Chapter 64
Her face was very smooth, completely free of any bump or roughness. It didn’t feel like a scarred face. He had felt her face from the right side to the left side, feeling nothing but smoothness all the way.
Millie suddenly got nervous. Shit! She totally forgot that the surface of the scar had to feel uneven. She hoped he didn’t figure anything out.
“Where is your scar?” Marcus asked harshly, bringing her fear to life.

Her made-up story didn’t seem to convince Marcus. “Moisturizer? Can it do that much?” he asked.
“Of course, it can. | have been using it since | was a child. It’s only normal that after using so much of it for such a long time, it would cause a drastic change to the scar.
You may not feel it, but the scar is still there, and it is very ugly indeed.”
Millie hoped that Marcus would believe her this tand let it go. Seeing that he was thinking about it, she used the opportunity to slip away.
However, Marcus held her back before she could take a step.
Then, he pulled her back into his arms.
“Why are you running away as if I’m a sort of human eater. Are you playing hard to get?” Playing hard to get? Millie looked at him in confusion.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs she struggled to get out of his arms, Marcus suddenly grabbed Millie by the breast. However, it seemed that he hadn’t realized it yet. He just knew that whatever he was touching felt strange. He even squeezed it and tried to feel it. It felt so soft under his palm that Marcus went stiff.
“What is that? Why does it feel so soft?”
Millie looked down at the hand that seemed to have gotten comfortable on her. Her face began to heat up. “Take off your hand. You can’t touchany way you want!” Millie snapped, slapping his hand away.
Marcus was confused at her reaction, then it dawned on him. His hand was on her breast. No wonder it felt so soft and squeezable. It was even better on someone as skinny as her.
They both fell silent after that, both feeling embarrassed. It was so silent that a pin would have been heard if it fell. While Marcus thought of how soft her breast felt, Millie was struggling to keep her anger bottled up.
“Bastard!” she yelled and darted to the sofa before he could stop her. She lay down quickly, and pulled the quilt over her angry head.
