NovelEnglishChapter: 588
Did they really think Marcus would give them that much money to save her? After what happened with Celeste, Millie was sure that he would not care even if his wife died.
No wonder the kidnappers wanted her to switch places with Lois. They apparently placed a higher value on Millie’s identity than the other woman.
“You’re wrong. He doesn’t love me, and the Thomases have already drivenout of the family. Now, letgo. Marcus won’t give you a dime. You’re just wasting your time.”

A mocking grin spread across Millie’s face.
“That’s right.”
“That can’t be true. She’s lying to us. Find Marcus’ number and call him!”
Marcus and his friends hopped from one hangout spot to the next. They drove their flashy sports cars to the peak of the mountain for a race.
Next, they went to a karaoke bar and ordered sdrinks.
Everyone there noticed something was off about Marcus. He had never been this eager to hang out with people before.
When he was in the race earlier, he was going so fast that it seemed as if he were trying to reach hell.
When they got to the bar, he went off by himself to smoke and drink. Thankfully, he had a high alcohol tolerance, or else he would have been drunk by now with how much he had consumed.
By the the finished a second box of cigarettes, the whole private room was engulfed with smoke, and everyone in it was coughing every now and then.

Shocked, everyone exchanges glances. They finally knew the cause of Marcus’ unusual behavior. It was because he was fighting with his wife. He probably went out to cool off.
No one dared to utter Millie’s nagain after that.
Once they got tired of singing, the group of people went to the casino next.
In the hallway, Marcus took a call from a business partner. Derek waited for the call to finish before double-checking Marcus’ schedule for tomorrow and asking, “Mr. Thomas, are you still going to meet Leon tomorrow?”
He was not sure if Marcus would want to meet Leon to talk about Millie’s grandmother’s operation, given how tense Marcus’ relationship with Millie was right now.
It took a while, but Marcus eventually gave a nod.
“Follow through the original plan.”
When Brock drugged him last time, Millie put his clothes on without hesitation to distract the people who were chasing him. Marcus was just returning the favor.
