Chapter 343

Chapter: 343

Unable to stand the mess, Millie began organizing the papers and then carefully wiped off the table with a rag.

The two men watched as she cleaned the table. Millie did not care anymore about the strange man. She just wanted to go to bed

now.

Once the smooth surface of the table was finally visible, she turned to leave the study.

She had already arrived at the door when Harlan rubbed his stomach with a grimace and said, “| haven’t had dinner yet. Ask

your chef to make me something to eat, Marcus.”

Millie froze momentarily, tumed around, and looked at Harlan with wide eyes. He had not had dinner yet? The cook had already

turned in for the night, though.

“Everyone has gone to bed,” Marcus muttered.

“Yeah, but she’s still awake.”

Still looking at Marcus, Harlan pointed at Millie.

“lm a guest here. You have to feed me. Don’t worry. I’m not a picky eater.”

Judging from the scar on his arm, it was clear that the man had seen some difficult times. He still looked dangerous to Millie,

though.

A few seconds later, Marcus tumed his head in Millie’s direction and instructed, “Make him something to eat.”

Millie scowled. She was given yet another chore to do. She replied snappishly, “I’m not the chef.”

She was tired. She had no energy left to cook.

Harlan snapped his gaze at Millie, taken aback by her rude response.

“Your maid has a bad temper. | haven’t met a servant so rude before.”

Millie was dressed like a servant, which led Harlan to assume that she was one.

Marcus’ ebony eyes deepened in hue, and he said in a cold tone, “Just whip up something simple.”

Millie pressed her lips together and walked out of the room. The clock on the wall showed that it was already one in the morning,

but she could not go to bed yet since she still had to cook. Brilliant. Just freaking perfect.

She reluctantly made her way to the kitchen. After washing her hands, she went to open the refrigerator. It contained a lot of

ingredients, but her eyes zoomed in on a pack of uncooked noodles. She then remembered that noodle dishes were easy to

prepare and required little effort.

After deciding to make tomato and egg noodle soup, she grabbed the necessary ingredients from the refrigerator. Next, she

washed and chopped the vegetables, prepared the seasonings, and then boiled some water. Soon, the smoke from the pot

warmed the brisk air in the kitchen.

Marcus walked into the kitchen when Millie was frying the eggs. She looked up when she heard his footsteps but immediately

looked away. She was still upset at him.

The man studied her sulky expression before turning his attention to the boiling water in the pot.
