Nancy had delivered the design draft to Marcus’ house the previous night,
receiving approval from the Fairclough family. They awaited her final draft, but
now, with her hand injured by the chair, she could no longer work on it.
Marcus’ gaze settled on Millie. Expecting her to be at home, he had been
surprised to find her in the bar, gripping the chair with fierce determination.
“What's going on?” he questioned Millie.
Millie noticed there was no condemnation in his eyes. Did he trust her?
“I overheard you say you didn’t mean to hit her. Who were you aiming at?” he
probed, sensing that Millie wouldn't brandish a chair without provocation.
Someone must have threatened her.
His words warmed Millie’s heart.

“Someone tried to make me drink, so I picked up the chair to defend myself.”
Marcus’ eyes narrowed, his expression sharpening.
“They tried to make you drink?”
Nancy's mind reeled. Marcus seemed unconcerned with her injury, despite her
role as the Thomas Group's chief designer.
His attention was consumed by Millie.
This couldn't be happening.
“Mr. Thomas, my hand is in pain. Please, take me to the hospital.”
Nancy attempted to shift the focus.
Marcus’ voice was icy as he addressed Derek.
“Take her to the hospital.”
Nancy's dissatisfaction was palpable.
She couldn't fathom how, at this pivotal time for the company, her injured hand
could be treated so lightly.
“Mr. Thomas, what if my hand never heals? Mr. Fairclough is very fond of the
starry sky series. He wants me to complete it posthaste,” she protested.
But Marcus barely glanced at her hand, his impatience evident.
“Go get it checked. The Thomas Group won't fall apart without this particular
order.”
What was he implying?
Nancy's shock gave way to a strained smile after a long pause.
“Very well.”
