This time, Millie couldn’t utter a word.

The sound of his stern voice frightened her.

“I know. Today was an exception. I carried it because I was concerned about potential danger. Please don’t be angry,” Millie explained in a soft voice.

In truth, she had confidence that Bruce wouldn’t harm her when they met. If he intended to harm her, he could have done it earlier.

Seeing Millie earnestly explaining herself, Marcus felt remorse for having angrily interrogated her earlier. He had acted out of concern for her.

“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have yelled at you like that,” Marcus said, placing his hand on Millie’s shoulder.

Deep down, he understood why Millie had met Bruce. She must have clung to a glimmer of hope, thinking that since Bruce had planted the Bloody Herb, he might possess the antidote.

As long as there was even a small chance, she wouldn’t give up. Her determination was evident in how she had risked everything to save her grandmother.

Millie shook her head in response.

“It’s alright. I know that I shouldn’t have done that.”

Her lips were tightly pursed. A trace of disappointment was evident on her face, and her fingers were visibly clenched.

Upon seeing how she reacted, Marcus sighed softly and pulled her into his embrace.

“I understand your reasons. It actually moved me. But it was just too dangerous, you know? You almost gavea heart attack!” Marcus spoke in a loving voice. He couldn’t stand to see Millie hurt. If it made her happy, she could even punch him.

Millie nodded, indicating that she understood what he meant.

“Why are you just nodding and not saying anything? Are you still upset?” Marcus softened his tone again, showing his concern.

Women tended to get more emotional when appeased, and the more they were pacified, the more they felt wronged.

Millie began to sniffle.

“You’re incredibly annoying. You knew I had your gun, yet you skillfully coaxedinto admitting it, makingappear foolish with all the missteps in my performance.”

After a brief pause, Millie continued, “What irritatesthe most is that you were looking atlike you were interrogating a criminal!

Did you genuinely think I was that gullible? I’ve lived through a lot, and I’m actually quite intelligent. I only act when I’m confident. When I went to see Bruce, I was sure he couldn’t harm me.

For instance, I wouldn’t have gone to meet Jonah.”

Millie sensed that Marcus was overly concerned about her, worrying even about the slightest hint of danger. It was as if he had forgotten that she wasn’t a fragile damsel in distress.

Taken aback, Marcus realized Millie was holding him responsible for underestimating her strength.

He didn’t view her as weak. He was just afraid for her safety, fearing the slightest chance of her getting hurt.
