The man grabbed Millieâs leg when she went up to check on him. He gasped, âSave me!â
She was stunned by the situation.
Back at HK Hotel, Millie folded her arms and stared at the man in bed with mixed feelings.
At six feet tall, the man had a fit body and good looks to go with it. Even when he was unconscious, she could tell that he was hot from his tall nose, thin lips, and thick lashes.
The man suffered from a stab wound in his stomach. He had lost
a lot of blood when she saved him from the side of the road.
Standing beside Millie, Marvin whispered, âWho is he?â
She replied, âNo idea. I picked him up from the streets.â
Marvin teased her, âThatâs bold of you. Arenât you worried that the man is trouble?â
She smirked. âItâs not like Iâm ever afraid of trouble.â
âYeah, right. Nothing scares you in this world, except when Winston ââ He caught himself before the words slipped out.
Nothing would faze Millie except when Winston got into trouble.
She shot him a threatening look, quietly warning him not to run his mouth. Lowering her gaze, she instructed him, âFind out who he is.â Nodding, Marvin quickly rummaged through the unknown manâs

pockets in search of any form of identification while Millie waited by the bed.
Just when Marvin was about to extract the ID card, the man
opened his eyes and grabbed Marvinâs wrist.
Millie and Marvin glanced a im at the same time.
Lips pursed, the man stared at them warily.
âUm, hi?â She cocked her head and greeted the stranger.
He scanned his surroundings before turning back to Millie and
Marvin.
Where was he, and who were they? What happened just now?
Millie explained, âI saved you when you fainted in front of my car. Itâs 5:00 am now. Dawn is about to break.â
She looked out of the window.
When the man moved his lips, she offered him a glass of water. He was definitely a hottie, even though his eyes were looking a little red.
Marvin helped him up from the bed. The man touched his stomach.
Seeing that, she explained, âYouâre injured in the stomach. I dressed your wound and stitched it up. If nothing goes wrong, you can get your stitches removed after a week.â
âWho are you?â the man questioned Millie vigilantly. He openly scrutinized her with his deep, dark eyes.
Yawning, she leaned by the window and folded her arms. âIâm Millie Caldwell of the Caldwell family. This is my assistant, Marvin

Maddock.â
Her confidence stemmed from her good intentions. There was no point keeping anything from him after she had just saved his life.
The manâs lips tightened into line, Was this Millie Caldwell of the Caldwell family? Wouldnât that make Julia Webster her mother?
What a coincidence! The man pondered in surprise.
Marvin reminded him, âItâs time to introduce yourself.â
Millie pinched her ears, ready to listen to what the man had to say.
âIâm Sean Stringer,â he said flatly in a pleasant voice.
She frowned. âThat rings a bell.â
Sean glanced at her, looking pale but still smiling. âOh, does that ring a bell for you?â
She stroked her chin. Sean Stringerâ¦
Sean Stringer?
âWhatâs the name of Bobâs son?â she suddenly asked Marvin.
Sounding curious, he asked, âWhich Bob?â
She kicked him in the leg. âWho else could he be? Iâm talking about Bob Stringer from one of the Four Great Families of Yerwick. He has a son. Whatâs the guyâs name again?â
Smiling, Sean answered Millie, âThat would be Sean Stringer.â
