Chapter: 400

Recognizing the significance of the moment, Nancy was well aware that dealing a decisive blow to someone as adept at eloquence as Millie was the appropriate course of action.

With a sense of urgency, Nancy swiftly approached Marcus, gracefully interjecting herself into the conversation he was engrossed in with another gentleman.

“Mr. Ellsworth.”

“Nancy, your beauty radiates even more splendidly today. Mr. Thomas, you are truly fortunate to have her by your side,” commented Elliot Ellsworth with admiration.

Gazing upon Nancy’s demeanor, he swiftly entertained the notion that she might be entangled in an affair with Marcus.

That was precisely Nancy’s wish—to embody both competence and beauty. But she acknowledged that if she were to work elsewhere, people would undoubtedly suspect her connection with her boss. Elliot’s jest did not garner Marcus’ approval.

Suddenly, a woman seized Marcus’ arm. To his surprise, it was Millie, leaning against his shoulder, adorned with a gentle smile.

Curiosity emanated from Millie’s voice as she inquired, “Pray, elaborate on what you meant when you said my husband is fortunate.”

Marcus instinctively refrained from ejecting her.

Upon catching sight of Millie, Elliot's countenance froze, betraying a meaningful expression. Memories of encountering her at Claudia’s birthday party flooded back, evoking a profound sense of embarrassment within him.

“Well, behold, the illustrious Mrs. Thomas graces us with her presence,” Elliot playfully remarked. “Truly, the Thomas Group is blessed to have an exceptional designer like Nancy. If the company continues to prosper because of her, Mr. Thomas will undoubtedly be content.”

“You misconstrue the situation. My husband’s excellence and the Group’s fhave contributed to Nancy’s success. Truly, no designer can reach the pinnacle of greatness without a top-tier platform,” Millie eloquently countered.

Elliot’s forehead glistened with sweat as he hadn't anticipated Mrs. Thomas catching onto his joke. “Indeed, Mrs. Thomas is right. I’ve learned a valuable lesson,” Elliot admitted humbly.

Judging by their stances, Elliot keenly figured out who held the greatest importance in Mr. Thomas’ heart. Nancy stood nearby him, while Millie lovingly clung to his arm, resting her head on his shoulder.

“Pardonfor a moment.” Elliot excused himself.

With Elliot’s departure, Millie found no need for pretense. She straightened her posture, released Marcus’ arm, and tidied her tousled hair.

In response, Nancy shot Millie an intense, wrathful glare before turning on her heels and leaving.

“Well done,” Marcus acknowledged with a faint smile.

Millie had brought him in her act. But he found amusement in her playful antics.

Millie rolled her eyes, and her smile faded.

“Thank you for your kind words. Did you invitehere solely for the sake of witnessing you being teased by others? And is it true that you are as fortunate as Elliot implied?” Millie inquired, an undercurrent of jealousy subtly surfacing.
