Chapter 529

Areparable vase would mark an optimal outcome.

Bruce affirmed quickly.

“Indeed, his expertise is notable. He’s previously mended a shattered vase for me, rendering it indistinguishable from its original

state.”

“Why are you lingering here then? Accompany Bruce without delay to have the vase restored.” Celeste’s impatience was evident

as she glared at Millie.

“lll depart at once,” Millie replied.

The prospect of escaping Celeste’s stifling presence granted Millie a sense of liberation. She promptly retrieved the fragmented

vase and left with Bruce.

Beyond the villa’s confines, Millie welcomed a lungful of fresh air as the car’s window descended.

“If you find it unbearable here, you’re welcome to accompany me. My mother is quite easygoing,” Bruce suggested.

Millie felt speechless. “Kindly abstain from making speculative remarks.”

In truth, he rather admired his cousin-in-law’s style. Despite the complexity it introduced, he found it intriguing. In fact, Bruce

quite appreciated Millie’s disposition, notwithstanding her propensity for stirring up commotion. There was a captivating allure to

her demeanor.

As for Bria, his impression wasn’t positive. If a conflict were to arise, so be it.

“Regarding the vase, did you genuinely break it?”

“No! Whether you believe it or not, if | were the culprit, I’d readily admit it.”

With those words, Millie closed her eyes to regain her composure.

An hour later, Bruce accompanied Millie to the skilled artisan capable of restoration.

The meticulous process warranted a month’s duration. Millie would need to return to retrieve the vase once the restoration had

concluded.

As the sun dipped and painted the world in warm hues, Marcus wrapped up his duties within the Thomas Group. Emerging into

the embrace of his car, a melodious chime greeted him — Mylo inviting him for a casual adventure, a whispered secret in the

airwaves.

Musing upon the morning’s events, Marcus found himself ensnared in contemplation over the increased attention he had

bestowed upon Millie as of late.

“Reveal to me the chosen location.”

With his vehicle resting in a designated haven, Marcus embarked upon a journey into the very heart of Preagend’s most opulent

bar.

Within the confines of a secluded chamber, a carnival of merriment unfolded before his eyes, an ambiance electrified with

vivacity.

In the sanctuary of this room, Mylo stood clasping a resplendent woman, his gaze akin to a lighthouse beam guiding a ship,

drawing Marcus into their orbit.
