Chapter: 490

“That’s reassuring. | knew you wouldn't overlook it. Perhaps you could make the transfer today. We didn’t specify an amount

initially, and your family mentioned it would hinge on her post-marital performance. What are your thoughts?”

Gianna’s words belied a hint of remorse for Mia’s earlier remarks, which had portrayed Millie in a negative light.

It could make things much harder for them to ask for more money.

Gianna attempted to rectify the situation.

“I've heard that Millie has been excelling in your household. | understand she took on the role of a maid and has been putting in

dedicated effort. That surely holds significant value, doesn’t it? Marcus, what sum do you plan to transfer?”

Taking a deep breath, Millie shook her head discreetly at Marcus and proceeded to disparage herself.

Were these people leeches or something?

“lm merely a maid, and | take my responsibilities lightly. | haven’t been thorough in cleaning the floors or tending to these plants.

In fact, | inadvertently damaged them, and I’ve learned these plants are quite precious. Oh, and | broke an antique vase, which |

concealed.”

Upon hearing Millie’s self-deprecating words, Marcus averted his gaze.

“In light of what you've shared today, it’s evident she has undergone significant transformation. She’s grown notably more diligent

and compliant. Well, I'd say it’s worth one billion.”

“One billion?!”

Millie was stunned to hear that Marcus intended to bestow a billion to the Brown family.

Asurge of anger threatened to burst within her.

She should have uprooted all those plants and made Gianna pay the price.

Without delay, Marcus extracted his phone, poised to execute the money transfer.

Millie promptly averted her gaze.

As Marcus presented his offer, Mia’s, Gianna’s, and Denby’s faces lit up with elation. Could anything be more exhilarating than

the prospect of receiving a billion dollars?

Balancing a glass of water in her hand, Millie lifted her eyes to observe Marcus in the act of transferring the funds.

“Share your account details,” Marcus said.

“Here, use this card for the transfer.”

Gianna promptly took out the most opulent, singular golden card of the Brown family. Strangely, rather than taking it, Marcus

turned to Millie and extended his hand.

“Give me your card number. Why are you staring at me like that?”
