“I don’t need your help,” he ground out.

The only people he allowed to treat him were his trusted doctors.

Shera took a step back and compromised.

“Fine, I won’t touch you.

I’ll stand here and wait until you treat yourself. Then I’ll take the first aid box back down.”

Marcus snorted and decided to act like she wasn’t around. He opened the box and took out thedisinfectant, disinfecting his hand first.

Shera let her gaze travel around the big bedroom, taking in every detail. The bed was dark blue, andthe floor was covered with a snow white carpet. The dresser carried some exquisite bottles and jarsthat only meant one thing; Millie must have lived in this room too.

Marcus did everything, and even bandaged his hand without asking for Shera’s help.

After closing the kit, she looked at Marcus and asked softly, “It seems that you usually have irritabledisorder attacks and have a tendency to act violent. Does Millie know this?”

Shera had worked as a volunteer in a hospital before, and had seen a patient who suffered from thesame thing.

When she looked up, Marcus was shooting daggers at her with his eyes.

Shera hurriedly explained, “I used to work as a volunteer in a hospital and saw a patient who alsosuffered from this disease. His condition was similar to yours.”

Marcus finally said in a cold tone, “Mind your business. I don’t have to answer you.”

Shera was embarrassed, but his answer meant Millie didn’t know about it.

She didn’t know if she had to be pleased or not by this. On one hand, she was happy she knewMarcus’ weakness, and Millie didn’t. On the other hand, she feared that Marcus kept it away from Millieso as not to worry her.

This was definitely not the first time Marcus was suffering from this.

If it was, he wouldn’t have reacted so quickly by coming upstairs and locking himself in the room. Hecould feel the attack coming.

“I contacted Trenton today. He asked me to go to the Thomas Group tomorrow. He will tell me thedetails about the aid plan for the remote South.”

Marcus just nodded indifferently and Shera went out. Coming out of his room, she couldn’t help butsmile. Finding out this weakness could be the breakthrough she needed.

Meanwhile, in the countryside, Millie went back home. While it was a sunny day in the countryside, itrained heavily just ten miles away in Preagend.

In the yard, Millie put the dried corn in a bag and carried it into the house. After two hours of work underthe heat of the sun, she was exhausted.

Roland came in after her with a big plastic, dressed in his green T-shirt, flip-flops and a big underpants.

“Millie, I got you two sweet melons. It is sweet and watery. My mom planted them. I thought of you afterseeing the hot sun.”

Millie watched in surprise as Roland put the melons on the stone stool. The melons were big andround. She could eat one for a long time.
