Marcus raised an eyebrow, mulling over the revelation that the mentioned designer was indeed Millie.

Questions arose in his mind: how did Millie cto know Mrs. Barton? Why had she been summoned to compete with Nancy? Mrs. Barton's use of “Miss Brown” hinted at her lack of awareness regarding Millie’s identity as his wife.

“Mr. Thomas, do you consent to a contest between the chief designer of your company and Miss Brown?” Mrs. Barton queried once more.

“Of course, courage has never eluded us,” Marcus declared, his gaze sharp upon Millie. Though uncertain of the circumstances, he possessed a genuine curiosity to witness Millie’s creative work. In comparison with Nancy’s creations, Millie’s design prowess would be discernible.

Millie’s thoughts went momentarily blank. The prospect of competing with Nancy had not crossed her mind. She harbored no qualms about Nancy’s greater fame; her focus would be on her own design.

“Mrs. Barton...” Millie began, only to be halted by Mrs. Barton’s hand upon her own.

With a gentle touch, Mrs. Barton interrupted Millie, “l eagerly await your contributions.”

Nancy, with a faint smile playing on her lips, inquired, “Feeling apprehensive, Millie? Hesitant to embrace the challenge?” While Nancy's fwas substantial, Millie's identity as a relatively unknown designer lent a sense of incongruity to their rivalry. Yet Nancy perceived it an opportunity to deliver a blow to Millie’s self-assurance—a chance to underscore her own prominence. In Nancy's estimation, Millie’s fortuitous marriage to the influential Marcus was a stroke of luck.

However, Millie's response belied Nancy’s assumptions. Millie's countenance underwent a transformation. Her initial uncertainty dissolved, replaced by a burgeoning confidence that manifested as a subtle smile.

“No, | assure you, | harbor no reluctance,” Millie stated with conviction. Nancy was utterly taken aback by Millie’s audacity. The challenge in Millie’s tone was evident, and what surprised Nancy even

more was the utter ease with which Millie addressed her. It was as if Millie wasn’t the least bit intimidated by Nancy’s powerful reputation. This unexpected defiance caused Nancy to clench her jaw tightly in frustration.

“Are you certain? Hope you won't back out later.”

“lm certain. | won’t back out,” Millie affirmed with determination. Mrs. Barton nodded in approval and glanced at the snow outside. “Why don’t you two design a necklace with a ‘snow’ theme?”

The snow glistened, translucent and pure, serving as a beautiful symbol of purity.
