Chapter: 383
As Marcus removed his tie and unbuttoned two buttons on his shirt, preparing to
take a shower, the sound of a knock on the door interrupted his routine.
Marcus wondered if Millie had forgotten to bring her room card as he considered
the interruption at the door.
He opened the door to find Nancy outside.
In the chilly weather, Nancy wore only a red dress, her legs exposed beneath a
fur coat. With flawless makeup and a pair of red high heels, she made quite the
entrance.
“Mr. Thomas,” Nancy said with a blush as she noticed his unbuttoned neckline.
Nodding in acknowledgment, inviting her inside Marcus turned around, while he
buttoned up his shirt.
Apologizing, Nancy said, “Mr. Thomas, I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused by
my illness the other day. I have recovered and am ready to return to work.”
Curling his lips into a teasing smile, Marcus responded, “Your illness seemed
rather mysterious, beyond the diagnosis of any hospital.”
He detested those who were self-righteous. He believed that Thomas Group
could run perfectly even in their absence.
Only Marcus knew the fact that Nancy's current position stemmed not solely from
her design ability but also from the advantageous platform afforded by Thomas
Group.
Nancy felt taken aback by the intensity of Marcus’ gaze upon her.
She couldn't help but wonder if Marcus had discovered something about her.
Feeling guilty, Nancy admitted, “To be frank, I have no idea why I suddenly felt
weak and fainted that day. The doctors couldn't determine the cause of my illness
either.
Eventually, a friend took me to a temple, and through prayers, I miraculously
recovered. My friend believed I was possessed.”
Having spoken, Nancy observed Marcus carefully, but he had tured his back to
her, hiding his expression from her view.
“I shall take you to meet Mrs. Barton tomorrow. Pay close attention to her
preferences and create the necklace she desires,” Marcus instructed.
“Understood, Mr. Thomas. I'll see to it that the task is accomplished,” Nancy
replied with determination.

Turing around, Marcus gathered a
stack of documents from the table.
“These contain information about
Mrs. Barton. Take a look; they might
prove useful,” he offered, handing the
documents to Nancy. The content is

Nancy approached and reached out to take the documents. “Okay, I will study
them thoroughly,” she assured him.
As she took the file, Nancy pretended it was weighty, deliberately leaning
forward, then fell into Marcus’ arms.

The alluring scent of her perfume
enveloped Marcus, and her hair
gently brushed against his chest.
Nancy purposefully lingered in his
arms, creating a moment that
seemed to stretch out longer than
usual. The content is on

Just as this scene unfolded, Millie
returned from her reading session at
the library, humming contentedly. As
she approached the presidential
suite, she noticed the open door and
was about to say something, but her
words caught in her throat when she
witnessed the sight before her—a
woman with long hair lying in
Marcus’ arms. The content is on
