“Eat just one more. It’s high in protein.”

High in protein? The mention of protein made Millie think of her possible pregnancy. She’d heard that consuming more protein was recommended during this period.

“What are you staring at?” Marcus inquired when he noticed she was lost in thought.

“Alright, I’ll eat it,” Millie agreed with a smile. She accepted the shrimp and enjoyed the flavors.

She had savored two out of the three shrimps in total.

Her face lit up with a hidden sense of delight.

Marcus indulged in another shrimp before putting down his chopsticks.

He rested his hands on the table, raising his eyebrows as he asked, “What has got you in such high spirits?”

Millie gently shook her head and offered, “Let’s not dwell on it.

Please go ahead and enjoy your meal.”

She chose to withhold the news of her potential pregnancy until she was absolutely sure. What if it was simply a delayed period and she wasn’t truly expecting it? The embarrassment would be insurmountable.

Marcus had a feeling that Millie had something on her mind, but she didn’t want to talk about it now. She must have her reasons, so he no longer asked.

Observing her seemingly improved mood, he concluded that her concerns might not be as dire as he had initially perceived.

Then a thought struck Millie, causing her to withdraw her hand from her cheek before she spoke.

“I’d like to ask you something.”

This abrupt shift in atmosphere left Marcus with an unsettling sensation in his core.

“What would you like to know?”

Millie, gathering her courage, inquired, “What prompted you to bring Shera into the Thomas Group?”

In all honesty, Millie had diligently attended to her grandmother in the countryside, only to return and discover that her husband had ushered his rumored former lover into the company.

It seemed he hadn’t considered the implications of her role as his wife at all.

On her first day back at work, to make matters worse, Shera visited the design department to incite her. Even more infuriating was the realization that her own fate now rested in Shera’s hands.

For a brief moment, Marcus was caught off guard, sensing mounting tension in the room. He knew that if he didn’t provide a clear explanation, the situation could potentially becproblematic.

“I acknowledge that I mishandled this situation. On that day, she unexpectedly showed up, shared her experiences, and expressed her wish to return to the charity department. I felt sympathy for her, so I provided her with Trenton’s business card, hoping she would cto grips with reality and work earnestly. I never anticipated her hidden agenda. I didn’t bring it up earlier because I didn’t want to burden you while you were looking after your grandmother in the countryside.”

Shera’s cunning lay in her meticulous preparation.
