Chapter 161

Gideon chugged the glass of vodka before Millie could finish. Smiling at her, he asked, "Have I proven my sincerity?"Arching an eyebrow, she smiled. "You have. I appreciate that, Mr. Anderson. I'll take a drink!" She raised her glass and gracefully downed the contents.Millie was no stranger to drinking culture. Besides, she wouldn't want to humiliate Thomas at a dinner he hosted.She was never a sore loser. She wouldn't foolishly cause a scene over something as insignificant as drinking and upset everyone.Thomas reminded Gideon, "Mr. Anderson, we have to talk business later. You should pace yourself."Gideon waved at him. "I know my limits."Millie also shot Thomas a reassuring look. Just like Gideon, she knew her limits."Good." Thomas nodded and cast a worried look at her."Mr. Anderson, what's your role in this project?" Millie enthusiastically engaged Gideon in conversation, and he chatted nonstop with her.During the conversation, they had a few more drinks. Most of th

Millie found it hard to believe that some people were kept in the dark about her marriage. She shuddered to imagine how Winston had been introducing himself to others. Did he describe himself as a bachelor?"Mr. Anderson, do you think my husband's support is enough if I were to join the entertainment industry?" she taunted Gideon.He smiled stiffly. Of course, Winston could afford to back her up. There was only one problem…He prodded cautiously, "Isn't his wife Joanna Lowell?"Millie's heart dropped, and the smile vanished from her face. Arching an eyebrow, she downed the alcohol in her glass and replied flatly, "Mr. Anderson, I suggest you read actual news instead of tabloid gossip."Gideon shot her a scrutinizing look before leaving in shame.When Thomas came over to check on Millie, she was drinking alone."What are you doing? Trying to get yourself drunk?" He snatched away a glass of alcohol, which she was about to drink.Sighing, she snatched it back. "Leave me alone.""

Another man emerged from the restroom. He froze as soon as he noticed Millie, wondering if he had entered the wrong place.Millie gulped and turned to leave. However, Winston hooked his arm around hers. He fixed his eyes on Millie, his gaze either intense or chillingly stern. She frowned while signaling for him to let go with her eyes. But Winston paid no heed. It seemed like he had no intention of releasing her. Right then, a man in his 20s staggered in and bumped into Millie's shoulder. The momentum caused her to collide with Winston. With a subtle retract of his arm, Winston pulled Millie into his embrace.While holding her close, they heard someone behind them exclaim, "Why is this woman in the men's restroom?"The man stumbled toward Millie as he spoke. He then reached out to grab her shoulder and intended to drag her out. Winston's expression shifted slightly. He frowned before pulling Millie backward, leaving the man's hand grasping thin air. "My apologies. She ma

Millie brushed off the spot where the man had touched her. She looked at him with an indifferent and contemptuous gaze. "Stop pestering me. Otherwise, you'll be sorry."Already irritated by Gideon's advances, Millie grew even more annoyed when his son appeared. Did they think she was some pushover? Was she to be bullied and stepped on by everyone?Just as Millie was about to leave, she heard a booming male voice from outside."Well, well, who has the nerve to try and make my son regret something?"Millie lifted her head, only to see Gideon walking in.At the sight of his father, Remy Anderson rushed over, shouting, "Dad, it's her! She's got me all worked up. I want her dead and to disappear from Yerwick!"Both Millie and Winston narrowed their eyes almost simultaneously. They couldn't believe Remy had the audacity to say such words. Gideon's gaze swept over them. Upon seeing Millie, he paused. Then, following her line of sight, his eyes fell on Winston.At that moment, the sil

"Are you concerned about who's been mistreating me, worried if I've been wrong, or… do you care about me?" Millie's voice trailed off, her last words barely audible. It was as if the wind had swept them away.Winston fell silent for a moment. Millie smiled wryly. She knew that asking that would only hurt herself. So, she calmly gave herself an out. "I get it, Mr. Greer. You're just looking out for me as an ex-husband."The elevator doors opened. After stepping in, Millie looked at Winston standing outside and realized she couldn't cross the boundary anymore. Their relationship could only end here. "Mr. Greer, are you coming?" she asked with a polite smile, as if she were speaking to a stranger.In fact, Winston's dinner wasn't over yet. He glanced at his watch. Seeing that it was almost time, he believed Eli could handle the rest.But when Millie saw him checking the time, she assumed he wasn't coming. Hence, she pressed the button to close the door.Just as they were about to

