Chapter: 97
Claudia was a wise woman. She had long seen through Rhea and seen the type of woman she was. That was why she always maintained a nonchalant attitude towards her and kept her at arm’s length.
“You arrogant bitch! You really need to be taught a lesson. If we don’t show her her place now, she'll truly begin to believe that she is the superior Mrs. Thomas.”
“We should definitely teach her a lesson and show her how to behave next time.”
As Rhea’s minions spoke, they surrounded Millie in a threatening stance.
Millie raised an eyebrow in surprise. Did they really want to beat her up?
“What's this?” Millie chucked dryly. “If we’re going to have a fight, I'll gladly participate.”
She looked at the table and picked up the fruit knife on it, weighed it for a second in her hand, and started spinning in around her fingertips.
The sound of the knife cutting through the air several times filled the room and chilled the girls who were beginning to lose their courage.
They stared at Millie in shock. How were they going to attack Millie now that she seemed to possess real combating skills? “Miss Evans...” the two women stammered, looking towards Rhea questioningly.
Seeing that knife twirl around Millie’s hand was petrifying.
With an intimidating air about her, Millie stood up and walked toward the two girls.
“Let's give it a try, huh? Just a small cut on your delicate skin and your appearance will be ruined.”
Millie’s words were hair-raising. The two girls unconsciously stepped back. The thought of their faces getting ruined was enough to scare them away. Rhea glanced at the two incompetent girls, but couldn’t do anything, as she too was scared.
“Just you wait, Millie! I'll get back at you!” Rhea grumbled and led the other two girls out, more humiliated than she was when she went in there.
Inside the lounge, Millie smiled triumphantly. Her skills of spinning pens around her fingers had definitely come in handy.
At the other side of the door, Rhea and her ladies were breathing heavily, feeling somewhat relieved to have escaped that. “That knife looked really intimidating in her hand. We can let her go for now. She was just lucky.” “It's better this way. We'll get even with her when she doesn’t have a knife to defend herself.”
Rhea snorted, more annoyed with each word that left their lips. They were both useless cowards, making excuses for their lack of bravery. She had to find another way to deal with Millie quickly.
Her eyes unconsciously moved to the two heavy red wooden doors behind her, then at Millie who was facing away from them.
She smiled and said in a low voice, “We have an opportunity right here. The lounge is secluded. No one will come this way if we're lucky. Let’s lock her inside and cut off the power inside. She won't be able to come out until someone finds her. That won't be soon for sure.” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
