Chapter 16
Chapter: 16
This time, it was Rhea’s face that went pale.
“Rhea, you were with Marcus last night? Didn't I tell you...”
Celeste abruptly stopped talking, causing Millie to become curious. What did she
tell Rhea?
“No, that’s not what happened, Mrs. Thomas. She just made that up. I never
asked Marcus to buy me a bag. I simply said that the bag looked nice and asked
him if it would look good on me. It was her who told Marcus to buy bags for us,”
Rhea hurriedly explained. ©
Celeste nodded in understanding.
“That's good to hear. Marcus has a lot of work to do in the daytime, so avoid
bothering him at night. I don’t care about the bags. If you want anything, just tell
me, and I'll get it for you. Just don't disturb Marcus at night.”
“Okay. I'll keep that in mind,” Rhea replied.
She then whipped her head and sent Millie a malicious glare.
Celeste also tumed to Millie.
“Listen here, woman. You're not allowed to tell anyone that you're Marcus's wife.
If you breathe a word about it, Ill never forgive you. I'll look for someone else to
be my son’s wife. You don’t deserve him.”
Instead of responding to Celeste’s threat, Millie got to her feet.
“I'll just go outside for a stroll.”
As predicted, as soon as she stood up, Rhea’s foot showed signs of
restlessness, priming itself to trip her once again. Millie smirked inwardly.
Rhea should not blame her for what she was about to do. She started it, after all.
Asecond later, a scream echoed in the living room. “Ahh!”
Millie stepped forward while staring straight ahead, but her foot managed to land
squarely on Rhea’s.
“You stepped on my foot, you bitch!” Rhea snarled.

“Sorry, 1 wasn't looking where I was
going. Does it hurt?” When Millie
stepped back, a footprint mark was
already forming on Rhea's instep.

“It hurts, Mrs. Thomas! I think she did
that on purpose. She's upset because
I told you about her asking Marcus to
buy her a bag. Fine, I'll just keep quiet

Ow, it hurts so much. I think my foot is swollen now,” Rhea whined.
When she noticed Marcus approaching, she stooped lower to show him how hurt
she was.
