All Chapters of She's Out of Your League Now: Chapter 231 - Chapter 240

Millie had just stepped into the Cardiac Surgery Department when she overheard Vanessa gossiping, "Oh, the Lowells are going to be so humiliated after how they showed off their gift of Snowdrop herb only to send a fake!"Another doctor nodded in agreement. "They've shot themselves in the feet."When Vanessa spotted Millie, she waved at her. "Hey, Dr. Caldwell! How are you doing? Are you discharged?"Millie nodded. Eyes widening in disbelief, Vanessa went up to her. "Dr. Caldwell, how did you get your hands on the Snowdrop herb?"Millie gaped. How should she reply to Vanessa? She couldn't tell Vanessa she was the invincible M from the M Base.In the middle of her dilemma, another doctor playfully shoved Vanessa with a grin. "Remember? She came from a medical family. They probably own all sorts of medicinal herbs. The Snowdrop herb is not a big deal for them!""Ooh, was it from Professor Cadmore?" Vanessa laughed along. "After all, you needed a presentable gift for your grandmother

Winston's gaze swept over Millie, his eyes burning with anger. Hadn't he told her that night to stop targeting Joanna? He had thought if they could get along, Millie would leave Joanna alone. But now, it seemed like he had overestimated her decency. Millie ignored Winston's scrutiny and fixed her eyes on Joanna. Deep down, she sarcastically applauded Joanna for being so pretentious. What a show she had put on!"What did I do to you?" Millie was determined to get to the bottom of it. Wasn't she the one who tried to break up the fight and got injured by mistake?Probably because of her harsh tone, Joanna shuddered and sought refuge in Winston's arms. She appeared even more delicate and pitiful now.Winston frowned while gently patting Joanna's back. "Millie, it wasn't Joanna's fault she gave the fake Snowdrop. She was deceived too. I know you gave the genuine one, but there's no need to be so aggressive.""I don't see how I've been aggressive." Millie looked at Winston in confusi

Suddenly, Joanna held Winston's hand. She gazed at his profile, hoping he would tell the reporters that he was indeed filing for divorce with Millie.The reporters caught her small gesture and hurriedly zoomed in. Millie had thought seeing them behave like that would no longer affect her. However, at that moment, she was somewhat furious. Her frustration stemmed from the fact that they were no longer hiding their relationship. This was a press conference, after all, and it was broadcast nationwide. If her parents and grandparents were watching, they would undoubtedly be infuriated."Millie and I are indeed—"Before Winston could finish his sentence, there was a commotion outside the press conference venue. Everyone asked, "Who is it?""Who's here?"The crowd turned to look outside. Selma, exuding a commanding presence, strode into the venue with two rows of bodyguards trailing behind her. She was clad in a black velvet suit, and her demeanor was as serious as ever. She sto

"Ms. Lowell, any comments on Mrs. Greer Senior's recent statement?""Ms. Lowell, can you clarify your relationship with Mr. Greer? Are you two seeing each other in secret?""Ms. Lowell, why did you look so pale when you heard Mrs. Greer Senior intends to adopt you as her granddaughter?"Selma had taken Winston away, leaving poor Joanna alone at the press conference. Numerous reporters surrounded her, and there was no way for her to escape their barrage of questions."Ms. Lowell, is it true that Mr. Greer and Ms. Caldwell are getting a divorce? Is it because of you?""Ms. Lowell, please answer our questions!"As microphones surged toward her, Joanna was overwhelmed by the dark mass. She was on the verge of breaking down. The thought of Selma wanting to adopt her as a granddaughter felt like a cruel irony. Who would want that? All she wished for was to be Winston's wife.Just when Joanna thought she had no way out, the reporters in front of her were abruptly pushed aside. Then,

Millie was having dinner when she suddenly received a call from Selma."Mills, I'll be attending an afternoon tea hosted by an old friend tomorrow. Would you like to come along?" Selma's gentle voice made it hard for Millie to decline. Seeing that she was on the phone, Terrence asked, "Who is it?"Millie glanced at her father before replying, "Grandma, I have something on tomorrow. I might not be able to make it."There was a brief silence on the other end of the line. A few seconds later, Selma let out a sigh. "It's okay then."Millie lowered her gaze and softly suggested, "Grandma, I really have matters to attend to at the hospital. Why don't you give me the address and tell me the time? I'll head over once I'm done. How does that sound?""No, it's okay. It's good that you're keeping yourself busy." With that, Selma hung up.Millie stared at the phone for a while. In the end, she sighed and thought, "Forget it. I should decline. It's about time Grandma needs to accept the f
