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, I 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 I 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.
Overcome with shame, she hastily left the place.
She had never experienced such a humiliating failure before. No one would be
able to understand how terrible she felt at that moment.
Millie, meanwhile, was staring at her phone, reading the message Dustin had
sent her. He was inquiring about the competition's outcome.

Marcus looked at Millie, who was
absorbed in her phone, and then he
and Derek exchanged glances. Derek
immediately understood what he was
trying to convey and signalled to the
others. Soon, they were all silently

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. The

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.”
