Chapter 1360
Millie felt her entire body aching and weak, and even speaking felt like an added
effort.
“I'LL take a short nap. Wake me in ten minutes. I'll walk on my own.”
“Alright.”
Hardly had Marcus finished speaking when he sensed Millie quietly settling on
his back.
When Millie regained consciousness, she found herself beneath a concrete
ceiling. Where was she?
She turned her head to the side and spotted an elderly woman in the room,
sorting through clothes. She appeared to be in her sixties or seventies, her
temple hair pure white.
“Excuse me, ma'am. Can you tell me where I am?”
Millie touched her forehead and slowly sat up, realizing her stomachache had
lessened.
The elderly woman put down the clothes and offered a kind smile.
“Miss, you're awake. You're in my home.”
Millie rose from the bed and bent down to slip on her shoes.
“Thank you for letting me stay. Where are the others who were with me?”
She had only intended to rest on Marcus’ back for a brief ten-minute respite.
How had she ended up here after opening her eyes?
“They're in the yard outside,” the elderly woman responded.

“In that case, I'll go find them,” Millie said.
As she exited the bedroom, Millie noticed a restroom along the corridor and
paused.
Oh no, hadn't her period started? She hoped she hadn't soiled the hostess’s bed.
Millie swiftly retraced her steps and addressed the elderly woman, “Excuse me,
ma'am. I need to use the restroom.”
The elderly woman waved her hand and said, “Of course, dear, feel free to use
it.”
Millie rushed to the restroom and removed her pants. Fortunately, she discovered
only a small, dried bloodstain on her underwear.
Upon careful examination, she found no traces of blood on her pants.
Millie spotted a blow dryer hanging nearby. She decided to take off her
underwear, wet the bloodstain, vigorously rub it to remove the blood, and then
use the blow dryer to dry it before putting it back on.
Millie returned to the yard. When Trenton spotted her approaching, he stepped
aside to give them space.
Marcus’ stern and handsome countenance softened, and a gentle smile graced
his lips.
“When did you wake up?”
“It's been around twenty minutes. Didn't I request that you wake me in ten
minutes? Why didn’t you?”
Millie had taken a glance around and observed the flat surroundings with
mountains in the backdrop. They had evidently made it out.
Marcus had carried her on his back along the mountain path, which must have
been quite exhausting for him.
Marcus lightly pinched her now slightly revitalized cheek.
“At Tea Mount, weren't you looking for a way to get me to carry you? Now that
I've been carrying you a bit longer, aren't you satisfied?”

“Well, it's not quite the same as now,” Millie responded, but reminiscing about
that moment brought a hint of sweetness to her.
“Is your stomach still giving you trouble?” Marcus inquired, his gaze shifting to
her flat abdomen.
Millie smiled warmly and replied, “Much better now.”
At that moment, Marcus took her hand and guided her into the room. “Come
inside with me.”
