Chapter: 183 “Undressing,” Marcus calmly responded after a brief pause. “I’m naturally going to shower.”
Well, showering wasn’t anything unusual. She was accustomed to it at home anyway. Methodically, Marcus disrobed and ambled toward the bathroom.
Wait, was he intending to bathe now? An inkling of misgiving promptly struck Millie. “Hold on, you can’t shower right now. If they show up now, we’re doomed.”
The act of bathing is when one’s guard is at its lowest. Casting a nervous glance at the window, Millie’s heart raced. She couldn't predict their arrival.
“If they're here, you hold them off.” “Me? You must be joking. How am | to fend them off? | don’t even exercise.”
Utterly perplexed, Millie couldn’t comprehend how she could stand her ground. She was so feeble that even a mere shove from them would send her tumbling.
Pivoting, Marcus graced Millie with a smirk and asked, “Why such humility all of a sudden? You've got the gift of gab. You can berate them out of here without my assistance.”
Millie was rendered speechless.
At that moment, she finally grasped Marcus’ sarcasm. Yet she remained defiant. When had she become so verbose?
Every time, what she expressed was rational, right?

Incensed by Marcus’ disregard, Millie watched as he shed his clothes, exposing his broad back, muscular shoulders, and strong waist. His robust physique left her awestruck.
Wordlessly, Millie swallowed, berating herself for being so shallow.
No wonder Rhea was so persistent in pursuing him. He possessed such an impressive build.
Even worse, the bathroom’s glass was see-through, with an ornamental ring in the center obscuring the critical areas. From her vantage point, Millie could take in the sight of his powerful legs, broad back, and enticing waistline.
Millie swallowed once more, her gaze transfixed on the droplets of water trailing down Marcus’ neck.
An inner voice urged her to avert her eyes. But amidst the intense scene, she prided herself on maintaining her composure, and to her credit, she managed to do so.
Caught in the act of showering, Marcus discovered Millie stealing glances at him. He appeared startled, then burst into a grin.
Oh... Overcome with embarrassment, Millie swiftly buried her face in the quilt.
