"Millie! What are you doing?" someone shouted.

Millie turned her head and got pushed aside before she could see who was coming. She stumbled back and saw Logan helping Joanna up.

Logan glared at Millie and then helped Joanna to her feet.

Joanna immediately hugged him tightly and burst into tears. "Logan…"

Logan hummed softly and tenderly comforted Joanna.

Millie stood in silence, brushing off the non-existent dust on her body. She effortlessly resumed her indifferent expression and exuded an air of superiority.

"Joanna knows very well what I'm doing," Millie said, wiping her fingers. She felt incredibly dirty after touching Joanna.

Logan sneered. "Millie, stop causing trouble toward my family. I'm not your family. I won't tolerate your behavior."

"Mr. Lowell, I should be the one saying that to you. Both of you should stop causing trouble toward me!"

Logan was stunned and furious.

"You'd better ask Joanna what she did!" Millie was certain that Joanna's family was unaware of Jo

    "Winston Greer Suddenly Kneel After Divorce from Millie Caldwell: A Sign of Regret?"Millie discovered that all the posts she came across were published by those paid media accounts, suggesting a premeditated smear campaign. It did have a negative impact on Winston's reputation, but it wasn't really intentional."Boss, to be completely honest, I didn't expect that scumbag would actually kneel," Marvin said, glancing at her.Millie pursed her lips as she flicked through a series of photos, most of which captured Winston kneeling at the airport. In one of the pictures, she caught a glimpse of herself, her expression icy and distant. Her eyes bore into Winston as though he were a mere stranger. She didn't even want to show any hatred toward him. It seemed like Winston had been completely abandoned by her.She silently turned off her phone and gazed out the window."I took my car for repairs yesterday and spotted Mr. Greer's car," Marvin said.Since Millie remained silent, he conti

    "Why is Millie so cruel? How could she hurt you like that?"Harriet was worried as she watched Logan tend to Joanna's wounds at Lowell Manor. Joanna's injury deeply pained her.Logan's expression remained stoic and grave.Joanna gazed at Logan, too afraid to say anything. Logan had been quiet since they arrived home, and even while treating her wounds, he seemed distant. She wondered if he knew she had stolen the credit for Millie's heroic action. "How did the Caldwell family raise Millie?" Harriet was furious at the mere thought of it.Logan calmly set aside the first-aid box and suggested, "We should ask Joanna what she did first."He shielded Joanna from Millie to preserve her dignity and protect her reputation. If she really made a mistake, they would educate her at home instead of in front of others.Joanna felt nervous after hearing his words. "Logan, I…""What did you do?" Logan couldn't comprehend the reason behind Millie's ruthless behavior toward Joanna. Numerous scr

    It was no surprise that Winston, who woke up two days ago, suddenly developed a high fever and slipped back into a coma. It was because he went out in the rain to look for Millie.Logan glanced at Joanna's room and let out a sigh. He knocked on the door and said seriously, "Jo, I understand your feelings for Winston. But if he doesn't like you back, keeping him won't make you truly happy."Both of them fell silent. Logan looked conflicted. "I mean… why not…"He wanted to advise her to stop loving Winston. She had many options as the heiress of the Lowell family. It didn't have to be Winston, especially considering he was divorced."I only want to be with Winston. I don't want anyone else but him!" she shouted hoarsely behind the door.Logan sighed heavily. "But I don't think Winston likes you at all. It seems like your affection is unrequited. Just read the news and see for yourself!"After that, Logan left.Joanna couldn't hold back her tears as she lay on the bed. After hearin

