Not long after, Marcus went to the company to take care of the things he left untreated today.

He would begin classes tomorrow. To make his movements easier, he decided to stay in the hotel andasked Millie to stay with him.

Left alone in the hotel room, Millie soon went out to grab something to eat and bumped into Louis in thehallway of the hotel.

“Why did you leave? I asked you to wait for me,” he inquired.

Millie lowered her eyes slightly in embarrassment. “I’m sorry. Something came up, and Ihad to go.”

Louis crossed his arms over his chest and stared at Millie for a few seconds before asking, “Who is thatman you were with earlier? You two looked close.”

He could still remember how the man’s cold and sharp eyes made him shudder.

And that only happened when the man found him looking at Millie.

“He’s my husband. I got married.”

Louis went numb. It was as though a truck ran over him.

It took a while for him to come back to himself. He cleared his throat lightly and said, “I know a little bitabout the man. He is very powerful. I’m surprised. You’ve certainly grown in the past four years. And itis really something to be married to a man like him.”

Millie almost scoffed. This marriage was all a mistake. It wasn’t something she wanted.

“Please, don’t make fun of me,” she said light-heartedly.

If Gianna hadn’t stood against Mia marrying Marcus, she would have never had anything to do withhim. Millie decided to change the topic and asked, “When are you leaving this time?”

She could remember how he couldn’t wait to leave after the speech last time.

“I can’t believe you’re so ungrateful. Now that you’re good enough, you want me to leave, huh? Iremember how you wanted me to stay longer last time so that you could show me your designs. Iguess everything has changed.”

“What? No! That’s not what I meant,” Millie hurriedly said, seeing that he took her words the wrongway.

There was a trace of imperceptible regret in Louis’ eyes as he answered her, “I’ll be here for a fewmore days.” He had been in a hurry to leave last time because he was too focused on her physicalappearance. Just because she was ugly, he got annoyed by her design draft and wanted to leave assoon as the speech was over.

This time, he came in advance and decided to stay for longer because he had a crush on the prettyMillie.

“T’ll go back to my room now and get some rest. I’m really tired,” he said after a while.

He wanted to ask Millie to have some drinks with him, but he feared her control freak of a husband.

After Louis left, Millie went to the fountain outside the hotel and called Teresa to ask about hergrandmother.
