He regained his composure immediately, though, and his temper began to flare
again. The woman was definitely up to something.
“This is my room; I don’t need your permission to enter it,” Marcus stated
snappishly.
For a while, Millie was at a loss for words.
As soon as she had straightened her nightgown, Marcus walked up to her with
imposing steps and a grim expression on his face. When he stopped in front of
her, his authoritative presence immediately enveloped her.
Millie's heart began pounding wildly in her chest. She took a step back, and her
grip on the bottle of hand cream tightened.
“What are you doing?”
“What did you mean by what you said in the study?” Marcus asked sternly.
Millie's eyes widened, shocked by the question and anxious as Marcus's
towering frame closed in on her. He would not hurt her over something so trivial,
would he?
“What I said in the study?”
What she said earlier was not hard to understand. Was Marcus doing this to

so sure about that?” Marcus's voice dipped alluringly.
Millie wrinkled her brows when she realized he must feel humiliated by her
words.

Suddenly, Marcus's face took on a peculiar expression. His alluring lips went
closer to Millie’s dazzling white neck, and as they did, she felt a tingling sensation
all throughout her body.
As Marcus got closer, Millie caught a whiff of the minty scent coming from his
body.

frantic.
She moved to get away from him, but Marcus grabbed her hands, effectively
immobilizing her.
“Get away from me!” Millie was genuinely panicking now.
