Marcus’ first thought was that something bad had happened to Millie, which made him unconsciously ball up his hands into fists. Then, Millie emerged from the bedroom and made her way to the stairwell, carrying on as if nothing had happened.

Gianna, often mindful of decorum, seemed to have lost her usual control in the presence of an important guest, much to Denby’s displeasure.

“Dad, there’s something you should know. My sister’s actions are nothing short of foolish. She secretly added a medicine to her own tea, rendering herself infertile.
