Winston walked to the spot where Millie had just been, only to discover that she had already gone.

Winston frowned and looked around. The waiter approached and inquired in Encerian, "Sir, how may I assist you?"

Winston asked, "Where's the woman who was sitting here?"

The waiter pointed outside. "She just left."

Winston rushed outside when he caught sight of Millie getting into the car. He chased after her, for her figure was a lot like Millie's.

Just as he was about to drive after her, Eli approached and asked, "Mr. Greer, is everything alright?"

"I think I spotted Millie," he replied coldly.

Eli felt perplexed. "Ms. Caldwell? That can't be right. I just visited her at the hospital before coming here. She should be in the hospital now."

Eli glanced over the direction Winston was looking and said firmly, "Mr. Greer, we have other pressing matters to attend to. Let's not waste any time."

Winston remained silent. What Eli said made sense. It seemed clear that Millie should be in

    Millie smiled wryly at the unique way they hosted the party.Marvin asked, "Boss, what's your budget for the Aspher? The starting price tonight is two million yewros, which is equal to one million dollars.""What? Aspher is such a valuable medicinal material, and it starts at just one million?" Millie was taken aback. In Chirea, it would easily start at five million."This businessman truly lacks good judgment. He not only decided to bring along such a valuable medicinal material for an auction in a foreign country, but he also set the starting price at only one million." Millie sighed in disappointment and couldn't resist labeling him as foolish.While Winston was making his way back to the hotel, he suddenly let out a powerful sneeze inside the car.Eli glanced back with concern and asked, "Mr. Greer, are you feeling unwell?"Winston frowned and rubbed his nose. He felt fine.Millie continued, "If he possesses good judgment, then he must be intentionally reducing the price to

    When Millie and Marvin arrived at the venue, they noticed everyone was wearing masks. They were only there for the auction and didn't care for socializing. Hence, they found a quiet spot to sit and wait for the long half hour to pass.Suddenly, someone called out, "William!"Millie swirled her glass of wine and looked out calmly. Everyone was wearing a mask except William. "Why isn't he wearing one?" she wondered.Then, she witnessed the person in charge handing the mask to William, who promptly put it on.At that moment, Millie suddenly noticed someone standing beside William. The man was impeccably dressed in a suit, radiating an undeniable elegance. Although his mask covered half of his face, it was evident that he was attractive. Millie narrowed her eyes, struggling to identify his identity.The man caught Millie's gaze and immediately turned toward her. Their eyes locked, and Millie was stunned for a moment.The man received a glass of champagne from the waiter while keepi

    Millie's exquisite figure and graceful stride captivated everyone's attention, including William. He was surprised. "Who is she?""Winston, this woman is absolutely stunning," William said in broken Chirean.Winston looked up, and his gaze locked onto Millie's back. He silently observed her. William leisurely sipped his wine, glancing at Millie's back. After a moment, he declared with a smirk, "I'll go say hello."Winston followed.Millie washed her hands and leaned against the sink, feeling tired. She caught a flight here and didn't rest upon arrival. After having afternoon tea, she went straight to the auction. She planned to fly back overnight later and give the Aspher to Arthur in the morning. It was important to give it to him as soon as possible to ease his mind as it was a valuable medicinal material.As Millie rubbed her neck, she caught sight of William leaning against the door. William, with his typical Musbanian traits, possessed blonde hair, a slender frame, and

    As Millie stepped into the auction hall, Marvin returned. "Boss, I have some bad news."Millie stared at him. "What is it?""We don't have an identification, and we came here suddenly today without informing them in advance. Our funds are restricted." Marvin frowned, feeling helpless.Millie was upset. "Why did you make such a basic mistake? Don't you know why we are here today?"They had come for the auction, which would undoubtedly cost a lot of money. If their funds were limited, they might not be able to outbid anyone for the Aspher. They had finally located the herb, but it would surely be troublesome if it ended up in someone else's possession."Boss, we rushed here too quickly. It's my fault." Marvin apologized, feeling ashamed.After a brief pause, Millie contemplated the Aspher's low bid, then calmly responded, "Let's see how this plays out."Nevertheless, they continued with the bidding. If the other bidders didn't know about the herb, Millie might just be able to win

    Marvin chuckled. "Indeed."Simultaneously, the man across from Millie's room suddenly sneezed. The person next to him promptly handed him a tissue."Ladies and gentlemen, please sit down. The auction will start now." The robot hurriedly approached Millie.The diamond bracelet was even better than shown in the picture. Millie loved its quality. Sadly, she had limited funds. Otherwise, she would have bid on the bracelet and brought it home as a gift for Julia.Millie observed the first item without making a bid, while nearly every participant with a female companion placed bids. The bidding for this item quickly escalated to 5 million yewros.Millie believed that the price should be at its peak, given the item's true value. If others were aware of its worth, they should stop bidding by now. Any additional bids would only result in financial loss.Indeed, everyone was aware of the true value of the item, ultimately leading to a successful bid of 5 million."We'll now proceed to auc

