Chapter 532

Chapter 532:
It was sometimes hard to target one person, but with two, there were more opportunities. She could now easily use Eva’s scandals to get to Millie.
Vivian had long suspected Eva was holding out for a better offer.
Vivian had noticed the way Eva watched Charles while still entertaining her team. Eva was probably waiting for Charles to make the next move back then. Maybe the collaboration with Millie had come as a perk from Charles’ side.
The idea settled her nerves.
“Today’s success wasn’t even yours, Millie,” she muttered. “Myron handed it to you. Don’t think you can outshine me.”
In a private dining room, glasses clinked together.
“Cheers!”
Another celebration was underway.
This time, all the Elliott siblings were present. Ari had passed her hospital checkup and could be discharged, though she still needed care.
Everyone had shown up.
“I knew you could pull it off, Millie!” Alexia beamed. “You have no idea—so many of our coworkers were saying today they wanted to buy what you were endorsing.”
Giffard took a long drink and nodded. “Same in my department. The guys are talking about buying them for their girlfriends.”
Laughter rippled around the room.
No one seemed happier than Charles. He stood in the middle of the room, laughing heartily with his hands on his hips.
“Honestly, I think Oakley’s lost his mind,” he said. “He tried to sabotage Millie. Look how that turned out. Totally blew up in his face.”
He turned to Millie, grinning. “When he came crawling back, I gave him a real roasting. Grandpa even chewed him out for embarrassing himself!”

“He deserved it,” Jayceon added, and everyone burst out laughing.
Millie was the star of the evening. She took a long sip of wine, her heart light with satisfaction.
She mingled and chatted, keeping the atmosphere warm and lively. The launch had gone well. It wasn’t a final victory, not yet, but it was a strong beginning. That was enough to ease her mind for now.
After dancing with Charles and Alexia, she made her way back to Ari. Nearby, Myron kept his eyes glued to Millie the entire time, occasionally glancing over to check on the little girl. Updates are released by.net
Ari, content in her seat, nibbled on snacks and chatted with Myron.
“Myron,” she said, “I’m just like other kids now. Can I come visit your house more? I want to see your cat.” She looked at him with wide, hopeful eyes.
“Last time, Jayceon showed me a video of Kiki learning something new,” she added. “But I didn’t get to watch it.”
Myron smiled and gently wiped crumbs from her mouth. “Of course,” he said warmly. “If Millie says yes, I’ll take you to see Kiki.” Ari turned to Millie with an eager look.
