Marcus remained impassive, dismissing Bruce, saying, “You may take your leave

“you cannot banish me thus. As a man, you must not let a petty argument with a

downpour, Millie had sought refuge
beneath a large tree. But even the
tree offered little protection, and she
was drenched through and through.
