Chapter 160
Millieâs tiny waist was something to behold. Her curves swayed as she strutted; it was eyeâcatching.
âHey, isnât she Millie Caldwell?â
âShe is as pretty as the Aâlisters.â
âThomas, will I ever see the day when you get her to enter the industry?â
The guests gossiped and joked at Thomas and Millie.
Thomas shot them a playful glare. Holding Millieâs hand, he addressed everyone, âI donât think we need an introduction here.â
The guests laughed raucously. âOf course! Everyone knows Millie Caldwell.â
Millie smiled warmly at them. âLadies and gentlemen, Iâm sorry for crashing your party last minute.â
âDonât fret about it. Letâs take a seat!â One of the producers pointed at the table, motioning Millie to sit.
She nodded and settled into her seat alongside Thomas.
Thomas and the producers had a discussion about the preparation for a period drama. As a company owner, Thomas attempted to win the female lead role for the artist under his company.
The guests at the dinner were renowned figures in the entertainment industry, with an average age of 50. Most of the guests were men. The few ladies in a..endance. seemed gentle and easygoing.
Millie didnât interrupt the conversations. She sat and listened silently, curious to learn if the entertainment industry was indeed as problematic as rumored.
Halfway, someone took a seat by her side and handed her a glass of alcohol. âMs. Caldwell, letâs have a drink together.â
She shook her head at the gentleman in his 50s. âIâm sorry, but I canât drink because Iâm driving today.â
Thomas overheard the exchange and turned to look. He beamed at the man, saying,â Mr. Anderson, drink with me! Iâll take Millsâ place!â

While speaking, Thomas took the glass from Gideon Anderson and downed the contents. Gideon sat there with a polite smile.
Later, he pouted at Thomas and said, âNo one cares about drinking with you.
It was only fun drinking with women.
A female guest chimed in with a laugh, âRight, Tom. Youâre no fun to drink with. Get Mills to drink with him!â
The woman, seemingly intending to persuade Millie to drink, added, âYou should let loose since youâre here! Drink up and have some fun!â
Thomas exchanged a glance with Millie as he started regretting bringing Millie to dinner. It hadnât occurred to him that Millie was too attractive for the lustful producers to pass on her.
Thomas was riddled with remorse. Sensing his distress, Millie replied to the guests,â Sure.â
She said to Gideon, âMr. Anderson, Iâll drink with you if thatâs what you wish.â
Smiling, she poured herself a shot of vodka. However, she pushed the shot glass to Gideon. âI have a rule for those whoâd like to drink with me.â
âA rule?â Gideonâs interest was piqued. The more mysterious a lady conducted herself, the more interested he became.
Pointing at the glass, she said in an amused drawl, âHave a drink. Prove your sincerity to me.â
Gideon couldnât stifle a laugh. âWhy do I need to prove my sincerity? Weâre just drinking.â
âOh, you might not know, but there are many rules in drinking.â
