threats.”

A flicker of something ugly passed over Millie’s face, as if Danielle had struck a nerve. She was silent for a few moments before responding.

“And what makes you so sure it was me? The police haven’t found anything. My son was kidnapped too, remember?”

“Whoever took my child—once Alex finds out, I’ll make them pay. If you’re here about the kidnapping, you’re wasting your time. It wasn’t me.”

Millie’s face was smooth, almost blank—no hint of guilt.

Danielle’s expression never changed, her eyes cold and unreadable, like the surface of a frozen lake.

“You won’t admit it. Fine.” Danielle rose from her chair. “But if my daughter is threatened again, I’ll hold you personally responsible.”

“AetherX Dynamics has spun off, yes. But what about Intellectech’s investment? The Fletcher family business—do you want it or not?”

Just standing there, Danielle seemed to chill the air around her, as if she were surrounded by an invisible shield.

Millie’s gaze darkened.

Was Danielle really in a position to threaten her now?

“You think you’re something special? The country’s hardly short of scientists like you.” Millie’s tone was icy. “Power is all that matters. You have no leverage—how could you possibly threaten me?”

What did it matter if she was a scientist? So what if she’d made a few academic breakthroughs? Millie told herself she could become an acclaimed researcher too, if she felt like it—it was only a matter of time.

But Danielle still didn’t understand what real power meant.
