Chapter 316

Suddenly, Marcus’ phone, resting on the bed, sprang to life. Both Marcus and Millie turned their attention to the device. Marcus released Millie’s arm after a prolonged ring and went to answer the call.

The conversation remained unknown, but with each passing moment, Marcus’ brows furrowed increasingly.

Millie felt a wave of relief wash over her. She sank into the nearest chair.

But the mysterious phone call began to trouble her. Had something transpired? Was it related to her? Marcus kept throwing glances her way while on the phone. Look, he was doing it again.

Marcus cast a glance at Millie, his eyes narrowing, as he asked the person on the other end, “Did she truly state that?”

Millie’s lips quivered at the revelation. The previous call was from Rylie. That blabbermouth—how had she informed Marcus so promptly?

Marcus straightened up, his hand by his side unconsciously clenching into a fist. He had an overwhelming urge to release his frustration through a vigorous boxing match.

He was caught off guard when Rylie mentioned this, reminding him to be more attentive to Millie and dissuade her from reckless ideas.

This woman was contemplating divorcing him!
