Chapter: 349
“Did Leon send the medicine to your grandma? Who told you that?” Marcus
emphasized “Leon”, the words soaked in skepticism.
Millie revealed the source of her knowledge. “The doctor attending to my
grandmother informed me that Mr. Thomas sent the medicine. It's a specialized
medication developed by a foreign agency. Considering the surname, he must be
Leon. He used to practice medicine, so he must be aware of its effectiveness for
my grandma.”
She then expressed with gratitude and a touch of emotion, “It's surprising that he
would extend his help discreetly. He's always been distant and reserved. Despite
not knowing the reason behind his silence, I'll cherish and remember his act of
kindness.”
A peculiar emotion flickered in Marcus’ eyes as he realized Millie mistook Mr.
Thomas mentioned by the doctor for Leon. It became evident that she had
underestimated him, not fully comprehending his potential actions.
Observing Marcus’ morose expression, Millie asked, “Did I err? You appear
disconcerted.”
Marcus chose silence over explanation. Let her believe what she wanted.
“On another note, I plan to stay at the hospital. My grandmother needs me,” Millie
said. Her growing anxiety for her grandmother had strengthened her resolve to
stay by her bedside.
“No, as part of the Thomas family, you abide by its traditions, which include
returning home each day,” Marcus retorted.
The hospital environment teemed with viruses, and the mere idea of Millie
staying there indefinitely filled Marcus with concern.
“You are incredibly heartless!” Millie exclaimed, her emotions pouring forth with a
mix of disappointment and frustration.
In truth, whenever Millie visited the hospital, her grandmother would insist on her
swift departure, urging her not to worry if she was awake. After her marriage,
Grandma consistently emphasized the importance of prioritizing family above all
else.
Her grandmother’s selflessness reaffirmed her belief that she was blessed with
the best grandma in the world.
“Speaking of which, when will your friend return?”
“Soon,” she replied.
Accompanying Millie to the entrance of Skyline, Marcus bid her farewell and
headed towards the company.
The workday wound down, and as Millie was about to hail a cab, an unfamiliar,
rotund woman approached her.

The person asked Millie for assistance with a hint of uncertainty.
The woman presented Millie with a piece of paper, indicating an address: Dury’s

Familiarity washed over Millie; she knew the location well. It was an old, isolated
alley a considerable distance away.
