“What are you two doing? If you have a disagreement, discuss it civilly. No need for physical altercations.”
Millie suddenly rushed over and positioned herself between the two men. Their surprised expressions intensified the tense atmosphere.
Leon narrowed his eyes, examining his own hand. He had grabbed Marcus. From Marcus’ reaction, it was evident he was injured.
Although Marcus appeared composed, his face was taut.

Leon locked eyes with Marcus, unwilling to back down, issuing a warning.
“Don’t repeat this. You don’t have the right to pass judgment on my woman.”
With a touch of disdain, Marcus retorted, “I find it rather wasteful to even glance at this woman.”
Millie was rendered speechless. Could they not converse civilly?
Feeling the escalating tension, Millie quickly stepped in to halt Marcus. She tumed to him and held his uninjured arm.
“Let’s go for a walk in the backyard.”
She was concerned that if they engaged in a physical altercation, they’d both sustain severe injuries.
Marcus complied, allowing himself to be led to the backyard by Millie. In truth, he went along willingly; otherwise, Millie would have a hard tmoving him.
Once in the backyard, Millie released her grip on his arm and shot a glare at him.

Marcus teased, “You were protectingjust now? Worried about me, were you?”
Admittedly, Millie did shield him. As soon as she intervened, she forcefully removed Leon’s grip and courageously placed herself in harm’s way. She must have realized he was in considerable pain.
Angrily, Millie retorted, “You’re both adults. Can’t you communicate without resorting to aggression?”
She crossed her arms and continued, “Your arm is injured. Don’t push yourself. It’s painful.”
“You really care about me,” Marcus said as he leaned against the railing, taunting her.
Still concerned about Marcus’ wound, Millie urged, “Take off your coat and letexamine your injury.”
Observing his evident pain, she noticed his facial grimace. Leon had a firm grip.
