As his eyes grew colder, Shera secretly felt a sense of accomplishment, believing that her decision to bring this to his attention was the right one.
Raising his gaze, Marcus looked at Shera coldly and inquired, “Did you follow Millie?”
Shera was caught off guard by Marcus’ primary concern.
She swiftly countered, “No, I didn’t tail her. These pictures were sent to me. I received them and rushed to share them with you.”
Marcus let out a disdainful snort. He quickly picked up on Shera’s subtle tell, her eyes flicking to the left, revealing her deception.
“Return to your room and get some rest. As for the photos, I will address this with Millie myself.”
“Doesn’t it bother you? She seems to have some sort of ambiguous connection with another guy.”
Marcus let out a disdainful, icy snort. Even though Shera promptly refuted any accusations, Marcus retorted with an air of indifference, “I don’t need to give you an answer.”

Shera found herself taken aback, staring at him in disbelief.
Under his cold and oppressive gaze, she turned away, her confidence waning.
As she exited, she couldn’t help but feel somewhat foolish. Instead of gaining the upper hand, she had experienced a double setback. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Now, her only hope was that Ryan had taken action to remove the child from Millie’s womb, offering her some semblance of solace.
Returning to her room, Shera found Lily already asleep.
Sitting by the bedside, she sent a message to Ryan, “Have you done harm to Millie?”
Ten minutes later, Ryan replied, “Harlan intervened and saved her.”
Clutching her phone tightly, she felt a surge of anger welling up.
Tonight, humiliation and fury coursed through her veins. Sleep was out of the question, and she had no intentions of granting Millie a peaceful night’s rest either.
So she composed a message on her phone, “As scheduled, the bomb will activate by 3 in the morning.”
She sent the ominous message to Millie’s phone.
Meanwhile, at the Cloud Villa, Millie had just finished her bedtime routine, including drying her hair. She planned to get a good night’s sleep and take the pregnancy test in the morning. That was when her phone chimed with Shera’s message.
She opened the message, and its contents left her stunned. She was rendered speechless.
There was no doubt that only Shera could be behind this message.
It effectively disrupted Millie’s state of mind.
Despite being fairly confident that Shera wouldn’t follow through with the threat to detonate the bomb, receiving the message left Millie feeling perturbed.
