“Calm down. It's not what you think. I'm sorry I lied to you. I admit that I really
didn’t go on a business trip, but I wasn't with Rhea. I was running a high fever, so
I was hospitalized and given an infusion. I didn't tell you about it because I didn’t
want to worry you.”
He might really lose Millie if he kept hiding the truth from her.
Millie examined Marcus from head to toe, and her eyes watered a little because
the man looked too healthy for someone who had just recovered from a high
fever.
“You're still lying to me.”
It came as a complete surprise to Marcus that Millie still did not believe him.
His heart sank when he saw the disappointment in her eyes. However, he had to
convince her that he was telling the truth this time. God knew how much he
missed her while he was hospitalized.
As it turned out, loving someone meant constantly craving their company. Marcus
grabbed Millie's hand.
“Let's go to the hospital.”
“No, I'm not sick.” She assumed he thought she was losing her mind.
“We won't be seeing a doctor, but I need to prove to you that I was in there for
the last few days. The doctors and nurses can testify for me.”
Millie's beautiful features flickered with astonishment before she felt something
bumpy at the back of Marcus’ hand.
She looked down on it. His hand had a black and purple bruise on the back of it.
It seemed that he was really given an infusion.
“[“m not lying to you this time, Millie. I was really in the hospital getting an
infusion. The bed there was very cold. I missed you so much, so I called you, but
you didn’t even want to hear my voice.”
Millie kept her head down. Marcus sounded sincere. The bruise on his hand's
back was evidence of that.
“Rhea did come to see me in the hospital, but I didn’t want to see her. I chased
her away every time she came. Don't worry. We'll confront her about whatever
she did.”
For a couple of minutes, nobody said a word.
Marcus declaring that he would confront Rhea only indicated that his conscience
was clear.

The silence in the dining room was deafening as the two wordlessly ate their
