Chapter 1059

Because Millie didn’t seem to resent her, Grace felt a surge of relief.

“Based on what’s transpired, it’s evident that Marcus is truly dependable. I misunderstood him. If he

were here, I’d apologize to him as well.”

Millie couldn’t help but burst into laughter. As she raised her gaze, she spotted Nancy exiting the

Thomas Group and getting on a taxi to leave.

Nancy wasn’t able to see Millie’s design draft, so she decided to consult Mrs. Fairclough about it.

She was curious what Millie had come up with to make Mrs. Fairclough prefer Millie’s design over hers.

Inside the Fairclough family residence, a servant escorted Nancy into the hall.

“Madam, Nancy is here,” the servant announced.

Engaged in her beauty routine, Mrs. Fairclough was using a facial mask in the living room. Nancy

approached and said, “Mrs. Fairclough, I’ve come to showcase my refined design with you.”

Mrs. Fairclough got up, face mask and all, and instructed the servant to serve tea.

“Nancy, please bear with me for a moment. I need to remove the mask first.”

Mrs. Fairclough departed for the bathroom. While Nancy waited, she noticed the drawer slightly ajar

under the mahogany tea table, partially revealing a design draft.

After scanning the hall to ensure her privacy, Nancy crouched and opened the drawer.

Inside was indeed a jewelry design, and it was nothing short of breathtaking. An involuntary pinch of

the sofa’s armrest expressed Nancy’s amazement.

The design showcased a radiant necklace with a snow-white swan pendant. The swan elegantly lifted

its head, revealing a graceful neckline. A similar exquisite swan adorned a diamond ring, captured in a

delightful dance. It was no exaggeration to call these pieces masterful creations.

Nancy’s attention then focused on the signature at the Lower right corner, unequivocally confirming it

as Millie’s handiwork.

She clenched her teeth in frustration. Millie’s choice of a swan theme was astoundingly clever. Beyond

that, her adept artistic skill rendered the swan a hundred times more beautiful than any other

designer’s rendition.

The swan, emblematic of profound love, was a brilliant concept for a wedding theme. Millie had won

her with this idea.

Although her starry sky series sparkled, it lacked the poignant symbolism of the swan.

In Light of Millie’s work, hers paled in comparison.

Upon hearing footsteps, Nancy promptly restored the design to its place and shut the drawer.

“Nancy, please enjoy some tea,” a servant offered.

“Thank you,” she replied.

Once Mrs. Fairclough reappeared, Nancy proceeded to display her work.

Although Mrs. Fairclough did acknowledge its merit, her response lacked the astonishment Nancy had

hoped for.
