Dottie expressed her gratitude before quickly packing her belongings and hurrying out of the office, worried that Emerie might assign her more tasks.

Emerie was shocked to discover that everyone had left except for Millie, who was still seated at her desk.

“Why are you still here?” she asked.

“I stayed back because I have something to discuss with you,” Millie responded, turning her head to face Emerie.

“And what might that be?” Emerie asked, a sense of unease Lingering as she recalled her actions towards Millie earlier in the day. Could Millie have realized what she did and now intended to retaliate?

“I’d like to invite you to dinner,” Millie said, her tone surprisingly sincere.

“Are you serious?” Emerie’s skepticism was evident in her response.

“Haha, you’re absolutely right. My mistake. Perhaps I should use that money to feed stray cats instead. At least that would be a kind gesture,” Millie jested.

Emerie’s irritation flared at Millie’s words, and she shot the latter a glare.

“You… Even if you were treating me, I wouldn’t eat with you. I’m afraid you’d try to poison me.”

Emerie gathered her belongings and headed for the elevator. Millie, too, collected her things and followed suit, stepping into the elevator alongside Emerie. The two stood side by side, a tension palpable in the air.

The elevator doors slid open to reveal a man dressed in a sleek silver suit, standing within. He wasn’t an employee of the company but rather a supplier named Mr. Maloney. He frequently visited the Thomas Group for business-related matters.

Emerie cast a shy glance at Mr. Maloney, her voice adopting a flirtatious tone as she greeted, “Hello, Mr. Maloney.”

Mr. Maloney acknowledged her with a nod before turning his attention to Millie, who was also in the elevator. Observing their interaction, Millie couldn’t help but wonder if Emerie was showing interest in Mr. Maloney.

Millie had overheard soffice gossip about Mr. Maloney.

At 33 years old, he possessed a well-proportioned physique and was relatively affluent. His successful collaboration with the Thomas Group had greatly boosted his financial standing.

After years of being a laid-back individual, he had recently decided to take his marriage more seriously.

Naturally, Emerie saw this as an opportunity. She aimed to use her proximity to Mr. Maloney to her advantage. With the goal of securing a prosperous future, she sought to marry into a wealthy family. Mr. Maloney seemed like a promising candidate.

Inside the elevator, Emerie strategically adjusted her hair, subtly positioning herself closer to Mr. Maloney.

Not oblivious to Emerie’s intentions, Mr. Maloney’s astute gaze met her advances with a knowing smile. He was certainly not one to turn away from a woman who threw herself at him.

“Mr. Maloney, do you have any plans for this evening? Shall we have a drink?” Emerie inquired, her tone laced with suggestive implications.

Amid the exchange, Millie glanced around, formulating a plan of her own.

Seizing an opportunity, she asked with genuine curiosity, “Mr. Maloney, are you single?”

Emerie shot Millie a warning look, but Millie remained unperturbed.
