Chapter 1106
“Cheers.” Marcus’ gaze lingered upon the bashful beauty nestled in his embrace.
Millie lifted her visage and gently clinked her glass against his.
“Feed me,” he requested playfully.
Halting her motion to retract the glass, Marcus intervened.
Millie’s cheeks flushed with a rosy hue as she nodded, a delighted smile gracing her lips.
Their synchronized movements elevated their arms, each offering the other a taste of wine from their respective glasses.
Subsequent to their shared gesture, Millie’s countenance took on a deeper shade of crimson, prompting her to hide her face within the shelter of his chest.

Resting against the chair’s support, Marcus savored his wine with deliberate slowness.
“Honey, was I truly the first to stir love within you?” she queried, curiosity tinged with a hint of playfulness.
She perceived his aptitude for flirtation with a knowing smile.
“Before you, I hadn’t experienced love. I am rather selective, you see. Meeting you earlier would have been quite fortuitous,” he admitted with a hint of wistfulness.
Pinching her cheek gently, Marcus playfully reassured, “Never doubt your husband’s capabilities. Some things are learned without formal instruction.”
Millie let out a playful grunt of mock displeasure.
“Meeting you earlier? Weren’t you the one who once wished to throttle me?”
“I was misguided. But haven’t I made reparations?” he retorted with a warm smile. Lifting Millie’s chin with a tender touch, he claimed her lips in a gentle kiss.
“Why have you forsaken your hairpin?” he inquired with a trace of curiosity. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Setting aside his glass, Marcus delicately threaded his fingers through her long, straight, ebony hair.
“It’s quite valuable, and I fear losing it, so I’ve kept it safe in my jewelry box,” she explained, her voice tinged with a hint of caution.
“Alright, I’ll wear it later,” she conceded, a hint of acquiescence in her tone.
After their lips parted, Marcus released Millie and said, “Go put on your hairpin, and let’s go out for a walk.”
Millie headed upstairs to fasten her hairpin and then joined Marcus in the car. She had assumed that when he said “go out for a walk,” they would stay nearby. However, as the car drove further and further from home, she realized his plans were more adventurous.
“Where are we going?” she inquired, her curiosity piqued.
“How about hiking?” Marcus proposed.
The idea appealed to Millie. Hiking would be invigorating, allowing them to breathe in the fresh air and clear their minds.