Chapter 166

Joanna knew very well that Winston preferred docile women. He would never be interested in someone who was strong-willed. Winston pressed his lips together and said, "Let's go to your place."His response made Joanna's eyes light up with excitement. With a radiant smile, she happily hooked her arm over his as they walked out together.…Millie sat in the passenger seat and stared at the black Ferrari as it drove off into the distance. Her heart was heavy with indescribable sorrow. Winston was going to Joanna's house for dinner and to meet her family. Millie couldn't help but think back to when she and him had just gotten married. She had wanted to take him home, too. She longed to tell Terrence she had made the right choice and ease his worries.However, Winston kept postponing it. Even now, he had met Terrence only a handful of times. It was glaringly obvious whether he loved Millie or not. Millie retrieved her phone and looked at Winston's name on her blocked list. Then,

Coincidentally, the person turned and saw Millie as well. Both of their faces lit up with recognition. At that moment, Millie could tell he was headed her way."Millie, what a surprise to find you here! Are you alone?" Jake cheerfully asked as he scanned the surroundings. Millie pursed her lips, appearing somewhat helpless. She couldn't believe she would bump into an acquaintance at a club. Yerwick was truly a small city. "I'm here with Rachel," Millie said, pointing toward her friend sitting at a booth.Jake looked over to the booth. There, Rachel was engrossed in her phone. Despite the crowded club, her delicate figure was enough to catch anyone's eye. Rachel possessed a charisma that others couldn't mimic.Jake raised an eyebrow as he said casually, "Well, I'm here alone. Winston didn't come."Millie hadn't expected him to say that out of the blue. "I know he isn't here. He went to Lowell Manor," she replied indifferently.Though the clamor of the club almost drowned out

"We're about to divorce, and I'm ready to move forward. But why does it still hurt so much?" Millie asked with a frown, trying to seek answers from Rachel.Would Rachel understand the shockwave that swept through her when she witnessed Joanna hugging and acting coyly with Winston? "Mills, you just need time," Rachel comforted her. Millie loved Winston so much and would give up everything for him. This kind of affection wasn't something that would fade away overnight."But Rach…" Millie's tears streamed down her cheeks uncontrollably as she said aggrievedly, "He never chose me."When Joanna and I fell, he protected her. He said he'd send me home, but he immediately left me alone when she appeared. Whenever Joanna is hurt, he'll blame me."And yet, why couldn't she let go? Millie was devastated and continued to pour out her pain like a child to Rachel. "It hurts so bad." Falling in love with Winston had been incredibly painful. If Millie could turn back time, she genuinely

Millie frowned, her delicate features contorting in distress. "Millie, you've had too much to drink," the man remarked. His voice was clear, yet it carried a hint of nonchalance.Millie was in a daze. She looked up and attempted to discern the man's face. But her smudged makeup, fallen lashes, and the dim lighting made it impossible to see clearly.Everything was blurry. Just like his feelings for her, they had never been clear.A mix of emotions crossed Winston's face as he looked at the dark circles under Millie's eyes. How had she ended up in such a state?"Let me take you home," Winston said. He then grabbed her wrist and intended to lead her out of the dance floor. But Millie pushed his hand away, shaking her head. "No! I'm not done yet!""You've had too much to drink!" Winston chided with a scowl. At last, his voice carried a hint of emotion."I haven't! I'm perfectly sober!" Millie bellowed.Upon hearing those words, Winston's expression turned cold. He watched as Mil

Chapter 170

Winston had never shown Millie any respect. So, why was he acting like some model husband now? As for Jake, Rachel thought he was like a sheep in wolf's clothing. Neither of them were decent men!"Piss off!" Rachel shoved Jake aside, her temper flaring.Jake was momentarily stunned. "Ms. Shaw, you don't act like this online."The legendary Rachel Shaw was beautiful and kind. But she didn't seem like a good-natured person now. In fact, she was like a ticking time bomb."You said it yourself. That's my online persona!" Rachel bluntly retorted. Jake was rendered speechless. On second thought, he thought she made sense. Celebrities were different on and off stage. "Ms. Shaw, where do you live? I'll give you a ride home," Jake offered with a mischievous grin.Rachel was irritated and snapped, "I'm perfectly capable of going home on my own. Do I really need you to take me there?""I have to obey Winston's orders. Besides, you're a friend of his wife. I need to make sure you get h
