    He gazed at the scene in the hotel''s square, his brow furrowing in concern.


    Outside, Millie was gleefully ying in the snow with others. She molded a snowball sorge and cold that it made her hands


    tremble, yet she held onto it, reluctant to let it go.


    Awave of exasperation washed over Marcus as he watched Millie. She showed no urgency about her design and had even


    fallen asleep while working on it the previous night.


    Meanwhile, Nancy hadpleted her design, and yet here was Millie, seemingly careless, continuing to y outside.


    “This woman!” he muttered to himself. Marcus’ face darkened as he leaned against the window frame, his thoughts filled with


    frustration.


    After engaging in snow y with the tourists for an extended period, Millie returned to her room. She removed her damp towel,


    shaking off the clinging snow.


    Finding Marcus on the sofa, his gaze fixed on her, Millie looked up in surprise.


    “Don’t you have anything to do today?” she queried.


    Ignoring her question, Marcus retorted, “Have you finished your design? You''ve been outside ying all day.”


    Millie hung her towel on the hanger, nonchntly replying, “I''vepleted my design work. | didn’t have anything else to do, and


    | didn’t want to be stuck in my room all day. When | saw them ying in the snow, | decided to join.”


    What?


    Marcus’ surprise was evident. He had assumed Millie was wasting time, but her casual statement that her design was done


    made him reconsider. Had she trulypleted her work so effortlessly?


    It appeared that the task hadn’t been a difficult one for her.


    Could she have really finished the design?


    She hadpleted it so quickly. Was it even possible for the design to be good?


    When Millie turned to face Marcus, she noted a skeptical expression on his face. It was clear to her that he doubted her


    capabilities.


    He couldn''t possibly believe she hadpleted the design that quickly.Owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Before long, the time for the works to be disyed arrived.


    With only twenty minutes left before the scheduled exhibition in the hotel’s meeting room, the atmosphere grew tense.


    Nancy was poised and ready. At the appointed time, she nned to reveal her work with great flourish.


    But then something unexpected threw Millie’s ns into disarray.


    Just twenty minutes earlier, she had received a call from the carrier, informing her that the car transporting her works had


    suffered a t tire at the mountain''s base.
