It turned out to be a bar!
Millie was taken aback. A bar? What could be so entertaining about it? She had
hoped for something more thrilling, and now she felt that going out for a walk
would have been a better choice.
“Millie, shall we head inside?”
Millie responded with a shake of her head, ready to leave, saying, “l can’t go in. I
don't drink.”
“Don't worry, there are other options besides alcohol,” Mylo reassured, finding it
hard to believe that someone wouldn't enjoy the atmosphere of a bar.
Intrigued, since the bar seemed unusually quiet, Millie relented, saying, “Alright,
I'll stick around for a bit.” The pair found an open table and took their seats.
“What'll you have to drink? I'll fetch it for you,” Mylo offered.
Millie's eyes surveyed the selection at the bar counter before deciding, “Orange
juice will do.”
The thought of the one and a half million weighed heavily on her mind, and the
mere sight of alcohol made her feel uneasy.
With a nod of respect for Millie’s choice, Mylo went to the counter and ordered a
cocktail for himself and an orange juice for her.
Millie's first taste of the orange juice made her notice that this bar had a distinct
ambiance. It was calm, without the blare of loud music. She realized that there
was a star-rated hotel upstairs, which would necessitate a quieter environment.
As they settled in, Millie caught Mylo glancing at her now and then, causing her
to feel somewhat uncomfortable.
Breaking the silence, Mylo suddenly asked, “What are your thoughts on your
husband?”
He found Millie's lack of concern for Marcus puzzling. After all, Marcus was
handsome and wealthy, qualities that usually attracted attention.
Millie was taken aback by his abrupt question. She responded cautiously, “Why
do you want to know?”
“Just a bit of curiosity,” Mylo said. “What's your opinion of him?”

He mentally braced himself to push further.
Despite having won one and a half million the night before, it was nothing
compared to his usual losses.
A betrayal had been etched in his heart. Since she deceived me, don't fault me
for my ill actions.
