Chapter: 592


    She kept doing bad things. It was the vase that she broke. Last time in the bar, her ssmate from


    Preagend University used her of pushing her against a doorframe and giving the person an ugly


    scar. Perhaps that too was true.

    Every bad thing that happened pointed to Millie. How then was she not a bad woman? Her smile was


    just a weapon used for deceit.


    Bruce looked at Marcus in disbelief. “You’ve made up your mind, I see.”


    Marcus felt like he had been poisoned. His pen suddenly weighed a thousand pounds. He groaned


    inwardly. He had signed countless documents with ease in his life. Why did signing this one seem to be


    so difficult?


    He forced himself to sign, and when he finally did, he felt a sharp pain in his heart.


    They all saw Marcus’ hand shake as he signed the document.


    Marcus closed the document with a snap and gave it to Derek, asking, “The electronic version has


    been sent to her, yeah?”


    “Yes.” Derek nodded.


    Bruce was still stunned. “What will happen to Millie now? Her grandmother is going to die of this illness.


    Millie won’t ept to divorce now.”


    “You worry too much about her, Bruce. In case you haven’t noticed, Millie is very tenacious. I don’t think


    I’ve seen anyone that is able to bail out of any situation like her. Even the most important or scariest


    thing won’t hold her down.”


    Amidst the incessant vibrations of his phone, Marcus remained oblivious to its summons. Upon


    entering the room, he shrugged off his coat, the phone nestled within its pocket.


    Within the building, irritation creased the kidnapper’s brow. “No response on the phone.”


    Millie’s heart sank; her anticipation was realized. It was unreasonable to expect Marcus to answer at


    this juncture.


    “T wamed you—he won’te to my rescue.” The kidnapper’s voice carried a resolute edge.


    “Proceed.”


    They dialed once more, met with silence.


    “It appears her words held truth. Marcus has forsaken her.”


    While the oue had been foreseen, the weight of the word “abandon” still bore a pang of sorrow for


    Millie.


    She needed to engineer her own escape. With the kidnappers engrossed in the phone, Millie lowered


    herself, retrieved a concealed de from her shoe, andmenced slicing at the binding around her


    wrist.


    In a twist of fate, Lois seized a brick from the ground and lunged back. The kidnapper on the phone


    crumpled unconscious as the brick struck his head.


    “Millie, I won’t leave you alone.”


    “You…” The wounded kidnapper’s eyes widened in fury. He hadn’t anticipated Lois’ return.


    Another kidnapper, armed with the remote control, promptly seized Lois, his wordsden with venom.


    “You wretch, I’ll end you.”
