Chapter 390

Author: Gina Cinq
"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

    Joanna was resting at home when she suddenly received a text.Jeremy: "Ms. Lowell, Mr. Greer is still looking into you."Joanna's anger flared up as she clutched her phone tightly. Even now, Winston still didn't trust her! Fueled by rage, she abruptly stood up and stared out the villa, frowning in frustration. Suddenly, Joanna saw the fruit knife resting on the coffee table from the corner of her eye. Her right hand balled into a fist, and she stormed toward it.Moments later, frantic shouts echoed through the Lowell Manor. "Help! Ms. Lowell has slashed her wrists!""Mr. Lowell, Mrs. Lowell, Ms. Lowell has attempted suicide!"It wasn't long before news of Joanna's suicide attempt spread like wildfire throughout Yerwick City. Winston was in the middle of a meeting at his office when he received a call. His heart sank upon learning about the situation. Right then, Eli rushed in and reported, "Mr. Greer, something has happened to Ms. Lowell."Winston's gaze swept over the pe

    After all, the Lowells had not found Louisa yet. Harriet couldn't bear the thought of losing Joanna too. How could she possibly cope? Was she doomed to live a life of endless sorrow?"I'm sorry, Mom. I didn't want this to happen either, but I'm just so miserable." Joanna shook her head. Tears continued to stream down her cheeks as she spoke. "I haven't slept properly in days. Every time I close my eyes, I think about all the unhappy incidents. It feels like everyone wants me dead. They've been harming and targeting me ever since my education credentials were exposed. I feel like I'm completely useless now…"Joanna's emotional outburst tugged at everyone's heartstrings. It was hard not to feel sympathy for a beautiful woman in tears. However, Millie remained indifferent. Was she too heartless?As Harriet's tears flowed, Ethan supported her, and they took a step forward. "Jo, listen to us. Please come down. Your mother and I will agree to anything you want, alright?"

    The next day, news about Winston and Joanna's engagement spread like wildfire. Upon seeing the news, Terrence felt his head throb with anger. "That jerk!""Why are you so upset? I'm not even bothered." Millie lounged on the couch, leisurely munching on a bag of chips.Terrence lightly tapped Millie's head and remarked, "You should take things more seriously!" He then asked, "How many days until your divorce is finalized?"Millie checked her phone and answered, "The day before the cruise party.""Well, isn't that great? You'll be able to have fun at the party then!" Terrence slapped his thigh in excitement. Millie chuckled but said nothing. After that, she tapped open Marvin's message.It had been days since she started searching for the Aspher for Arthur, yet there was still no news about it. Could it be that it was no longer in Musbane?"By the way, how's Grandma's research on SH2N coming along?" asked Millie.SH2N was a drug being developed for brain-dead patients and th

    Gloria glanced at Winston and asked flatly, "So, you've decided to marry her?""Yes."Gloria raised an eyebrow. She crossed her arms as she sat on the couch, showing an imposing presence. "Fine, I won't meddle further. Since both of you are willing to marry each other, then go ahead and make it happen," Gloria said, her demeanor clearly showing that she was ready to wash her hands of the situation. It was the first time she had ever backed down, leaving both Winston and Joanna astonished. Gloria cast a quick look at Joanna and sighed. "She's willing to go to any lengths just to marry you. You must marry her."However, she was certain that Joanna would stir up trouble frequently once Winston married her. It was infuriating to think that Winston would give up Millie just to pursue Joanna. Gloria glared at Winston, her frustration growing as she thought about what her son had done. He was turning out to be a real disappointment!"Mrs. Greer, do you really approve of me marryin

    While in the hospital, Millie rubbed her arms to keep warm. Then, the person on the bed woke up.Millie turned her head and looked at the person on the hospital bed. Winston's eyes were dull and showed signs of exhaustion. Their eyes met, and neither of them said a word.The nurse entered and saw that Winston was awake, so she patiently asked about his condition.He just kept looking at Millie without saying anything.Millie glanced at the nurse, signaling that she could continue with her work. Winston seemed fine now."You're not allowed to drink anymore," Millie said, her voice calm and indifferent.He closed his eyes, turned his head away, and didn't look at her again.Millie frowned and asked, "What do you mean by turning your head?"Winston remained silent, unable to speak because of the tightness in his throat.Millie poured a glass of water and asked him, "Would you like some water?"He still remained silent.Millie grew impatient and said, "Then I'll call Eli to take

    Other than that word, Everly couldn't hear anything else."Dad, I can't hear what you're saying at all." Everly was becoming frustrated.Thomas exclaimed, "I said, Mills!""Yes, you're talking about Mills. And then? What about her?" Everly was extremely confused.She picked up her phone to check the time—it was already 3:00 am.She was about to lose it. From New Year's Eve till now, she did nothing but take care of Thomas."Dad, why don't we just go to sleep?" Everly didn't want to listen anymore.Whatever it was, she would be nice to Millie and not go up against her.She didn't like Millie before, but that was simply because she disliked how obsessed Millie was with romantic relationships."Oh! Ah!" Thomas suddenly started grumbling as he threw back the blanket. "Why can't you understand?"He was getting agitated.Everly was also getting extremely agitated. What exactly did she need to understand?He wasn't even speaking loud enough."I mean your sister! Millie!" Thomas s

