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

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

On the deck, Joanna was in the middle of a heated argument with another woman, Hannah Egan. She was shoved against the railing, and as she glanced down, all she could see was the vast sea. Joanna gripped Hannah's arms tightly, her eyes wide with fear. Her breath came in ragged gasps as she scanned the crowd for the one person. "Win… Win, save me."Hannah sneered, her grip tightening around Joanna's neck. "You're nothing but a mistress! How dare you come between them!" she snarled.Right then, a murmur spread through the crowd, and someone remarked softly, "Mr. Greer is here."Hannah stepped forward upon hearing that. She glared at Joanna and spat out, "Do you know who sent me? It was Millie Caldwell!"Winston's steps came to an abrupt stop, while Joanna was in disbelief. "What?"Hannah continued through gritted teeth, "Mr. Greer and Ms. Caldwell were perfectly happy until you came along. Don't you think you deserve to die?"Sean hurried over to the scene. Just as he was abo

It was hard to believe that someone as dramatic and whiny as Joanna was also the calm person who had saved Winston during his abduction. Winston's gaze darkened as he uttered lightly, "Let her go, and I'll become your hostage."The onlookers were stunned after hearing that. "Wow, Mr. Greer is actually offering himself as a hostage! He must really love Joanna.""Joanna doesn't even compare to Mr. Greer. She's made him willingly offer himself as a hostage!" The spectators were awed by the depth of Winston's affection. Yet, only he was aware of the true motive behind his words. "Win…" Joanna was touched, too. With tears streaming down her face, she cried out, "Please, don't. If one of us has to die, let it be me, not you."Millie chuckled wryly. What a romantic couple. She then made her way through the crowd and approached them.Joanna's eyes flickered with a hint of malice as soon as she spotted Millie. "Is this someone I sent? But I don't know her," Millie remarked, steppi

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
