“Who gave you the audacity to pry open Mr. McMillian's cabinet?" The girl exclaimed, disbelief etched


on her face.


That cabinet had arrived a few months ago, sparking a flurry of speculation amongst the girls. They


guessed it contained some crucial secrets of Mr. McMillian’s.


Now, Arabella stood before the cabinet, its door swung open. While one couldn't see what was inside


from this angle, Arabella's action inevitably triqgered imaginations.


"What did you steal from Mr. McMillian's cabinet, you little thief?"


"Calm down, I was just putting something inside." Arabella replied nonchalantly, closing the cabinet


door. "Are you looking for Romeo?"


“You dare to call Mr. McMillian by his first name! You have some nerve'" The girl immediately took out


her phone and shot a WhatsApp message to the head of security. “What did you put in there? Trying to


frame someone? You're in big trouble, causing a ruckus on McMillian Corporation grounds.”


“Just some snacks.” Arabella responded, her expression unchanging.


Hearing this, the girl burst into laughter, "You're giving snacks to Mr. McMillian? Can't you just leave


them on his desk? And by the way, who are you?"


Before Arabella could respond, the girl accused her again. "Are you a spy sent by another corporation


trying to steal McMillian Corporation's secrets or frame someone? I’ve seen your kind before!"


The head of security, alerted by the girl's WhatsApp message, arrived promptly with his team.


“Ms. Maria, what's the matter?" He asked.


“This woman sneaked into Mr. McMillian’s office, even dared to open his cabinet. She's either a thief or


a spy, sent by some other corporation. Arrest her now, and we'll interrogate her once Mr. McMillian is


free."


"Understood, Ms. Maria.” The security head immediately ordered his men into action.


“You have misunderstood.” Arabella, unfazed, calmly explained. "I'm Romeo's fiancée. I was simply


tidying up the snacks on his desk."


“You? Mr. McMillian’s fiancée?" Maria Paisley scoffed. “Why not take a look at yourself in the mirror?


What makes you think you are Mr. McMillian’s type?”


The audacity of this girl, claiming to be Mr. McMillian's fiancée right off the bat.


The security chief and his men also clearly didn't believe her. Everyone knew that Mr. McMillian was


engaged to Serena Collins, the heiress of the Collins family.


The phone on the coffee table vibrated a few times. Arabella picked it up to see a message from the


McMillian Corporation executive group. This was Romeo's phone. She didn’t read the message,


instead, she put the phone away, planning to have a proper conversation with them later.


“You stole Mr. McMillian's phone as well? You have some nerve!" Maria commanded, “Arrest her!”


A few security quards lunged at Arabella, but she easily sidestepped them. "You might want to ask


Romeo or Carl first, whether you can arrest someone from his office.’


“Who are you trying to scare? A petty thief acting all high and mighty! We're not letting you go today.


We'll not only arrest you but also call the police to take you in!”
