Chapter: 68

Before long, she cup with another solution as she recalled seeing the impressive dragon-shaped ring Marcus wore on his left index finger. That ring was a symbol of status and power.

She could borrow the ring and use it just to get into the party. Of course, she would return as soon as it was over. That could work.

Now, she just had to get to the black box that was inside the drawer next to the bed.

That was where he kept the ring.

This time, Millie’s steps were even lighter as she made her way back to the sofa in the dark and took her phone. She slowly walked to the bedside table which was unfortunately too close to Marcus.

Millie squatted down with bated breath. Inch by inch, she pulled open the drawer, praying to the heavens that it wouldn’t make a sound. Just then, the man on the bed suddenly turned over. Millie froze, her eyes as wide as saucers.

She stayed in that position for a moment, breath withheld, until the room was completely silent once again. She released the breath she was holding with relief, and turned the light on her phone to its lowest capacity.

She directed the light into the drawer and saw the black box at the innermost part of the drawer. She took it out carefully, her heart beating excitingly again. But, when she opened it, it was empty. For the third tthat evening, Millie found herself crashing. Where was the ring?

Her eyes unconsciously moved to the man on the bed. If the ring wasn’t in the box, it was supposed to still be on his finger. He must have forgotten to take it off before sleeping.

She could give up now, but she had already taken so much risk in vain that it would be stupid not to try this. Millie made up her mind, and slowly climbed onto the bed, making sure not to press her full weight on it.

However, as soon as her knees touched the mattress, Marcus’ breathing paused momentarily, as if he sensed something in his sleep. Millie also stopped breathing.

She didn’t move a single muscle. A few seconds later, his breathing returned to normal and he didn’t move. Only then did Millie breathe too. She crouched her body, reached out and slowly lifted the silky comforter.

With the help of the faint light from her phone, she found Marcus’ hand. Shit! It was his right hand. His very bare right hand. Now she had to find his left hand.

Millie twisted her body at a ninety-degree angle and peered over Marcus. There it was; the dragon head glowing on his left hand. ‘The ring was even more impressive and imposing up close. It was undoubtedly of great value, and extremely rare too.

Millie cautiously reached out to take the ring, silently begging him not to resent her for her actions. He left her with no choice after refusing that she go with him. She silently promised to take care of the ring with her life, until she returned it to him at the party.

Just before her hand touched the ring, Marcus suddenly rolled over, knocking her phone out of her hand and pinning her beneath his muscular body.
