Chapter 65
Left alone in the dark, Marcus held out his hand as if to grab her, then brought it
back and let it fall to his side.
Early in the moming, Bria stopped under the staircase before looking around.
She then turned to Rhea, who was dressed quite extravagantly.
“Miss Evans, I've ruined Millie’s dress like you told me to. Seriously, I don’t know
where that hideous woman got the idea that she'd fit in at the party.”
Bria's words did nothing to improve Rhea’s mood at all. The ruination of the dress
was only a short-term relief from the embarrassment Millie had caused her earlier
in the clothing store.
Bria was right, though. Millie did not have the qualifications to attend the birthday
party.
The thought of the woman linking arms with Marcus with a smirk on her face and
her head held high as they entered the venue made Rhea seethe in anger.
A moment later, Rhea's irritated eyes landed on Celeste, who was sipping her
tea.
She began formulating a strategy in her head and approached the older woman.
She was sure that there was no way Celeste would let Millie attend the birthday
party.
Rhea beamed as she sat down next to the older woman.
“Mrs. Thomas, will Millie also attend Madam Claudia’s birthday party?”
“she’s going? Where did you get that idea?” The mention of Millie's name
instantly brought a frown to Celeste’s face.
“I saw her shopping for a dress when I went to buy clothes yesterday. I thought
you agreed to let her go because you wanted to introduce her to everyone at the
party,”
Rhea said.
When evening came, Celeste sat in the living room, her countenance grim.
She heard the sound of the door opening, indicating that Marcus had returned.

an impressive 1.88 meters. Marcus's
longtime dominance over the
Thomas family’s riches and company
was a testament to his intelligence
and ability. He was physically and
intellectually outstanding. The

Despite all of that, he ended up marrying a very unremarkable woman.

“That wicked girl has bought a dress
to wear to Claudia’s birthday party, so
she obviously plans on attending. Are
you really planning to let her go?”

Marcus sat down next to her, his expression growing gloomy.
