Even so, Emerie’s discontent remained. How did someone as unassuming as Millie end up marrying the most captivating man?
“Where’s Rosie?”
Nancy found it odd that she hadn’t seen Rosie around.
“She went out this afternoon. If she had known you were back, she probably wouldn’t have left.”

Moreover, Kaya had set her sights on Marcus.
When approached, Kaya’s brow furrowed. “Who are you?”
She didn’t recognize the woman in business attire.
“You needn’t concern yourself with that. I’m aware of your infatuation with Marcus and your aspiration to join the Thomas Group. Unfortunately, you ranked fourth, missing out on a great opportunity.”
Kaya’s eyes widened in astonishment and disbelief.
“You investigated me?” Kaya’s voice dripped with both embarrassment and anger.
Rosie shrugged indifferently. “There is no need to be defensive. I’m here to offer you a second chance.”
After a brief pause, Kaya asked cautiously, “What chance?”
“Share your phone number with me, and I’ll provide you with Marcus’ dinner plans. Since you’re smitten with him, you can likely guess my intentions.”

Rosie nodded, her gaze appraising Kaya’s appearance.
“Indeed. Do you believe you’re inferior to Millie?”
This ploy instantly ignited Kaya’s determination.
“Millie is nothing but a loser. I’m certainly more worthy than her.”
“Very well then. Await my message.”
When Marcus returned home, he spotted Millie seated on a bench in the garden, her gaze lost in the distance.
“The evening is setting in,” Marcus remarked.
Millie shifted her gaze towards him. His hand was nonchalantly nestled within the pocket of his sleek black trousers, his eyes engaged in studying her.
