Chapter: 425 “You make a good point, Mrs. Barton.” Marcus glanced at Nancy with a frown as he agreed with Mrs. Barton’s words. “Anyway, | have a flight at two o’clock. We should finalize the contract before 1 leave.”

Marcus’ brows shot up in surprise. He could not believe that even though Nancy, who was representing the company, lost the competition, Mrs. Barton still insisted on signing a deal with him.

“Although Nancy’s efforts were not quite up to par, I’ve found you to be a very impressive person throughout the course of the past several days, Mr. Thomas.

That’s why | decided to sign the contract with you regardless of the result of the competition,” Mrs. Barton explained. “That’s great. Thank you,” Marcus said as he extended his hand to shake Mrs. Barton's.

“You're really amazing, Millie.” Simon walked up to Millie and gave her a pat on the shoulder and a thumbs-up. “Thank you,” Millie replied with a sweet smile.

Their interaction did not go unnoticed by Marcus. The two were standing too close to each other for his liking.

When Millie noticed Marcus giving her a warning look, she pursed her lips and moved away from Simon.

Mrs. Barton and her team left the room shortly after the announcement of the winner. With a downcast expression, Nancy approached Marcus to apologize to him, but before she could say anything, he spoke up first.

“You may leave now.” Nancy gaped at him. He did not even give her a chance to speak. Overcwith shame, she hastily left the place.

understood what he was trying to convey and signalled to the others. Soon, they were all silently walking out of the room.

Upon sensing the sudden silence in her surroundings, Millie raised her head. It was then that she discovered that she and Marcus were the only ones remaining in the room. She could tell something was off, so she prepared to make a break for it.

However, Marcus, with his long legs and towering physique, walked up to her, making her feel as though a mountain was coming toward her. She took a few steps back reflexively, knocking over a chair in the process.

Soon, she had no more room to retreat as her back touched the wall and Marcus stopped inches away from her.

“Millie, just how many secrets have you been keeping from me? You said that your creativity was lacking and that you didn’t have any signature pieces to show.

What's the deal with everything that happened today, then? Explain yourself.”
