“Keep tracking her. We'll act when the opportunity arises.”
After Emerie left, Nancy's anger flared once more. Grabbing her pen, she
resolved to design the starry sky series.
The next day in the countryside, Millie's grandmother asked her to pack up and
return to Preagend.
“Millie, I'm fine. You should head back to work.”
Millie's hesitation was clear. Despite her pending design work, she wanted to
remain with her grandmother.
Bruce caught Millie’s uncertainty and approached, saying, “I haven't eaten
enough here, and grandma wants to send me away?”
The grandmother looked embarrassed. It was Bruce's first time in the
countryside, and she was already pushing him away. How thoughtless of her.
“I was inconsiderate. The weather is fine today, Millie. Why don’t you take Bruce
for a walk nearby?”
Millie and Bruce strolled to a sprawling grassland. After Millie settled on the lawn,
Bruce sat beside her, resting his chin on his hand as he studied her.

“You're pondering the jewelry design for a wedding. Are you worried you'll run out
of time when you get back?”
Millie's eyes widened as she turned to him. How did he know about the wedding
jewelry? Had he been spying on her?
Bruce's wicked smile suggested he knew her thoughts.
“I know even more. Care to hear some secrets about Marcus?”
He clearly admitted to watching her.
Millie’s brow furrowed.
“I don’t want to know. I'm not interested in your affairs.”
Though curiosity tugged at her, she knew that understanding the cousins’
differences wouldn't help mend their relationship.
Bruce was taken aback by Millie's lack of interest. He snapped his fingers, a bit
surprised. Wasn't it said that women were inherently curious?
“Smart,” he commented.
