She's Out of Your League Now Chapter 691
At the Greer Group factory, the media had been waiting for hours, anticipating Winston's arrival. An incident of this scale required his personal presence.Near the ruins, the victims' families wept openly, their cries cutting through the air with raw, unbearable grief.As soon as Winston's car pulled up, a crowd descended on him—grieving family members, security personnel, and reporters.Before stepping out, Eli turned to remind Winston, "Mr. Greer, we need to handle this delicately. Three people have died, so we need to agree to whatever the families request."Winston gave a silent nod, a sense of guilt weighing on him as he glanced at the devastated families.The Greer Group had always prided itself on strict safety measures across its factories, shops, and offices. So, he couldn't understand how an explosion like this could have happened. Everything about the whole situation felt off.The moment the car door opened, a wave of chaotic voices surged toward him from every direct

"Take them to the office," Winston instructed Eli. Eli nodded and began directing the staff to escort the victims' families out. Suddenly, one of the relatives shouted, "I'm not leaving!""We can discuss compensation and the next steps. Please let us know if you have any requests," Eli said.The man erupted in anger. "Is money supposed to fix this? Is that all you think matters? No amount of cash can bring my son back! He was just starting his life after graduating from university!"Winston immediately recognized that this man was the father of the 24-year-old worker who had died.Every camera turned toward the man as his cries filled the air. He wept openly, his grief on full display for everyone to see."What kind of factory do you run? What safety measures do you even have? Winston Greer, how the hell did you make it to the top?"That single accusation dragged Winston into a crisis. Before long, the authorities issued a directive for all Greer Group subsidiaries to shut down

Millie logged into the M Base network and immediately spotted a viral post.User123 had written, "Paying top dollar for explosives. You know what I mean."Millie squinted at the screen. This person was shockingly brazen. Flaunting such a transaction so openly was reckless. To make matters worse, the explosion at the Greer Group factory had happened right after they purchased the explosives. Didn't they worry that people might connect the dots?Millie checked the user's profile and saw their IP address was from Yerwick City. Their arrogance was astounding! It was as if they were daring everyone to link them to the factory explosion.She sighed, deleted the posts, and banned the user. Then, she texted Marvin, "Have you found out who this person is?"Marvin: "Drew is still working on it, but it's tough because they're using a fake identity."Millie was intrigued. It made sense why they were so daring; hiding behind a fake identity had emboldened them.Millie: "Understood."Marvi

When Millie arrived at the hospital, she walked past Winston, who was on the phone. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked utterly exhausted, so much so that he didn't even notice her.He stood at the end of the corridor, the harsh midday sunlight pouring over him. It was so intense it seemed to burn right through him. Winston rubbed his temples, then rested his hand on his stomach. Millie watched him for a moment. She had never seen him look this drained before.With a quiet sigh, Millie turned and headed to the emergency room. Gloria sat on a bench, her hands clenched tightly, while Brian was nowhere in sight."Mrs. Greer," Millie called out.The moment Gloria saw her, tears immediately streamed down her face. "Mills!""What happened to Grandma?" Millie asked."She was already so weak. When she saw all that news about Greer Group this morning, she got worried, and… the stress was just too much for her."Tears continued to stream down Gloria's cheeks, and her trembling voic

Winston's gaze lingered on Millie for a long moment. He knew that, while Terrence was a compassionate man, he wouldn't stand up for him at this point. So, Millie's statement was likely just her own perspective.He felt a deep gratitude toward her and a profound regret for how he had lost and hurt her. Winston wasn't sure how to make amends, so all he could do was spend the rest of his life trying to atone for his mistakes."Thank you," Winston said weakly, barely managing a nod. Millie remained silent and turned her attention back to the emergency room. At that moment, the light above the emergency room door went out. Sebastian soon appeared and reassured them, "Everything's fine. She just had a bit of a scare."Millie looked puzzled. "How could Grandma have a scare without any apparent reason?""That's something you'll need to ask the guardian," Sebastian replied, offering no further explanation.Feeling uneasy, Millie turned to Gloria, who wore a troubled expression. "I di

Without a word, Millie nudged a chair toward Winston, signaling for him to sit. He glanced at her briefly, then took a seat."Copy all the footage with this person in it and send it to this email," Millie instructed the security guard.She scribbled down an address and added, "And try to get me a clear shot of their face.""That might be tough," the security guard told her. Whoever this was, they were good at staying out of sight. None of the footage had a clear view of their face."That's exactly why I came to you." Millie smiled and patted his shoulder. "I know it's not easy, but don't worry, you'll be well compensated once this is done."The security guard gave her a faint smile but said nothing more.Winston leaned back in his chair. He gazed at Millie, a mix of emotions stirring inside him. It was the first time he had truly seen her in this way.He had always thought she was just an ordinary woman who wouldn't survive in the real world. But now, he realized how wrong he

