All of a sudden, she noticed a subtle increase in warmth. Then, she felt the weight of something being placed on her shoulders. Millie glanced upward and saw that Winston had placed his trench coat on her.

Observing Winston once more, he was dressed in a thin suit. On the chilly night, he must have been feeling the cold after removing his coat.

However, Millie wasn't inclined to sympathize with him. She had no desire to endure discomfort. If someone were to offer her a coat, she would graciously accept it.

She planned to return the coat to him when the cab arrived. Nonetheless, she was truly freezing. The November weather was at its worst during the morning and evening.

Winston felt a brief sense of relief when Millie didn't reject him. This was a positive beginning. He said in a deep voice, "I have my car close by. I'll drive you home instead. No need to call for a cab."

"No need, my cab is already on its way," Millie replied.

Winston felt annoyed. "How much longer will you k

    Those tricks were truly repulsive."Winston, stop wasting your time. I'll never make the same mistake to reconcile with you. Save your affection for someone else," Millie declared before removing the coat and tossing it back to Winston.She wasn't interested in his coat at all. However, she figured it was better to have something than nothing. After that, Millie quickly made her way to the front of the car and headed toward the bus stop.Before Millie could leave, he grabbed her wrist and lifted her. She felt a little unsteady, and when she looked up, she realized she was already being held by Winston.He frowned and whispered, "Millie, I'm sorry." Then, he carried her to the car.Millie fumed with frustration. "Winston, have you got any idea what respect means?"She had repeatedly warned him against it. She couldn't understand why he continuously insisted on being so domineering.He replied, "No idea. I just know I can't let you go back alone so late.""It's only a little past

    Upon hearing her words, Winston's heart ached, and he felt overwhelmed by his helplessness. He looked at Millie, his eyes growing darker. Over the past three years, he had seen Millie's eyes change from full of love to full of hate.Winston's voice was filled with profound guilt as he frowned. "Millie, I regret what I did. Please, tell me how I can make things right, so you can forgive me and come back to me!"He was severely mistaken."No matter how much you pester me, there's absolutely no chance for us, Winston," Millie stated firmly."Can you try to understand me? Joanna said she saved me, so I—""You keep repeating yourself, but have you even thought about whether I want to hear it or not?" She cut him off.Millie gazed into Winston's eyes, but she found no trace of love within them. It seemed as though he was only doing and saying these things out of a sense of regret at the thought of losing her. He should really question himself if he truly loved her."You repeatedly men

    As Millie closed the car door, Winston glanced up at her. The cold wind tousled her hair as she gazed at him one final time. With a bitter smile, she lowered her head. Then, the door shut with a resounding thud, as if severing all ties between them. He realized he could never be close to her, not now or ever.Millie tried to flag down a cab by the roadside, but none were willing to stop. They were either occupied or merely driving past. When she tried to request a cab on her app, she couldn't find any available.Winston watched her walk away in the biting cold wind and laughed at himself. He tilted his head, propped his forehead with one hand, and recalled what Millie had said earlier. "You knew how much I loved you back then. How could I stand by and do nothing when you were kidnapped?"Winston, you don't get what love is."You don't understand your true desires, which is why you believe you can settle for your marriage partner. And I'm the person you settle for."Before you

    Millie clicked on the message and was greeted by an adorable emoji. It was a message from Sean. "Are you free for a movie tomorrow?"Millie knew that Sean liked her. However, she wasn't interested in a romantic relationship at the moment, so she turned him down. "I'm quite busy.""Are you busy? Or are you trying to avoid me?"Millie thought he was quite clever and knew she was avoiding him.Sean texted again, "Let's just watch a movie. It's not a big deal. I recently got back, and you're the only female friend I have. It would be kind of strange for me to go watch a movie with Jake and Win, don't you think?"He couldn't go with Jake and Winston, so he decided to invite her. Winston would be furious if he found out. Millie smiled. "You should go with Jack. He'll be happy to go with you."The reason she said so was because Jake had been extremely idle lately. In the afternoon, Rachel shared a screenshot of a chat with Millie. The chat contained her conversation with Jake. He aske

    "Win, aren't you regretting it too soon? How long has it been since your divorce?" Selma's tone was clearly accusatory and playful.Winston could feel it. He was fully aware that Selma held him responsible. Following his divorce from Millie, his family was pretty upset. In fact, Selma had been ignoring him for a long time."Grandma, please stop mocking me," Winston said, turning his head away to avoid facing Selma.Selma sneered. "I'm glad that you see through my mockery. It seems Joanna didn't completely deceive you after all!"Selma's comment was sharp and biting. Winston was already feeling quite emotional, and her words felt like a stab to him. He exclaimed, "Grandma!"He came here to seek comfort and express his thoughts, not to be scolded. He stood up and was about to leave.Selma snorted. "Go ahead. Don't visit me again after you leave!"Winston paused. Selma had offered him a way out, so he had to accept it. The room was bathed in soft, dim light, and the glow of the TV

