Chapter 285
Marcus was momentarily taken aback but soon flashed a mischievous smile. “Oh? You're quite the observant one. It seems like you're jealous,” he teased, adding fuel to the fire. Millie’s anger flared, causing her nose to twitch in frustration at his playful response.
“I'm not jealous! Let me tell you, when you criticize others, make sure you're qualified. Your coat’s covering another lady. Your allegations against me reek of double standards, forbidding others from doing what you're doing yourself.”
In an instant, Marcus changed the topi
Millie was shoved into the car like an animal, a big hand pushing her from behind.
Anger surged through her as she tumed around in the car, resentful of Marcus hurrying her without permission. “Get in the car. I'll take you somewhere.”
“Fasten your seatbelt,” Marcus ordered firmly as the door slammed shut.
Without uttering a word, Marcus made his way to the driver’s seat. He swiftly buckled his own seat belt, his actions displaying a sense of urgency.
“Where are we going? It’s so late.” Millie’s voice carried a hint of frustration, her emotions spilling over. She felt like a helpless duck being driven forcefully onto an uncomfortable perch, the urgency of the situation aggravating her irritation.
“You'll find out soon enough,” Marcus replied, his gaze unwaveringly fixed on the road ahead, his mind seemingly focused on their mysterious destination.
With Marcus unwilling to divulge any details, Millie chose to cease her inquiries, opting instead for a contemplative silence. She leaned against the back of her seat, lips pursed in deep thought. The journey continued, and she closed her eyes intermittently, finding solace in brief moments of rest as she wondered what awaited her at the end of this enigmatic ride.
After ten minutes, a deep voice resonated through the car’s interior. “We’re here.” Millie’s eyes fluttered open, revealing a sense of curiosity mingled with uncertainty.
Outside the car, she saw the familiar facade of a hospital.
“Why are we at the hospital?” Millie queried, her tone softened by intrigue.
Last time, Marcus had promised to take Millie to a pleasant place, but the result was far from enjoyable—a bar. This time, they found themselves in a hospital, a place full of viruses, quite the opposite of what Millie had hoped for.
Marcus nodded affirmatively and said, “A friend of mine is here. We're here to visit.”
Millie rubbed her forehead, secretly resolving not to get her hopes too high in the future whenever Marcus mentioned taking her somewhere. It seemed unlikely that it would lead to a fun and delightful experience.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
The two of them walked quietly down the well-lit hospital hallway. Marcus’ long legs and strong aura drew the admiring eyes of the nurses stationed at the nursing desk.
Feeling tired and uncertain about whom they were about to visit, Millie followed Marcus to a VIP ward. Marcus raised his hand and knocked on the door.
