Chapter: 46 Thanks to her, his best friends who had known him for over ten years now thought he was a cheat.
Meanwhile, Millie barely heard them. Her mind was full of images of Grace, contorting up the worse scenarios that made her heart race faster. One room was left. If Grace was here, she had to be held in there.
Millie nodded determinedly and rushed towards the door, apologizing as she went, “I'm sorry about this. | was mistaken...” Marcus grabbed her arm as she hurried past him.
“What's gotten into you? You walk in here and ransack the room. Who the hell is Grace?” he asked furiously. She just gave him the embarrassment of a lifetime, and she thought she could just leave?
“Ouch!” Millie yelped in pain.
It was only then that she recognized Marcus. No wonder she felt like one of the men looked familiar. She just hadn’t had the time to look at him carefully.
He wasn’t just holding her hand. He was squeezing it hard, as if punishing her. “Let me go, Marcus! | need to find her!”
“Who do you have to find this time? You've already destroyed this place looking for this imaginative person. What's really gotten into you, Millie? How can you come in here and cause trouble while I’m playing cards?”
Millie kept trying to pull her hand away but to no avail.
“| don’t know what you're talking about. I’m looking for someone!” Millie exclaimed in frustration.
Marcus only got angrier when she kept denying what he knew to be true.
“Just admit it!”
Mylo stared at Marcus’ hand and how he squeezed Millie’s hand with force. After the kick Marcus just gave him, Mylo was more convinced that Marcus really had another woman outside. Why else was he acting like a cornered dog?
“Marcus, let your wife go. You're hurting her and it looks like she'll burst into tears any second from now. Can't you see how upset she is because of this? She really cares about you.”
Those were all lies. Marcus was certain of it. All she wanted was to make his life a living hell.
“Mylo, | asked you to shut it!” Marcus warned.
Millie was still struggling to break free, but Marcus was stronger than her. She desperately needed to find Grace. She stomped her foot and shouted back at Marcus,
“You must be out of your mind. Let me go. You're going to break my hand. You won't be able to compensate me if that happens.”
Marcus flew into a blind rage after she said that.
