Millie bent over and said to William with a dangerous edge in her voice, "William, this is just a little warning to you. Show some respect to a lady, or I'll make sure you meet your maker."

While speaking, she extracted the hairpin from his stomach. He promptly fell onto his knees with a grimace.

"You—" He pointed at Millie. Overcome by a numbing sensation, he felt as if his body had frozen over. He couldn't speak or control his movements.

At first, Millie had only planned to teach William a lesson with the silver needle. Since he lost the Aspher, she decided to stab him in the stomach as revenge. What a loser!

She retrieved the hairpin and opened the door to leave. The bodyguard at the door looked surprised at her swift exit. He mused, "Wait, does Mr. Pearson always finish fast?"

Smiling, she traced the chins of the two bodyguards. These Musbanian guys had chiseled features indeed. Even the bodyguards were hot.

Millie left in no time. It wasn't until the bodyguards noticed t

    "Are you shocked?" Winston wondered. Millie tried to gather herself. Well, Winston's arrival wasn't that surprising. She had always wondered if he was the guy who smoked in front of the restroom; what an unbelievable coincidence!"Why did you agree to meet with William?" Winston glared at her in an accusatory manner."Don't worry about me. Mr. Greer, please drop me off in front." Millie pointed at the entrance of a restaurant. She needed some food after an eventful day.Winston smiled. "But you would've been arrested if not for me.""Mr. Greer, I have help. Do not flatter yourself." She snickered with contempt.Even if she were arrested, she'd escape by herself. Besides, she had a plan B. The hairpin contained poison. She wasn't joking when she threatened to make William impotent, and she bet the effects must have kicked in by now. If William captured her, she would withhold the antidote from him or threaten to publicize his impotence.She smacked the car window. "Stop!"

    Millie was willing to pay any price for the butterfly necklace if Winston agreed to sell it to her.He left the car. "Let's eat for now."She stared at him wordlessly. He peered at her from outside the car. Then, he teased her, "Do you want the necklace or not?"Damn it. She hated that the necklace had fallen into his hands. Now, she was subjected to his whims. Her stomach growled from hunger, and she thought getting a free meal out of Winston wouldn't hurt.She entered the restaurant and sent Marvin her geolocation. She texted him, "Join us for dinner. A sucker is paying."Winston led Millie into a private dining room. All the while, she had been focused on the news, wondering if William might lodge a police report. She decided to hurry back home after dinner for her safety."He won't file a police report. Have your dinner in peace," Winston said while ordering.She was caught off guard. How did he read her mind?Winston quietly checked out the menu and ordered a few of their

    "I would be really thankful to you if you're willing to give up the necklace." Millie flashed him a sincere smile.However, if Winston refused to sell the necklace, she wouldn't bother him about it. After all, it was just a necklace.Winston raised an eyebrow. Taking a sip of water, he calmly asked, "Ms. Caldwell, what can you offer in exchange?""What can I offer? I'm buying it." She shrugged. "How about double the price of the winning bid?"Marvin's heart sank when he looked at the two of them. Although they were no longer husband and wife, they would still make a powerful duo.Winston was always aggressive. Meanwhile, Millie had become increasingly intimidating with a streak of madness. "Let's not always talk about money. That's crass," Winston replied with a sigh.Millie refused to engage further. "Mr. Greer, just let me know when you're ready to give up on the necklace. It's getting late. I don't want to take up any more of your time. Bye!"She tried to leave, but Winston

    "Of course. I'll call you back after I land." Suddenly, a familiar voice echoed in Millie's ear. Her eyes flickered open, and she spotted Winston, who had just gotten off a call.She stared at him wordlessly. What a small world!Winston wasn't surprised to run into Millie on the flight, which was the earliest flight back home.Millie regretted not buying an economy-class seat. Meanwhile, Marvin cleared his throat and looked out of the window."Hello, Ms. Caldwell," Eli greeted her with a nod.She stared at her feet. "Hi."Silence filled the air. The sky was dark outside. Millie turned in her seat to avoid looking in Winston's direction. She was ready to fall asleep after the plane took off, but Winston and Eli would not stop discussing work beside her. It annoyed her to no end."You're noisy," she vented without taking a look at them.Eli looked up. He immediately said to her, "I'm sorry."Winston glanced at Millie's figure with an amused expression before going back to work

