"The elevator's here." Winston pointed at the arriving elevator, signaling at Kennedy to leave.Kennedy was frustrated. He knew very well he was no match for Winston, yet he insisted on fighting back.Before he left, Winston said coolly, "Kennedy, you're a capable man. The Greer Group might be able to help you if you're willing to put aside your prejudice toward me."Despite Kennedy's competence, business was hard these years. He alone couldn't build an empire of his own.Though Winston had approached him with an offering of peace, he refused to accept it. He stepped into the elevator, adamant not to use Winston's help.Frowning, Winston let out a sigh. Whatever.Suddenly, he heard footsteps from behind. He thought it was Jake, but he turned to find Sonny with Terrence.Terrence looked overjoyed to win the bid. The Lowell Group had historically won these bids; companies like the Caldwell Group never stood a chance.It was at that moment he spotted Winston, whose expression fell

"Mr. Caldwell, I'm taking a break because I've not been feeling well." Winston cooked up an excuse.Business-minded men such as Terrence placed a lot of emphasis on work and a person's commitment to his company.Winston didn't want Terrence to look down on him, and therefore, he did not admit that he had taken a break from work just to focus on winning back Millie's heart.Unfortunately, Jake, who knew the truth, had to keep his silence. Winston was everything but sick; he was out having fun all day, hanging out at markets or bars, and even racing with Millie.No one would believe that he was sick.Winston shot his friend a warning look so that Jake wouldn't accidentally laugh out loud. Jake took a sip of his tea and a bite of dessert.At that moment, he received a text. He smiled after reading it.Rachel wrote, "Filming has kicked off, but I'll be back tomorrow night to attend a gala. There are so many year-end galas at this time of the year. I'm busy."He was glad to see Rach

Winston put on a serious face. He didn't think of Terrence's remark as being abrasive. If anything, he was grateful to Terrence for being honest with him."Mr. Caldwell, I have resolved the misunderstanding between me and Millie. I can tell you for sure that I love her to my core." His eyes burned with passion, and he sounded genuine.Still, he failed to convince Terrence after his declaration of love. To Terrence, love wasn't the most important ingredient in a lifelong relationship; problems would surface, and love alone wasn't enough to solve problems in life.A couple needed to take responsibility for each other and help each other out. Sadly, he didn't see Winston as the candidate who could see it through; Winston couldn't possibly tolerate Millie's temper."Mr. Caldwell, I will not let her down again. I'm so indebted to Millie for what I've done to her. I promise I'll treat her right. I hope you and Mrs. Caldwell give me a second chance.""Mr. Greer, I—" Terrence managed a si

Terrence couldn't stop his gaze from drifting to Winston. So, he refused to give up, huh?"What makes you think holding on will make Millie notice you?" Terrence snapped, his frustration evident.He continued, "Winston Greer, don't think we'll hesitate to stand up to you just because of your status. Let me make one thing clear—you and Millie? It's never going to happen."Terrence's voice hardened. He had tried being polite, but that had gotten him nowhere, so he decided to take a firmer stance. Still, even that wasn't enough to make Winston back down."Mr. Caldwell, Millie's going to have to settle down with someone eventually," Winston replied with a frown. "Can you really hold this one mistake against me forever? How do you know her life would be better without me?"His words left both Terrence and Jake visibly stunned.Terrence, in particular, was shocked by Winston's audacity. How could he believe that Millie's life would only be better with him?Beside him, Jake gently tugg

The latest news article read, "Winston Greer was spotted taking Millie Caldwell home last night. Today, reporters caught him meeting with Jake Webson and Terrence Caldwell, sparking speculation—Is Winston planning to reconcile with his ex-wife, Millie?"Winston had just settled into his car when he stumbled upon the news. He then chuckled at the absurdity of it all.As he glanced around, everyone seemed like a paparazzo. He couldn't help but curse them inwardly. With so many celebrities to chase, why were they fixated on him?At that moment, his phone buzzed again.Annoyed, Winston picked it up. As he prepared to delete the message, he noticed it was from Millie.Millie: "Did you meet up with my dad?"Winston stared at her text for a moment, hesitating to respond. It was rare for her to reach out like this.Winston: "Yeah."Millie: "What did he say?"Winston: "He scolded me."Millie: "As he should."Her reply came quickly, and Winston chuckled in exasperation. As he should?

In an instant, the room grew quiet. Hank didn't dare ask another question. From the sharpness in her voice, it was obvious how upset she was with Winston.As Millie tried to refocus on her work, she remembered Terrence's message and couldn't help but sigh.…Sure enough, when Millie finished work, she saw Terrence waiting outside. It was obvious he was worried she would make the same mistake and reconcile with Winston.However, Terrence wasn't alone. Winston had shown up too.The two men barely acknowledged each other. Winston stood by Terrence's car, but Terrence stayed inside, not even sparing him a glance. Terrence wasn't worried about offending Winston at all. His only concern was Millie's happiness. She was his only child, his whole world. Standing beside the car, Millie frowned as she looked at Winston. She had gotten used to his superiority, so seeing him repeatedly being ignored like this felt strangely unfamiliar."I'm heading home now," she said, breaking the silenc

"I used to think if you couldn't manage the company, I'd let my son-in-law take over. But now…" Terrence figured it was better to rely on himself.Millie fell silent. Back then, she had always assumed she didn't need to worry about the company's affairs. With Winston in the picture, her involvement seemed unnecessary.Maybe, for a brief moment, Terrence had thought the same. Millie locked her phone and gazed out the window. Winter had transformed Yerwick City again, casting a nostalgic spell that made it hard to let go of the past. In no time, the car stopped in front of a house.Millie stepped out first, glancing into the courtyard. From inside, she heard Everly's frustrated voice. "She stole my role again? Is she out of her mind? My dad is Thomas Caldwell! How dare she go up against me!"First, she shows up wearing the same outfit as me on the red carpet, and now she's trying to steal my role? Is she purposely going after me? "And the last jewelry set she had was a custom,

Millie pushed the door open, gesturing for Everly to step inside and see for herself.A rush of excitement surged through Everly. In an instant, her earlier anger vanished completely. "Mills, do you really know Butterfly? I always thought you were just bragging." She hadn't taken Millie's words seriously after that day. But to her surprise, Millie had actually brought back Butterfly's comeback collection.With the box in her hands, Everly rushed into the living room. She barely had time to greet anyone before hastily opening it.The box was exquisite, and as she opened it, she discovered another layer to unwrap. Butterfly's packaging was distinctive, featuring an outer layer that hinted at something luxurious and mysterious.Once Everly peeled that away, the details were revealed—the name, design concepts, the materials used, and even a designer introduction.Inside, a password lock awaited her, adorned with a charming image. Everly needed to find three specific numbers to unloc

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

"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
