Chapter 280Sally looked bewildered. “I stole your husband?”
Mila nodded, her expression on the verge of tears. “Yes, you stole my husband. When he divorced me, he confessed that he hadalways
loved his childhood sweetheart.”
Sally's eyebrows knitted together in surprise, her face reflecting a mix of disbelief and uncertainty as she glanced toward Oliver.Oliver narrowed his enigmatic eyes, a slight smile tugging at his lips as he adjusted his glasses. “How long do you plan to stay?”“Until | can come to terms with my previous marriage.”
“Very well, make yourself at home,” Oliver declared.
Sally angrily interjected, “Uncle Oliver, have you lost your mind? It’s
clear she has ulterior motives.”
Oliver shot Sally a cold glare, his eyes brimming with hostility.
Sally recoiled, too intimidated to speak further.
Pointing at Phoebe, Oliver asked, “And who is she?”
Mila held Phoebe’s hand and introduced her, stating, “This is my friend, Phoebe Baskins. She’s currently facing some financialdifficulties and doesn’t have a place to stay.”
Phoebe frowned slightly, finding Mila’s choice of words both amusing and perplexing.After the introduction, Mila escorted Phoebe out of the living room.
As they walked past Sally, Mila paused. Standing beside her, facing the opposite direction, Mila spoke softly, “Sally, | lookforward to your

Sally smirked coldly and whispered menacingly, “Suzanne, do you know what it means to be a sheep among wolves? Youcould’ve chosen the easier path, but instead, you’ve ventured into treacherous territory.”
Mila remained composed, offering a faint smile. “Who’s the sheep, and who’s the wolf? Only time will reveal the truth.”With that, Mila gracefully went up the stairs.Sally's expression darkened as she watched Mila’s departing figure, a sense of unease creeping over her.

There was a subtle change in her demeanor. She showed a newfound confidence and composure even in the middle of a crisis.Mila and Phoebe retreated upstairs to their room.
Meanwhile, Sally approached Oliver, her anger evident as she demanded, “Why did you agree to let them move in? Can’t yousee that this isn’t normal?”
Oliver regarded her with a cold smile. “We have a willing prey right in front of us. Shouldn’t we take full advantage of thisopportunity?”
Sally crossed her arms, remarking, “Call me paranoid, but | don’tbelieve she’s as easily manipulated as you think.”Oliver countered, “They’re just two vulnerable women. What trouble could they possibly cause at Hoffis Manor?”novelbin
