Chapter 957

Derek cast a glance at the subdued young man and relayed the information.

“We apprehended the individual responsible for the recent cyber attack on the company. Our

investigation uncovered his affiliations, and it appears that he is linked to…”

As Millie emerged from the kitchen, she encountered Marcus engrossed in a phone conversation, his

expression sour.

In response to her voice, Marcus’ demeanor softened, his gaze alighting upon Millie within the dining

area.

“I’m already home. Kaya unexpectedly surfaced in my car tonight. She shouldn’t have been privy to my

whereabouts. Investigate this matter.”

Though Millie had intended to retire for the night, her hunger compelled her to craft a pot of porridge in

the kitchen.

Upon Marcus’ arrival in the dining area, Millie had already embarked on her meal.

Observing the delectable porridge and Millie herself, Marcus was genuinely impressed. She had

managed to elevate such a simple dish to such heights.

“Aren’t you making mine?” Marcus quirked an eyebrow.

Millie raised her gaze to meet his abdomen. “Haven’t you had enough dining out?”

An undercurrent of resentment tinged Millie’s words.

Aware that Millie’s discomfort stemmed from Kaya’s presence, Marcus knew he had erred.

This encounter elucidated the intensity of a woman’s jealousy.

“I’m not satisfied yet. I crave a bit of porridge.” Marcus seated himself, helping himself to a bowl without

heeding Millie’s disgruntled expression.

Millie responded with an eye roll.

As their dinner drew to a close and they stood ready to ascend the stairs, a resonant chime of the

doorbell sounded, interrupting their tranquil evening.

Without hesitation, Marcus moved towards the door’s beckoning call, and there, standing on the

threshold, was Nancy, her lips curled in a welcoming smile.

“Mr. Thomas, I apologize for intruding at this late hour,” Nancy began, her eyes wandering briefly

before landing on Millie, who lingered just behind Marcus.

Within Nancy’s gaze, a hint of inscrutable emotion seemed to flicker, and Millie, ever astute, caught that

fleeting glimpse.

“At this hour, what brings you?” Millie inquired, her voice tinged with curiosity.

Instinctively, Marcus’ brow furrowed slightly, and his thoughts were momentarily disrupted.

From her bag, Nancy produced a design draft with a sense of urgency.

“Truth be told, I had just wrapped up an extended bout of work. There was no time to falter in crafting

the jewelry for the impending union of the Fairclough and Lawrence families. Today, I sketched out the

preliminary design quickly. Mr. Thomas, would it be possible to engage in a conversation indoors?”
