Chapter: 33 Bruce pointed at a pile of stones and continued, “These stones represent Marcus too. Ican kick farther than you.”
“You wish! | can kick farther than you.” At the satisfying sound of another stone plunging into the lake, Millie clapped her hands, her face beaming with joy.
“Now it’s my tum.” “Hahaha! Hahahaha! | can kick farther than you...” At this point, Millie and Bruce had engaged in a playful contest of kicking stones, or versions of Marcus, into the lake.
While they had fun, Marcus bristled with anger not far away. His body tensed up and his face darkened. It took all of his self- control to be able to stay in place.
“Mr. Thomas, is everything okay?”
Derek asked him upon seeing the expression on Marcus’ face. He stifled his laughter and tried to act as serious as he could. Millie was one of a kind. She was literally comparing Marcus to a stone. Hilarious! Not only did she call it smelly and hard, but she went as far as kicking it and stepping hard on it.
“Stop, we can stop now. I’m tired.” Millie clapped her hands and called it to a stop. ‘They had gone for about a dozen rounds or so.
When she turned to look at Bruce, she was surprised to find him much closer to her. And the way he was looking at her... What was that about?
Meanwhile, Bruce was fascinated by the upper half of Millie’s face that was exposed. Her skin was so tender and smooth. Her eyes were so beautiful that he could get lost in them.
Millie stepped back uncomfortably and felt her face.
“Why are you looking at me like that? Is there dirt on my face?”
That brought his attention to her beautiful hands. It was as though a spell had been. cast on him. His gaze shifted to Millie’s slender, slightly tilted neck that seemed to glow under the sunlight.
Bruce grinned at her, his white teeth on full display.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
“Millie, everyone says you're ugly. But I'll like to see what you really look like. Can you take off your mask?”
Something told him that Millie was anything but ugly.
Millie frowned when Bruce kept coming closer. She had moved back until she was now pressed against the railing, with no way to escape.
She narrowed her eyes at him and raised a hand to stop him. “Don’t come any closer. Do you really want to see it?”