Millie turned to look at Winston. "What?"He fell silent for a moment, then met her gaze and repeated, "I'm asking if you're leaving.""What, can't bear to see me go?" Millie responded lightly.They locked eyes as she spoke. It had been a long time since they had looked at each other this way. Yet, their gazes conveyed different emotions now.In the past, it was Millie who showed reluctance. Now, Winston's eyes revealed the same feeling. Where his gaze once held indifference and amusement, those emotions now appeared in her eyes."If I said I couldn't bear to see you go, would you stay a little longer?"Winston pressed his lips together as he watched the elevator numbers tick down. Before long, they reached the first floor.Millie glanced at him and chuckled. "That's not very convincing."Winston fell silent. He had never been good at begging. In his entire life, he had never had to.When the elevator doors opened, Millie noticed him clutching his stomach. With a sigh, she sai

With that, Winston walked over. Millie's tone was no longer gentle. Instead, it was cold and commanding.He couldn't deny the truth—she had indeed changed. It wasn't just her feelings for him that had faded. Everything had shifted drastically.After examining Winston, the doctor started an IV drip and repeatedly advised him to eat his meals on time.Millie stood by and listened without uttering a word. If Winston had heeded medical advice, he wouldn't have found himself in the hospital so often due to his stomach issues.As she set a glass of warm water on the bedside table, she looked at Winston's pale face and said, "Eli is likely swamped with work, so I didn't call him to keep you company. "I've asked the nurse to monitor your IV drip. I'm going upstairs to check on Grandma. You should be okay on your own, right?"Winston glanced at her, his lips moving as if to speak. He wanted to say he wasn't fine, but he didn't know how Selma was faring.So, he replied, "I want to go wit

"Maybe, there's a little bit of liking." Millie tilted her head, "Do you believe in genuine friendship between men and women?""Maybe…" Winston answered, sounding a bit unsure of himself.Millie pouted and mimicked his words, "Maybe…?"Winston looked down and said, "Maybe not."Millie nodded, saying, "But the feelings of the older generation are very genuine. Let them be. Grandma and Grandpa have a stable relationship, and that's what matters."Winston really couldn't agree more."Grandpa treats Grandma really well. Didn't I go grocery shopping with them yesterday? Grandpa is constantly looking out for her, and Grandma does the same. When she saw Grandpa nearly fall, the worry was all over her face… This is what it truly means to grow old together."He couldn't help but add, "I hope we can also make it to the end, Millie."Millie and Winston gradually walked down the alley.The two of them rarely had the chance to talk in such a calm and peaceful setting, so they both cherishe

Thomas said, "Please, have a seat. No need to stand on ceremony."Thomas figured he couldn't be too unwelcoming, could he? He needed to act more charming.After all, this was Winston's first time spending the Spring Festival with the Caldwell family, and it was entirely his own decision to come."Uncle Thomas, is there anything I can help with?" Winston asked.Thomas shook his head and said, "Just take a seat. Not causing trouble would be the biggest help.""Dad, come on. We're adults now, not kids anymore. Stop messing around!" Everly scoffed.Thomas squinted and smiled without saying anything. He set down his beer bottle and went back to his tasks.Layla went to put away her calligraphy and paintings, and she even posted an update on Instagram.Millie saw an Instagram post and couldn't help but smile. Layla really knew how to show off.Layla: "Today, I received "Where Mountains Meet the Sea" by Quentin Scott. I really like it. Thank you."Winston didn't have access to Layla

Millie glanced at Winston with initial shock and disbelief in her eyes. Then a hint of amusement appeared, and soon she couldn't hold it in and broke into laughter."Haha!" Millie raised her hand and placed the back of it on Winston's forehead.He didn't have a fever, right? Why else would he go along with such an absurd request?"Winston, where's your self-respect?" Millie tapped Winston's head.Winston furrowed his brow, wondering what exactly self-respect was supposed to be. Was it something edible, or could he use it to pursue Millie?She wanted to hear him, so he just played along for her. After all, women only needed a little bit of coaxing."I have none. It's all gone. Maybe the dog ate it." Winston spread his hands with a helpless expression on his face.Millie laughed and said, "You're being silly. Go help Grandpa put up the Spring Festival couplets!"Winston nodded. "Alright, let's get to work."Millie watched Winston as he bustled about, and a wave of emotions began

Winston nodded with a smile and said, "Grandma, I understand."Millie smiled warmly, unable to hold back her laughter. Layla was just so endearing."Alright, the lights are all set up. What's on the menu today, and who's cooking?" Thomas walked in casually.Everly took off her coat and saw that there was a painting in front of Layla."Oh, could this be something that Mr. Greer brought?" she asked. "This painting looks really expensive.""Mr. Greer, do I get a gift?" Everly couldn't help teasing Winston.Winston knew that this was yet another person coming to give him a challenge."Sorry. I didn't know you and Uncle Thomas were here, so I didn't prepare anything. If there's something you like, I can buy it for you," he offered."How hilarious! Do you think I can't afford it? Do I need you to buy it?" Everly scoffed.Winston smiled and said, "Yes, you can afford it, but there's always a difference between something gifted to you and something you buy for yourself.""Mr. Greer i

"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
