Chapter: 486
Seating himself beside Millie, Marcus prompted a surprised stare from her.
Gianna turned her head, subtly curling her lips as a trace of scorn flashed in her
eyes toward Millie.
It was she who contacted Marcus’ secretary, inviting him to lunch. She'd been
uncertain he'd agree at first.
However, it seemed her words carried more weight than Millie's.
Just then, Mia descended the stairs.
Donned in a white dress, her long hair cascading over her shoulders, she
entered the living room briskly, emanating sophistication and elegance.
Her swift glance at Millie visibly shifted into astonishment when her eyes fell upon
Marcus.
The man was impeccable, surpassing his pictures. Mia's fingers curled into a
covert fist, the envy for Millie's fortune palpable.
Even so, Mia was wearing a fake smile.
“Hi,” she said gently as soon as she sat down.
“Millie, how's life treating you as part of the Thomas family? I've had some time to
think recently. I'm not upset that you ended up marrying Mr. Thomas in place of
me. As long as you're happy with him, I'll offer my blessings. You're my sister,
after all.”
Millie retorted with a sneer, “Such magnanimity, willing to give away your
husband.”
Mia's irritation was evident. Still, she responded with a smile, “Of course, if you
have an interest in him, I can relinquish him to you. Considering you lost your
mother early and had a tough upbringing, I want you to have a good life, even if it
means sacrificing my own happiness. But you must strive to improve as well.
Shed your old vices like idleness and theft.”
While Mia’s words seemed concerned, they belittled Millie. Millie’s mind raced,
formulating her retort.
With her chin raised, Millie sarcastically uttered, “On my wedding night, I found
you asleep with a book. A true scholar you are. I truly admire your dedication.”
“Naturally, learning is an ongoing journey. You should read more as well.”

Millie nodded and continued, “Indeed,
at that moment, I decided to emulate
you. I went to read that book and
even planned to buy the same one.
However, upon inspection, I
discovered its content.” The content

Deliberately pausing, Millie added a
touch of mystery. “It contained news
about the president of the Thomas
Group, portraying him as
wheelchair-bound, unfit to be a man.
The book warned women against
marrying him, predicting a miserable
life.” The content is on

“That's when I realized you're also

Mia was left speechless.
A heavy tension rose in the air after Millie finished her statement.
Marcus looked furious, leveling a stern and frightening gaze at Mia.
