"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

Just then, the door to the ward swung open. Millie turned to see Gloria stepping inside."Where's Win?" Gloria asked. "His gastritis flared up. I just took him to the emergency department for an IV drip," Millie replied.Gloria paused for a moment, then let out a sigh. "He's always making people worry about him. Ever since he left you, his life's been a complete mess. Mills, I…"Her gaze lingered on Millie. There were so many things she wanted to say, but when their eyes met, the words seemed to vanish. A heavy silence settled between them, and eventually, all that was left was a deep sigh. Millie looked at Gloria, and a surge of sympathy she couldn't quite describe swept over her.Selma had fallen ill, Winston was wrapped up in his own problems, and Brian was buried in work at the company. That left Gloria to handle everything at home on her own. And she still had her job to worry about.Life was tough for everyone, especially adults. Millie felt for Gloria, so she decided to

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
