Chapter: 659 Watching the affection in Leon's eyes, Millie picked up her fork, but found herself without an appetite.
She marveled at Fiona’s composure. Even in the face of a witness, Fiona displayed no guilt. Was she not afraid that Millie would reveal what she had seen earlier that afternoon?
Due to being distracted, Millie didn’t get to eat anything.
“Millie, | heard Mrs. Thomas call you by that name. May | call you that too?” Fiona asked, her tone polite. Millie looked up and nodded faintly.
“Why don’t you call your husband and ask him to join us?” Fiona suggested.
Millie shook her head, explaining, “He has an appointment with a businessman tonight. He’s dining out.”

He noticed nothing. Leon, too, glanced at Millie, a hint of doubt in his eyes. He sensed that something was troubling her.

Fiona’s calm facade faltered. Millie still wanted to expose her. After hearing Millie’s words, Leon’s eyes fixed on Fiona with an intense, probing look.
Fiona managed to keep her composure and explained, “That was a colleague from the factory. He wanted to know if | was going to work with him. | told him that I’ve resigned and won't be going there anymore. | don’t think he’ll botheragain.”
“| see,” Millie responded, a hint of tension in her voice. “I’m sorry, but | just remembered that a friend askedout for dinner. She must be waiting forat the restaurant. | have to go now. Enjoy your dinner.”
With that, she put down her fork since she couldn’t bring herself to have a bite of the food.
After exiting Fiona’s room, she tiptoed back to her own quarters and prepared herself a bowl of noodles.
