SWNOVELS Chapter 13
Chapter: 13
She took a deep breath and rolled her eyes inwardly. She ran her fingers through
her hair before opening the bottle of hand cream. As she rubbed the cream in her
hands, she pretended that his words did not affect her.
Marcus was still watching her.
“That nasty scar on your face won't go away no matter how well you treat your
hands, stupid woman.”
Millie's fury, which had been ebbing, returned.
“So what if I like taking care of my hands? It makes me happy. What's wrong with
that?”
“That's merely a temporary fix. It doesn't eliminate the issue entirely, which is
your face.”

Marcus was taken aback by her response.
Millie bit her lower lip. She absolutely could not Jet a man she barely knew hurt
her in any way.

see how peaceful and sweet she looked as she slept. It was such a calming
sight.

His mind rushed back to what
happened in the living room when
Millie was about to take her mask off.
Did her face under that mask truly
match the ugliness of her malicious
heart? Every part of her that she
chose to display was beautiful. The

Unable to stop his curiosity, Marcus's hand slowly reached for Millie’s mask.

For some reason, the closer his hand
got, the more wildly it trembled.
When exactly he had become so
indecisive, he had no idea. The

His hand was on Millie’s mask now, poised to remove it in one swift motion. ©
