Chapter 29 - Millicent

last update Last Updated: 2024-12-18 18:07:14

“You… How could you…?” Austin looked around, almost as if he wanted to remind her they weren't alone there and there were several dozen tongues to criticize her if she disdained of the romantic moment he had created.

And, on any other occasion, perhaps Millicent might even give in to the pressure of being in public, just as she had when he had proposed. However, Austin probably didn't imagine the disgust she felt whenever she had the displeasure of coming face to face with him. It was what made her sure she wouldn't say yes to him again, even if her life depended on it. 

“You can save all your romanticism for Jasmine. That's all I have to give you: the possibility of leaving a relationship you were in just out of obligation and being with who you really want.” Millie shrugged, turning away from him “Isn't that en

    Millicent had only felt this nervous on her first day of work in that building, over a year ago. But, well, if she was fair to herself, this was indeed a new first day of work for her, now as a supervisor sent by Isaac. Gosh, her hands were as cold as a corpse's, but even so she refused to stop once again on her way or hide in some bathroom to catch her breath.This was her chance to prove her worth. She couldn't chicken out or let others realize she was the one who was most suspicious about her own abilities.Taking a deep breath, Millicent straightened her shoulders and tried not to get distracted by her own thoughts again the moment the elevator opened. She had been working on that same floor for months, but somehow, now that immensity of tables and workstations seemed new and even more intimidating than before. Especially when, the instant she approached where all her other co-workers were, their conversations ended abruptly in the same instant, as all eyes in the place turned to

    The time of that meeting seemed to drag on a hundred times longer than usual. And, even though Millicent was feeling like she was swallowing lava and being burned from the inside out while everyone there paid no attention to a single word coming from her, she at least wasn't the only one feeling uncomfortable.“That’s also trash.” Laura threw another script back on the table, probably the thousandth since the meeting had started “Is that all you have to present?”“What do you think about us reviewing some details of the most promising scripts?” Austin's smile crooked even more as he tried at all costs to avoid saying that what she called trash was his best bet “I'm sure if we read it a second time and you can give us some advice, we can come up with a work worthy of your work...”“I’ll take that as a yes.” Mrs. Poulin rolled her eyes, rising from her chair “My expectations were low, but you managed to lower them even further today. If you really want to make a successful production tha

    “If you want to appoint someone else more capable than me to occupy such an important position… I will understand.” Those words hung between the two of them for what seemed like an eternity and Millicent could only wait for the moment when he would agree. Who knows, he might even scold her and give her a piece of his mind about how sorry he was for entrusting her with a responsibility of that magnitude. However, all she received was silence, until he finally responded, with a tone that sounded more like a sigh than a criticism.“I thought you understood the terms of our contract. Once you have become my partner, I will not accept you going back on your word.”“What?! No, I'm not talking about our contract…” Millicent gasped, quickly turning to face him again “I'm talking about…”“Good, because I'm also not talking about your father's investment in my company.” Isaac crossed his arms, watching her in a way that made Millicent feel like she was about to take a test with a very demandin

    “Here is your table, Mr. and Miss. Bianchi. I hope you like the location. We reserved this place just for you, the moment we found out you were coming to visit us.” the very attentive maître said, pulling out the chair so Millicent could sit at the table in front of the huge glass wall, overlooking the restaurant's garden.“This place was really charming.” Millicent praised, looking around at the latest venture the Bianchi Group had debuted in the city.“It’s flattering to receive these words from you, Miss. Bianchi. Thanks to Mr. Bianchi's investment, we were able to transform the small family kitchen that my grandfather started into a real restaurant. We have expectations to compete for our first Michelin star next year.” the old man said proudly “But please don't let me bore you with my chatter. Can I start by bringing you some appetizers?”“Yes. We’ll probably be ready to order by the time you get back.” Massimo said, although his attention was fully focused on Millicent even befor

    Millicent’s breath seemed to be caught in her throat and a drop of cold sweat was running down her spine. She thought she would only feel nervous like that again when it was time to participate in another meeting with Austin and his team. Yet there she was, sitting in the waiting room of Isaac's office, feeling like her heart was about to burst out of her chest.Was she really about to do that? Wasn't it a bit too far, even if it was to punish Austin?“Mr. Carnby will see you now, Miss. Bianchi.” the smiling receptionist suddenly appeared, as if knowing she was about to panic and run away “Please, follow me.”“Thank you.” she panted, trying to at least calm her breathing as she followed the woman to the office she had only been to once. It was almost ironic that, once again, she was there, terribly nervous and with an indecent proposal for Isaac in hand. Well, this time, truly indecent.“Miss. Bianchi is here, Mr. Carnby.” the receptionist announced, opening the room door to let Milli

