Millie smiled. "What is it?"Julia narrowed her eyes. "Why don't you announce that you're married?"Millie fell silent. That was definitely an insane suggestion."Winston will surely ask me about my husband. How am I supposed to answer that?" Millie looked baffled."Just throw him off by saying you got married to a distant relative of yours. That's simple." Julia shrugged, thinking it was no big deal at all.Millie laughed. "Mom, it's Winston Greer we're talking about! He's not an average guy!"As long as Winston set his mind to researching her alleged husband, he would receive all the information he needed in a few hours' time, including the ancestry of the said man.Julia's idea was clearly not workable."If he looks into the matter, our family can lie for you. Let's all say that you're married to a distant relative. What's he gonna do about it?" Julia looked confident in her plan.After seconds of silent staring at the ceiling, Millie shook her head. "Forget about it. Let t

Millie clutched the bouquet tighter. "What does that have to do with Joanna's suicide?"Logan seemed to be in a great hurry, and he did not like her answer.Millie, refusing to waste her time, replied curtly, "No, I will not remarry him."Logan chuckled. "Are you sure?"At that moment, someone called his name, "Logan! Logan! How's your sister doing?"Millie looked behind Logan. Ethan arrived, holding a rather confused-looking Harriet."Dad, Mom, Joanna's in the ER, but I think she'll be fine," he replied.Harriet immediately noticed Millie's presence. She didn't like that young lady at all. Millie too stared at Harriet with hostility. Ever since the abduction, her relationship with Harriet had irrevocably soured.This was, however, Ethan's first time meeting Millie. An unexplainable feeling stirred within him when he rested his gaze on the young lady. She was a stranger who felt very familiar…Her beauty reminded him of someone.Millie squirmed under his intense scrutiny. S

Harriet nodded furiously. Thank goodness Joanna was well and alive! She had caused them so much stress.She could have talked to them about her worries instead of taking her life at the first inconvenience. What would death bring? Relief?Was the world such a hard place for Joanna? There were more who lived harder lives than her! Some wanted desperately for a chance at life, but they were not so lucky. How could she repeatedly seek to die?Harriet couldn't wrap her head around Joanna's actions. However, every time she expressed her disapproval, Logan would lecture her, "Joanna suffers from depression. She sees the world differently than us."Harriet had no choice but to shut up, but she often wondered if Joanna's act of hurting herself was ever justifiable.…Back at the Cardiac Surgery Department, Joanna stirred awake when she was sent to her room. A look of disappointment crossed her eyes when she noticed her family in the room. Finally, she shut her eyes."You silly child! Ho

A look of confusion crossed Millie's face. Why did Logan ask for her birthday?"Ms. Caldwell, I don't have any intentions. I just want to learn about your birthday," Logan clarified.Puzzled by his intentions, she lied, "It's in March."After a pause, he smiled. "Okay." He didn't pester her with other questions after that.She frowned when the elevator doors closed behind her. Another elevator arrived, and a familiar face appeared from within.She called out to him, "Hey, Uncle Thomas!"Thomas beamed at her. "Oh, it's you, Mills.""Are you here to visit Grandma?"Thomas replied, "Yeah. Shall we have dinner later? Your cousin is back in town."She blinked in surprise. Huh. Was Everly back?"Has she wrapped up the filming?" Millie asked Thomas.Thomas nodded. "Yeah. She finally wrapped up filming after joining the set for three years.""It's fine. A good show takes time. Besides, you were the one who got her the job," said Millie with a smile.Sighing, Thomas said, "I ran in

Arthur nodded and agreed flippantly, but Millie knew that he was listening. She smiled and arranged Layla's blanket before saying, "I'll leave for the lab now.""Go. Get to work." Layla waved at her.Millie pouted. Layla really didn't care to make her stay. "Alright. I'll visit you when I have time."Millie left after chatting with Thomas. She had a ton of work awaiting her at the lab. When she stepped into the lobby and past the emergency department, she ran into Eli."Ms. Caldwell?" Eli was equally surprised to see Millie at the hospital."I'm here to visit my grandma. What brings you here?" she asked, noticing the medicine and the test report in his hand.He explained, "Oh, Mr. Greer suffered from gastric issues last night. He's here for an IV drip and some medicines." She glanced at the emergency department. How did he suffer from gastric issues? She thought he went home after the movies last night."Did he go drinking?" she asked."Yeah." Eli's heart was beating wildly
She's Out of Your League Now Chapter 599
Winston accepted the glass of water but didn't drink it. Setting the glass on the table, he got out of bed. "I'm not getting the IV drip. Let's make a move to the office.""Huh? Mr. Greer, you need to take the IV drip," Eli called out to him, but he grabbed his suit jacket and marched out of the room.The nurse who walked past stopped him loudly. "Mr. Greer, are you done with the IV infusion?"Eli ran after Winston with the medicine in his hand. The corridor was packed, and all eyes were on Winston. He wasn't in good shape, yet he carried himself with his usual assertiveness.Winston had changed his clothes and strode out of the emergency department. Not long after he descended the stairs, he spotted Millie standing beside a car.She looked up in the middle of a call and accidentally met his eyes. He came to a halt.Millie turned to enter the car, and Winston called out from behind, "Millie!"She ignored him and got into the car, engrossed in the phone call about some research d

Everly's expression crumpled right away. From the outset, she harbored an unspoken resentment toward Millie—a gnawing jealousy fueled by Millie's surpassing beauty. And now, as Millie settled beside her, Everly couldn't help but feel overshadowed."Dad, should we switch seats?" she asked Thomas.Thomas, however, looked displeased. "You two haven't seen each other in ages. You should have a good chat with Millie. Stop acting up when you're with family."He was acutely aware of Everly's bad temper, which he had repeatedly requested her to work on. Alas, picking up bad habits was easier than adopting good ones.Millie smiled when Everly failed to switch seats. "Evie, why do you look like you're scared of me? You're running away as soon as I arrive. Are you worried you might be outshone when you sat beside me?"She sipped her water with an arched eyebrow. It took her no time to guess what was on Everly's mind.Everly snapped, "No way! Stop being narcissistic! The netizens all agree t
She's Out of Your League Now Chapter 601
Another reason behind Everly's distaste of Millie was Millie's pettiness. There was no doubt that Millie would fight back after she was openly attacked by Everly."What do you mean by 'done the deed'? Care to elaborate? Did I do something shameful? And what's wrong with being a divorcee; are we humans with lesser worth and not deserving of respect? Is it acceptable to look down on us?" Millie slammed her fist on the table as fury colored her eyes.How dare that little brat attack divorcees? What was wrong with being one? No woman would have opted for a divorce if they were happy in their marriage!On the contrary, Millie had nothing but respect for women who were brave enough to leave an unhappy marriage.Why should a woman remain in a marriage that had imprisoned her soul and wasted away her youth for the rest of her life?Millie never felt lesser after the divorce. If anything, she valued herself even more! After she was no longer Winston's wife, she returned to being Arthur a

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
