“Transferring the money to Millie isn’t a bad idea either. Let’s proceed with the meal. I've prepared an elaborate spread towelcome Marcus.”

Since the funds were now in Millie’s account, Gianna was determined to extract them one way or another.Around the table, despite the recent disappointment, Marcus remained an honored guest.

Gianna spared no effort in fawning on him, arranging the choicest dishes before him to avoid any further affront.After the meal, Denby promptly ushered Marcus into the study.

“Marcus, this tea is quite rare. | hope you'll indulge in a taste later. Millie might have caused you and the Thomas family someinconvenience. | implore your forgiveness for her behavior. She’s been mischievous since childhood, influenced by hergrandmother’s ways. But rest assured, now that she’s part of the Thomas family, I’ll ensure she conducts herself well and takescare of you.”

Denby placed a cup of tea before Marcus. “Having an outstanding son-in-law like you is beyond my wildest dreams. It’s anhonor.”

Denby held Marcus in high regard. And rightfully so — the Thomas family was immensely wealthy, a connection everyone soughtafter.

Marcus had just transferred a billion dollars with ease, a feat not just anyone could accomplish.

As Denby moved around, word spread that Marcus, the most prosperous businessman in Preagend, was his son-in-law. Thecommunity held Marcus in great esteem.

“Don't hesitate to speak your mind if you have anything to say.”

“Actually, | do have something to discuss. The Brown family’s company is facing financial trouble with no capital operation. | washoping the Thomas Group could provide financing. Be assured, the financing will undoubtedly yield returns for the ThomasGroup.”

Marcus traced the rim of his cup, gazing out the window at the pavilion.

“Investment is a significant decision. I'll return and have my team conduct thorough research before we proceed with ourdiscussions.”

“Alright, do your research. If you require assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out.”

Though Marcus didn’t offer an outright agreement, Denby saw a glimmer of hope.

He was also determined to replace a way to wrest that billion dollars from Millie. How could she, a troublesome girl, enjoy such afortune?

Here she was, married into the Thomas family, with no financial worries. How could she possibly lay claim to that money?Once Millie had finished her meal, she ventured to the garden pavilion.

The setting was idyllic, with a small bridge, trickling water, fragrant blooms, graceful willows, a serene pond, and a vine-madedeck chair.

Millie reclined on the chair nonchalantly, feeling her mother’s lingering presence in the air.

Her mother had planted various greens here, most of which had been uprooted by Gianna. Yet, some stubborn seeds had takenroot and flourished the following year.
