"Please, don't." Jake immediately tapped Rachel's cup. He wasn't accustomed to her being so polite. He preferred the Rachel who was indifferent and quick with her comebacks."Alright, let's consider this matter settled!" Laura clapped and added, "Thank you for understanding, Mr. Webson. We truly appreciate it. If there's anything you need in the future, we'll do everything in our power to help."Laura, being an experienced manager, delivered her lines with practiced perfection. Her smooth, reassuring words left Jake feeling more at ease. Millie was about to take a sip of water when her phone buzzed with a message.Hazel wrote, "Dr. Caldwell, Sonny is in critical condition. Please return immediately."Millie immediately stood up and announced, "I have to go. There's an emergency at the hospital."Before anyone could say a word, she had already closed the door behind her. Rachel froze, surprised by her hasty departure. …When Millie arrived at the hospital, Lainey was already t

"But he's still so young," Millie responded with a frown.Vanessa chuckled. "He'll grow up eventually. It's good to start training him now. You and Dr. Quinn should go home and get some rest."Millie fell silent. Without saying anything else, she walked away with Lainey.In the elevator, Millie stared at the changing numbers and heard Lainey remark, "She's working so hard because she wants the deputy chief position.""Is she qualified enough?" asked Millie.Lainey smiled knowingly and answered, "She is."Aside from Yoel, Vanessa was the best fit. Lainey's words confirmed to Millie that the deputy chief position was practically Vanessa's.…On the drive home, Millie received a call from Rachel."Hey, superstar, done with your meeting?" Millie teased.Rachel sounded dejected as she said, "Yeah, it's over. My manager has taken me away, so don't miss me.""I won't be seeing you again?" Millie inquired.Rachel responded, "See you at the cruise party."…On the weekend, Millie

When Terrence returned, he saw Millie swinging her racket on the court. A sense of relief washed over him at that sight. This was the Millie he remembered. She should be brimming with energy and not weighed down by life's chaos.Millie was matching Kennedy's play, though she wondered if he was letting her win."It's not often I see a woman play tennis this well," Kennedy praised, genuinely impressed.Millie sipped her water and cast a quick look at him. "Thank you.""We should play again sometime," Kennedy suggested while twirling his racket. His tone was calm and respectful. Millie nodded. "Sure.""Dad," she called out to Terrence. He had been on the phone since they entered the tennis club, and Millie had no idea what was keeping him so occupied. It seemed like Terrence had chosen this place specially for her. As Millie wiped the sweat from her face, she suddenly heard someone outside exclaim, "Mr. Greer is here too?""And he's brought his fiancée? Is it true?"Upon he

"Mr. Greer, are you giving up already? I haven't even started to get serious," Kennedy teased, leaning against the net with a smirk.Winston didn't respond. Instead, he picked up his water bottle and took a sip. At the same time, he glanced at Millie, who was drenched in sweat, her face flushing.Millie couldn't shake the feeling that something wasn't right between Kennedy and Winston. "Since the game is over, I'm done playing." Millie then told Kennedy, "I'm going to take a shower and then head home. Mr. Sullivan, you should discuss business with my dad."Suddenly, Kennedy offered, "Let me give you a ride home."Millie was somewhat taken aback but quickly declined, "There's no need for that. Thank you, Mr. Sullivan."With that, Millie headed to the women's locker room. Before long, she had finished showering and changed into a new outfit.The top had a clever zip design. Pulling the zipper down would reveal her cleavage, while the lower part would expose a subtle design detail

In the end, Winston still went to the hospital. Lainey told him that Sonny might have been mistreated in prison, which was why his health suffered greatly. Winston strode into the ward. There, he saw that all the monitoring equipment had been removed from Sonny. Sonny's hand rested limply on the edge of the bed, and his eyes held a silent plea as he looked at Winston. He had something to say, but he couldn't speak.Winston understood that Sonny had no further use. Allowing him to survive this long had been an act of mercy. Winston leaned in, his gaze cold and menacing as he stared at Sonny. "Sonny, I'm asking you one last time. Was it Joanna who saved me back then?" he asked urgently.Sonny looked at him, his eyes growing increasingly unfocused. His lips parted slightly, but his voice was too soft for Winston to hear. Suddenly, he grabbed Winston's arm and gently traced a letter on his palm.Winston frowned. "L?""L as in Joanna Lowell?" Winston pressed.But Sonny continue

"Ms. Lowell, Sonny is dead."In a café, Joanna, wearing sunglasses, sipped her coffee. Upon hearing the news, a sense of relief washed over her.However, she was far from satisfied. "I told you to get rid of him, but you took forever! You're so slow at your job!"Jeremy appeared helpless as he explained, "Ms. Lowell, his identity was different, and I did everything I could. But fortunately, he's dead now."No one will ever know that you impersonated Millie to save Winston. He'll never discover the truth unless she reveals it.""Millie…" Joanna narrowed her eyes. "She's someone we can't keep alive."Jeremy immediately asked, "Ms. Lowell, are you planning to deal with her?""Jeremy, tell me, what kind of person is great at keeping a secret?" Joanna countered with a smirk, a hint of danger flashing across her eyes.Jeremy's lips curled into a smile. "A dead person, of course."Joanna scoffed and replied, "Then, let's send her on her way."Her plan to eliminate Millie wasn't new.

Millie was in the middle of her skincare routine when she heard Terrence cursing downstairs. "Winston has gone too far! How could he hold up Kennedy's cargo in the dead of the night?"Millie opened her room door and leaned on the railing on the second floor, observing Terrence's outburst. "What does Kennedy's shipment have to do with you, Dad?" she asked.Terrence looked up and replied sharply, "It has nothing to do with me now, but we're about to collaborate with him. If the Sullivan Corporation runs into trouble, our company will be affected too!""What's going on with Winston? He usually never involves himself with customs matters," he added, frustration evident in his voice.Millie pressed her lips together. As her hands rested on the railing, she got lost in thought."There's one more issue I haven't vented about." Terrence lifted his head to gaze at Millie. "He somehow managed to provoke William Pearson, and now not only is William refusing to work with us, but Winston has a

Millie added, "Everyone in Yerwick knows Winston was kidnapped once."A hint of surprise flickered in Eli's eyes. But it disappeared as quickly as it came after he heard what Millie said. Indeed, everyone was aware of Winston's abduction. "Ms. Caldwell, the butterfly tattoo on your back is beautiful," Eli commented. "I don't remember seeing it before."Millie instinctively touched her back and let out a casual "Oh." As she pushed open the door of the ward, she replied, "I didn't have this tattoo before." She pointed inside. "This is Sonny's ward."The nurses had already cleaned it, and it was now empty. Eli inspected the room thoroughly, checking every corner. Yet, he found nothing."Are you looking for something?" Millie asked him. Eli hummed in response before asking, "Did you find anything that Sonny might have left behind while you were cleaning the bathroom?""No." Millie shook her head.Eli fell silent for a moment. Then, he nodded lightly. "What are you searching f

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
