Chapter: 598
Observing the collective relief on their faces, Lois gathered the outcome.
“His surgical skill was once unrivaled. This operation, deemed formidable by
many, he executed flawlessly. His shift from medicine to business has indeed
been a loss to the medical field.”
“Absolutely, his prowess is truly exceptional.”
Amidst the accolades showered upon Leon, Millie’s grandmother was wheeled
out.
Marcus stepped aside respectfully, eyes tracing the aged figure on the gurney,
issuing a directive.
“Ensure she receives the best care and a swift recovery devoid of complications.”
Derek nodded, acknowledging, “Certainly.”
In Marcus’ estimation, Millie’s actions were naive. Just as he was contemplating
negotiations with Leon, she had forfeited her life. It appeared all unscrupulous
women were crafty. Could she be an exception?
Subsequently, they trailed the gumey to Millie’s grandmother's ward. The doctor
offered a concise overview and departed. Marcus later emerged from the room
and settled on a bench in the corridor, an air of desperation engulfing him.
Derek, too, emerged and perused the document clutched in his hand—the
divorce agreement bearing Marcus’ signature.
Derek mourned the swiftness and unpredictability of events, recognizing the
significant role Millie held in Marcus’ heart. The latter's evident distress and
tremor while signing the divorce papers testified to her profound impact.

solace in the company of the person Millie held dear.
In the face of Marcus’ continued silence, Derek gathered his courage and
ventured forth. “When is the funeral for Mrs. Thomas scheduled? Cremation or
burial?”
Despite the autopsy results remaining outstanding, their conviction that it was
Millie had grown resolute.
Abruptly, Marcus shifted his gaze to Derek, who found himself apprehensive and
rueful, sensing he might have been too abrupt. Broaching this topic now only
complicated matters further.