    Millicent was less nervous for Austin's second team meeting than she thought she would be. Not that anyone was noticing that, of course.Like last time, no one even looked in her direction as she sat at the conference table, reviewing some things on the tablet in her hands, while everyone there chatted and debated their ideas heatedly, clearly thinking that this would be the day when that they would finally reach a consensus that would satisfy Mrs. Poulin. As for Millicent, she just remained completely silent when Austin cleared his throat, catching the attention of everyone there.“Good to have you all here again, guys. Today, our goal will be to polish some of our ideas to satisfy Ms. Poulin. I know she had some strong opinions at our last meeting, but don't let that make you doubt the potential of what we're building here. You know how stubborn a

    “There you are.” a voice stopped Millicent just as she was getting ready to grab the cup of coffee she had just brewed from the coffee maker “I just heard you caused quite a commotion at the meeting today.” Cassidy commented, causing Millie to turn to her with a smile.“I wouldn’t say it was a commotion. It was another lesson.” she shrugged “I guess they won’t pretend I’m not there from now on. Not if they don’t want to miss the next budget news.”“I'm proud of you.” her best friend commented, with her eyebrows raised “But, I'm also surprised, I have to admit. If I know those bastards, especially Austin, they must have said all kinds of barbarities to convince you to back down, right?”“They certainly tried, but, I realized I have to learn to deal with the fact not everyone is going to like me… And I don't need to d

    “You can do that, Millicent. Just breathe. In... and Out…” Millicent muttered to herself repeatedly, focusing only on controlling her breathing to stop herself from overthinking. Around her, the glass interior of the elevator allowed her to practically see the entire city from above. The building where Isaac's apartment was located was certainly a far cry from the usual luxury condominiums where most of the people she knew lived, but it was quite a charming place. Although everything there is extremely new and modern, probably recently built, something about the quite remote location and quiet neighborhood reminded Millicent of her family's farm, on the edge of the city. It was a good place to have… Privacy.Damn, here was her mind taking her too far again. Finally, the elevator doors opened and, with one last deep breath, she took her first step toward Isaac. At least it wouldn't be a complete surprise for him to see her there. The building's security team asked him if they could le

    “You look quite confused.” Isaac chuckled, causing Millicent to blink slowly, looking up from his laptop screen so she could look at him.“Well… I feel confused, to be honest.” She shrugged her shoulders “Why exactly are we looking at a junkyard website?” As if the two needed a moment to absorb that information, their eyes turned to the colorful website that Isaac had placed there. It was quite rudimentary and clearly hadn't been through the hands of a professional programmer. The colors would hurt anyone's eyes, the font was weird and there was terrible visual pollution, especially because there were hundreds of pop-ups showing old cars on the screen, all with photos without any resolution.“It doesn't look very promising, I know. But it will be much more useful to us than all those spreadsheets, I guarantee it.” Isaac scrolled down the site, revealing more and more poorly taken photos of old and pre-owned cars that would probably benefit more from recycling than from being sold in t

    "Leave me alone." Isaac's uncle growled, but Millicent was too worried to be intimidated.“Oh, my God. Here, let me help you.” She used all her strength to pull him up, placing him back on his wobbly legs until she could make him lean on her like a crutch “What are you feeling? Where is Dominic? We should call an ambulance.”“No ambulance shit. This is normal. And Dominic is visiting his girlfriend at her work or something. Now leave me alone.”“Mr. Carnby, you are bleeding! There is no way this is normal!” Millicent gasped “You can’t just stay like that at home. You need to go to a doctor and make sure this isn't a hemorrhage or something. Come on. I’m going to leave you sitting on the couch and wake Isaac up so we can take you to the nearest hospita

    “Gosh, my brain feels like it’s going to melt if I have to look at one more financial graph.” Millicent sighed closing her eyes before collapsing on Isaac’s bed, exhausted “I think we should take a break.”“Austin didn’t even need to put in the way for us to get this data for so long.” Isaac grumbled, laying down by her side and pulling her close “Comparing all these charts would drive anyone crazy before any discrepancies could even be found.”“Well, I guess that’s the reason we have such a large Finance Department. Worrying about every detail of the money coming in and the money going out is not easy.” she tried to joke, but Isaac obviously didn't miss the concern in her voice.“You couldn’t convince that stupid old man to tame his daughter?” he snorted, as if he was just as annoyed by Jasmine's situation as she was.“He spent the entire afternoon avoiding me and when I finally managed to catch up to him at the end of the day, all he did was whine about how his wife might even die if

