Millie knew Marcus wouldn’t let her off the hook so easily. She put down the magazine, took a step back, and offered a plea for mercy.

“Honey.”

Cornered by his tall figure, Millie found herself pressed against the wall. Marcus gently tilted her chin with a finger, their eyes locking.

“Callinghoney won’t work now.”

Her earlier act had caused him immense stress. He even contemplated canceling the event due to his inability to bear witnessing her tears.

In his business dealings, he faced sophisticated executives and had to be perpetually on guard to avoid manipulation. During his return journey, he learned that she had been pursued by Humphrey, and concern had gnawed at him the whole way back.

Yet Millie seemed determined to make him fret over her.

Millie’s lips quivered, and she looked at Marcus with an imploring gaze.

“Honey, I didn’t intend to deceive you.”

Marcus arched an eyebrow, his hand beneath her chin exerting gentle pressure.

“Oh, you didn’t intend to deceive me? Then why stage a performance this morning that leftworried and sick?”

Slowly, Marcus’s hand slid down Millie’s back, his grip tightening.

Millie winced and implored, “Honey, you’re hurting me. Don’t you loveanymore?”

Rather than releasing his hold, Marcus increased the pressure.

“Feeling wronged? When I saw your tears, my heart ached.”

Millie, an accomplished designer, knew she would outshine Nancy. Yet she intentionally portrayed herself as pitiable in his presence, invoking his concern.

Evidently, she did so intentionally.

“Honey, I apologize. I truly acknowledge my mistake. I realize you’re exhausted, and I caused you undue worry. I promise not to repeat it.”

In a sugary tone, Millie sought to cajole him.

Marcus maintained his hold on her chin, unyielding. Millie shivered under his touch, her endurance waning.

“I told you, it’s too late for apologies!”

This woman had managed to secure the presence of the director from the largest museum. How many hidden talents and secrets did she possess that he remained unaware of?

As the pressure on her buttocks increased, Millie felt a mix of embarrassment and bashfulness. Yet, she refrained from showing any temper and instead looked up at him with a pitiful gaze.
