Faced with such a genuine invitation, Millie couldn’t say no.
“Very well, I’ll make sure to be there on time.”
Cnoon, Millie rose from her desk and made her way to the elevator.
When the doors slid open, Marcus was there, a surprise she hadn’t anticipated.
Marcus looked her straight in the eyes.

Millie stepped inside and cast him a quick glance.
“Where are you off to?”

His serious expression suggested he wasn’t simply stepping out for a coffee run.
With a brief laugh, Marcus casually slid a hand into his pocket.
“I’m headed the sdirection you are.”
What?
“Wait, Mrs. Fairclough invited you to lunch as well?” Millie queried, genuinely surprised.
Marcus extended his arm to draw her nearer. Why was she maintaining such a distance in the elevator? To the uninformed observer, it would seem as though they had just had a disagreement.
It was good they’d crossed paths here. His plan had been to go down, call her from the car, and ask her to join him.
“If they invite you, they’ll most certainly invite me,” Marcus said.

He had a point, but Millie wasn’t about to make things easy for him.
She brushed aside Marcus’s outstretched hand, cleared her throat, and took on a formal tone.
“Keep your distance. There’s a security camera in here. We need to act appropriately in public.”
Marcus gestured towards the camera and then reached out, pulling the very woman who had just rebuffed him into his arms.
Millie’s face immediately shifted to a look of concern.
Marcus gently brushed the tip of her elegantly curved nose.
“Don’t worry, I’ve already disabled the camera. Besides, we’re both educated enough not to do anything that would cause a scandal.”