    Winston wore a black suit and trench coat. The smoke from his cigarette floated in the wind. Young women passing by glanced at him, then quickly looked away and walked off. Millie frowned. At that instant, he glanced up and locked eyes with her. Thus, Millie decided to turn back and return to the research lab to continue reviewing the documents."Millie," Winston called out.She ignored him and kept walking."I'll wait for you," he added.Millie had no choice but to stop. She turned and looked at Winston. She was convinced that he would be standing here, waiting for her.She was annoyed. "You're disrupting my life."I'm sorry." He apologized.Millie found it amusing how shameless he had become. He used to never apologize, but now he just couldn't stop saying sorry, regardless of the situation. Just as Millie was about to scold him, Sean approached. Sean was slightly surprised that Winston was there as well. "Win, you're here too."Millie was helpless. It was another intense

    Millie looked around and noticed several employees already watching them. Not wanting to be the center of attention, she turned to Sean and said, "I'll join you for the movie. Let's go."Then, Millie quickly walked toward him.Observing this, Winston grew increasingly anxious. His tone conveyed a sense of urgency. "It's only fair that everything should be done on a first-come, first-served basis. After all, I was the first one here!"Sean gazed at him and asked, "What exactly are you referring to? The sequence of our arrival? But I invited Millie last night.""Did you two really promise to go out last night?" Winston was slightly stunned.Millie had been eating all night and then in his car. Winston paused, wondering when Sean had texted her. Was it while she was on her way back? It was so late, yet Sean, the scoundrel, was still texting Millie?Winston glared at Sean furiously. He pondered whether this scoundrel was truly serious about challenging him.Millie sensed the tension

    "Thank you." Millie smiled faintly at Winston. "Share your QR code with me. I'll Venmo you.""It's my treat," he replied.She quickly declined his offer. "I can afford a cup of soft drink. You don't have to.""Millie, do you have to be so defensive? It's just a cup of soft drink like you said." Feeling frustrated, he remarked, "We could remain friends if we can't go back to lovers. Why do you have to make me an enemy?""Gosh, I wished we could be enemies," she said with a smile as he choked on his words.She repeated herself once more, "Show me your receipt."She was very insistent on paying him back.Sean, who passed by, chimed in, "Hold onto your tickets. It's time to enter."She nodded at him. Since Winston refused to share his QR code, Millie had no choice but to order a new drink."Hi, I would like to order the exact same drink for him," she said to the staff.After putting in the order, she left with Sean, leaving Winston fuming on the spot. He had even thought of sto

    "Is this… a painting by Quentin Scott?" Layla asked, a bit incredulous.The Caldwell family held quite a respectable reputation in Yerwick City. Coupled with Layla's status, she was certainly not lacking in esteem.She wanted to buy this painting and had been trying to purchase it for over a year, but she still wasn't able to get it.The moment Winston nodded, she once again sensed the disparity between the Caldwell family and the Greer family.Although they didn't disagree that Winston wronged Millie, the truth was that they did have a good sense in their choices."Grandma, this is a painting by Quentin Scott. I bought it directly from Quentin Scott's assistant myself. It's absolutely genuine." Winston nodded, his demeanor gentle and well-mannered.Layla had thought Winston might give her something she liked, but she never expected that he would actually give her the painting "Where Mountains Meet the Sea" by Quentin Scott!Layla couldn't help but stand up and approach Winston.

    Winston had already decided to humble himself completely to make sure his wife remained happy."Go on in," Thomas finally said.Millie and Winston went inside, where Everly was crouching next to Arthur, working on the lights with him.Winston put down the gifts he brought and asked, "Can I help with anything?""Ah, Winston, you're here. Come on in and warm up a bit." Arthur smiled and didn't say anything more.Millie nodded, indicating that Winston should go in first.Thomas and Everly stayed outside working on the lights while Millie, Winston, and Arthur went inside the house.In the living room, Layla was eating chips and watching TV. When she saw that Winston had arrived, she remained expressionless.Millie glanced cautiously at her grandmother with a gentle expression."Grandpa, I brought some good coffee beans." Winston placed a gift box on the coffee table.Arthur chuckled and said, "You didn't need to bring any gifts. You already brought plenty last time."The last gi

    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,
