This is all your fault. My relationship with Judie is hanging by a thread now. Your words embarrassed me, and it’s even more infuriating when you flaunt your close bond with Millie in front of me.”
Mylo, although saying this, actually felt a twinge of guilt. He shouldn’t have slandered Marcus, it undeniably crossed moral boundaries.
In his entire life, he had never committed such an immoral act.
“Who started by slandering me? You can joke with me, but you won’t succeed in making Millie unhappy.”
Mylo said with a shrug, “I was just joking to lighten the mood.”

“It’s not a joke if it upsets her.”
Mylo couldn’t believe this was the sMarcus who had shown little interest in women before getting married.

“You’d move heaven and earth for her, wouldn’t you?”
Marcus put out his cigarette and shot Mylo a stern look.
“If that’s what she Likes, why not? As for your situation, don’t try to keep it from Judie. Everyone knows about your past. If you two want to be together, she’ll have to accept it.”
Mylo ran his hand through his hair. When he thought back on his past romantic experiences, he couldn’t help but feel disheartened.
“To be honest, I’m genuinely committed this time. Ever since I met her, I haven’t been interested in other women at all. You have no idea how devoted I am to her. I drop her off at work, pick her up afterward, and reply to her messages within seconds. Even when I’m in the shower, I respond to her immediately. Can you believe it? The only woman’s phone number on my phone is my mother’s. I’ve never been this infatuated with a woman.”
Mylo kicked the nearby pillar in frustration.
“Look at her now. How could she get upset with me? I’ve never been bothered that she had a crush on Bruce before.”
After pouring out his thoughts, Mylo felt like a failure but couldn’t help his continuing affection for Judie.

“Explain it to Millie when the tis right. I’ve never been to those places.”
Mylo questioned, “Will she believe it?”
He was uncertain. At this point, it seemed unlikely that Millie would want anything to do with him. He had truly angered her, primarily out of jealousy.
Marcus raised an eyebrow with an implicit warning.
“If she doesn’t believe it, what do you suggest we do?”
It was evident that Marcus was implying that if Millie didn’t forgive him, Mylo might face a harsh consequence.
Returning to the pool area, the passing women’s attention was drawn to the two handsmen with model-like figures, but neither Marcus nor Mylo paid them any heed.
