Chapter 405

Chapter: 405

He intentionally collided with her, spilled wine onto her dress, and pretended to help her clean the stain off. All of that was an

elaborate plot to rip her dress.

Marcus took in Millie’s shell-shocked expression and clenched his hands into fists.

Anxiety rose within Millie. She would have been stripped off by now if it were not for the high quality of her dress.

Marcus took a menacing step toward Sewell and asked icily, “Why did you do that?”

“| told you, Mr. Thomas. | just want to clean the stain off her dress.”

The moment he stopped talking, Marcus pressed his foot hard on his shoulder.

“Tell me the truth.”

Sewell let out a pained howl. His shoulder blade felt like it was being crushed. He raised his eyes to the intimidating figure

standing before him.

“It's alla misunderstanding, Mr. Thomas! In fact, Mrs. Thomas and | were schoolmates. | wasn’t planning to hurt her.”

It was true that they were schoolmates.

The last part of his sentence was a lie, though. He was actually planning to rip her dress off to humiliate her.

Marcus, naturally, did not believe a single word he said. He snorted and instructed, “Raise your head.”

Sewell’s head shot up, and Millie narrowed her eyes.

She finally recognized Sewell. The man was a notorious gambler at Preagend University, and he was known for having a lot of

debt.

He had lost a lot of weight since the last time she saw him. No wonder she did not recognize him earlier.

Millie’s eyes twinkled a little. She looked around the room until her gaze found Nancy.

She took a deep breath, approached Marcus, and tugged on his arm.

“| want to ask him something.”

Marcus’ brow furrowed, surprised that Millie would want to interrogate the man who had just attacked her. Her face was pale.

She was obviously terrified.

Marcus, sensing her adamancy, nodded and took a step back.

Millie circled around Sewell before stopping in front of him with her arms crossed.

“Did someone order you to do that? How much did that person give you?”
