Upon closer inspection, she realized how exquisite it was—it was gold-plated!
She knelt next to Marcus, carefully replacing the rod.
Marcus watched Millie’s cunning moves, a sly grin forming on his face. He liked
this version of her.
Rhea, seething, shot Millie a furious look.
“I'm sorry, Marcus. I couldn't stand her lies about you fishing for her.”
With her arm firmly around Marcus’, Millie countered, “My husband was indeed
fishing for me. I wasn't lying. As his wife, it's his duty to care for me, right?”
“Marcus, is that true? Were you fishing for her?”
“It's too noisy here,” Marcus grumbled coldly.
“Alright, darling, I'll let you fish in peace,” Millie said, letting go of his arm before
dashing away.
Millie retreated to the courtyard, where she retrieved the shears and resumed
working.
Pissed off by the circumstances, Rhea stormed off from the pond with a
glowering scowl. She marched over to Millie again, hissing angrily, “You're such a
good actress, Millie.”
Millie grinned broadly as she raised her head and shrugged her shoulders.
“Thanks. I learned that from you.”
Rhea’s face contorted in rage. She cast one last scornful glance toward Millie
before turning to leave. She still had to find Celeste. After Derek testified in favor
of Millie, utterly turning the tables on her, things had not been the same between
her and the older woman.
“Don’t get on your high horse, Millie. Just wait and see. I'll make you know your
place,” Rhea muttered darkly.
Millie raised her hand and fanned herself after Rhea had gone a good distance
away.
The temperature outside was steadily rising.
“Millie!”
It was Bruce's voice.
