essay .
According to Bellfield's former girlfriend, she asked him where he was that day and replied: "What, do you think I've done Milly?" Earlier Miss Mills said that her former boyfriend was out of reach on the day of Milly’s

Being asked by prosecutor Brian Altman QC if they talked about the disappearance of the 13-year-old schoolgirl, Miss Mills, 33, said: "Yes we did, because it was so local, as anyone would."
The joke was uttered by the alleged killer while Ms Mills was decorating and asking him about the day he’d gone off for she suspected him of betraying her with another woman. She said nothing about the schoolgirl when he said: "Oh, why do you keep going on? What, do you think I've done Milly? "
The girl went missing on Thursday after leaving Walton-on-Thames station in Surrey and her remains were found 25 miles away six months later.
Miss Mills, 33, said: "I was so used to him making horrible remarks and jokes about things. I just thought, it's disgusting, not even funny."
