Chapter: 144

Seconds later, Marcus approached her and placed a hand on her shoulder to calm her down. “Don’t worry,” he said firmly. “I’m here to save you.”

When he got no response, Marcus gently called, “Millie?” Finally, the familiar voice registered in Millie’s brain. It was Marcus.

Millie lifted her head slowly and found Marcus standing before her, real and alive. A tear rolled down her cheek as she asked, “Are you also dead?”

Her question left Marcus speechless for a moment.

“That’s too bad.” Millie sobbed as her eyes welled up with tears. The image of the knife being so close to her stomach still haunted her, making it feel like she could not breathe.

It was the first tMarcus had ever seen Millie cry, and as he watched the tears fall from her eyes, he felt an invisible hand squeeze his heart. The woman, who was usually so lively, was crying her heart out right now. She looked vulnerable and in need of comfort.

Marcus did not know what to do to ease her anxiety. He felt like he had failed to protect her as he watched her cry.

“It’s all right,” he said softly as he wiped away her tears. “Derek stepped in and stopped him before that bastard could stab you. You're still alive.”

“T... ’m not dead yet? Really?”

Millie looked up at Marcus with wide eyes.

The man nodded.

A few seconds later, Millie sprung to her feet, suddenly full of pep.

Marcus stood up as well. Then, Millie threw herself into his arms and wrapped hers around his neck. “I'm not dead! Oh, thank goodness!”

Millie hugged Marcus closer, sharing her relief with him at having made it through the ordeal.

She had been through a lot since she was a kid, but nothing as terrible as this.

When she caught sight of the knife pressed against her stomach earlier, her body went completely numb, and she nearly passed out.

It was a miracle that she survived such a horrible experience. As Millie held on to him, Marcus’ brain malfunctioned a bit.

He was currently in a weak state. He had just been given an antidote, but his body was still recovering. Despite this, he did not move away and welcomed Millie's embrace.

He had never let a woman get so close to him like this.
