Chapter: 45
Their conversation distracted Millie. She saw that one of the men in the room was familiar. However, she didn’t waste a second to figure it out when Grace was probably dying somewhere. She skipped past them and walked inside.
These bastards must have hidden Grace in the back room.
The lounge was empty, but Millie didn’t give up. Her eyes stopped on the closed wardrobes. She rushed towards them and pulled them open one by one, creating a loud continuous sound in the room.
Mylo observed Millie for a while, then suddenly looked back at Delmor and winked as if he had just figured something out.
“Grace is a girl’s name, right? Look at how angry Mrs. Thomas is. She is ready to tear this place apart. Marcus, did you cheat on your wife with another woman called Grace?” Mylo asked, looking at Marcus in disbelief. That was the only explanation he had for Millie’s actions.
Marcus blinked several times in confusion. What was Mylo talking about? An affair?
Millie became increasingly desperate. There was no one in the wardrobe. With bloodshot eyes, she hurried towards the bathroom, but it was closed. Impatient, she forced it open with a crack sound.
“Grace!” she shouted into the empty bathroom. “Wow! Mrs. Thomas has quite the temper.”
Delmor couldn’t stop staring. He almost wished that Millie never found this Grace she was looking for. If not, Millie would surely beat her to death.
He would have never thought that Mrs. Thomas had such a temper.
“Delmor, | think Mrs. Thomas is already being very understanding and gentle. Other women look for mistresses with knives in hand,” Mylo said, then shook his head disappointedly at Marcus.
“This is all your fault, Marcus. She may not be the most attractive of women, but three days into your marriage and you've cheated on her already? That’s cruel, even for you. I’d advice you to bring this Grace out before things get out of hand.”
Marcus glared at Mylo like he was crazy and kicked him under the table.
“Will you shut up?”
“Why did you kick me?”
Millie came out of the bathroom, and stood there looking into space, sweat dripping from her forehead, and her chest heaving heavily. The stupid bathroom was empty!This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
“Mrs. Thomas, she’s not here. We're the only ones in this room. You should calm down. You shouldn’t hurt yourself just because Marcus cheated on you,” Mylo said sympathetically.
“Can you stop spouting nonsense? We've been playing cards all night, so how did | cheat on her? Was it with you?” Marcus shouted, getting fed up with Mylo’s assumptions.
However, Mylo was convinced that he cheated with a woman called Grace. Why else was his wife acting so irrational?
Marcus then moved his burning gaze to Millie. She was making a fool out of him.
