Burning Passion: Love Never Die

Though he knew her feet were perfectly fine, he pretended to consider her
request, but didn’t immediately consent.
“Can I, honey?” Millie asked, her voice softer still.
This time, Marcus agreed without hesitation, “If you want me to carry you, how
could I refuse? Come on up.”
Taking a couple of steps, Marcus bent slightly, allowing Millie to climb onto his
back.
As she settled herself there, Millie's arms wrapped around his neck, and she
smiled, a secretive expression playing on her face. The feeling of his strong back
beneath her fingers was both secure and blissful.
“What did you mean by what you just said?” Millie asked after they'd gone a few
paces, tucking her hair behind her ear.
“What?” “Just as you said, “how could I refuse to carry you?"
Millie's tone was tinged with displeasure. She wasn't unreasonable. If Marcus
truly didn’t want to carry her, she would walk without complaint.
As soon as Millie finished her question, Marcus’ laughter filled the air.
“I'm afraid if I don’t carry you now, you might be reluctant to let me later.”

“What do you mean?” Millie's confusion deepened.
Marcus remained silent, refusing to answer no matter how persistently Millie
questioned him.
After descending from the mountain, they arrived at the hotel that Kai had
reserved for them.
Stepping out of the bathroom, Millie was guided by Marcus towards the bed,
where he tenderly kissed her lips.
Feeling weary, Millie gently pushed him away and murmured, “I'm too tired. Let's
just sleep.”
She found herself wondering about Marcus’ boundless energy. Didn't he need
rest too? The idea of waking with a sore back the next day wasn't appealing to
her.
With their foreheads touching, Marcus spoke softly.
“Millie, nothing comes without a price. When you asked me to carry you down the
mountain today, I thought you might owe me something in return.”
A wave of regret washed over Millie, and she finally understood Marcus *
concern earlier on the mountain. Depleted and powerless, she could only watch
as he began to undress her.
The following day, Marcus and Millie bid farewell to Kai.
“Why are you leaving so early? Stay a little longer,” Kai urged, still waiting for an
answer regarding financing.
“I'LL hold a special meeting to discuss the development of the Tea Mount when I
return. If there's any progress, I'll inform you, Mr. Bryant,” Marcus reassured him,
Kai hesitated before nodding.
“Okay.”
The couple got in the car and headed back to Preagend, leaving the Tea Mount
behind.
During the Lengthy journey, Millie drifted into sleep. Upon waking, she
discovered the car had stopped at the entrance of Preagend Hospital, with
Marcus nowhere in sight.
Confused, she exited the car and spotted Marcus quickly making his way to the
hospital gate.
Curiosity getting the better of her, Millie followed. Marcus reached a ward and
entered. The ward was occupied by Darin.
Upon seeing Marcus, Darin’s eyes widened in surprise, and a chill settled over
the already cold room,
What was Marcus doing here? Did he feel the need to personally deal with
Darin? These thoughts flashed through Darin’s mind as he stared at Marcus.
Marcus’ eyes were fixed on the man in the bed, his expression icy.

Darin was left without words.
Though he was in immense pain, he still couldn't bring himself to end his life.
In the face of existence, people often relent.
With confusion in his eyes, Darin asked Marcus, “So what brings you here
exactly?”
