Despite her retort, it was evident that Millie's friends were considerably younger
than Emerie. Men typically preferred younger women, which put Emerie at a
disadvantage against Millie's friend.
“You ought to have more confidence. You're just a few years older than my friend.
Yet, you've had multiple relationships and gathered diverse experiences.
Emerie’s anger surged at this remark.
“You're unbelievable. You're basically saying I'm inferior to your friend.”
After Millie showed Mr. Maloney the photo, he extended an invitation to dinner,
focusing solely on Millie and disregarding Emerie.
The more Emerie thought about it, the more enraged she became.
Emerie had finally gotten the opportunity to get close to Mr. Maloney and Millie
ruined her chances. Furious, she raised her hand, ready to slap Millie.
However, just as her hand was about to reach the latter's face, the elevator doors
swung open and Millie turned her head.
ANGELA'SLIBRARY
Emerie’s hand landed squarely on Mr. Maloney's face. He had just returned with
his phone, and the sudden blow stung his face.
“Mr. Maloney!” Emerie was dumbstruck.
“What the hell are you doing?”
Mr. Maloney was infuriated that Emerie slapped him.
“Mr. Maloney, I'm truly sorry. That was an accident.” Emerie quickly stepped
forward, reaching out as if to try and soothe the pain on Mr. Maloney's face.
But instead of accepting her gesture, Mr. Maloney slapped her back.
“Unbelievable! How dare you hit me?”
Being slapped by a woman was a first for him. In the aftermath, he stormed
away, anger radiating from his every step.
While covering her now throbbing cheek, Emerie felt a mixture of humiliation and
rage. She turned to confront Millie, only to find she had vanished.
She began to suspect that Millie had orchestrated the entire situation. It was as
though she had calculated when Mr. Maloney would arrive, purposefully
provoking Emerie.