    Everly, feeling exasperated, helped Thomas off the couch and took him to the bathroom.Thomas lifted his head. His face was flushed, and his eyes dazed over. "My daughter, my daughter, I didn't throw up…"Everly looked at the mess on the ground and felt a headache coming on. Thomas had already thrown up, yet he still claimed he hadn't."You're drinking so much even though you can't handle it!" Everly shouted."What are you saying? It's like you're saying, saying, saying… ugh!" Thomas immediately leaned over the toilet, unable to finish his sentence. It was like he was speaking in tongue twisters, and no one could understand him.Everly sighed. She twitched her nose and turned to go outside to wait for him.Ten minutes went by, and Everly had finished tidying up the house. There was no sound coming from the washroom where Thomas was.Everly furrowed her brows and called out, "Dad?"Fine. It seemed like he was going to end up sleeping on the toilet.Everly walked over and, as ex

    "I'll go get your medicine for you. Wait a moment." Millie intended to get the medicine from the bedside table.But then, Winston grabbed her arm. His palms were sweaty, and when he held her hand, it felt so hot it was as if he might burn her.Millie looked down at him.Winston looked up at her face, worried that if he let go, she might disappear.However, he knew very well that Millie wanted to leave, and he couldn't stop her."Millie, do you really have to give up on me?" Winston asked again, seeming determined to get an answer.Millie furrowed her brows, breathing heavily."Do you have to?" He looked at her. "Hmm?"Millie felt her heart tighten, and she just couldn't bring herself to say, "I have to let you go.""Winston," she called to him.Winston had no more strength left in him, as if he couldn't wait any longer to hear those words from her.He suddenly bent over and fell to the ground.Millie paused for a moment, then she quickly crouched down. "Winston?"She immed

    Millie tightened her grip on the doorknob and turned to look at Winston.He stood next to the coffee table, his hands dangling awkwardly at his sides. The expression on his face seemed profoundly sorrowful. Although they were close, it felt as if a huge ocean stood between them when he looked at her, making it impossible for him to bridge the gap.Winston made a slight groaning sound, licking his lips and breathing heavily. His body was also swaying a bit. His stomach felt extremely uncomfortable, churning violently as if he might throw up at any moment.What bothered him even more was the comment Millie had just made.She said, "Let's end this."End it? But how would they just end it? Then were her seven years over just like that? Did his guilt and regret count for anything?She could move on from him, love someone else, and marry them. But what about him? He could never forgive himself for the rest of his life…Could they just end it?"Millie. Tell me, how are we supposed to

    "Listen." Millie bit her lip but finally mustered up the courage to speak. "Let's end this between us."During those years with him, she caused her family a lot of worry and concern. She no longer wanted her family to worry about her.Or perhaps, she had become scared. She didn't want to gamble with her feelings anymore."Winston, I admit defeat. I don't have the courage to go through this with you again." Millie's voice was choked with emotion as she struggled to hold back her sadness while saying this.Winston instinctively reached for her hand."Millie, you promised me. You said you'd give me a chance. Why?" His eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, and his voice was so hoarse it seemed like he could barely speak."There's no reason. The new year has begun, and I hope you get better. Don't come looking for me anymore." Millie pulled away from Winston's hand, turned around, and got ready to leave.He suddenly hugged Millie tightly and said, "Don't…"Winston's voice seemed to pierce

    Millie opened the car door and pushed Winston inside the car.Winston fastened his seatbelt in the dark by himself.Millie got into the car and saw him sitting there quietly, which made her smile and sigh.Millie drove at a moderate speed. The road was busy, with many people out to watch fireworks, while others were heading home.Winston looked to the driver's side, his gaze fixed on Millie.Millie could sense that he was watching her, but she kept avoiding eye contact. Her mind was preoccupied with the messages her dad had sent.Let him go… The question was, could she give up on him?Millie furrowed her brow and rested her hand on her forehead, deep in thought."Did I make you hate me…?" Winston's raspy voice suddenly sounded next to her ear.Millie looked over at him with confusion."Does my drinking make you hate me?" he asked again, just like a child afraid of upsetting Millie."No." Millie shook her head.Despite having drunk too much, he still made an effort to pay at

    After the video call ended, Millie placed her phone on the table.Thomas said to Millie, "Hahaha! Mills, look, he can't handle his drink!"Having been the son-in-law of the Caldwell family for three years, I only just found out that he can't hold his liquor."Millie gave a wry smile. This statement seemed to be a double-edged sword. For three years, he hadn't visited the Caldwell family even once. Winston was truly ruthless at that time.Winston quickly explained to Millie, "Millie, I haven't had too much. I can still drink, honestly."His face was completely flushed, and it was clear that his speech was slurred.The two of them had already finished a bottle of vodka.Thomas was even ready to switch to a different type of alcohol.Thomas had spent many years away from home and was quite a heavy drinker. His drinking ability was different from that of Winston.Winston could ask Eli to drink on his behalf if he didn't want to, but if Thomas was trying to win resources for Rach

    At the dining table, Thomas and Winston started drinking vodka.The TV was showing this year's New Year Gala while Millie was quietly eating pierogi.She hadn't had homemade pierogi for three years, and they tasted so good. It felt like being back in her childhood, celebrating the New Year with her family. That was what made the festival truly special.Millie looked at her grandparents with a constant smile on her face. She felt happier than she had ever been before.She wished her parents were here too. Oh, those two…Just as she was thinking about this, her phone rang. It was Terrence calling.Millie answered the call without saying a word and pointed the camera toward Thomas.This year, Thomas had no one to drink with, so he turned to Winston for company.Terrence was lounging in the sun when he caught sight of Winston. His eyes widened in surprise, and he immediately set down his juice."Who is that? Am I seeing this right?" Terrence sat up straight, his voice filled with
