Burning Passion: Love Never Die
With the design successfully delivered, Millie concluded her task. The Thomas Group boasted a
dedicated team responsible for translating design drafts into exquisite jewelry, alleviating her concerns
over the production phase.
Emerie, her eyes keenly surveying Millie, concealed her amusement. While others remained in the dark
regarding Millieâs masked appearance, Emerie was privy to the truth.
âJust a moment, please. My workload is quite substantial. Would you mind lending a hand? You can
work remotely.â
Millie trailed after Emerie to the office. There, Emerie furnished Millie with a contact number.
âThis is the clientâs number. You can reach out through this.â
Yet before Millie could fully take in the information, a sudden impact jolted her, and a glass of water
splashed across her face.
âAre you all right? Your mask is soaked.â

In her haste, Emerie ripped the mask off Millieâs face.
âGood heavens! Whatâs happened to your skin?â
Emerie gasped in shock, her voice reverberating through the office and capturing everyoneâs attention.
âLook, her face is covered in rashes. Itâs startling!â
âThe redness is intense. Will it heal?â
âCould it be contagious? Iâd rather not catch it.â
The commotion surged around the department.
Narrowing her eyes, Millie procured another mask from her bag and secured it in place.
âI apologize. I wasnât aware your appearance had changed in this manner.â
Emerie voiced her apology.
Without further ado, Millie reclaimed her seat, discreetly inspecting her surroundings. As anticipated,
her search yielded an unfamiliar object in the drawer.
A sachet?
Curiosity piqued, she inhaled its scent, only to be overcome by a wave of nausea and promptly
discarded the sachet.
Millie scanned the office, sachet in hand. Observing this, Emerie hastened to feign preoccupation, her
gaze affixed to her work.
Millieâs fists clenched, her gaze sweeping across the office with a sharp intensity as she pondered who
could have orchestrated this act.
It undoubtedly revolved around the peculiar sachet that had triggered her skinâs adverse reaction.
