Chapter 1093
“Honey, my phone is missing. Can I use yours?”
“Your phone’s here. Someone found it near the mall and returned it to me.” Marcus procured Millie’s device from his pocket, extending it to her.
With Millie engrossed in a call, Marcus speculated on her intention.
“Considering a call to the authorities?”
Millie affirmed with a nod, “Yes, even if he’s your cousin, his actions have legal consequences.”
In the shadow of that establishment’s existence, a lingering concern surfaced — its potential to ensnare more unsuspecting souls. A magnet for those seeking monetary gains, it bore witness to the duping of countless individuals, an unfortunate reality.
While the timing for police involvement had elapsed given the assailants’ departure, Marcus refrained from sharing this insight.
“Share the details. How were you captured?”
A routine visit to the grocery store was all it took.
A tight grip on the sheet accompanied Millie’s recounting.
“The orchestrator was Nancy. Exiting the grocery store, I detected a persistent follower. As I pivoted to confront them, she swiftly produced a syringe, injecting an unknown substance into my neck.

Darkness swiftly engulfed me. When consciousness returned, I found myself within that confounding space.”
Upon learning this, Marcus’ ire ignited. How audacious of Nancy!
Prior to unearthing the secretive location, suspicion had centered on Bruce as the potential malefactor.
Never had he anticipated that a woman could execute such a malicious and perilous act.
To secure the wedding jewelry, he had temporarily retained her presence within the company. Little did he anticipate her capacity to inflict harm upon Millie.
In retrospect, he should have ensured that this woman vanished into obscurity during their time at the Snow Hotel.
“Do you still wish to involve the police?”
Millie affirmed resolutely, “Yes.”
Despite the potential implication of Leon, her fervent desire remained – to see those wrongdoers face the consequences of their actions. Fortunate enough, she managed to evade their clutches.
Millie engaged with the police, offering a succinct rendition of events. Officers arrived at the hospital to record her statement, while Marcus awaited outside. Omitting details about Leon, Millie’s account focused on the perpetrators’ characteristics.
Somehow, a Lingering sentiment told her that Leon couldn’t possibly be that type of individual.
With the note-taking concluded, the police extended their gratitude to her.Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
