“You’re quite the tease, aren’t you?”
But she had to admit Dottie’s observation was accurate.
The landscape of Summernear Resort had been so enchanting, with its captivating sunsets, romantic fields of blossoms, and serene lakes.
Amid such beauty, handholding and kisses were practically inevitable.
Millie couldn’t help but recollect the countless times they’d locked lips, perhaps at least fifty times. The realization made her wonder if she’d somehow turned into a kissing enthusiast.
In Marcus’s bustling office, the hectic pace of his day left no time for a trip to the canteen. He requested Trenton to bring some food to his office, a swift solution that allowed him to maintain his productivity.

Swiftly signing off on a financial report, he moved on to another matter.
“There’s a rainstorm expected in Peach Town in the next two days, Mr. Thomas. Are you certain you must attend the ceremony in person?
Perhaps you could delegate it to the vice president?”
Trenton was diligently checking the weather forecast for Peach Town on his iPad, clearly worried about the impending storm. NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
The town was quite remote, and a two-day round trip would be quite a challenge, especially if it coincided with the impending rainstorm.
Marcus, intrigued by Trenton’s concern, took the iPad from him to assess the weather conditions. The forecast indeed showed heavy rain anticipated in Peach Town for tomorrow afternoon.
A frown formed on Marcus’s face as he contemplated the situation…
“I’ll depart as soon as the ceremony concludes to avoid the rainstorm.”
The project was a vital charity initiative, heavily emphasized by government leaders and the media alike. It was a matter of great importance to the reputation of the Thomas Group, making his presence indispensable.
“Very well.”
Having completed his work, Marcus was ready for a brief meal. Trenton promptly fetched the lunchbox and presented it to him.
“Mr. Thomas, here’s your lunch. We should be off once you’ve finished.”
As Marcus began to eat, he inquired, “Where is Millie?”
He wanted to see her before his departure.
Trenton checked his watch and replied, “She should be having lunch in the canteen right now.”
Marcus decided to take the food and visit the canteen.
He stood up, buttoned his coat and headed out.
Following lunch, Millie intended to return to the design department when Trenton approached her. He guided her to a private room on the second floor, offering her an intriguing surprise.
