From a distance, she could see that the woman was stunning. With hostility in her stride, she assumed Millie was one of Harlan’s women.

“Who are you? Who let you in?”

Millie stopped, her eyes narrowing at the girl. This must be the woman Grace had mentioned-Marcus’ mistress!

“Who are you?”

Mavis’ chin lifted.

“I’m the hostess of this villa. He bought it for me, and I’m the owner.”

Millie’s eyes were drawn to the Bentley parked nearby. It was indeed the car Marcus had driven that morning.

Her fists clenched involuntarily, a bitter realization settling within her.

“Look at you, so naive. You’ve never ridden in a Bentley, have you?”

Mavis taunted.

“He takes me out every night, and we’ve even shared kisses in that car.”

Though Millie’s heart ached, she held her emotions in check. Her sole focus now was to see Marcus. She strode past Mavis, entering the villa.

Had she fallen for the wrong person? She had committed herself to loving Marcus, only to feel this betrayal!

The villa’s interior was immaculate, its reflections dancing on the spotless floors. Its decor was as elegant as that of Cloud Villa.

Millie’s heart ached with the sharp pain of betrayal.

She thought of her mother and the agony she must have felt at that time.

“Miss, who are you looking for?” a servant inquired, noticing Millie’s angered approach.

“Catch her and throw her out!” Mavis ordered, her voice shrill.

The two servants exchanged uncertain glances, unsure of what to do.

Should they obey Mavis? Harlan didn’t seem fond of her, and they felt that he treated them with more respect than to her.

As the servants hesitated, Mavis’ anger mounted, yet she knew she lacked the authority to command them.

“I know he’s here. Let him come out to see me. I won’t leave unless I see him,” Millie snorted, her voice full of contempt.

What a coward Marcus was.

Observing Millie’s stubbornness, Mavis paused and then smirked.
