“Stop dwelling on her, Even if she isn’t conventionally attractive, she wouldn’t hold any interest in you. Word has it that she graduated from Preagend’s finest university, while you, a pampered youth who didn’t even finish high school, why would she spare you a thought?”

Delia’s assessment of Millie ran deep. A diligent and well-mannered student since childhood, Millie carried an impression of grace and dedication. Beneath her gentle exterior lay a strong-willed individual with steadfast principles.

Resolving to block out his mother’s words, Roland contemplated the irony that his own mother not only failed to encourage him to pursue an exceptional wife but also looked down on him. He couldn’t help but wonder if she was truly his mother.

Roland sprang to his feet abruptly, capturing an eight-legged insect that had been crawling on Laurel. The creature resembled a centipede, with its elongated body triggering discomfort.

“This insect is venomous. Its bite would provoke a rash across your body, inducing insufferable itchiness,” Roland cautioned.

Laurel, after catching a clear glimpse of the long black critter, shivered, a shudder coursing through her.

“Just follow my lead. Quickly, put it in a bottle,” Laurel insisted.

With a purposeful stride, she returned indoors, changed attire, and emerged once more. Seizing the bottle with the trapped insect from Roland’s grasp, she secured a bag for its containment.

“Where are you headed?” Roland inquired, observing Laurel’s departure.

“It’s none of your concern. I’ll be back shortly,” cLaurel’s retort. Roland stroked his chin thoughtfully, puzzled by Laurel’s behavior. It was evident that she had an aversion to insects, so why was she purposefully taking one outside?

Bag in hand, Laurel knocked on Millie’s door.

Nursing a wound of humiliation, Laurel hatched a plan to retaliate – placing the insect in Millie’s bed.

The prospect of depositing the insect in Millie’s bed, and the potential consequences that might unfold during her slumber, sent shivers down

Laurel’s spine, eliciting goosebumps.

Simultaneously, Millie was occupied in the kitchen, tending to a pot of boiling water. The interruption of a knock on her door led her to respond by opening it.

The instant the door swung open, Laurel entered without hesitation.

“Millie, I’ve cto inquire after your well-being. Doesn’t living alone evoke fear?
