Chapter 316 Milly’s Cheesy Pickup Lines (Mr Tate’s Sorrow)
But then she thought, it didn’t really matter. Chasing after a guy or a girl should be pretty much the same
100 Ways to Woo a Spouse, Tip #1: Send 9,999 red roses to show your passionate love!‘
Milly nodded to herself. But wasn’t 9,999 a bit too much? If she had them delivered to the hospital room, they’d probably fill the whole place. It wasn’t that she was afraid of being too flashy, but the hospital was full of patients. What if someone had a pollen allergy? That would be a disaster.
Better to hold off on this one for now. She made a mental note to send the roses after both she and George were out of the hospital.
‘100 Ways to Woo a Spouse, Tip #2: Capture their heart with romantic words.
Now this was something she could do!
But what exactly should she say?
George patiently leaned back on his bed, watching Milly. One moment she was deep in thought; nodding, frowning, then pouting. The more he looked at her, the cuter she seemed, and a fond smile played at the corners of his mouth.
His gaze slowly moved to her hands. They no longer showed any signs of injury, looking smooth and delicate. It seemed they were almost fully healed.
Previously, he hadn’t understood why she was suddenly hospitalised. After asking Danny to look into it, he found out her injury was related to Stephanie. Danny also discovered that Stephanie was now trying every way possible to get close to Hannah, who happened to be the daughter of the Lloyds family.
Ha, so Stephanie wasn’t completely dumb. She knew to find herself a new target.
But clever as she thought she was, she was still being outsmarted. She only saw the Lloyds‘ glory and wealth, not realising they were a ruthless bunch. The Lloyds were known to chew people up and spit them out–literally!
George’s lips curled into a cold smile. If Stephanie was so eager to get into the Lloyds‘ world, he’d give her a little push. After all, they did know each other once.
At that moment, Milly, who had been scrolling through her phone, suddenly leaned toward him, eyes sparkling. “Mr. Tate, did you know you owe me a lot of money?”
George raised an eyebrow. “I owe you money?”
If he remembered correctly, wasn’t, it she who owed him money?
Was Milly taking advantage of my memory loss to try and pull a fast one?
Unable to suppress a smile, George tilted his lips up, a hint of indulgence in his eyes. “Oh? And what exactly do I owe you?”
Seeing he had taken the bait, Milly excitedly leaned in closer. “You’ve been living in my heart without paying rent. You’ll never be able to repay it in this lifetime.”

Chapter 316 Milly’s Cheesy Pickup Lines (Mr Tate’s Sorrow)
For a moment, his brain couldn’t process what she meant.
Then Milly excitedly asked, “Guess where my bean is
“The left side
Wrong, it’s on your side?”
She was so close that her faint fragrance wafted into George’s nose, making him restless. He denied the bedsheet tightly, the slight pain in his palm bringing him back to his senses
But Milly didn’t notice his discomfort at all, still immersed in their playful game.
“Mr. Tate, I know three people who like you”
‘Oh?*
“Me, me, and me!
I’m always confident in what I do, but there’s one thing I’m missing. Can you guess what it is
“Hm, what?”
“Silly, I’m missing a kiss from you?”
The clarity in George’s eyes was fading, slowly consumed by overwhelming emotions.
If Milly looked up, she would have been frightened by the intense possessiveness in his gare.
The fire in him was growing stronger…
And yet, the person igniting it seemed completely unaware, continuing to tease him.
George took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the sinful thoughts bubbling up inside him. If he didn’t stop this now, he feared he’d be playing with fire and get burned.
“Alright, that’s enough. Are you planning to recite sweet nothings to me all day?” George’s voice was bourse. his half–lidded eyes full of desire. If she kept this up, he wasn’t sure he could stay composed.
But Milly seemed completely unaware of her impact.
“Uh…” Milly’s voice trailed off. Using corny pickup lines occasionally was fun, but doing in all day woul be 100 much.
“Wait a sec, let me see what else we can do.”
Milly pulled out her phone and continued scrolling through 100 Ways to Woo a Spouse” on Google.

Luckily, she wasn’t afraid of horror movies. When George got scared, she could comfort him and create some intimacy!
Milly smiled sweetly, her voice soft. “Let’s watch a movie together! I have one saved on my phone that I haven’t watched yet.”
Hehe, perfect timing–it was a horror movie.
She liked watching horror movies to stay awake, so she always had a few saved on her phone. They helped her stay alert during long filming sessions.
Now she could use one to snag a boyfriend … nope, to woo a handsome guy!
George didn’t know what she was up to, but seeing her excitement, he couldn’t refuse. He nodded. “Alright.”
Milly’s eyes lit up, and she quickly pulled up the movie.
As soon as the opening credits rolled, George raised an eyebrow. “You sure you want to watch this?” Milly nodded confidently. “Yeah, it has really good ratings and won a lot of awards. It should be good.” George couldn’t argue with that. She was right, the movie was filmed last year and released early this year. The Tate Group had even been one of the investors. He remembered it well because the realistic scenes and terrifying plot had sparked a lot of discussion when it first came out. It even won several awards, making quite a splash.
Was she sure she wasn’t scared?
Watching her engrossed in the movie, she seemed pretty brave, but … Were they really watching the movie together?
He was half–lying in bed, his upper body propped against the headboard. Milly sat on a small stool by the bed, holding the phone at an angle. She was so into the movie that she didn’t notice he couldn’t see much of it.
George’s face darkened. He should’ve picked a hospital with a movie theater!
This was their first movie together, and he couldn’t even touch her. His lover was sitting so far away…
