Lucius stood impassively behind her, his gaze inscrutable and unreadable. Even though Milly had steeled. herself for this encounter, she still trembled under his unwavering scrutiny. “I… I didn’t mean to…” she stammered, her voice betraying her anxiety,
His eyes darkened, his tongue pressing against his check, and with a sudden, deliberate step forward, he closed the distance between them. Instinctively, Milly stepped back.
“You’re afraid of me,” he remarked.
Milly forced an awkward smile, a chill running down her spine as his intense gaze remained fixed upon her. She wished to explain, yet words cluded her. “T…”
In truth, her reaction was pure instinct, a reflex she could not suppress. Who could remain composed when faced with such an unnerving presence? She could not dare to label him a pervert to his face, lest she invite his ire and find herself in an even more precarious situation.
As Milly hesitated, considering whether to fabricate a harmless lie to diffuse the tension, a melodious and gentle voice interrupted her thoughts:
“Milly, Lucius, what are you two discussing? You seem so engaged, mind if I join?” Stephanie’s voice, sweet and soft, broke the moment’s tension.
Stephanie’s presence, though outwardly graceful and serene, concealed an eagerness that Milly could sense. She had hoped for such an intervention, and now it had arrived. Hearing Stephanie felt like hearing an angel, and her eyes filled with gratitude, though in the past, she would’ve mocked her.

Stephanie’s eyes narrowed slightly, a flicker of disbelief crossing her features. Since when had Milly become so benevolent?
Yet Milly, oblivious to Stephanie’s suspicion, basked in her own relief. It seemed her task had been effortlessly accomplished. She had pondered how best to introduce Stephanie to Lucius and now, by some serendipity, the opportunity presented itself without any exertion on her part.
As long as the two met, following the narrative’s trajectory, Lucius would undoubtedly lose interest in her and become enamoured with Stephanie. They would then form a perfect union, allowing Milly to escape from the clutches of the psychopath.
