Chapter 819

“Is that so?”

Leon hadn’t left and appeared to be waiting for Marcus. It was evident that he had something to

discuss.

“Your wife, Millie, is the one I’ve been searching for. Millie is Aisha.”

The atmosphere between them instantly grew tense, with a palpable intensity in their gazes.

Leon had indeed learned that Millie was the individual he had been seeking all along.

“You don’t seem particularly surprised. It seems that you were already aware of it,” Leon commented,

his tone Laced with bitter irony.

The realization that everyone else knew, apart from himself and Millie, struck him as utterly absurd.

“So, what are your intentions?” Marcus, dressed in a black shirt that exuded an air of danger, inquired.

“After scouring the world, I finally found her. What do you think my intentions are?” Leon’s reply carried

an undercurrent of intensity.

“If you plan to take her away, you’ll have to go through me, even if it means crossing my lifeless body.”

In that moment, Marcus’ eyes burned with the intensity of a fierce predator.

Millie was now his wife, and his love for her ran deep. He was resolute in his determination to never let

her go, even if it meant sacrificing his own life.

Following those words, Marcus reopened the car door

“Do not let any harm befall her, or I will not hesitate to take her away. Remember, she is good-hearted

and kind. Millie deserves every ounce of happiness in the world.”

Marcus was taken aback for a moment. What did Leon mean by this? Was he surrendering his pursuit

of Millie, opting instead to silently protect her?

“You will never stand a chance in your life.” With that, Marcus forcefully shut the car door.

He pressed on the gas pedal, the vehicle accelerating swiftly. The world outside the window became a

blur as he sped onward.

Despite his best efforts to conceal it, he had failed.

However, the outcome was unforeseen. Leon had chosen to relinquish his pursuit. Marcus had

expected Leon to go to any lengths to take Millie away.

In hindsight, it was a prudent decision on Leon’s part. Otherwise, Leon would have gained another

adversary.

As Lois emerged from the cemetery, she encountered Millie. Puzzled, she wondered why Millie was

present at Fiona’s gravesite.

“Why did you visit Fiona’s grave? Considering what she did, you must hold a great deal of resentment

towards her. After all, she took the person you loved most away from you.”
