The whole department was abuzz with excitement.
Meanwhile, Emerie slipped out of the office, face twisted into a grimace. Their worst fear had come true.
After leaving her office, Emerie hastily dialed Nancy’s number, relaying everything that had unfolded.
On the other end of the call, Nancy was livid, feeling a burning humiliation as though Millie were flaunting her success.

After the meeting concluded, Marcus stepped out of the room to find Derek waiting for him with a message: Harlan had an appointment with him.
They soon arrived at the private room where Harlan was settled.
Marcus entered and took a seat on the red sofa, his eyes meeting Harlan’s, who was in the midst of enjoying a drink.
“What’s the matter?”
Harlan set his glass down, his face serious. “I’ve received news from the island. They’re asking for you to accompanythere and receive treatment immediately.”
Without a moment’s hesitation, Marcus refused.
“I can’t leave.”
Harlan took a large gulp of his wine, his voice carrying a note of urgency. “It’s very serious. Even though you’ve been lucky, death is still a real possibility.”
Though he had been indifferent to many things, Harlan had grappled with the situation concerning Marcus. He could not let his friend face such a fate.

“I have no love for that place,” Marcus replied in a chilly tone.
“Nothing but darkness. I have no intention of returning after leaving once.”
His words hung heavy in the room, a clear reminder of his unwillingness to revisit a place that had once been cruel to him.
Only Millie’s presence brought warmth into his life.
Harlan chuckled, breaking the silence.
“You’re infatuated with that girl, aren’t you? That’s why you won’t accompanyto the island. But darkness is where you shine, Marcus.
