Chapter: 162
Millie longed to retaliate with words, but to her dismay, she found herself unable to articulate fluently in this constrained position with her chin held captive.
As she opened her mouth, her lips moved akin to a fish blowing bubbles.
“Henceforth, refrain from addressing me in such a manner. Otherwise, | would not object to engaging in the game with you once more. And rest assured, | shall not be lenient.”
Marcus conceded. In their previous encounter with the dice, he had deliberately matched her every roll, teasing her with purpose.
Millie felt as though she had been slapped across the face, her cheeks ablaze with a burning sensation. As the two locked eyes in a deadlock, the sound of camera shutter clicks suddenly emerged from behind. “Tsk tsk tsk, we were expecting to find you both in a slumber, but instead, we stumble upon a clandestine rendezvous.”
Bruce swiped through the photos he had captured on his phone. The seething anger emanating from their furious gazes caused Bruce’s hand to tremble, and he hastily retreated.
“Apologies, apologies. | ought not to have said so. Please continue, but allow me, as your cousin, to observe from the periphery. | seek to acquire some physiological knowledge concerning interactions between men and women,” Bruce impishly remarked.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Millie’s face flushed instantly. She firmly stomped on Marcus’ shoe, pushed away his hand that pinched her chin, and glared at Bruce with a mixture of anger and frustration.
“It is not as you perceive it. You suffer from visual impairment! Erase the photograph.”
Bruce squinted his eyes and taunted, “Millie, Are you blushing?”
His words struck her like a blow to the head, rendering Millie speechless in the face of Bruce’s mocking gaze.
Well, observing his mischievous demeanor, it was clear that reason held no dominion over him. Millie promptly fled. “Delete the photo,” Marcus snapped, his eyes delivering a warning glare to Bruce.
“Why delete it? After all these years, you have finally begun to harbor feelings for someone. | must preserve this endearing image and present it to my grandmother as proof that her beloved grandson is not partaking in a sham marriage. You have indeed fallen in love with Millie.” Bruce grinned mischievously.
“Do not speak nonsense,” Marcus replied sternly.
“Am | speaking nonsense? Oh, Millie’s legs look so...”
Bruce peered at the photo on his phone, with the word “gorgeous” on the cusp of escaping his lips.
In the next instant, Bruce’s limited-edition mobile phone met the harsh impact of the floor, mercilessly crushed beneath the weight of Marcus’ leather-clad foot.
“Oh my goodness! Marcus, is your possessiveness over Millie truly that intense? | had not even finished my sentence. | merely intended to comment on how her legs appeared as though bitten by a mosquito.” Bruce pouted.
“| was merely enlightening her earlier, and it appears that you also possess a garrulous nature. Should | bestow my enlightenment upon you as well?” Marcus retorted coldly.
