Chapter 918
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
As Millie made her way to the material department via the elevator to acquire new design tools, she
was joined by two girls from different floors.
Oblivious to Millieâs presence, they entered the elevator, engrossed in their mobile phones, and started
to converse.
âCan you believe it? Sheâs married to the president, and now sheâs having an affair with Mr. Bruce. How
utterly disgraceful!â
Millieâs heart skipped a beat. The president? An affair with Mr. Bruce? They were discussing her!
âYes, and right in the company too. Did you see how lovingly she looked at Mr. Bruce? Itâs just too
much. She shows no respect for the presidentâs dignity whatsoever.â
âOur president is flawless, and sheâs clearly not fit to him. Her behavior is simply wanton.â
Just then, the elevator doors slid open, and the girls stepped out. But Millie couldnât let it go.
âHold on! What are you two talking about?â she demanded.
A N G E L A âs L I B R A R Y
They turned, their faces registering shock at recognizing Millie.
âWhatâs on your phone?â
Millieâs eyes darted to the phone, and the two exchanged a glance before one of them huffed, âShow
her, or sheâll think weâre defaming her.â
Millieâs eyes widened as she saw the image on the screen. It was a picture of her and Bruce
conversing, but it seemed like a loving gaze was exchanged between them.
This was all a huge misunderstanding.
âWho snapped this photo?â she asked, anger rising.
âWe didnât. It was on the company website.â
The company website? Everyone must have seen it. But she hadnât noticed it before.
âOn the company website? I looked there earlier and didnât find it.â
âIt was removed quite a while ago. We saved it.â
That explained the strange looks she had been receiving.
Handing the phone back, Millie watched as the girls left, her fists clenching in frustration. Who would
have thought that an innocent chat could be misconstrued as a romantic encounter?
Who was the scoundrel behind the lens?
Her heart ached at the thought that Marcus, ever the jealous type, must have seen it too. Trouble was
brewing.
Back in the material department, Millie was met with several judgmental stares as she retrieved the
tools. She then headed back to the thirty-second floor.