    Marvin was also taken aback. "What? William is competing with you for the bid? Why would a man like him be interested in purchasing a butterfly necklace?"Millie didn't respond. She considered it normal for someone like William, who indulged in one-night stands, to purchase a pricey necklace for a woman. She was confident that he must be quite a hit with women in Musbane.Millie couldn't help but smirk as William placed his bid. Without hesitation, she raised the price even higher. "20 million."William continued, "21 million."Millie was amused. "22 million."William called out again, "25 million."No one in the auction hall was bidding anymore. All eyes turned to room three and room six, where a blond man and a charming woman engaged in a fierce battle over a butterfly necklace. It was fascinating.Millie glared at William and scoffed. "He can have it."It was absolutely not worth spending 25 million on this necklace. The scoundrel got the short end of the stick.Marvin gave

    "Mr. Pearson, if you manage to get the Aspher tonight, would you be willing to entrust all Yerwick's agency to Mr. Greer?" the assistant asked jokingly.William arched his eyebrows. "If I'm feeling great, I'll definitely give it to him!"Soon, a fresh and beautiful Aspher was placed on the round stage for display. It was unbelievably stunning. Millie stood up and admired the Aspher eagerly. This Aspher was even more unique than Snowdrop. It was truly captivating."Aspher begins at a starting price of 2 million yewros." With that, the hammer fell, signaling the start of the auction.Millie immediately bid. "2.5 million."Everyone at the venue was curious about what made this medicinal herb so valuable that it was being auctioned. Some people joined the bid out of curiosity. However, only a few were genuinely interested, as there was no introductory information about the Aspher. Only those familiar with its value understood just how precious it was.Millie watched as everyone b

    "11 million!" William continued to raise the price. He was determined to win the Aspher.Millie noticed that William kept raising the price. This time, she increased it by only 500 thousand yewros. Millie wanted to wear out William's patience since she only had a budget of 20 million. She sighed, thinking that if she couldn't get the Aspher, she would have to negotiate with William. She knew that dealing with someone like him would be difficult, as he would likely be arrogant toward her.William increased the price once more. "12 million."Millie offered. "12.5 million."William shouted, "13 million!"Millie was agitated."Why does he need Aspher for?" Marvin wondered if William knew the benefits of Aspher.Millie found herself in a dire situation. While she was delighted to see that foreigners appreciated the Chirean culture, she also longed for valuable medicinal herbs to reach those who truly needed them. However, William remained stubborn, leaving Millie with no choice b

    The car was parked in front of the Caldwell residence. Eli took out the items and silently handed them to Winston. He wanted to see if Winston could help escort the two elderly people to the door."No need to accompany me any further. Let's leave it here," Layla insisted, maintaining her refusal.She always maintained a sense of propriety, even in how she addressed Winston.Winston found Layla harder to impress than Millie."Grandma, let me help you take it inside. It's not far. I'll just go in and come right out. I won't stay long," Winston said with a smile.Layla was about to speak. Arthur nudged her arm, suggesting she let it go, as she had been bothered enough already.Layla remained silent for a moment before nodding.Winston was given permission, and he immediately followed the two elderly people into the Caldwell residence with the items.Eli sighed and couldn't help but take a video of Winston, feeling really humbled.It was really hard to believe this was Winston.W

    "The shop shutting down for rectifications is necessary. If she keeps up this attitude, there's no point in having the store here. You all should remove her from this place," Layla said, intending to rid Clara of a job.When Clara heard it, her face turned pale. However, she didn't dare to speak at the moment, fearing that the more she said, the more mistakes she might make.These people all seemed to be important figures!"Alright!" Bernard clapped his hands and agreed, "Professor Cadmore, we agree. If she doesn't give the proper compensation, we will definitely fire her!"Arthur supported Layla and gently patted her back, gesturing for her to calm down and not be upset anymore.Layla had finally started to calm down a bit. She had actually become much more mellow with her temper. In the past, whether in the lab or outside, she was always decisive and assertive.This was also why Arthur had been obedient all these years. He would always go along with her."Hurry up, apologize t

    Bernard gave Clara a strong push. She fell to the ground, crying out in anger, "What's the meaning of this!"Bernard approached Winston with his hands tightly clasped and bowed respectfully as he exclaimed, "Mr. Greer!"Winston raised his hand, signaling for him to get up.Clara sat on the ground, feeling completely dumbfounded. Why was Bernard treating him with such respect? Who was this person? What was his background?Winston, with a cold expression, adjusted his sleeve and looked indifferently at Clara on the ground.Bernard said, "Mr. Greer, you should have told us you were coming! I would have had someone prepared to welcome you long ago. I'm really sorry for any inconvenience you experienced. Please accept my apologies!""What's wrong with her? Is she unwell?" Winston asked, pointing to Clara on the ground.Bernard quickly said, "She…""No matter what's up with her, disrespecting customers is a big mistake. I am demanding that her shop undergo rectifications before reope

