Chapter: 382

Perplexed by the drink’s effects, Millie watched him, wondering why such a drink existed in the world.

Noticing her curious gaze, Marcus set the glass down and asked reprovingly, “Are you still considering drinking it?” Once again,

Millie found herself speechless due to another misunderstanding.

Sitting upright, Millie retorted, “Who said | wanted to drink? | was merely observing.”

She then picked up her orange juice and took a sip.

“Millie is amazing. She knows Mrs. Mylo was about to mention Millie's acquaintance with Mrs. Barton when Marcus’ phone rang.

Millie noticed it was Nancy calling.

Unable to hear Mylo speak, Marcus answered the call but remained silent initially.

After a moment, he inquired, “You are coming? Have you recovered?” It appeared that Nancy was on her way here.

“| see.” Marcus ended the call.

“Nancy is coming? Didn’t you say she was too sick to come? She recovered so quickly?” Mylo inquired.

Marcus narrowed his eyes, offering no response, leaving everyone unaware of his thoughts.

Strangely, Millie realized that Mylo hadn’t mentioned her acquaintance with Mrs. Barton since the phone call.

Instead, they began discussing their own affairs. After a while, Millie decided to stand up.

“Til be out.”

“The world beyond the windows is veiled in darkness. Where are you going?”

Marcus inquired, a glimmer of concern evident in his eyes.

Millie hadn't realized how swiftly time had passed. After some contemplation, she replied, “I'll head to the library for a while.”

Marcus hesitated briefly before nodding, “Be back early, and don’t wander around at night.”

“Millie loves to study, huh?”

With only a few steps taken, Millie overheard Mylo talking about her. She couldn't help but wonder if she gave off the impression

of someone who didn’t enjoy studying.

At ten o’clock in the evening, a car pulled up at the hotel’s entrance. Nancy, elegantly attired, stepped out with a smile. She

mused to herself that Thomas Group truly couldn't function without her, especially considering her crucial role in securing the

contract with Mrs. Barton.

Aknock echoed through the door of the presidential suite.
