Millie took a sip of juice, and spoke honestly. “Yes, he’s been working late quite a
bit lately.”
Grace looked thoughtful. She knew Marcus was engrossed in his work, but did
he truly need to work overtime every single day?
Wearing a serious expression, Grace warned, “Millie, you should keep a closer
eye on your husband. Has he been acting strangely Lately?
Why does he need to work late all the time?”
Millie understood Grace's underlying concern. Many men used overtime as an
excuse to enjoy themselves elsewhere. However, Millie had faith in Marcus. Her
trust in him was unshaken.
“I understand what you're saying, but I don't believe Marcus is that type of man.
He truly is away on business,” Millie asserted.
Seeing the conviction in Millie’s eyes, Grace couldn't help but feel that perhaps
she had been a little too concerned.
“Well, as long as you trust him,” she finally conceded.

After bidding Grace farewell, Millie hailed a taxi and headed home.
It was already eleven o'clock, and the villa stood in silence.
Marcus hadn't returned yet.
As she slept, Millie was stirred by a noise. Turning on the bedside lamp, she
spotted Marcus as he was undressing.
Millie rubbed her eyes, questioning, “Honey, why are you coming back so late?”
Marcus set his coat down and approached, gently caressing her forehead.
“I'm sorry. Things took a little longer today,” he explained.
“Okay, go wash up, and then come to bed,” Millie instructed, her voice soft.
After slipping into his night robe, Marcus lay down beside Millie.
She snuggled into his arms, but exhaustion soon overtook Marcus, and he fell
into a deep sleep.
Millie, however, found herself wide awake, nestled in Marcus’ arms.
