“That aligns perfectly with our speculation,” they whispered, the scandal of the night lighting up their conversation. “Charli mentioned she shone her flashlight on the intruder, only to discover an individual of ghastly countenance, a creature bathed in vulgarity. Clearly, not an individual of good standing.”
“Indeed? Is Charli unscathed? Poor Charli; she’s unattractive, but still attracted the man’s attention. How desperate he must've been!”
“Yes, thankfully, Charli remains unhurt. She mentioned that the moment the monstrous man realized she was awake, he swiftly exited through the window, presumably to invade another room.”

“| fear this odious man might have successfully violated another room and possibly the woman within. You fail to comprehend that the victim would naturally remain silent. Female pride is a peculiar thing; after suffering such an affront, they wouldn’t disclose it. Moreover, revealing such a disgrace would certainly harm their prospects for future relationships.”

Achill crept up Millie’s hand, still clutching her fork. Could the repulsive man from the previous night have sought refuge in her bed?

Marcus’ eyes bore into hers, deep and enigmatic as the night sky, rendering Millie speechless.
“Does the bread possess an excessive dryness? | could fetch you sporridge.”

The man’s face, marred by pustules, mirrored the ugliness of his actions. Even in broad daylight, Millie felt as though she were swarmed by invisible insects crawling all over her. The revulsion was unbearable.
Millie rested her forehead in her hand. What transgressions had she committed in her past life to warrant such an insult in her slumber?
The experience was akin to a lingering nightmare.
Her anger swelled with every passing thought. Overcby rage, Millie slammed her fist on the table, the sound resonating through the room as the cutlery leapt in response.

Anger flared in her chest, and her usually pallid face now flushed a deep shade of crimson. The executives sitting next to her recoiled, their eyes wide with surprise and curiosity.
