With her frustration mounting, she paced around the bathroom with clenched teeth. An ominoussensation settled in her gut, warning her that Leon might uncover the truth soon.

She looked at Lois’ number, her hands trembling with cold dread.

Lately, she had seldom reported to Lois, unwilling to relinquish such a good man.

She had observed the stark contrast in Leon’s behavior towards Lois and herself.

With Lois, he was cold and distant, rarely spending quality time with her. But with Fiona, he was adifferent person altogether.

He fulfilled her every desire, indulging her whims and showering her with boundless affection.

After sending Millie home, Marcus set off on the road.

In a damp, abandoned warehouse, Derek doused Giovanni’s head with a bucket of cold water.

“Ahem.”

Giovanni finally regained consciousness.

The massive iron door swung open with a loud noise, and Marcus entered. His footsteps resonatedheavily inside the area.

Struggling to break free, Giovanni attempted to open his swollen eyes. When he managed to look over,he felt as if each step Marcus took was upon his own scalp.

Marcus approached and circled Giovanni, leaving the latter all the more disoriented.

“Sir, I’m begging you. Spare my life. I still want to live!” Giovanni pleaded, raising his head to look atMarcus with desperate eyes. h, you want to live, eh? Sure.”

“Really? You’re not going to kill me anymore?”

“Now, I’m going to ask you a question. Answer me truthfully. What’s your connection with Fiona? If onelie comes out of your mouth, I’ll make sure that you won’t live to see the sun rise again!”

Marcus was determined to eliminate Fiona once and for all, all for Millie’s sake.

Giovanni sensed that Marcus was contemplating his execution while staring at him, so he nodded,feeling immense pressure.

“lL used to be her boyfriend. She underwent plastic surgery and caught the eye of the wealthy Leon.She wanted to break up with me, but I refused. I needed money, so I asked her for some. She wantedme to kill Millie. It was all her plan. She wanted me to kill Millie.”

“Why did she want to dispose of Millie?”

Giovanni looked down and continued, “Because Millie witnessed us having an affair. She was afraidMillie would tell Leon, and he would leave her.”

Marcus creased his eyebrows. He didn’t expect Fiona to be involved with another man when she wascared dearly by Leon.
