Chapter 251

What? Millie heard Bruce’s words and felt her face burning with embarrassment.

Bruce was so naive to think that she and Marcus were engaged in some intimate act. His imagination was running wild.

Millie was so furious that she bit her lower lip.

Seeing Millie's flustered expression, Marcus found the situation amusing. He leaned back in his chair, an eyebrow cocked in

amusement.

“What level of intensity are you referring to?”

Millie was in disbelief. She glared at Marcus, who not only failed to correct the misunderstanding but was adding fuel to the fire.

Embarrassed and misunderstood, Millie wished she could find a hole to crawl into.

“That’s enough. It’s one in the morning, and you're still at it. You'll exhaust yourself. I’ll send over some deer antler velvet

tomorrow for your nourishment.

Also, try to give us the eldest baby of the family as soon as possible.”

Deer antler velvet, the eldest son... Millie felt her face heat up with embarrassment.

She wanted to snatch the phone and give the deluded man at the other end a piece of her mind.

“Are you done?” Marcus loosened his tie, clearly growing impatient.

“[ have some things to share. We'll chat later. You go ahead with your wife. | won't interrupt anymore.”

The line went dead.

Across the line, Bruce hung up, amused by the whole conversation.

Marcus leaned forward to place the phone back on the table.

“You screamed just now to get him to misunderstand, didn’t you?” He tumed towards her, lifting her chin with his fingers.

What!

Millie’s mouth fell open. Did he mean she had screamed deliberately for Bruce to misunderstand?

The human mind appeared remarkably peculiar.

She retorted, “You pinched me. | couldn’t help but cry out. With your strength, | wouldn’t be surprised if you managed to lift me off

the ground by my shoulder.”

“Why do you always have an answer ready? What are your teeth made of?” he said, sceptical of her explanation.
