Chapter 58
Chapter: 58
Slowly, Marcus’s hand moved towards Millie's mask. Before taking it off, he
paused for a moment to prepare himself mentally. He had to see her face for
himself. She was his wife after all.
As soon as his hand touched her mask, she suddenly raised her head, wrapped
her hands around his neck and kissed his lips.
Marcus's eyes went wide open in shock.
Even through her thin mask, he could still feel the warmth and softness of her
lips.
The kiss didn’t last more than two seconds before she fell back to his lap and
blinked several times, gazing at the handsome face above her.
She was still very unconscious, unaware of the fact that she just kissed him.
From the driver's seat, Ethan saw what happened through the rearview mirror.
He was so shocked that he couldn’t look away for a moment.
Then, he came to and looked at the road ahead of him, pretending not to have
seen a thing.
The next morning, Millie woke up feeling a little lightheaded. As she sat up, the
blanket slipped off her body. Then, she realized something was not right. She
was not lying on the sofa but rather on a huge, comfy bed.
Additionally, there was a blanket on the sofa, indicating that it had been used as
a bed. Millie’s eyes widened when she realized that Marcus must have slept on
it.
Seriously, what happened last night?
With her mind whirling with questions, she grabbed her phone to see that Grace
had sent her a message.
“Millie, have you woken up? Does your head hurt? Anyway, I want to thank you
for what you did last night. You were really brave. In the future, I promise to
protect you, too, if you get into trouble.”
Millie massaged her temples before typing a response. “How did I go home last
night?”
“You don't remember? You don’t know that Marcus carried you to his car?”
Millie rubbed her eyes, convinced that she had read the message incorrectly.
“Did you just say that Marcus carried me to his car last night? Are you sure?
Maybe you were seeing things,” Millie replied.

“Yes, I'm sure. I saw him carry you to
his car with my own eyes. Your
husband is amazing, Millie. I think
he’s a decent person. You might have
rescued me yesterday, but without
his assistance, you would've been in
a very precarious position.” The

Still confused about why Marcus had
carried her to the car the night before,
Millie shook her head. From what she
knew of him, she was sure he would
leave her in that room while she was
unconscious. The content is on

At first, she did not know what he
was thinking or why he did what he
did. Then, she realized that his
actions might have been motivated
by his need to save face in front of
others and her own inebriation. The

After thinking about it for a while, Millie concluded that what he did was the best
choice for both of them.
Millie ended her conversation with Grace, then went to have breakfast.