    Winston raised an eyebrow and stepped forward.Clara felt a sudden shudder in her heart and instinctively took a step back.Winston scoffed. What was she backing away for? Was she scared?She was simply someone who bullied the weak but was afraid of the strong. What capabilities did she even have by picking on elderly people?Winston's gaze was steady, and his expression became increasingly cold and harsh.The woman frowned and stayed silent.Winston, speaking calmly and without any agitation, said, "If you don't want to escalate the situation, apologize now. If you're unwilling, then we'll have to get the police to handle it."To begin with, he was never a patient person. The reason he was speaking so nicely was to make a good impression in front of Layla and Arthur.In the past, whenever he encountered such a situation, he wouldn't even pay it any attention and would simply have Eli take them to the police station.Whenever someone made a mistake, it was important to address

    Layla said, "Even though it's soon New Year's and everyone is busy, try to be a bit more gentle! We're all elderly people here, so what's wrong with being patient?"Since you're in the service industry, you should maintain a proper attitude. If you can't even speak politely, then you shouldn't be in this line of work. I suggest you close up shop for good!"Winston squinted. That voice sounded very familiar. It seemed like Layla's voice.He quickly walked over and saw that Arthur was helping an elderly gentleman up while Layla was engaged in a debate with a young female shopkeeper."How I run my store is my business. If you want to buy something, go ahead. If not, just leave. I don't need you to tell me how to run my life!" The store owner glared at Layla while speaking with a very unfriendly tone, their voice sharp and cutting.Layla was exasperated and asked, "Don't you understand the saying that the customer is king?""What about the damn king? Just go away," the lady grumbled,

    Layla said, "Look, you're really persistent, aren't you? I don't like you. Do you need me to spell it out for you?""Grandma, I want to pursue Mills. Since I want to be with Mills, I need to have everyone's approval. Right now, I'm trying hard to make everyone like me. It's part of the process that you might dislike me at first, but I can't just give up because of that. How else would I pursue Mills?" Winston said clearly.As expected of a businessman, his negotiation style was very serious and precise. Despite his gentle tone, there was still a strong sense of pressure in his eyes and demeanor.Layla moved her lips slightly. She didn't know how to get Winston to leave, so she shouted, "I don't care! Just stop bothering us here!"Winston furrowed his brows.Layla then asked Arthur to pull the cart himself.Ding! Winston's phone rang out.Arthur took the cart and quickly left with Layla.Winston stood still, watching the couple walk away, and couldn't help but sigh. The call on

    "Grandpa, are you okay?" Winston finally had a moment to ask how he was doing.Arthur nodded. His demeanor toward Winston seemed a bit more gentle than before.Layla sighed. "There's too many people. Let's all slow down a bit.""Okay," Arthur said with a smile. "Don't worry, I'm fine.""You're getting older, and a fall could be life-threatening," Layla said anxiously, holding onto Arthur's arm tightly. "Hold onto me, alright?""If I hold onto you, I'll end up pulling you down as well if I fall!" Arthur grumbled.Layla said, "I don't care. Just hold onto me.""Okay, I'll hold on to you," Arthur relented.Winston was quietly following them from behind and couldn't help but smile himself. This was pretty nice.Who wouldn't envy a relationship that stayed this loving and affectionate all the way until old age?"Should we buy some candy?" Layla said, pointing at the candy in front of them.Arthur said, "Okay."Whatever she wanted, he would agree. The two of them acted both harmo

    "She's been hurt so badly, almost losing her life, yet he said she's fortunate. Clearly, he's the fortunate one! If he leaves our Mills, where else is he going to find a girl as wonderful and sweet as her?"Arthur nodded in agreement, playing along like a sidekick. "Exactly, that's what I'm saying!"He spoke a bit louder than usual, clearly aiming his words at Winston.Of course, Winston surely understood what they were thinking.He nodded. "Grandma is right. It was definitely me aiming too high. So if I get another chance, I will definitely treat Millie well.""Hmph! Men are all talk!" Layla had long seen through Winston's ways.Winston was at a loss for words.It didn't take long to reach the entrance of the supermarket.There were a lot of people present because of New Year's Day shopping.After Layla got sick once, her health had significantly worsened. Additionally, with one of her hands not working well, she appeared a bit flustered when she and Arthur entered the superm

    "Dear, could you give me a hand?" Layla asked. "Oh no, why is this step so slippery?"The next day, Winston sat in his car, watching as the elderly couple came out of the Caldwell residence.Arthur held the shopping cart in his hand, and the two of them were all geared up, ready to go out shopping.Winston got out of the car. The elderly couple happened to see Winston at that moment.Arthur and Layla exchanged glances. Layla spoke up first. "Mills is not here!""I understand. I'm not looking for Mills." Winston approached and stopped in front of them. "Grandma, Mills should have mentioned it to you. I was thinking of spending the Spring Festival with you and her."Layla reacted as if she had just heard a joke, saying bluntly, "When you were married, we never saw you spend the Spring Festival with her. "Now that you two have nothing to do with each other, why are you coming to spend the Spring Festival with her? She has family; she doesn't need you to spend the Spring Festival w