    Gloria and Brian instantly turned toward him and saw Winston looking at them weakly.She had never seen Winston look so haggard. Since he had taken over the leadership of Greer Group, he couldn't afford to appear this way. The company couldn't function without a strong leader, and he couldn't risk losing his authority and dignity in front of others. Perhaps he had been too comfortable for the past 20 years. Now was the true beginning of Winston's life. It was time for him to face adversity. As a mother, Gloria felt powerless to help him, just as she was unable to prevent him from divorcing Millie."How are you feeling?" Gloria asked, offering him a glass of water.Winston shook his head slightly.Despite feeling sorry for him, Gloria still reprimanded him, "Serves you right!"Winston had brought this upon himself."Millie was so kind. But you weren't interested in her and instead chose to pursue Joanna. Your grandmother, your dad, and I have a wealth of life experience. Will

    Gloria's final statement was undeniably directed at Joanna. Winston would definitely hold her accountable, and the Greer family would not allow her to escape either. It was overwhelming that she had actually taken credit for saving Winston from Millie. In this world, no secret could be hidden, especially such a disgraceful act.Amidst the silence, Winston said, "Millie's gone."As Winston watched her determined departure, he was completely heartbroken."Gone? What do you mean?" Gloria was confused.Winston replied, "I tried to convince her to stay, but she still chose to go abroad in the end."Gloria chuckled, finally comprehending his words. He was saying that Millie had gone overseas.Then, Gloria said, "Madam Layla was in an accident. So, Millie chose to stay rather than leave."Winston was stunned and wondered about what had happened while he was unconscious. "What happened to Madam Layla? How is she now?"Gloria replied seriously, "There was a car accident on Lowfield Ro

    The ward was quiet, but with Jake's arrival, it became more lively."You're here just in time, Jake. I need to step out for a bit, so I'd really appreciate it if you could stay with Win for a while," Gloria said after answering a call.Jake nodded. "Alright, Mrs. Greer. Please go ahead and take care of what you need. I'm available now, so I'll be staying with him."After Gloria left, Jake peeked outside. Then, he hurriedly closed the door and made his way to the single couch by the window. He crossed his legs and folded his arms. "Alright, now tell me the truth. What happened after the cruise party?"During the cruise party, he stayed on the lower deck. Everyone ran to the upper deck to watch the scene, but he failed to go up due to the crowd. When he finally managed to go up, Winston had been moved elsewhere. Winston remained unconscious, and the Greers didn't know what had happened. Later, he was informed that Winston had regained consciousness, so he went to see him. Howev

    Given the current circumstances, Jake was uncertain about the next course of action. He contemplated how Winston should approach Millie in this situation. Furthermore, he wondered how Winston should handle the fact that Millie rescued him.Also, did he love her? It was always difficult to see through Winston, making it difficult to comprehend his true intentions."This could be a great opportunity. How about this… Millie used to be the one who always pleased you, but now, how about you do it?" Jake suggested, carefully weighing his words.He said this cautiously because it was impossible for Winston to lower himself to please someone. He was too proud to do so. While he expected others to please him, he was unable to please others."She doesn't want to see me," Winston said calmly.Jake chuckled. "Come on! So, if she decides she doesn't want to see you, you're just going to stop looking for her? You didn't even love Millie, but she still chose to marry you, and she even waited f

    Layla was surrounded by doctors and family members in the ward.Millie was hesitant to speak when she looked at her. Layla tried to raise her arms, looked at a few people, and finally smiled. Seeing her smile broke Millie's heart."Grandma," she murmured, her voice quivering.Arthur quickly reassured. "It's fine. Just a small issue."Layla let out a quiet sigh as she made yet another attempt to move her arms.Everyone felt bad seeing Layla in that condition. Sebastian felt even worse because he couldn't cure her. He felt incompetent. What happened to Layla was a tragedy and a source of regret for the medical industry.Millie was filled with deep sympathy for Layla. Approaching the side of her bed, she tenderly held Layla's hand, urging her to remain still. Each time Layla moved, it pierced Millie's heart like a sharp knife. Sebastian was consumed by shame, and Millie shared that very same sentiment.Layla let out a wry smile, looking up to meet everyone's gaze with a touch o

    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
