Chapter 323
Marcus smiled. He himself couldn’t explain just how glad he was to see the glib-tongued and fearless Millie a blushing mess just because she bought underwear for him. It made him recall the twhen she said she wanted to keep a gigolo. She had to be kidding then.
He was indeed on the phone earlier, but when he saw Millie rush to that shop, he grinned, understanding why she was being so mysterious. She was just shy and didn’t want him to know what she was going to buy.
He wasn’t going to do anything at first. But when he saw the men’s underwear in the sshop, he couldn’t miss the opportunity to tease her. He could go and buy them himself, but where was the fun in that? Also, he didn’t let anyone touch his underwear, but Millie was his wife. He figured it was okay. As a matter of fact, he had a mind to make her buy his underwear from now on.

The car flew by the dark scenery at a constant speed. Marcus adjusted the temperature in the car. As it got warm, Millie got sleepy.
She yawned and leaned against the seat more comfortably. Marcus held the steering wheel tighter, his face hardening and his eyes darkening. As soon as Millie closed her eyes, Marcus’ voice woke her up.
“Don't sleep now. Sit well.” The alarm in his voice wiped away her sleepiness. She looked at Marcus with a frown. “What's wrong?” Marcus glanced at the rear-view mirror and said, “The car behind has been following us since we left.”
Her heartbeat quickening, Millie glanced at the rear-view mirror on her side and saw the black off-road vehicle that looked like a galloping tiger. It was following closely and aggressively behind them.
Millie turned to glance nervously at Marcus.
He, however, was entirely composed. His cold demeanor remained intact as he held the steering wheel steadily, his long legs pressing down on the accelerator. The car sprang forward.
Millie caught sight of the pursuing vehicle in the rearview mirror. It, too, was speeding up.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, Marcus’ car was high-end and its performance noticeably outshone the off-road vehicle behind them. The gap between the cars was increasing.
Just as Millie was starting to feel relieved, certain that Marcus could outrun their pursuers, he abruptly swerved the steering wheel, bringing the car to a halt in the middle of the road.
The off-road vehicle trailing them also had to stop abruptly, nearly colliding with them.
Millie was flabbergasted. They were just about to escape danger when Marcus’ unexpected move left her nervous again. She turned to Marcus in confusion.
“Why did you stop the car? Shouldn't we continue driving to shake them off?” Marcus glanced in the rearview mirror with a steely gaze. His sleeves rolled up, he exuded an air of menace.
“| want to see what they’re planning.”
