“Is Shera to be the instrument through which Marcus will feel the anguish of love’s loss?”


    Ryan smiled at Bruce’s astuteness in guessing his ultimate aim.


    Aplex amalgamation of emotions yed across Bruce’s features. It had been a while since hest


    encountered Millie, leaving him in the dark about her well-being.


    Nevertheless, he harbored a desire to shield her from harm. Yet with Shera’s return, the coteral


    damage on Millie’s emotional front was all but inevitable.


    “Whatever your course of action, spare Millie. Her innocence remains intact.”


    A grin tugged at Ryan’s lips as he responded, “You’re making things quite challenging for me. A


    demanding task.”


    Bruce leaned back, his thoughts spiraling, mirrored in the ss before him.


    At the old mansion.

    Freyja helped udia onto the bed. udia sat with knitted eyebrows, deep in thought.


    Freyja carefully ced udia’s cane aside and said, “Mrs. Thomas, you should get some rest and


    forget about your grandsons. The only thing you need at your age is some tranquility and afortable


    life.”


    When the frown on udia’s face didn’t rx, Freyja continued, “Your three grandsons are all


    outstanding individuals. They all have their own minds and don’t need you to worry about them.”


    With a sigh, udia lowered her eyes and said, “I’m just thinking about Shera. I don’t like the fact that


    she just appeared out of no where.”

    Freyja stood aside with her hands sped and listened to her.


    “About that, I asked someone to look into it, and apparently, Shera has been spending most of her time


    at Vi Imperiale. It seems that both Shera and Rhea have gained favour with Celeste, and have her


    approval.”


    “Shera must be in love with Marcus. That is the problem. I can’t help but worry that she will cause


    trouble and misunderstandings between Millie and Marcus. They’re such a perfect couple. I don’t want


    to see them drift apart,” udia said with a sigh.


    “We can also look at it from a different perspective. It could be a test of their rtionship. Once they


    pass the test, the bond between Sir Marcus and Mrs. Millie will only grow stronger,” Freyja said softly.


    udia thought about it for a while and nodded in agreement. Perhaps Freyja was right, but still,


    udia wanted everything to go well and smoothly without any such test.


    A thought crossed her mind and she looked up at Freyja.


    “Call Millie now and ask her toe over for a meal with Marcus tomorrow.”


    “Okay.”


    Freyja nodded and called Millie, putting the call on speakerphone.


    The sound of Millie’s phone ringing broke through the silence of the ward.


    “Mrs. Thomas, this is Freyja. Mrs. udia Thomas would like you and Sir Marcus toe to the old


    mansion tomorrow for a meal.”


    Millie nced at her grandma on the hospital bed before standing up and walking over to the window.
