With both sides presenting evidence of design drafts and processes, thewsuit had proven


    challenging. Reviewing thewsuit’s progress, Marcus made the choice to alter their approach.


    “Change strategies?” Millie asked.


    “Yes. We’re now focusing on the angle that your original drafts were mysteriously lost. For instance, we


    might review surveince footage or audio recordings to subtly lead the opposing party into admitting


    the work belongs to you,” Marcus exined.


    Using the missing drafts as a starting point? Millie’s memory immediately shed back to the hospital


    conversation when Nancy confessed her involvement.

    Millie suddenly came up with an idea.


    “Leave it to me. I have a n to find the evidence,” Millie remarked confidently.


    Thereafter, Marcus stared at her with concern.

    “How do you intend to proceed? I won’t permit you to return to your former boss.”


    That man had an ulterior motive. Millie’s safety would bepromised if she were to cross paths with


    him again. If any confrontation was to take ce, it should be Marcus facing off against him.


    “I won’t approach him. I’ll start by seeking out someone else,”


    Millie responded.


    She was cautious about approaching Ryan as well. The memory of the day he led her into the dim


    room still sent shivers down her spine.


    “Someone else? Are you deliberately leaving me in suspense?” Marcus couldn’t help but smile in


    exasperation.


    Smiling back, Millie exuded confidence.


    “Just wait for me to uncover the evidence. Don’t underestimate me; I’m quite resourceful.”


    Seeing her regain her confidence brought a sense of relief to Marcus.


    Her emotional state had a direct impact on his mood; when she was down, he felt restless too.


    Meanwhile, the others held champagne sses and congregated around the zing bonfire, their


    spirits soaring. However, many of the girls couldn’t help but cast nces in their direction.


    Millie understood that their attention wasn’t directed at her. Their gaze was fixed on Marcus. Despite


    the good looks and figures of those affluent young men present, they couldn’t resist Marcus’ allure,


    drawn by his physique that rivaled that of a model and hismanding position within the formidable


    Thomas Group.


    Marcus paid them no heed and suggested, “Feeling tired yet? Let’s head back.”


    After a night of rejuvenating rest, Millie embarked on her work journey the following day. With Marcus


    away on a business expedition, it was Trenton who stepped in to usher him away in the early morning


    hours.


    As Millie graced the design department with her presence, a medley of nces converged upon her-


    someced with disdain, others brimming with surprise, and a few tinged with sympathy.


    Amidst this varied reception, Dottie stood out as a beacon of wee, her hand waving in a friendly


    gesture, inviting Millie to draw near.


    In a sea of lukewarm receptions, it was Dottie who remained genuinely delighted to see her.
