Chapter 445
Unbeknownst to them, Nancy had overheard their exchange from a nearby corner.

Though Nancy still held sway within Thomas Group, the prospect of Marcus’ wrath was a terror she could not bear.
The more she dwelled on it, the more panic-stricken she became, prompting her to slip away quietly.
She needed to cup with a plan quickly. She didn’t intend to relinquish her position as the chief design of the Thomas Group. Back in her room, her disquiet did not go unnoticed.

“Nancy, if something weighs on your mind, confide in me. Whatever it is, I'll help you resolve it.”
Humphrey's voice trembled as he exclaimed, “You didn’t! Tellyou didn’t deceive Millie and lead her into that snow pit?” At this point, he was too shocked to utter another word.

“You'd kill her over losing a competition? Is there anything left of the Nancy | fell in love with?” he asked. Why didn’t she feel a single ounce of remorse for killing Millie? Her lack of guilt, her wish to kill over something so trivial-it didn’t make sense.
Humphrey felt a gnawing suspicion that her hatred was rooted in something more complex.
