Chapter: 37 What was the man talking about? Had he gone mad?

Gemma let out a gasp, her eyes fixed on the large display screen on the wall. She then grabbed Millie’s arm to get her attention and pointed at it.

“This is bad! Look at that.”

On the large screen, the headline was displayed in white font against a red background, and it was accompanied by photos of Millie’s ugly face and Marcus’s handsone. This arrangement made the news easy to read at a glance.

Millie’s eyes grew wide, and the hair on the back of her neck stood up. How was this possible? Who leaked that information to the media? “| didn’t do this,” Millie muttered, still in shock.

“Don't you dare deny it. You’re the one who'll benefit the most from this. Now, everyone knows I’m not crippled, and you’ve jumped to success just by marrying me,” Marcus accused.

Millie pursed her lips as she stared at her unsightly photo on the screen. Seconds later, she felt her blood boiling in indignation. Where Marcus got the idea that she was responsible for this, she had no idea.

She clenched her teeth and asked, “Why would | publicly label myself as ugly and wicked? Do you really think my heart is that strong to degrade myself like this? This is obviously the result of you making too many enemies. You're the one who dragged me into this situation.”

On the other end of the line, Marcus could not believe his ears. “Are you saying that this is my fault?”

“Is it not? What, you can make accusations against me, but | can’t do the sto you? That doesn’t seem fair. We now live ina progressive society that promotes gender equality, which means everyone is expected to be treated fairly. Do you even have proof that this is my doing?”

Millie’s remark was clearly a jab at his autocratic tendencies.

“Do you know what will happen to you if you angereven more, you blasted gremlin?” Marcus growled.

Millie held her ground, ice cream cone in hand.

“Isn’t starvation my punishment for making you angry? You can’t do that now, though. Everyone knows now that I’m your wife. Ifl

die due to starvation, they will know that it’s your fault. If | die, you’ll never be able to get out from under my shadow. If you're fine with that, then go ahead and starveto death.”

Marcus was stunned. He had called to reprimand her, but to his shock, she blamed him right back with considerable vehemence.

“If | find out you're behind this, I'll split you in half,” Marcus threatened. He pinched the bridge of his nose before ending the call, all the while lamenting Millie's excellent reasoning skills.

Derek, who left the office briefly, retummed with another piece of news.

“Mr. Thomas, the residents of Sirius Villa have returned.”
