Get Spoiled after Travelling into A Novel

Chapter 31 Crestwood High's Bold Move Milly furrowed her brow with a hint of disdain, "Could you please stop referring toas boss?" Being pursued by a man who was taller and stronger than her, it felt uncomfortable no matter how she looked at it, However, William did not share the ssentiment. He persisted, "Once a boss, always a boss. Until I grasp your core technology, my stance will not change." Milly was speechless.

At that moment, she felt like she was talking to a wall.

Considering the Tates' esteemed status, wouldn't they be willing to invest smoney in getting their second son treated if he was this foolish? It was embarrassing to be seen with him.

William was oblivious to her thoughts. He glanced behind her, noticed no one there, then inquired curiously, "Boss, is your family not attending the swearing ceremony today?" Milly walked over to the table, set down her bag, and nodded. "Yes, my parents are overseas, and my brother is on a business trip. No one will be joining us." Wait a minute, William was the second son of the Tates. Could it be that the one attending the swearing ceremony this tis Milly stood up abruptly, almost colliding with William, who was about to sit down. He was startled and asked, "Boss, what's the matter with you?" She stared at him intently and asked, "Who from your family is coming to meet you?" Her piercing gaze made William feel a chill run down his spine. He stuttered, "There's no one. My grandpa finds it bothersome, and my brother is too occupied." The cold sweat instantly ceased.

Milly finally felt a sense of relief.

Thank goodness! She was genuinely worried a moment ago. She had just suggested to George that they should part ways. It would be incredibly awkward if they crossed paths again today.

She took a deep breath and settled back into her seat, saying, "That's a relief." "That's a relief?" William suddenly raised his voice, with a tinge of heartache and indignation, "Boss, are you aware of Crestwood High's bold move?" Milly frowned and asked, "Bold move? What do you mean?" "Boss, you may not have noticed on your way here. Crestwood High's annual swearing ceremony is akin to a pre-exam pep rally. It's not just about taking an oath. They also bring in so-called experts to deliver emotional and stirring speeches. The students have to embrace their parents. If no one embraces them, the principal will invite them to step in and hug those foolish experts. How awkward can it get?" Milly paused in her actions of holding the book.

Chapter 31 Crestwood High's Bold Move +5 Fearis She had never attended high school in her previous life, so she assumed that the high school swearing: ceremony was solely about taking an oath and getting motivated. She never anticipated there would be emotional moments as well.

So, if their parents didn't show up, did that mean they would all have to go on stage and line up to embrace the experts? Experts holding microphones, passionately recounting tear-jerking stories. They cto the stage with. runny noses and tears and lined up to hug. Below, thousands of parents and students watched and applauded, creating a spine-chilling spectacle.

"So, do we have to go on stage?" Milly asked.

William pursed his lips and replied. "There is a solution. We can go up together, pretend to be each other's parents, embrace for warmth, and get through this." Milly stared at him coldly, causing William to retract his suggestion quickly. “I... I was joking. If you're not comfortable with it, just forget it." The boss is truly frightening! Milly's eyes darkened. In her previous life, although she had climbed to a certain position in the entertainment industry, only she knew the hardships. Despite her outward appearance of radiance, she was actually quite lonely, with no one to lean on. Even at the pinnacle of the entertainment industry, she was vulnerable to being undermined by others, not to mention the widespread scandals and power struggles within that circle.

Many bosses and directors would use various pretexts to intimidate her, coercing her into compliance, even resorting to drugging her on numerous occasions.

This resulted in her growing aversion towards men. Initially, just conversing with a man would make her feel nauseous, and she would even experience uncontrollable urges to hit others.

Later, she sought help from several psychologists, which enabled her to engage in normal social interactions. However, any slightly intimate contact with a man would still trigger a physical reaction in her. If she were required to embrace unfamiliar male experts on stage, she might truly lose control at that moment.

Reflecting on this, she concluded that rather than embracing unfamiliar experts, it would be preferable to choose the familiar William.

At least, if she were to lose control, it would be easier to confront him than to deal with the experts. "Alright, then..." "Who said your guardian didn't show up?" a cold voice interrupted Milly's words.

They were taken aback, gazing up to see a slender and handsyoung man silhouetted against the light in front of their desks.

Milly stood frozen, momentarily unable to react. "What do you mean?" she inquired.

Anthony pulled a chair and settled in front of her desk. "Is it difficult to understand? I am your sixth Chapter 31 Crestwood High's Bold Move
