Winston lowered his gaze onto Millie's face. Millie watched the stranger pause and leave the scene. After that, she removed Winston's hand from her shoulder. "Thanks, Mr. Greer," she said flatly."You're welcome," Winston replied in a dull tone.With her head hung low, she prepared to head indoors, but Winston stopped her. "Millie.""Yeah?" She looked up calmly."What were you trying to say to me on the bench last night?" The question troubled him for a long time, but he couldn't figure out what she tried to say.She pursed her lips. The look in her eyes deepened. "There are many people around here. It's not the best place to talk about it."Besides, it'd take her a while to go through everything."Is it something important?" Winston asked.She laughed. "Yes. It is important to me."She nearly lost her life for him, but perhaps that wasn't important to him. Forcing a smile, she explained, "But I don't know if it matters as much to you."She'd be really happy if Winston as

Millie cast a wary look at Joanna. Joanna raised a brow in amusement, saying, "I won't hurt you. We're at a party with people all around us."Millie shrugged. She wasn't exactly afraid of her anyway.They took their seats at the same time. Not far away, Jake was drinking and enjoying the ocean view while stealing occasional glances at the two women.Joanna sat across from Millie with her arms crossed, looking just like a young lady who grew up in wealth. On the contrary, Millie casually lounged on her chair, looking elegant and at ease.Millie's evening dress was way more graceful than Joanna's. On top of that, she was blessed with great looks. Sitting beside Millie only highlighted Joanna's flaws—she was no match for her.However, that was the least of Joanna's concerns that night. After a short silence, she began, "Let's start with Winston's abduction."Millie was caught off guard for a moment, as she had never openly discussed that incident with Joanna over the years.Smili

Joanna let out a deep sigh before finishing her wine. Millie didn't seem to know Winston that well. He was a man with feelings too."Millie, let me tell you the reason Winston stays by my side and dotes on me unconditionally," Joanna said, looking intently at her.Millie waited patiently for her explanation. She would very much like to know the reason behind Winston's insistence on getting a divorce to marry Joanna.Joanna beamed. "It's because of you."Millie frowned. Because of her? How so?Joanna tilted her body forward. The words were on her lips, but the band suddenly switched to a new song, hyping up the crowd.At that moment, Jake wandered over to the ladies and lifted Joanna by the arm. "Stop drinking. Let's dance."When Millie looked up, Jake had dragged Joanna away. Joanna wore an annoyed look on her face. She grumbled, "Jake Webson, can't you tell that we were having a serious talk?""And what could it be about? I should thank the gods as long as you're not stirrin

Millie was ready to leave the debauched and ostentatious party on the sixth floor when she heard someone whisper, "Is Mr. Greer here?""What's his type of girl? My mom will punish me if I fail to sleep with him tonight. I can't afford to have things go wrong…" A skimpily-dressed young woman was on her phone by an emergency exit door.Lips pressed together, Millie hid in a corner under the dim lighting. Megan Lake spoke on the phone, "I heard his ex-wife and current girlfriend are both on the cruise. Things are really tough for me. Can you help me? Dad, I… I…"Megan started sobbing when her father hung up on her.Millie's eyes narrowed. From the short conversation, she deduced that the poor woman's parents were trying to sell their daughter's body.She let out a soft cough. Megan, alerted, spun around. She couldn't see Millie clearly from her angle, but Millie saw her face under the light—a childlike and innocent face."Are you looking for Winston Greer?" Millie asked.Megan vi

"Why are you so against me? Is it because I'm Winston's friend?" Sean stood in Millie's path.Millie nodded at him. "I know you're aware of the truth. Besides, I'm not into guys younger than me."She was exhausted just from dating Winston, and she couldn't imagine dealing with younger, immature, and frisky guys like Sean."Hey, it's not my fault I'm younger than you! I'm just a few months younger anyway." He shrugged and stopped her from leaving, forcing her to step back.Feeling exasperated, she warned him, "Sean, look out. There are people behind me." It was unsafe to be walking backward given the amount of guests around them."Mills, that hurt." Sighing, Sean placed a hand on his stomach. Not only was his wound hurting, but he suffered from heartache as well.Millie flashed him a look of contempt. Sean was about to tail Millie when someone stepped in his path. He frowned unhappily before slumping on the couch. "What's the matter?"Winston towered over him. "What are you tryin

