Sanford flashed a knowing smile, replying, âRosalynn, I need to hit the restroom first.
â
Deep down, he knew bringing Jaelyn into this situation wouldnât be wise.
Stirring the pot with Maggie through Millieâs presence was sufficient.
After all, he was about to tie the knot.
Could Maggie truly remain apathetic?
Meanwhile, in front of the dressing mirror, Millie exuded an air of arrogance and authority.
With a composed demeanor, Maggie calmly replied, âIâm sorry, but we donât offer that service.
â
Millie had the audacity to request her to kneel to take her measurements?
Fat chance! Did she fancy herself as some sort of royalty?
âAnd what if I insist?â Undeterred, Millie lifted her chin defiantly, asserting, âYou should be aware that Sanford is acquainted with Kaliyah.
If you donât provide satisfactory service, Iâll have him lodge a complaint with her!â
Sanford would complain to Kaliyah about her?
Even then, Maggie had faith that Kaliyah wouldnât agree with Millieâs arrogance.
Yet, deep down, Maggie harbored a fear that Sanford might become overly persistent and insist on embarrassing her.
She clenched her fingers tightly, opting for silence.
Millie, noticing Maggieâs hesitation, sneered, âDoes it sting? Are you feeling humiliated, Maggie Shear? Leave Skrix while you still can.
Otherwise, Iâll make it my daily mission to find fault with you and subject you to humiliation.
You wouldnât want to endure what happened to your brother, would you?â
At Millieâs words, Maggieâs gaze turned icy cold.
âAre you trying to threaten me? It appears you played a role in causing harm to my brother in that matter.
â
Millie let out a contemptuous snort, wearing her pride like a badge.
âIndeed, it was my idea.
Maggie, youâre the one whoâs going to lose out! Take a good look at yourself in the mirror!â
Meeting Millieâs gaze, Maggieâs fingers curled into fists, but then, unexpectedly, a smile spread across her face.
âMiss Brooks, are you insisting on driving me away because you fear I might win Sanford over? Donât make that mistake again! I dare you.
If you ever threaten my family members, I wonât hesitate to take Sanford away from you.
You should realize that he harbors no affection for you whatsoever.
And once I win him back, your engagement will crumble!â
Maggieâs voice was firm, her resolve evident.
Her posture was unwavering, her gaze resolute.
Millieâs expression shifted, her anger evident as she raised her hand in frustration.
âYou bitchâ¦â
Before Millie could finish, Maggie swiftly grabbed her hand and pushed her away.
Caught off guard, Millie stumbled in her high heels, crashing to the floor in shock.
âMaggie, how dare you lay a hand on me!â Millie exclaimed, her voice trembling with indignation.
