Only Bruce held that ability. She recalled Marcus urging her to keep her distance

Marcus extended his hand and gently brushed her hair.
“Don't get too close to him. For now, there's nothing for you to worry about.”

Harlan reined in his frustration.
“When I say no, it's a firm no.”

Millie turned her gaze away, feeling her own embarrassment. She'd mistakenly
assumed Mavis was Marcus’ lover.
“It's alright. Everything has been made clear now.”
