Chapter 97 - Millicent

last update Last Updated: 2025-02-15 23:56:00

Millicent was beginning to regret making the mistake of inviting Isaac to her family's reunion. Not because she didn't want him around or because it didn't feel right to have him around while she was celebrating an achievement as extraordinary as that promotion.

It was the endless interrogation from her father and grandfather that was making her rethink whether, in fact, it wouldn't have been better to leave her celebration with Isaac away from the eyes of her family.

“And when exactly did you two meet?” her grandfather asked, his tone sweet, although clearly he was trying to probe her answers and find some evidence that Isaac had been trying to seduce her from the beginning.

“I already told you, Grandpa. We were in the same class for years when we were in school and, after what happened with Austin, it was kind of inevitable that we would get closer.” She shrugged her shoulders “And don't make that face. He's not just a good business partner. He is a good friend.”

    If, three months ago, someone had told Millicent she would be that restless just a few hours after retrieving her project, she would have said it was impossible. Yet there she was, staring at her own reflection in her dressing table mirror, while her feet tapped nervously against the floor. She tried to remind herself this was a night of joy and she should be going to sleep peacefully knowing that everything she had worked so hard on was now back in her hands, but…For some reason, the words she had heard from Isaac during dinner seemed to have stuck in her mind like parasites, preventing her from feeling truly happy. Or, at least, in peace. The way he had seemed so determined and resigned to the idea of ​​walking away from her... As if that were a certainty and not a distant possibility... That would probably haunt her for the rest of the morning until the next day, when she could finally question him about it...God, had she really planned on sleeping that night? The idea seemed rid

    Millicent’s determination seemed unshakable the entire way to Isaac’s apartment. But the moment she found herself standing in front of the lobby of his building, her courage slipped a little out of reach, leaving her more restless than she should have been. It wasn't like she was going to talk about feelings with Isaac that night. Or any other night, actually. Millie had realized she become too attached to him, but that was enough. She wouldn't overthink it and perhaps discover those feelings had deeper roots than she was prepared to deal with. Before everything between them started, she had made Isaac a promise that she would be the business partner he was looking for: cold and objective. Not a stupid, emotional girl who was blurring the fine line between their friendship and their physical relationship. Isaac would always be important to her, but Millicent needed to stop herself before it went too far.That was why she was there, at that moment. It was her responsibility to curb h

    It was quite ironic that, on the same day Millicent had officially introduced Isaac to her family, she also had the opportunity to meet the only member of his family she had never laid eyes on. However, very different from the warm and welcoming atmosphere of her family's dinner, the room seemed to become almost funereal when Isaac said his uncle's name, almost as if he and Dominic considered Vincent's presence a bad omen. Still, she cleared her throat, smiling as she stepped forward, extending her hand friendly toward Isaac's uncle.“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Carnby. My name is Millicent Bianchi, but I see you already know that.” She remained standing there for some time, pretending to ignore the tension in the air while Vincent just looked deep into her eyes, making no move to accept her greeting.Well, at least now she knew who Isaac had inherited his piercing looks from. In fact, it was now clearer than ever to Millicent that the only trait Isaac had inherited from Evan was

    “And, that’s the end of my proposal.” With a smile, Millicent turned off the projector in the middle of the meeting room, causing all the other project leaders to nod at each other, looking pleased with her presentation “I have already commissioned other audience profile surveys for drama and romance films and series, but for now, this is what I bring to you to show this is an excellent niche for us to invest, in the coming years.”She tried to be as discreet as possible as she let out the breath she was holding, while her new co-workers chatted among themselves, with promising expressions on their faces. It wasn't the first time she'd met all those project managers, of course. As Isaac’s supervisor, she had many meetings with them over those two months to receive reports and find out about all the productions that were being made. However, she hadn't been able to

    “What…?” Jasmine’s voice shook, not just with shock but also with disgust “What did you just say about me…?”“No more trying to pretend you’re just an innocent maiden who was seduced by a taken man, Jasmine!” one of the women sighed “We may have believed this before, but you clearly have a serious preference for rich, married men. What else do you want us to think about you?”“I would never stay with that old man!” she assured and, to Millicent’s surprise, her words seemed genuine, although there was certainly no way to fully believe anything that came out of Jasmine’s mouth “What do you think I am? A slut?!”“And you want us to just believe that, even though Mr. Davis clearly detests you, he's still keeping you in a job just out of sheer generosity? Oh, for God's sake, Jasmine! I once thought you were a really good person, but now your innocent face irritates me! Don't pretend you don't know that Mr. Davis has a sick wife at home! Everyone knows she is extremely fragile! Still, you g

    “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

    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

    “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?

    So many things had happened lately that Millicent had almost forgotten that there was a new project waiting for approval… In a meeting with Miles Hughes waiting to drain every last drop of her energy.“Would you like me to explain any details of the project further, Mr. Hughes?” Millicent asked in the friendliest way possible, even though the expression on Isaac's accountant's face wasn't friendly at all. "No." was all he replied, with his eyes focused only on the notes he had taken during the entire hour in which Millicent had presented her new project. “There is nothing else that needs to be analyzed about your project in matters of content. The question that needs to be discussed is whether all these ideas are financially viable.”“Indeed…” Evan, who seemed to have purposely sat close to Miles as if he wanted to watch from the sidelines as Millie’s idea was denied, grunted, “I believe that if the issue was just Miss Bianchi or any other project manager talking about their hopes fo

    “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
