“I'm pressed for time. I'm not here to witness your marital display. How do you
intend to prove your claims?”
Given their turbulent history, the air between Marcus and Leon grew tense and
awkward.
Millie raised an eyebrow, questioning Leon’s intentions. Recalling Marcus’
assurance from the previous night about Fiona no longer posing a threat after
tomorrow, her suspicions turned toward Fiona.
An enigmatic smile played on Marcus’ lips as he glanced at the time.
“Now, the corroborating witnesses have arrived.”
As Marcus concluded his statement, the distinct sounds of hurried footsteps and
the anxious voice of Fiona echoed from behind Leon.
“Giovanni, don't push your luck. My patience is wearing thin.”
Leon's grip on the teacup tightened subtly. Fiona’s voice indicated her proximity;
she was seated in the adjacent private area, with only a carved partition
separating them.
Leon cast a chilly, stern look at Marcus, who appeared unruffled.
Another male voice chimed in from behind, “I've missed you. Don't be angry.”
Fiona’s disdainful laughter followed. “Missed me? Don't think I'm unaware of your
motives. You're after money, aren't you?”
Fiona’s guard remained high.
“And where did you get that wound on your face?”
Anticipating Fiona's question, Giovanni had formulated an answer.
“Don't mention it. Last night, 1 was ambushed by some thugs while walking in the
dark.”
Fiona found relief in his response, fearing Giovanni's failure to harm Millie might
have led to retaliation.
“Are you truly going to eliminate Millie tonight?”
