Chapter 974

Author: Gina Cinq
Winston's voice was deep and carried an irresistible authority.

Millie rested her hand on his shoulder while Winston helped her put on her shoes.

His touch was gentle, as if he was afraid of hurting her.

His arm had started bleeding, yet he couldn't feel any pain at all.

Winston stood up after he was done helping her put on her shoes.

"Mr. Greer, your arm… Do you need to go to the hospital?" Eli quietly asked from behind.

"Why go to a hospital for such a minor injury? I'll handle it myself when I get back," Winston glanced at the wound. He didn't consider it a big deal.

Millie pointed to his arm and said, "Let me take care of it for you."

Winston looked up at Millie with a questioning expression.

"Eli, go and buy some iodine and gauze," Millie instructed.

Eli nodded and immediately went to get those items.

There was no one else around, leaving behind just Millie and Winston.

Winston knew that Millie was worried about him. He genuinely felt that his injury was worth it.

    In the early dawn, Yerwick City was unusually quiet due to the fire that occurred. There were fewer cars on the road, and the city lights didn't seem as bright anymore.Winston quietly gazed out the window as the woman who he cherished deeply now rested on his shoulder. He slightly turned his head to look at Millie's downcast expression and couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.He looked at Millie's hand resting by her side and summoned the courage to hold it. However, just as he was about to touch it, he pulled back again.He looked away once more. His eyebrows slightly furrowed as he recalled the things Millie had told him."In these seven years, have you ever really loved me at all?""Winston, I want a divorce.""I've loved you for seven years, Winston. I've lost."She admitted in her own words that she had lost. In this game of love, she gave her all but ended up with nothing. She had lost completely.Winston closed his eyes. Just the thought of these things made his

    Winston glanced sideways at Eli and heard him say, "She outperformed a lot of male racers in the country! She held the top position consistently, but strangely, she hasn't appeared in recent years."Oh wait, didn't she just make an appearance at Python Mountain this summer?"Winston frowned. Did Eli just say Python Mountain?Winston didn't often visit racing tracks, but he had a clear memory of the place called Python Mountain.Last time, there was a female race car driver who dominated and outperformed all the other competitors on the track.If he remembered correctly, she was the female racing driver Eli talked about. "Seven?" he asked aloud."Seven!"He and Eli almost said the name in unison.However, one was asked as a question, while the other was a statement."Oh, Mr. Greer, you know about Seven?" Eli smiled. "Looks like you aren't buried in work every single day."He was even somewhat aware of the trends.Winston glanced at Eli but didn't say anything.Eli said, "Sev

    Inside the car, Winston texted Jake.Winston: "Still awake?"Jake: "Hey, I just finished an international meeting. Are you back? Everything alright?"Winston: "Everything's fine. Get some rest. I'm taking Millie home."Jake: "Tsk, Winston! If you keep putting in the effort, it looks like Mills might really want to remarry you."Jake: "If you really manage to win her over this time, make sure you treat her well. Honestly, that woman is really softhearted."Winston read the message from Jake, and a hint of emotion gradually appeared in his eyes. It was true that Millie was softhearted.Winston turned his head slightly, and his gaze landed on Millie.Millie was still asleep, hugging her arms tightly around herself as if she felt very insecure.Winston responded to Jake's text, "Got it."Jake replied, "Alright, then. Good night."Winston didn't respond to Jake any longer.When the car arrived at Caldwell Villa, Winston simply watched Millie sleep. He was hesitant to wake her.

    A black, unremarkable Ferrari parked in the parking lot of Python Mountain.Millie picked up the hat next to her and put on a pair of black sunglasses. The sunglasses covered half of her face, and the black padded coat she was wearing perfectly wrapped around her figure.With that disguise, no one should be able to recognize her.Millie got out of the car and saw Marvin in the distance, waving and shouting, "Boss!"No one would recognize her… except Marvin.No matter how much she disguised herself or changed cars, he was always the first to find her. It was as if Marvin had a GPS tracker on her!Next to Marvin was Elliott."Did you have the free time today?" Millie asked.Elliott nodded and replied calmly, "I don't have any classes. Marvin mentioned you were coming to race tonight, so I decided to come along."Millie smiled warmly and gave Elliott's arm a gentle tap.The group entered the racing venue from the parking lot. It seemed a lot of people had shown up tonight. There

    The gossip continued. "Is it really Mr. Greer and Mr. ?""Their arrival really brought today's match to a whole new level of excitement.""There's all this fuss about both Mr. Greer and Seven—there isn't even this much hype for official events!"Everyone laughed heartily as they watched Winston and Jake get invited into a VIP room.Millie lowered her head and played with her phone in one hand, trying to seem uninterested in the men who just appeared.Marvin, on the other hand, was also hesitant to look up. After all, Winston knew who he was.Although Millie was bundled up tightly today, it was still hard to miss her if they happened to glance over.Winston was just about to enter the VIP room when he heard someone behind him call out, "Mr. Greer."As Winston turned, his gaze accidentally fell on Millie.Millie kept her head down and didn't look at him. Her sunglasses still covered half of her face.Winston furrowed his brow. That person looked somewhat familiar.He was think

    Winston nodded slightly and said, "Alright."Nolan was surprised. Was Winston really going to look into the woman? Wasn't he trying to win Millie back?Nolan smirked slightly and quickly left the room. By the time he went out, Millie wasn't at her seat. Only Marvin and Elliott were left.Millie felt that staying here might not be very safe, so she decided to test-drive her car.She was just here for fun, and if her cover got blown, it would ruin the whole thing.She wouldn't use her signature move in tonight's race. Her signature move was so distinctive that as soon as she used it, everyone would immediately know it was her."Hmm, I still have no idea who Seven actually is.""I really want to compete with Seven. There's a saying that goes something like, you don't realize how inexperienced you are until Seven gives you a tough challenge!""Hey, do you guys think Seven is attractive or not?""She's probably not very attractive. Otherwise, why hasn't she shown her face?""But s

    Winston was dressed in a black casual outfit with a long black winter coat over it. His attire made him look relaxed and very warm.Millie froze, surprised that Winston greeted her so directly.She pressed her lips together, deliberately lowered her voice, and nodded. "Hello."Her voice was noticeably deeper and had a bit of a rough edge compared to how she usually sounded. The sound that came out from her didn't quite match the part of her face that was visible.Winston squinted, as the voice was somewhat unexpected to him. But the person's build and height looked very familiar to him."Are you a racer for tonight?" he asked.Millie nodded with a stern expression and remained silent."I heard that Seven will also be participating in the competition tonight." He came over to Millie's side, looking toward the testing grounds."Are you a fan of Seven?" Millie asked calmly, keeping her tone low.He looked at Millie with a smile and suddenly retorted, "Didn't you just say you were

    Winston felt embarrassed and apologized, "I'm really sorry. I was being inconsiderate."He glanced again at Millie and apologized once more before leaving.Millie looked at the back of Winston's figure and grasped Elliott's arm a bit more tightly.It was a good thing Elliott came, otherwise she wouldn't have known what to do just now."If he wants to take a photo together, just go along with it. It's not noticeable," Elliott quietly suggested.Millie shook her head and said, "When you freeze a moment in a photo and take a closer look, there's always something that gives you away."Elliott laughed and said, "Boss, you're really cautious.""Hey! If I had known they were coming, I wouldn't have come!" she lamented.If Milie's disguise got exposed, it would really be a disaster beyond her control.Elliott glanced at Millie with a hint of melancholy and asked, "Boss, isn't using too many aliases a bit troublesome? It's quite nerve-wracking to go out every day using a different alia

    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
