Chapter 912

Impatiently, Rosie turned back around to face Millie.

“What else do you require?” Rosie inquired with a touch of impatience.

“In the future, for minor matters, you can approach Emerie directly.

She’s capable of managing them.”

A hushed whisper echoed through the air.

“Ms. Astley is truly bold, not the least bit apprehensive. After all,

Millie is the president’s wife.” “Her high-profile demeanor has been consistent, although your

observation is valid. Considering Millie’s status as the president’s wife, she should exercise more

discretion,” another voice chimed in.

Millie recounted, “Yesterday, I was working late in the office, and suddenly the entire floor experienced

a power outage.”

As anticipated, Rosie’s expression underwent a shift. The mention of the power outage caught her off

guard.

Rosie addressed the matter with a calculated approach. Was Millie perceptive enough to notice?

“In the event of a power interruption, it’s likely due to a circuit disruption. You should inform the

maintenance department about this matter,” Rosie advised.

“The circuit is broken?” Millie echoed, her tone carrying a mixture of surprise and curiosity.

“Perhaps. Nevertheless, as a senior staff member at the Thomas Group, Ms. Astley should be aware

that disabling the office power prior to everyone’s departure constitutes a breach of protocol. The

consequences may extend to the cancellation of that month’s bonus.” Millie proceeded with her

remarks.

“A similar incident occurred in the past. Due to a personal vendetta between employees, the company’s

electric gate was intentionally disconnected while another employee was working overtime. This

individual was left stranded and immobilized within the office during the winter months. Consequently,

Thomas Group implemented a prohibition on power cutoffs until all employees have departed, in order

to avert such scenarios,” Millie elaborated.

Millie gleaned this information from Marcus during their conversation last night.

“Are you implying that I intentionally disconnected the power?” Rosie countered.

“It’s common knowledge that I left the office early yesterday,” Rosie stated.

Rosie clenched her teeth, a sense of frustration evident. Had Millie been feigning kindness all along?

Now, it seemed, she was delivering a warning.

“I hope it wasn’t you.” Millie simply shrugged in response.

Although Rosie found Millie’s behavior vexing, she recognized the futility of dwelling on the issue any

longer.

“I don’t wish to squander more time here with you. I have a multitude of matters demanding my

attention,” Rosie asserted.

As Millie settled into her seat, a palpable sense of relief washed over her. In truth, the jewelry-related

responsibilities at Thomas Group paralleled those found in other firms, albeit with a greater emphasis

on intricate particulars. Having previously been employed by other companies, Millie had navigated the

terrain of memorizing copious details before.

The atmosphere toward Millie underwent a perceptible shift.

Perhaps Millie’s recent display had acted as a deterrent.
