There was nothing but silence in the corridor for a long time. Millie looked down when he remained quiet. Winston couldn't see her face. However, he could hear her ask softly, "Are you terrified that I'll use Grandma to force you to stay together?" Winston's pupils contracted. Just as he was about to explain, he heard Selma's voice from inside the room. She said, "Mills." Millie looked in and said, "Grandma is awake." Once she finished, she walked around Winston and entered the room. Gloria was helping her up. Selma laid against the headboard and looked at Millie. She felt sad. Winston followed Millie closely. When they appeared together, Selma felt displeased. In the end, had they come to this step? Did they have to get a divorce? Millie sat by the bed and helped Selma comb her hair. She said gently, "Grandma, are you alright now?" Selma grabbed Millie's hand and asked pitifully, "Mills, did you forget my birthday?" She smiled immediately and said, "Grandma,

He had always reminded everyone around them both that he didn't love her. However, she would always run into his embrace without looking back. Millie lowered her head in exhaustion. Suddenly, she heard the man beside her say, "Millie, I'm sorry for these past three years." Millie turned around to look at him, and their eyes met. Millie smiled and said openly, "Why are you apologizing? It was all because of my insistence." In the past, she would've blamed him for not loving her. She would hate Joanna for coming between them. Now that she had fallen, she knew to seek the problems in herself. The fact that they had gotten to this point was nobody else's problem. She could only blame herself. Irony flashed across her eyes. She didn't want his reparations. The doors opened, and Millie walked in. Winston wanted to come in. However, he was barred outside. Millie looked up and smiled. She said, "There's no need to follow me, so please stop here, Mr. Greer." Winston

After Millie left, Joanna immediately pulled her phone out. She called a man's number and questioned, "Have you found the Snowdrop? Who has acquired it?" The man on the phone said helplessly, "Ms. Lowell, I've tried my best. I could find nothing on the Snowdrop!" He also wanted to know. The Snowdrop hadn't even appeared. How had it been acquired? Who had taken it? This person was too powerful! "You're useless!" Joanna stomped her foot in anger. She frowned and asked, "Find me a solution! How can we find the Snowdrop?" Selma's birthday was coming. She'd leaked the news, but the Snowdrop was nowhere to be found! If she didn't get it, wouldn't she be laughed at by everyone? How would Winston think of her then? How would he see the Lowell family? "Ms. Lowell, I have an idea. Why don't we make an order in the black market?" Joanna bit her lip. Engaging with M seemed to be the only way! She'd paid attention to M before. He was an impressive man! For a while, Joanna wa

Millie giggled as she munched on her chips. Joanna was arrogant on the surface. She bragged constantly about how she was in possession of the Snowdrop and was friends with M. So, this was how she behaved behind people's backs. She wanted to guarantee a lifetime of luxury for other people. Milie wanted to reject her. When she found out it was Joanna, she was interested. She'd disliked Joanna for a long time but didn't have the chance to do anything to her. It wasn't illegal to play a little prank, right? She signed into her account and began chatting. "Ten billion dollars." "Just ten billion dollars? As long as you can get me the Snowdrop, that's nothing in comparison to what I can provide." "Let's meet up to discuss further." "Alright!" "Ask your boss to come talk to me personally." "Why?" "We'll meet at Room 999. I won't entertain you if you're late." Once she finished, Millie signed out. The man was confused. Looking at the conversation on the screen,

When Joanna pushed the door to Room 999 open, there was no one inside. Her bodyguard asked, "Miss, is M a reliable man?" She glared at the bodyguard and said, "Of course he is!" This was the man who could help her find the Snowdrop. Whoever said he was unreliable, she'd be the first to call them out. Joanna sat on the couch and took her phone. She messaged Winston excitedly. "Win, I've found the Snowdrop without your help!" After she finished, Joanna switched off her phone and waited excitedly. At eight, Joanna stood up and got ready to welcome M. He seldom showed his face in public. Wasn't it her pride and joy to meet him? Joanna smiled and paced. Time trickled by. However, she didn't see M even though it was past eight. "Miss, hasn't M come?" Joanna bit her lip. She was feeling nervous as well. However, for the Snowdrop, she mumbled, "Perhaps he's too busy. Let's wait a while longer." The bodyguard nodded and went out. Joanna thought for a moment and picke

Joanna was furious! She waited for him for the whole night, from eight to twelve. Now, he wasn't coming at a moment's notice. Wasn't he playing her? She was Joanna! Joanna! The heiress to the Lowell family! She was always the absent one when making plans with others. Who did he think he was to do this to her? Joanna was furious. She picked up her phone and was about to scold him. The man sent another message. "I'm so sorry! Let's set another time for tomorrow!" Joanna narrowed her eyes. Were they setting another time? "You won't be absent like today, right? I'm telling you, I'm very unhappy!"M replied, "Of course not. I'm really sorry for today! I can bring the Snowdrop with me tomorrow to our meeting. Naturally, if you're really dissatisfied and unwilling to meet again, I understand entirely. I won't waste your time." Joanna furrowed her brows. Was he going to bring the Snowdrop? When she saw his message, she couldn't care less about his absence. She was des

It was raining cats and dogs when Millie stepped out of the bar.A sense of foreboding hung in the air, with occasional flashes of lightning illuminating the sky while the thunder remained silent.There was something peculiar about her. Millie liked gloomy days, especially when she could watch shows and indulge in snacks while the rain pattered outside. It brought a sense of tranquility.However, she was terrified of thunder. Ever since she fell into the ocean, she developed a fear of thunder. The noise would strike a chord of dread within her. It was as if something exploded next to her ear.Just as Millie was about to get into the car, she spotted a black Maybach parked nearby. The door swung open, and a man in a suit hurriedly stepped out with an umbrella to pick Joanna up.Millie narrowed her eyes as she stared at the man, her gaze darkening. The most esteemed figure in Yerwick City, regarded as a legend, braved the pouring rain in the wee hours of the morning just to pi

Joanna gazed out the window, and suddenly, there was another roar of thunder. The flash of lightning looked like it was about to split the sky open.She drew a sharp breath, saying, "This is terrifying."Winston looked up, a sense of unease settling in his heart.Despite the pouring rain, he could vaguely see Millie slumped over the steering wheel when his car passed by her vehicle. Even after a long while, Millie's car remained stationary. Slumping over the steering wheel, Millie pressed both hands firmly on her ears, attempting to block out the thunder. But for some reason, it was as if the thunder was aware of her fear and roared louder to mock her.When she lifted her head again, her face was pale.Millie pulled a blanket from the backseat to wrap it tightly around herself. The windshield wipers continued moving steadily as she curled into a ball, trying to find solace. Usually, Yerwick should have been bustling with the start of nightlife at 1:00 am. Yet, the rain h

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
She's Out of Your League Now Chapter 1026
"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
