Millie encountered Rosie, whose eyes brimmed with resentment. Unperturbed,
Millie strode purposefully to the coffee machine.
As Rosie was about to depart, she halted and positioned herself by the coffee
machine.
“You conniving person! Did you rat me out, causing my monthly bonus to be
revoked?”
After dedicating considerable time to the Thomas Group, her bonus had never
been rescinded. The indignity of the situation stung.
Was the loss of Rosie’s bonus linked to the power outage?
The previous evening, she and Marcus were the final individuals to vacate.
She hadn't mentioned it to anyone, not even Marcus. Speculation led her to
suspect that Rosie was responsible for the power cut on their floor.
“I recall you vehemently denying involvement this morning. However, it appears
your actions were quite different,” Millie remarked with a hint of sarcasm, her
gaze fixed on Rosie.
If Rosie was indeed the perpetrator, she deserved the repercussions.
A surge of anger distorted Rosie's countenance.
“Why do you exude such arrogance? Do you truly believe you can remain the
president's wife indefinitely?”
Millie continued to observe the coffee streaming into the pristine white porcelain
cup.
“I'm uncertain if I can sustain this role indefinitely, but I am the president's wife at
present. Conversely, your managerial position may be at risk if you persist in
tormenting me.”
Rosie fought the urge to hurl the cup at Millie.
She had gravely underestimated Millie. She had assumed Millie to be meek, yet
Millie had demonstrated a capacity for assertiveness.
Millie, too, recognized that unless she stood firm, Rosie would never extend her
respect.
Having obtained her coffee, Millie pivoted to depart. However, after just a few
steps, a force struck her from behind. She staggered, and the contents of the
coffee spilled onto her clothing and the floor.
