Chapter: 151
She blinked, wondering when he had come back.
A chill ran down her spine when she remembered how she sent a photo of her
bruised neck and complained to him in an overdramatic tone about her
unfortunate circumstances.
Millie, blushing slightly, nodded to Marcus in greeting.
“You're back.”
“Yeah,” Marcus replied in a grave tone.
He had been standing at the door for quite some time, his hands clenched tightly
at his sides.
Three parts of Millie—her cheek, her neck, and her knee—were bandaged. She
was also wearing a white nightgown, which made her look like a large white bear.
Up until today, he had never owed a woman anything.
When Millie suggested that she wear his clothes so that he could escape, he
fought against the idea with all of his might.
However, Millie listened to no one, even after she married into the Thomas family,
and as usual, she did as she pleased.
Strangely enough, she neither bragged about her heroic act nor used the incident

owner of the restaurant to get that money back. If I were a cop, I'd order its
closure for charging their customers unreasonably.”
Marcus heard Millie mutter something, but he was getting restless and paid her
no attention. He turned around and went to his study.

He recalled how Mylo would pacify
his ex-girlfriends with appropriate
gifts. Then, he grabbed his phone and

“I'd like to buy a bottle of perfume.”
It was already late into the night when Marcus entered the bedroom. As usual,
Millie was already asleep under the covers.

The lights in the room were on. He
was about to turn them off when he
noticed that the woman in the bed
was frowning in her sleep. The
