Milly couldn’t help but inquire, “Lucius, don’t you relish this dance?”

Lucius arched an eyebrow in response, his voice cool yet affirming. “I quite admire it.”

Milly’s confusion deepened further. If he appreciated it so, why indulge in this charade of adding spice to his pursuit of Stephanie?

There was a flicker of intrigue in Lucius’s eyes as he regarded her. “Are you so certain I can win her over?”

Milly responded with conviction, “Absolutely, being a woman myself, I understand our kind best. Though she may not reveal it outwardly, she secretly holds you in high regard. Women often conceal their feelings behind a facade!”

“What if she still rejects me?”
