Marcus felt a sense of contentment. When had Millie grown so gentle? Since the encounter with the divorce agreement, she had consistently treated him with coldness.

Her heart raced, and she quickly shifted her gaze to the lotus pond.
Marcus chuckled. It seemed like saying sweet things wasn’t as awkward as he thought.
