“Why the silence? Are you not pleased with this development?”

Marcus lifted her chin to meet her eyes.

She blinked thoughtfully.

“I’m just a modest intern designer. What say could I possibly have over the Chief Designer’s departure?”

Marcus lowered his hand, sparing her chin from reddening. When he heard Millie describe herself as just a modest intern designer, a smirk crossed his face.

“I sense you’re not entirely happy with this outcome. What would you have done?”

After a moment’s thought, Millie said, “If you really want to know, I wouldn’t mind seeing her boiled, maybe even deep-fried.”

Having been put in danger by Nancy twice, Millie had little reason to be magnanimous. Yet, these were just words. If she actually had it in her to be that ruthless, Nancy would have been out of the picture long ago.

Marcus chuckled.

“You’re quite fierce, aren’t you?”

She pouted.

“If you think I’m too fierce, maybe you should look for someone kinder.”

She was the kind of person who would go the extra mile for those who treated her well.

“Even if you’re so fierce, that’s fine by me. I’m not letting go of you.”

They reached Gray’s Restaurant, where the Fairclough family had booked a secluded dining room. In attendance were Mr. and Mrs. Fairclough as well as their daughter, Miss Fairclough.

Mr. and Mrs. Fairclough, along with their daughter, greeted them warmly.

Mr. Fairclough raised his glass.

“Mr. Thomas, a toast to the exquisite jewelry your company has crafted. They will make my daughter’s wedding nothing short of perfect. For that, I am deeply grateful.”

Catching sight of the glass Marcus was about to lift, Millie remembered his injury.

She whispered, “Be careful not to drink too much.”

Marcus turned to her, a wave of warmth washing over him. Millie cared, and that meant the world to him.
