She had no other choice. All she wanted was for Marcus to get better.
She didn’t believe that there was no cure. Bruce had to know something.
The light in Bruce’s eyes faded with disappointment. Of course, Millie only asked him out for Marcus. She was even willing to point a gun at his head for Marcus.
“Don’t waste your time, Millie. There is no cure.”

“Don’t push me, Bruce. I will really shoot.”
“I will…”
“Let go of me, Bruce. Are you crazy? Let go of me…”
The trigger was pulled. The bullet hit the round table, leaving a hole in it.
