Chapter 384
Chapter: 384 Astonished, Millie halted at the door, her brow furrowing in confusion and surprise.
Upon hearing the commotion, Marcus tumed his attention towards the door. Millie’s expression conveyed her apparent misunderstanding of the situation.
Growing impatient with the situation, Marcus was about to push Nancy away, but before he could act, she took the initiative to get up and left with the file, leaving the room on her own accord.

A minute passed, yet the atmosphere in the presidential suite remained tense.
Millie furrowed her brow and fixed her gaze on Marcus. Despite his conviction that it was a misunderstanding, he couldn’t help but feel a touch of nervousness.
Refusing to yield to the need for an explanation, Marcus responded with a touch of irritation in his voice. “Didn't | tell you to cback early?” he asked, his frustration evident in his tone. “What tis it now?”
Hearing his question, Millie looked up, her eyes reflecting anger as she retorted, “Why would | cback early? To witness you two making out?” Millie responded, her tone laced with sarcasm and frustration.
Millie didn’t anticipate such blatant behavior with the door open. She couldn’t help but wonder if Marcus had really been disciplined or if he had simply never encountered the right person until now.
Millie couldn’t help but wonder if Marcus had developed an affinity for women like Nancy.
Based on Millie’s tone, Marcus was certain that she had misunderstood the situation. To convey his desire to silence any further discussion, he removed his hand from his trouser pocket and gently placed it on her lips, indicating that he didn’t wish to elaborate further.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“What you witnessed may not be the whole truth. Don’t overthink it,” Marcus reassured her.
Millie froze at the threshold, immobilized by uncertainty.
“step inside first. If there’s something weighing on your mind, let's talk about it inside,” Marcus urged, his voice a hushed rumble and his eyes flicking towards the entranceway.
The door hung ajar, and the occasional passerby would steal a curious glance into the room.
Millie’s eyes darted to two figures approaching, and after a moment of reflection, she decided to guard her anonymity. Her response was cool and detached: “Very well.”
As soon as Millie crossed the threshold, Marcus moved with purpose, closing the door and pinning her to the wall, his piercing gaze locked onto her. He solemnly said, “You misunderstand the situation. Had there been any secret liaison, would | leave the door so invitingly open?”
Millie’s eyes blinked, betraying her surprise. Was he really trying to clarify things?
His explanation resonated with a ring of truth, yet she had witnessed the scene herself—Nancy collapsing into his embrace.
