Chapter 1315
Millie shivered as if an electric spark had jolted her. She lifted her head, her bright eyes wide with surprise. Boy-girl twins! Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
His response had caught her completely off guard, considering that the odds of having fraternal twins were relatively low.
“You’re incredibly ambitious. Even having twins of the same sex is quite a rarity,” Millie mused, her hand tenderly caressing her belly.
If she could indeed conceive boy-and-girl twins, she’d feel exceptionally fortunate.
“You want to know something even greedier?”
Millie’s captivating eyes sparkled with curiosity.
“What’s that?”
“Making love seven times in one night. Will you doze off from exhaustion halfway through?” he teased.
Millie rolled her eyes and playfully scolded him, “You’re shameless!”
In the evening, Marcus took Millie to that famous bonfire party, and as the firelight flickered, he leaned in and kissed her in a quiet corner.

Before they knew it, their fantastic vacation had flown by, and they found themselves back in Preagend.
But when they reached the Thomas Group, Millie hopped out of the car and realized her shoes had cracked during their adventures. So, she dashed to the mall, snagged a new pair of shoes, and on her
way, she couldn’t resist popping into the pharmacy to grab a pregnancy test kit. This took up some time, but she eventually hurried into the company.
Suddenly, a dull thud echoed through the air.
Millie unintentionally collided with the person standing in her path.
Without delay, Millie offered her sincerest apologies, repeating, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
Turning around, Shera caught sight of the culprit, and a sneer played on her lips.
For several consecutive days, neither Millie nor Marcus made their presence known at the company. When she inquired at Cloud Villa, a servant informed her that the two had embarked on a vacation.
The news incensed her to no end.
Unknown to Millie, Shera had contemplated detonating the small bomb multiple times with the intention of harming her.
Upon realizing that it was Shera, Millie found herself momentarily frozen in her tracks. As the saying goes, when foes lock eyes, a smoldering fire of enmity blazes between them.
“I swear, it felt like I’d stepped right into a pile of dog mess when I spotted you this morning.”
Millie retorted with sudden seriousness, squinting her eyes and wiping the smile off her face, “I had the exact same thought about this morning.” Her response was quick and cutting.
“Crazy!”
“Spiteful.”
