“I cto invite you for a meal. I closed up shop early upon hearing your husband’s arrival and prepared a feast for you both.”

Millie attempted to politely decline, not wanting to impose on Joan’s generosity.

“Don’t worry about that. Think ofas family. It’s the first tyour husband has visited the countryside. Since your grandma isn’t here, it’s my duty to extend hospitality. Let’s go.”

With a conspiratorial tone, Joan cast a glance at Marcus, who was occupied with selecting oranges in the yard.

“He’s quite the looker, isn’t he? You’ve got good taste. We’ve never seen such a dashing man in our small town before.”

Since the sun had not yet set, Millie seized the opportunity to give Marcus a brief tour of the area.

“Joan is my grandma’s closest friend in town. She’s always been kind to me

Marcus acknowledged her with a silent nod, attentive to Millie’s anecdotes.

“Did you enjoy the bread? Joan has been making them for decades. Whenever I passed by her stall during my school days, she’d always treatto one. She’s truly a generous soul.”

A smile played across Marcus’ lips.

“They were delicious.”

He recalled that Millie had mentioned her meal at Joan’s place during their phone call the previous night, so he had intentionally savored the sbread today.

“I’LL just grab swater from the store. Wait here for a moment.” Positioned at the roadside, Marcus waited patiently. Passersby couldn’t help but steal glances at him, mesmerized by his striking presence. Exiting the store with her purchase, Millie unexpectedly crossed paths with Roland, who appeared to be on a similar errand.

Roland’s gaze naturally turned towards Marcus, standing on the sidewalk. There was no doubt-he was Millie’s husband. Tall and robust, his magnetic charm was evident even in a casual stance.

Rumors had swirled that the watch on Marcus’ wrist was worth over a million dollars. Roland had never encountered such opulence in their small town.

In a single moment, Roland recognized that he paled in comparison-not as tall, not as handsome, and certainly not as wealthy as Marcus,

Millie’s husband was the epitof prosperity and charm, a realization that left Roland rueful.

“Millie, your husband is truly exceptional. It’s no wonder you turneddown.” A bittersweet smile graced Roland’s lips.

In the wake of his slumber, he’d awakened to the revelation of Marcus * arrival driving the Rolls-Royce that was beyond his wildest imagination. Millie was taken aback by Roland’s unexpected change in demeanor, He appeared less arrogant than usual.

Millie’s gaze shifted to Marcus, who stood there with an aloof expression. In the presence of Marcus, everyone else seemed inconsequential. If Millie were aman, she would likely feel humbled by his presence.
