“I just came to have a look. Don’t worry about me. Carry on with your work.”
The previous night, Millie had noticed something odd about Marcus.
Whenever she had a free moment, her mind would wander to the mystery.
The more she considered it, the more suspicious it seemed. As Grace had
pointed out, could he really be out for social events every single day?
Derek's voice broke through her thoughts. “Mr. Thomas is inside. You can go in
directly.”
“No, thank you. I'm not here for him,” Millie said, shaking her head.
Her eyes caught sight of a schedule on the secretary’s desk, sparking her
curiosity.

“You're not here to see Mr. Thomas?” Derek asked, disbelief in his voice.
“It's lunchtime. Shouldn't you get something to eat?” Millie said with a smile.
Derek believed he had figured out Millie's intentions. She must have come to see
Marcus; they seemed to want to spend every possible moment together.
“I was so engrossed in work that I forgot. I'll go now,” he replied, and promptly left
to take the elevator.
Once the elevator door closed, Millie opened the schedule. After examining it, her
face fell.
The evening slot on Marcus’ schedule was vacant. Hadn't he mentioned he had
an appointment?
Glancing uneasily toward his office, Millie set down the schedule and departed.
When Derek returned, he surveyed Marcus’ office but found no trace of Millie.
“Mr. Thomas, didn’t Mrs. Thomas come in?” he inquired.
Marcus set aside the contract he'd been perusing and responded in a monotone,
“She was here?”
“Twenty minutes ago, she arrived. I assumed she was here for you.”
