“It was | who granted you entry. The item you carried in your hand has gained popularity outside, and my curiosity was piqued,” Mylo explained.
Without delay, Bruce seized the plate from Millie’s hand. “Millie, this work doesn’t befit you. Please take a seat and allowto take care of it,” Bruce interjected.
A fog of confusion enveloped Millie’s mind. What were they all up to? Their actions only deepened her unease. However, she quickly pinched her arm, commanding herself to remain alert and clear-headed.
“Unfortunately, | am preoccupied with my duties and cannot sit. Please take a seat yourselves. Would you like to sample this drink? | can prepare a cup for each of you.

Her action caught everyone off guard, yet they found her resolute in preserving her offering. After exchanging glances, they had little choice but to give up and take their seats.
Seated now, Millie placed a cup of honey-lemon water before Mylo, her demeanor gentle.
“This concoction is a blend of honey, lemon, and jasmine flowers. | invite you to savor it and letknow your thoughts,” she said, though her optimism regarding this group of affluent and discerning individuals remained subdued.
Noticing that Millie served only Mylo, the others exchanged puzzled looks. Even Marcus regarded her with surprise. How could she just give a drink to Mylo?
Was she disregarding their presence entirely?
