Millie must have noticed the wound on his arm, and he couldn’t hide it any longer.


    “A few days ago, I tripped and fell, injuring my arm.”


    Millie was skeptical of his exnation. Knowing that he was an adult, she found it hard to believe that a


    simple fall could result in such a severe injury to his arm.


    However, Millie didn’t want to push him to reveal the truth. She turned away from him.


    In fact, a week ago, while Marcus was driving homete at night, he noticed something amiss with his


    car. He pulled over to inspect it, and suddenly several cars pulled up behind him. A group of assants


    emerged from those cars, attacking him with weapons.


    Their assault was relentless, clearly aimed at killing him.


    These attackers were skilled inbat. Although he managed to escape, he was injured in the


    process. The most significant wound was on his arm, where he’d been struck by an axe.


    What puzzled him was that the attack tactics resembled those of Raven. Why would Raven want him


    dead? ording to his information, the supreme leader of Raven was still his grandfather, Victor


    Thomas, a cold-hearted, ruthless, and ambitious man.

    However, he was Victor’s grandson and the heir he valued. There was no reason for him to send

    For the past few days, he’d remained within the vi, recuperating and not going to thepany.


    Today, feeling somewhat improved, he ventured out to see the person he missed.


    Marcus plucked a red tulip from nearby and detached it.


    “Tum around.”


    Millie slowly turned, and Marcus approached, cing the tulip behind her ear. A tickling sensation


    coursed through her ear, leaving her momentarily startled. He smiled.


    “The tulipplements your beauty.”


    However, in Marcus’ eyes, Millie’s beauty surpassed that of the flowers.


    “Really?” Millie responded softly, relishing the feeling of being flirted with. She enjoyed this sensation of


    happiness.


    Just as Marcus was about to affirm, “Absolutely,” his phone rang. The caller was udia. He swiftly


    answered the call.


    After concluding the conversation, he ryed the message to Millie.


    “Grandma invited us to have a meal at her ce.”


    “Now?”
