Millie explained in a hushed tone, “He's Leon Thomas, Marcus’ older cousin.”
Grace couldn't help but express her admiration.
“Wow, the Thomases really are a stunning bunch. And who's the lady?”
“Lois Rayne, the daughter of the Rayne family, and his fiancée.”
With the introductions made, Millie was ready to continue browsing with Grace.
However, their conversation caught Leon's attention, prompting him to tum his
gaze their way.
His expression darkened upon spotting Millie, and an unfriendly air emanated
from him.
Millie couldn't help but feel a touch of unease at his hostility.

picking up on the chilly reception.
“Let's explore elsewhere,” Millie suggested, intending to exit and clarify matters
with Grace.

“Millie, are you shopping here with your friend?”
With a smile, Millie responded, “We're just browsing.” Lois appeared genuinely
pleased.
Millie genuinely felt happiness for the couple in her heart.
Noticing Leon's impatience-laden gaze fixed on her, Millie elaborated further,

friendly. Why? Aren't you family?”

Grace nodded in understanding.

have more intricate dynamics. They
might even vie against each other for
wealth. I had too much water. I need
to use the restroom.” The content is