    Joanna looked in the same direction as Winston, but Millie was out of her sight by now. All she could see was a group of people walking away.Eli broke out in a cold sweat on Winston's behalf. Joanna had no idea that Winston had run into Millie in Musbane. Otherwise, she'd make a scene again!"We've been separated for a while. Let's have dinner together." Joanna took Winston's arm and purred, "I crave for the steak at Siren Club. I want to have dinner there with you."Winston nodded, as he also needed to have a talk with Joanna.Suddenly, he asked about Harriet, "Joanna, how's your mom doing?"Joanna grew furious upon hearing the question. "Win, did you know Millie abducted my mom? Mom was hanging by a rope on a tall building for a night! How could she do that to my mom?"Winston replied, "But your mom did the same to Millie.""I'll admit that my mom is in the wrong, but… but Millie can't do this to my mom!" Joanna looked angry when the topic was raised. She vowed to avenge Harr

    Millie stole another look at Kennedy, thinking, "Hm, he's pretty hot."Her phone chimed. It was a text from Rachel. "Have you landed? Wanna join me for some drinks?""Sure!" Millie replied before closing her phone. Then, she whispered to Terrence, "Dad?""What is it?" Despite being interrupted, Terrence didn't seem irked."Rachel invited me to hang out. Drop me off in front." Millie pointed toward the front. Terrence replied, "Okay."Before she left, she nodded at Kennedy, "Mr. Sullivan, happy working with my dad. See you again when I have the chance."Smiling, he answered, "Yeah. See you again."Millie shut the car door and skipped her way to meet with Rachel. Unbeknownst to her, Kennedy, who had hesitated to cooperate with the Caldwell Group, finally gave the green light.…Millie changed into a black dress at the bar and casually put her hair up with a claw clip. Her elegant nape was on full display.She ordered a glass of wine and searched for Rachel in the crowd. She s

    Millie quickly helped Rachel up. Soon, a few men surrounded them.A man with short hair barked at Millie, "Hey, take your hands off her."With a glance, she immediately knew they were responsible for spiking Rachel's drink."She's my friend. I'm taking her with me," Millie announced.The men exchanged looks and grinned. She must be foolish to believe she could leave with a woman they had set their eyes on."You'd better behave. Do not press our buttons." A man neared Millie and glowered at her.A bald man pointed at Millie while stroking her chin. "This one looks pretty too. Why don't we take her with us as well?"She narrowed her eyes.The man in the lead chuckled loudly. "She is. Let's bring her along."Millie rolled her fist. "I'll repeat one more time—get out of my way."However, they ignored her warning and went up to snatch the two ladies. Amid a wave of dizziness, Rachel felt someone grabbing her arm.Millie immediately swatted the hand away. "Don't touch her!"She p

    Winston waved at Seth and said coldly, "You'd better not tell me who your dad is.""My dad is—" The words were about to come out of Seth's mouth when Winston warned him, "Are you sure about this?"If Seth revealed his dad's identity, Winston would make sure to bankrupt his business.Seth opened his mouth, but someone cautioned him, "Seth, that looks like Winston Greer, the CEO of Greer Group who has a chokehold on Yerwick's economy. Don't get on his bad side…"Seth immediately toned down. He scrutinized Winston nervously. How could this be Winston Greer?"Bring them away." Winston glanced at the bar owner. "Do not let in any Tom, Dick, or Harry next time."The owner immediately replied, "Yes, Mr. Greer!""What's wrong with her?" Jake's voice echoed in the air. Millie looked behind Winston and saw Jake leaning on the couch and studying Rachel.Millie hurriedly walked around Winston and shoved Jake out of the way. She helped Rachel up.Rachel pressed her body against Millie's.

    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