    “So, I present to you the new junior supervisor of the Finance Department, Jasmine Easton.” As she watched Mr. Davis present Jasmine in front of practically all the employees in that wing of the offices, Millicent had no other reaction than clapping her hands without any enthusiasm. Around her, few people imitated her, as most were just shocked and with their mouths wide open, staring at Mr. Davis as if they were waiting for the moment when he would say it was all just a big joke. However, he just remained there, frozen behind Jasmine, with his haggard and exhausted expression, as if he hadn't slept in days.“Thanks for your words and for trusting me with a role like this, Mr. Davis.” Jasmine smiled the biggest smile Millicent had ever seen her give to anyone “It's always exciting to see how this company values ​​the good work of its employees. I hope that, just as I got my chance today with a lot of effort, everyone else will too, someday.” She ran her disdainful gaze around the enti

    "Shit!" Ugo cursed, turning to Isaac and Vincent with extreme impatience “Did you want time to think about whether you're going to be cowards or not? You just got it. I will let you know when our next meeting will be, where I hope to receive the answer I am waiting for.” he threatened “Just teach your boy that the only safe side of this story is by my side, Vince. You, better than anyone, know this.”“Uh… Boss…” the security guard gulped “We… We also have another situation. It appears that a… Guest arrived earlier than expected. And he wants to talk to you.”"Guest?" Ugo's eyes darted towards Isaac and Vincent, clearly worried about who it could be "Who?"“Open the door, Ugo.” a deep voice sounded from the other side of the armored door, standing out even through the noise of the music blaring downstairs “You said you would welcome me with honors if I returned to America. I'm waiting.”“Nikolaev?!” Ugo grunted, surprised, and Isaac noticed his uncle tense up on his side “Shit. At a ti

    “Are you talking about killing Massimo Bianchi?” Vincent questioned coldly, pretending to lean on Isaac's shoulder so he could straighten up on the couch, a silent warning for him to control his reactions "Do you even know what that would entail?"“I see you’re still pessimistic, Vince.” Ugo laughed, lighting a cigar and taking a long drag. “But, hey, don't be like that. My father and grandfather made big bets while they were alive, too. The world is a question of knowing where exactly to invest your efforts.”“But they both died in the retaliation of those high stakes, right?” Isaac’s uncle raised an eyebrow, managing to perfectly maintain his posture, as if he was actually in Ugo’s game and thinking about the matter “Are you willing to pay the price and want to convince us to be too?”“Do you think I would go into this if it wasn’t a good plan? I'm not a crazy dog ​​like my father and brother were. I have brains and I don't let a detail or a slight offense become a fight between fami

    Jasmine Easton was Fiona's granddaughter.While reading the message that Millicent had just sent, Isaac couldn't say he hadn't already suspected that before. And not just because those two women had similarities in appearance that could go unnoticed due to all the plastic surgery on Fiona’s face. The truth is that there seemed to be a pattern of behavior in everyone who was raised among the Greco, even if not directly. Apparently, there was a tendency for them to become insane or acquire that Machiavellian personality. It wasn't as if they were all intelligent, as Fiona's granddaughter was certainly not an example of genius, but she had clearly inherited her grandmother's greed and abilities to make other people's lives hell.“And are you really going to keep Davis’s secret?” he typed back to her quickly “This would be a good opportunity to prove to everyone that Jasmine has been manipulating this situation from the beginning and not just to keep her own job. Plus, I'm sure your father

    “I already told you that nothing about what your grandmother told you about that day is true!” Mr. Davis sighed, and Millicent didn't even have time to recover from the shock of what she had just heard, when he continued “I never had anything to do with the fact that car rolled over with Sylvia in it. You know very well she was unstable even before you were born. She was the only one who jumped on the wheel and caused that accident…”“And you want me to believe that neither of you were disappointed when you found out that I had managed to be born, even after that?” Jasmine growled and, even though she couldn't see Mr. Davis's face, Millicent knew the answer just by the fury in Jasmine's next words “You fucking bastards! If you didn't want to have a daughter to be responsible for, you shouldn't have gone around fucking around in the first place…”“You know very well that it was just one night! A single night that was completely planned by your grandmother!” the man grunted, as if only
