“It’s settled then. Just wait for me here. I’ll be out soon,” Louis said cheerfully as if he didn’t hear her. Or


    maybe he just didn’t take her refusal seriously.


    As soon as he went into the president’s office and closed the door, Marcus grabbed her hand and


    pulled her away.


    He pulled her all the way to the hotel room and closed the door. He loosened his tie, untied the silk


    scarf on his arm and kept it in a box without saying a word.


    Millie red at him from behind and said, “You can’t just take me away like that after I was asked to


    wait. You will make mee off as impolite.”


    Marcus took off his tie and threw it on the bed, saying casually, “You don’t need to be polite to him.”


    He saw the way Louis looked at Millie, and it wasn’t an innocent look. The glint in his eyes when he


    looked at her said that he wanted to pursue her.


    He had been worried about Millie working as Louis’ assistant to the point where he followed her to


    Preagend University. Now that he was here, he saw for himself that his suspicions were true.


    He had a lot of things to take care of at thepany, but after the president extended this invitation to


    come and teach at the university, he thought of Millie and epted the offer.


    Millie realized from Marcus’ words and actions that he had a prejudice against Louis. She clenched her


    teeth in anger. He was being absurd. She and Louis were just friends. She only agreed to be Louis’


    assistant because he gave her a lot of useful suggestions for her previous designs.

    Marcus slowly walked towards Millie, simultaneously unbuttoning two buttons of his shirt.


    “You should study hard and grab this opportunity to join the Thomas Group.”


    As he kepting close to her, Millie instinctively stepped back until her back touched a table.


    “What do you mean?” she asked in a low voice.


    “It’s simple. Study hard so that I can see just how capable you are.”


    Randolph looked like an honest and upright man, but Marcus knew that he only asked him here to give


    the students of Preagend University a better chance to work in hispany.


    The Thomas Group was the biggest jewelrypany in the country. Almost everyone interested in the


    business wanted to work there. Randolph was just looking out for his students by trying to get them the


    best opportunity to earn a good future.


    Millie was confused by Marcus’ words as the atmosphere got heavier.


    The sun was setting outside. Marcus stared at the delicate face in front of him and swallowed. As if on


    instinct, he leaned in, his eyes focused on her lips.


    Millie pushed herself back, but Marcus raised her chin with the tip of his finger. His lips fluttered lightly


    above hers and were about to go all in when the doorbell rang.


    With a deep frown, he let go of her.


    Millie used this to her advantage and rushed to open the door.


    A beautiful girl was standing at the other side of it. Millie recognized her. They were in the same year.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
