He opened the door and met Derek waiting for him.

“She’s here?”

“In the underground garage,” Derek answered.

They entered the elevator and arrived at an empty room in the underground garage.

A woman was tied in a chair at the center, with two men guarding her.

When Lois saw Marcus, her eyes went wide.

She couldn’t believe that it was Marcus that had her kidnapped.

She and Leon had gone out for dinner, then Leon dropped her off at home.

At first, she thought it was a competitor of her family who kidnapped her to threaten her father. But allalong, it was Marcus.

Marcus went close to her and tore off the tape from Lois’ mouth.

Standing under the light, he looked like the king of evil.

“Marcus, I’ve done nothing to you. Why did you kidnap me?” she asked as soon as the tape was rippedoff.

“Really? Are you really sure you haven’t done anything to me?” he asked, staring down at her andintimidating her.

“Yes. I’m sure I haven’t hurt you,” she answered nervously.

“Millie,” he whispered her name softly.

He didn’t have time to play twenty questions with her.

Lois’ eyes went wide. She gritted her teeth in anger. Marcus wanted to avenge Millie.

Lois had been meticulous, concealing her actions even from Leon, yet Marcus had discerned herdeeds. His caution was astounding.

“You must know all,” she breathed, something pressing against her temple.

A tremor rippled through her as the realization struck—a gun. Born into privilege, she had neverconfronted such a sight. Dread suffused her; Marcus’ willingness to kill for Millie startled her.

“A misunderstanding, perhaps. Allow me to explain. Pray, remain composed,” she beseeched, herteeth chattering as she forced herself to retain her calm.
