At that moment, through the surging crowd, Nancy spotted a tall figure. Was she
hallucinating? Why was Marcus here? But no, she saw clearly. It was Marcus,
and he was approaching.
In a hushed tone, Nancy warned, “Rhea, call them off. Marcus is on his way.”
“What?”
Rhea’s panic was palpable as she spotted Marcus too and quickly ordered
“Stop. Let's leave.”
One of their crew didn’t hear her and lunged for Millie, who swung the chair in his
direction.
A sudden scream broke the tension.
Holding her hand, struck by Millie, Nancy wailed, “My hand! It's hurting. I think it's
broken.”
Staring at the source of the scream, Millie’s shock was palpable. Why had she hit
Nancy?
“Mr. Thomas, Millie struck my hand with a chair. It's in agony, and I believe it's
broken.”
Nancy gazed at Marcus with tear-filled eyes, her expression pitiable.
And why had Marcus come?

Marcus’ eyes swept the scene before settling on Millie, still clutching the chair.
“Millie, how could you be so cruel?” Nancy wailed.
“I'm preparing the jewelry for the wedding. As a designer, my hands are my
livelihood. Are you so envious that you would do this? If my hands are broken, I
can't design anymore. You've shown such malice.”
Millie remained composed. “You were the one rushing at me. I had no intention of
striking you.”
The moment Marcus appeared, she understood Nancy's game. Nancy intended
to frame her, to make Marcus see her as vindictive.
