Love consumed her in flames but she emerged untouched

The alarm was initially at 7 a.m., but Millie couldn’t peel herself out of bed in time, causing her and her friend to dash frantically, fearing they’d be late.

“Which floor?” Roseanne glanced at her before asking.

“Second floor” In contrast to her calm demeanor, Millie, running in a less than graceful manner, secretly clenched her teeth.

Stepping out of the elevator together, Millie noticed something odd when she saw the study materials in Roseanne’s hand. “You’re here to study at the library, too? Don’t tell me you’re thinking about grad school?”

Roseanne kept, and her expression was unreadable.

Millie immediately downloaded a cooking app that detailed every step. After finding a seat, she spent the entire morning engrossed in it without flipping open her book.

About to offer some advice, her roommate thought better of it. After all, Millie had snagged a rich guy. Her future was bright, so why bother?3
