SWNOVELS Chapter 1294
“This time, she aimed a gun at me. If it had been anyone else, she might not
have escaped unscathed!”
Millie's actions had taken Bruce by surprise. Guns were typically reserved for dire
situations and not casually handled.
“Where are you? Give me the address. Now!” Marcus exclaimed.
“She should be back at the company by now. In the future, make sure to keep
these things well-hidden and away from her,” Bruce answered.
After ending the call, Marcus fell into deep thought. How had Millie discovered
the M92 he had stashed at home, and why had she pointed it at Bruce? Her
courage was truly remarkable.
If the gun had accidentally discharged and harmed her, he would have been
plagued with regret.
“Mr. Thomas, is something the matter?” Trenton inquired, noticing that Marcus
was distracted.

“Fetch Millie for me,” Marcus instructed.
Millie clutched her handbag tightly as she made her way back to the design
department. Just as she entered, she ran into Trenton.
“Mr. Thomas would Like to see you.”
“Okay.”
Millie placed her bag in the drawer, intending to lock it and discreetly return the
gun to its original location when she got home in the evening. However, the lock
suddenly malfunctioned. Anxious about leaving her bag unattended at her office
desk, she decided to bring it along when meeting Marcus.
Millie entered the CEO's office to find Marcus had set aside his work and was
staring at her.
“Where did you just go?” he asked.
His gaze was piercing and intense, as if she was being interrogated.
Instinctively, she concealed her bag behind her and cast nervous glances around
the room.
“I went out to grab Lunch.”
Though she knew she had just lied to him, she couldn't fathom how daring and
reckless her recent actions had become.

Millie explained, taking a couple of steps back.
Marcus’ gaze remained fixed on her handbag.
“Hold on, what's inside your bag? You seem rather nervous,” he remarked.
