“Well, I was fearful that you wouldn’t believe me, so I hesitated to tell you,” Millie confessed, nestling


    her head against Marcus’ chest.


    The sensation of being trusted wasforting.


    “After you’re released from the hospital, gather all the information regarding your design process. I’ll


    assemble the best legal team and reim your work,” Marcus dered, resolve in his voice. He could


    not stand idly by while someone robbed Millie of her hard-earned designs.


    “Okay, I’ve retained all the design materials,” Millie assured him.

    She then turned her head and spotted someone at the doorway. The two figures were smiling


    peculiarly, prompting Millie to break away from Marcus’ embrace and whisper, “Your friends are here.”


    “Ahem…”


    Mylo, one hand nonchntly in his pocket, strode into the room.


    “I’m sorry for the intrusion. We intended to depart, but seeing as we’re already here, we must extend


    our well wishes to Millie.”


    Millie’s cheeks flushed slightly, and she nced at Marcus, questioning with her eyes why they were


    visiting.


    “I merely mentioned that I was at the hospital. They likely assumed I was ill,” Marcus exined.


    “If you had sent just one more message to tell us you were here taking care of Millie, we wouldn’t have


    barged in. We feared something had happened to you, so we rushed over.”


    Marcus rose from the bed and took a seat on the sofa.


    “You came empty-handed? How daring!”


    “Millie looks pale. Perhaps we should donate some blood to her?” Mylo grinned, beginning to roll up his


    sleeves.


    Millie directed their attention to the cab beside the bed, smiling.


    “There are fruits and cakes here. Help yourselves.”


    “Thank you.”

    At that moment, a nurse entered, checked the remaining infusion liquid, nced around the room,


    offered Delmor a smile, and exited.


    Mylo’s eyes lingered on her retreating figure. Delmor handed him a banana, but Mylo was momentarily


    distracted.


    “Caught your eye, has she?” Delmor teased.


    Mylozily epted the banana, smirking.


    “A voluptuous figure and a slender waist. Quite appealing.”


    Delmor sat down, peeling the banana, a smile ying on his lips.


    “I know her. She was a ssmate of mine. Though she’s ‘merely’ a nurse, she hails from a well-off


    family, and she’s fond of Bruce.”
