SWNOVELS Chapter 27
Chapter: 27
With her heart pounding in her chest, she tumed around to go to the kitchen.
Thankfully, Marcus stopped her before she could spill the beans earlier.
“If she asks why, tell her that it will taint the reputation of the Thomas family if she
dies due to starvation in our house,” Marcus added with a sneer.
He then turned and walked into the study to attend to some business matters.
Millie was sleeping soundly when a gentle nudge on her shoulder roused her.
She opened her eyes drowsily to see a servant carrying a tray of food next to the
bed.
“Gemma, what's up?” Millie mumbled.
“Madam, please wake up and have some snacks,” Gemma said.
Millie sat up, her stomach still heavy. After the hearty dinner she had, she was
still too full to eat anything.
Gemma gave the door a quick peek before whispering, “Madam, you have to eat
something. All of us will be doomed if Sir Marcus finds out that you already had
dinner.”
Millie examined the food on the tray with disinterest.
Then, she remembered she was not supposed to eat unless she apologized. She
had not done that, so why was she being fed now?
“Did Marcus ask you to prepare this?” Millie asked in disbelief.
“Yes,” Gemma confirmed.
Still puzzled, Millie inquired, “What's with his sudden kindness?”
“sir Marcus said that if you died of hunger in this house, it would taint the
reputation of the Thomas family,” Gemma answered.
An unimpressed look crossed Millie's face.
She should have known better than to think that the man was being nice to her.
An hour later, Gemma retumed to pick up the dishes.

She was hunched over the desk while
she worked on the brooch'’s design.
She looked quite feminine in her light
pink pajamas and the way her long,
silky hair cascaded down her back.
