Chapter 547

The doctor assessed Lois’ wrist and shared some information.

As Millie grappled with her thoughts, Marcus drove away.

At the hospital entrance, the doctor, clad in white, explained to Lois.

“Apply this cream to the scar; it will gradually diminish over time. Complete removal, however, isn’t

achievable.”

Lois appraised the unsightly scar, masking her disappointment with a smile.

“Alright, thank you. Please drop by our home when you can. My mother misses you.”

Lisa playfully tapped Lois’ forehead.

“Of course I will. But no more reckless endeavors, alright? This time, you’ve escaped unscathed. Your

mother was deeply distressed. Let’s avoid such scares in the future.”

Lois sheepishly grinned. “I’ve learned my lesson.”

“Good. I’m on duty now. It’s getting late; drive safely.”

Having exchanged farewells, Lois walked toward her BMW and climbed inside, oblivious to the two

men concealed within the greenery by the parking lot.

“Is she Leon’s girlfriend?”

“Absolutely. I’ve made inquiries. She’s both his girlfriend and fiancée. If we abduct her, Leon will

undoubtedly come to her rescue. At that juncture, we’ll demand ten million from him. Armed with the

funds, we’ll vanish without a trace, impervious to his vengeance.”

With a snort, the man spat on the ground, saying, “The bastard thinks he’s invincible just because he’s

the big boss? He demolished my house and refused to offer an extra of half a million in compensation.

Let’s see if his girlfriend is worth half a million.”

“Shall we proceed?”

The other man observed the back of Lois’ BMW and then shifted his gaze to the hospital entrance.

“We should choose a more secluded location next time. This place attracts too much attention.”

Their ride back was filled with an unusual silence. Millie stole a glance at Marcus, noting his displeased

expression.

Despite feeling innocent, Millie couldn’t shake off Marcus’ perception of her actions.

She touched her now-empty stomach and gazed out at the passing scenery.

She had barely taken a few bites when Marcus summoned her.

Marcus surreptitiously glanced at Millie’s midsection; his thoughts were left unsaid.
