Chapter 1312
Millie cried out, “What’s the matter?”
Had she accidentally hurt him? Her anxiety surged, and she even jumped to her feet.
Supporting his face, Marcus responded, “When you cry, my wound hurts a lot. But if you smile, the pain magically vanishes.”
Millie soon realized that he was teasing her intentionally. As her tense heart eased, she couldn’t help but shoot him a playful glare.
“Are you really in the mood to joke around?”
Following the disinfection of the wound, Millie meticulously got some contents of the brown bottle and sprinkled the powder onto the injured area.
After the meticulous application of powder and the skillful bandaging, Millie’s eyes displayed a mixture of emotions, and her complexion transformed from flushed to pale.
Marcus, as if reading her mind, quipped, “Do you find it awkward to say that?”

Summoning her courage, Millie replied, “Well, you need to be more careful from now on. Don’t engage in any overly strenuous activities.”
Leaning in closer, Marcus whispered in her ear, “Such as?”
Millie turned her flushed face aside and said, “Don’t play innocent.
You understand what I’m getting at.”
With a playful smile, Marcus asked, “Do you have the ability to sing?” Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Singing? You want to hear me sing?”
Millie was puzzled. No one had ever requested her to sing a song before, it was an unusual and unique request.
Marcus’s eyes held a tender gleam.
“Yes, I’d love to hear you sing. I’m sure it’ll be beautiful.”
Millie had a light and bright voice, which suggested that she was likely a natural singer.
Millie felt somewhat embarrassed. She rarely sang in front of others and was quite shy about it.
She was more accustomed to designing jewelry. She wondered why he didn’t request that she create a special jewelry piece.
“Then, let me give it a try. What kind of songs would you like to hear?”
“Anything you choose will be perfect,” Marcus stated, showing no particular preference.
Millie activated her phone and selected a song. With one hand gently touching her chin, she gazed out of the wooden window at the golden sunset reflecting on the blue sea, creating a romantic and sweet atmosphere.
“I’ll sing ‘Sweet’.”