Megan turned and saw a young lady as pretty as she was. "Nothing." She smiled and touched her arm on the spot where Winston had held her.She seemed to feel the lingering warmth of his fingertips. Then, she lifted her arm and sniffed softly. Too bad he didn't leave behind any scent.Her first encounter with Winston was at the time he hosted a guest lecture at the University of Yerwick. She had lost her way and bumped into him, who was on the phone outside the lecture hall.As fate would have it, a downpour started right after her lecture, and she didn't have an umbrella with her.Winston's assistant then offered her an umbrella."Megan, did I see you bumping into Mr. Greer? Wait a minute. Is he your target tonight?" The young lady, Ellie Barney, poked Megan in the elbow.Megan's face instantly turned a deep shade of red. "Gosh, Ellie, would you listen to yourself? Someone of my status could never dream of dating Mr. Greer!"Ellie, who was in the same line of work, smiled witho

When Millie opened the door, she found Winston standing there looking disheveled in a white shirt and a loose tie. His brow was locked in a frown, and he looked like he had a lot to say.She hung her head and stepped aside to allow him into the room. There were too many pairs of eyes around for them to openly converse by the door.However, he refused to enter."Millie Caldwell, how much grudge do you hold against me? Since I'm here, I allow you to take it out on me." He stared back with tired eyes.She glanced at him and chuckled wryly. "It's pointless. I can't be bothered to bring it up.""Oh, are you unwilling to talk about it when I'm in front of you?" Winston took a step forward and swallowed hard. His tone was filled with doubt.She let out a laugh. "I'm the one who's hurt. You've always been the arrogant one. Now that we're divorced, you act like you're caring and have always listened all of a sudden. Don't you think you're being fake?"Every single word of hers was akin

Unlike Millie's high school self, she was now powerless and begrudged. Her beauty blossomed even more as she aged, but she lost her happy and bright personality in the process.And it was all his fault.He was the reason all colors drained from her life.

For her sake, he quit smoking and attended the closest college to the School of Medicine. Because of Millie, Greer Group's first venture was into the medical industry.Millie had always complained that he didn't care for what she did for the Greer family. She claimed that she had to beg for their marriage.But that couldn't be further from the truth. He remembered every single thing she did for the Greer family. He was aware that she gave his mom massages and cheered his grandma up.At first, he did plan to marry Millie, and he was ready to spend his life with her. He was sure he loved her. But some

Soon, it was New Year's Eve. Yerwick City didn't have a ban on fireworks, so the neighborhood had been lively since early in the day.Arthur wanted to hang some lights to bring more festive spirit into the house. However, when he looked at the high places where he needed to hang them, he felt like he just couldn't manage it.Just as Thomas and Everly arrived outside the door, he called out to them, "Hurry and hang up these lights.""Oh dear, be careful not to fall at this age." Thomas quickly took the string of lights from Arthur's hands.Arthur replied, "I was just waiting for you all!"Everly joked, "Grandpa, are you upset that we arrived late?""Hmph! You weren't early enough. Millie hasn't even shown up yet!"But as soon as he finished speaking, Millie walked in holding some things. "Grandpa, I heard you talking about me from far away, and I've sneezed several times because of it," she said with a slight smile, her voice bright and cheerful.The group turned their attention

At that moment, a cold snort came from the staircase.Arthur looked up. Wasn't that Layla standing there?Layla walked downstairs, her tone sounding incredulous as she said, "Is this guy really willing to go to such lengths to get what he wants? He even had the nerve to say something like that?""When pursuing someone you like, there's nothing you wouldn't do, no matter how embarrassing. Back when I was trying to win you over, didn't I wait for you outside your house every day?" The thought brought Arthur a sense of sorrow.The Cadmores were a medical family, and Arthur was a businessman. Even though he also made a fortune in the medical field, the Cadmore family wasn't willing for the two of them to be together. They just wanted Layla to marry someone who was also studying medicine.Believe it or not, back then, there really was another medical student as her suitor. The Cadmore family liked them, and outsiders also thought they were a good match.In the end, the persistent suit

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
