    <b>Hailing </b>from a family with military roots, the Buts had been under Philip’s guidance since they were kids. Having spent his youth in the military. Anthony disyed confidence, making it seem like he could never miss a target.


    But let’s not get ahead and take things one step at a <b>time</b>.


    It looked like Anthony picked up on her nervousness and tried tofort her, <b>cing </b><b>a </b>hand over his


    heart. “Milly, no wo Arthur always says that if my shooting skills were in the WWII <b>era</b>, nobody could


    touch me. <b>And </b>besides


    “Actually, I was looking for you. I didn’t n to join the military target practice this morning, but I couldn’t stand by when I saw someone giving <b>you </b><b>a </b>hard time, I stepped in because I knew I could handle it.


    Milly remained silent.


    Seeing his sincerity, it’s okay to trust him for now.


    Unfortunately, she had ced her trust in the wrong person


    When they got to the training area, Anthony’s face fell when he saw the Type 95-1 automatic rifle there. Heined<b>, </b>“Why the Type 95-1? I prefer <b>the </b>M416 rifle!”


    Xavier gave him an icy look, his voice sharp. “You think this is a game? M416? In actualbat, you use whatever <b>is </b>avable. Got it?”


    Anthony was visibly upset. “<b>Are </b>you doing this on purpose?”


    It was then clear why <b>Xavier </b>had taken up his challenge, knowing how good a marksman he was. He had been waiting for <b>this </b>moment!


    The Buts had an impressive collection of firearms at their training grounds. Thanks to Philip’s influence, even the less fancy ones were of superior quality.


    Anthony had always used a select number of firearms. He rarely stepped out of hisfort zone and was unfamiliar with the standard Type 95,


    Unfazed by Anthony’s tantrum, with a dangerous look, Xavier challenged him, ‘Scared? If so, try running twenty kilometres with a weight.”


    This spurred Anthony on. “Who’s scared? I’ve never backed down from a challenge since I was a kid! The Type 95-1 automatic rifle is nothing. I’ll show you what real marksmanship is.”


    His preparation of the gun–loading, working the bolt, flicking off the safety–was smooth and practiced, showing off his expertise.


    Anthony looked even more striking in his military uniform, embodying the esteemed But lineage with his poised and self–assured actions, which also had a rxed appeal.


    A group of girls watching couldn’t contain <b>their </b>excitement.

    “I had him all wrong before; he’s Anthony But from the renowned But. How could he not carry himself with confidence!”


    “Stephanic, you’re so lucky. You have the good–looking brother at home–not just him but five more, all so attentive to you.”


    “Stephanie, how I envy you.”


    Not too long ago, Stephanie, who had been crying, now stood soaking up theirpliments and adoration <b>with </b>a look of scorn.


    Herments were oozing with arrogance. “It’s no big deal. Sometimes, they like to have their littlepetitive moments; I’m pretty used to it.”


    There came another burst of jealousy and admiration from the crowd.


    Just as Stephanie was about to enjoy the limelight, a curious voice cropped up.


    “Stephanie, I heard Milly also goes by But. Is she rted to you? I’ve noticed Anthony paying her quite a bit of attention.”


    All eyes suddenly shifted to Stephanie, and Anthony paused, looking for her answer.


    Stephanie’s face tensed up.


    Out of everything, why did this have to be brought up?


    Milly, who was not too far away, heard the question and crossed her arms calmly, waiting to listen to what Stephanie would say.


    She was curious if Stephanie, always known for being well–spoken, could wiggle her way out of this one.


    Stephanie locked eyes with Milly, feeling her anger bubble up. Even though she tried to calm herself with a deep breath, a shade of irritation was still evident on her face.


    “Anthony’s had a pretty rxing life, being pampered by the Buts. He’s genuinely a good soul. However, sometimes his real feelings for someone can create drama among us.”


    As Stephanie finished talking, the crowd went silent, their eyes now on Milly, filled with doubt.


    Milly kept quiet.


    Stephanie was quick with her words.


    She cleverly dodged confirming any direct ties to the Buts, leaving the question hanging. This kept the crowd guessing.


    And what could they guess from this?


    From Stephanie’s hint, they’d likely think Milly was trying to climb her way up by charming Anthony.


    Suddenly, the way they looked at Milly changed.


    “<b>I </b>always thought she was clever and had charm, but now we’re seeing her true nature.”

    “Isn’t she an actress? Probably pulled some strings tond that gig.”


    “It’s known how ruthless the entertainment scene can be. She must have some strong backing.”


    “We should be wary of her. Who knows <b>what </b>she’s hiding”


    And once again, Milly was left dumbfounded.


    If you’re going to challenge Stephanie, do it openly. No need for shady strategies.

    Stephanie added, “We shouldn’t badmouth Milly. Despite it all, she has a good heart. Let’s aim for peace and unity.”


    The irony in Stephanie’s words made Milly roll her eyes.
