“Sorry, I was lost in thought about something at the company just now. I wasn’t paying attention,” Marcus said, shaking off his distraction.
“Well, is it really possible for two people to look exactly the sin this world?”
Millie asked.

“Yes, I’ve cacross articles about that. Among billions of people, there are swho aren’t related but look alike. It’s bound to happen,” Marcus responded thoughtfully.
Millie nodded in agreement, remembering articles she had read herself. She recalled a story about two families discovering their children’s uncanny resemblance during atrip.
“By the way, did you have something to tellearlier?” she asked.
“No, let’s get ssleep. I’m a bit worn out.” Marcus deflected, his voice tinged with fatigue.
His original intention was to inform Millie about Lois’ scheming and warn her to be cautious.
Lois’ actions were becoming increasingly dangerous. If her sole intent was to have Fiona impersonate the girl Leon pined for, she wouldn’t have allowed the plot to escalate to the point where Fiona might kill Millie.
Marcus was both shocked and troubled by Millie’s words. An uneasy intuition gnawed at him, suggesting that the individual Leon had been searching for was Millie herself.
However, it seemed that Millie was already aware of Fiona’s transformation into her younger self’s likeness. Yet, she didn’t seem to realize that she was the one Leon sought. What had transpired to lead to this? Had Millie lost her memory of something crucial?

Make sure he only reveals his sexual relationship with Fiona,” he instructed.
Marcus believed that the best outcwould be for the deceptive Fiona to deeply disappoint Leon. This way, Leon could recall Lois’ virtues and finally move on from the girl he was infatuated with.
After ending the call, Marcus returned to the bedroom and gently kissed Millie’s forehead, his mind still racing with thoughts and uncertainties.
Upon awakening the next day, Fiona found Leon’s gaze fixed on her. A shiver rippled through her as his intent scrutiny felt like an unerring probe, penetrating the depths of her concealed truths.
“Isn’t today a busy day for you?”
Leon shifted his position, disengaging his gaze from her.
“l intend to keep you company today.” A protest rose within Fiona. She hastened to divert him.
