Instead, she glanced at Nancy and smiled.
“Mr. and Mrs. Fairclough, I have no interest in explaining anything about Nancy's
injury. I've heard about the impending marriage, and since Nancy's hand is now
injured, I will complete her design.”
“Millie, what did you say? You want to take my place?”
Millie's eyebrows rose, having anticipated that Nancy would react with such
excitement.
“Why are you saying that?” she asked calmly. “I simply want to assist you. Your
hand is injured, and you can't design at the moment.
Rest and recover here in the hospital.”
“Don't dare to usurp my..
Nancy caught herself, biting her bottom lip and regaining her confidence.
“You are merely a young girl who has just started working at the company. You
wish to replace me? Dream on. You're grossly overestimating your abilities. You
will never supplant me!”
“We'll soon discover whether I possess the skill or not,” Millie responded, her
voice steady and confident. In her view, though the design task was crucial, she
felt well-qualified to accomplish it.
Her assurance was akin to a slap across Nancy's face. Resolving not to let Millie
gain the upper hand, Nancy ceased her discouragement.
“It's commendable that you're confident,” she said, her voice dripping with
sarcasm. “Mr. Fairclough, Mrs. Fairclough, you've heard her. She claims she'll
replace me in the upcoming design work.”
The Faircloughs were guarded. Nancy doubted they would place their trust in
Millie.
“Impossible. She’s a nobody. She can’t possibly compare to you, Nancy.
We have faith only in your abilities,” Mrs. Fairclough declared, her face taut with
disapproval.
Mr. Fairclough exploded.
“Nonsense! How shameless and self-righteous she is! My daughter's wedding is
no child's play. It must be the talk of Preagend. I won't allow her to craft the
jewelry for my daughter.”
Millie remained unfazed by their rejection and derision. Calmly, she pulled out her
phone and accessed her photo album.
“Mr. Fairclough, Mrs. Fairclough, please contain your anger. Examine my designs
first. If, after viewing my previous works, you still object to me undertaking this
design, I will depart without further ado.”
