Chapter 1290
Millie sat down and immediately got to work. Her absence these days had delayed her work a lot, and now she had a lot of catching up to do.
Some time after, murmurs broke out in the design department.
“Look who’s coming?”
Upon hearing the whispers, Millie raised her head and saw Shera coming to their department with a donation box.
She was wearing ten-inch white heels, an elaborate makeup, and a pink suit that made her look amazing.
Shera smiled as she swept her gaze around.
“Excuse me, I’d like your attention for a few minutes. The charity department is preparing necessities for the unfortunate children in the countryside. We hope you can support this movement.”

The Thomas Group was always doing well in charity. When it came to raising money for such things, everyone always chipped in.
However, the person who came to present it to them today wasn’t exactly anybody. They unconsciously looked at Millie, feeling an electric charge in the air.
“There are dozens of people on the charity department. Why did she come here herself to do the fundraiser?”
“I think she did it on purpose.”
When no one made a move to say or do anything, Shera walked up to Millie.
“Do you want to take part in this project and give some love?”
They had become the centre of everyone’s attention.
Shera couldn’t help staring at Millie. Her skin was clear, and her features were three-dimensional. She was really good looking. Apart from her beauty, she was a famous jewellery designer. She had never been jealous of other women before, but she sure was jealous of Millie.
She had met women who were prettier than her, but they were never more talented than she was. Millie was a different story. She was both beautiful and talented.
Millie put down the design pen she was holding and took out her purse. She took out all the cash that was in it and put in the donation box. It was about one thousand dollars.
“That much?” Shera asked.
Millie had no desire to talk to Shera.
“Yes. Now I need to get back to work. I’d appreciate it if you keep quiet.”
Millie knew that Shera deliberately came to the design department just to provoke her, create a sensation and send tongues wagging.
“I thank you on behalf of the children in the countryside. You’re the only one who comes from the countryside. You must know their difficulties. Others can’t really empathize like you.”
It sounded like a compliment, but Shera was obviously berating and mocking her.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Millie didn’t give her the time of day. She took out her earphones and put them on. Then, she picked up her design pen and continued drawing a ring.
