"Winston, I'm leaving. Don't bother inviting me in for coffee…" Before Jake could finish his words, the car door slammed shut with a loud bang.In front of Winston's villa, Jake gripped the steering wheel tightly and cursed, "Winston, you're so heartless. No wonder your wife ran away."Winston was speechless. He turned around and stared at Jake.Jake exclaimed, "I'm being courteous to you, yet you truly refuse to invite me to have some coffee? Are you hiding a woman in your house?""Stop talking nonsense," Winston warned angrily. He reached for the door handle, intending to drag Jake out. Sensing Winston's fury, Jake chuckled. He then immediately drove away.Winston frowned, as Jake was too talkative sometimes. As he turned to enter the house, he saw a pitiful woman crouching at the door.She looked up and locked eyes with Winston. Her voice trembled. "Win…" Winston's heart sank the moment he saw her. He opened the door and stepped inside.Joanna followed him in. "I've been ca

Winston silently retrieved his phone and called Eli. Without hesitation, Joanna grasped his hand. "Please, don't.""You have a fever, go to the hospital. If anything happens to you, your family will be worried too." Winston took the phone back and wanted to call Eli again.Joanna asked immediately, "Are you so eager to chase me out?"After a brief silence, he explained, "You're running a fever, Joanna. You have to see a doctor now. Do you understand?""I don't. All I know is that I haven't seen you all day, but it seems like you don't want to see me at all. And now that we finally meet, you're pushing me away!" Joanna cried while crouching.Winston gazed down at Joanna and sighed, clearly feeling helpless."Why are you treating me like this? I only made a small mistake. I almost lost my life for you. Have I ever mentioned feeling aggrieved?" Joanna said, her voice muffled as she covered her face.Winston became indifferent instantly. He was tired of Joanna bringing up the past e

Millie drove Rachel home. When she was about to leave, Rachel asked, "Are you coming to the entertainment industry party tomorrow night?"Millie gazed at Rachel, who suddenly approached. She leaned on the car window, her bangs dancing in the wind. There was a palpable sense of longing in her expression. Rachel truly desired Millie's company for the dinner, clearly uncomfortable at the thought of attending alone. Millie sighed when she saw how pitiful she looked. She couldn't refuse this beautiful woman."Okay, okay, I'll go with you," Millie said with a hint of resignation.Rachel grinned. "See you tomorrow night.""Fine, I'll just steal your spotlight then," Millie teased.However, Rachel remained unfazed. She walked into her house after Millie drove away.On her way back, Millie checked the latest news. To her great relief, no one had leaked the fact that she had attended the car race and engaged in such a cruel act.Millie suddenly felt hungry, so she called Marvin. "Let's

"The upcoming actress is Melanie Gardner, who recently starred in a low-budget online series. With her striking beauty, she effortlessly captivated the hearts of the audience."Millie stood behind a reporter, nibbling on a lollipop. She was listening to the reporter's live broadcast introducing tonight's guests."Rachel Shaw? Rachel hasn't arrived yet," the reporter said, glancing at the comments flooding the live broadcast."Rachel is reaching soon. Don't worry, ladies."Millie glanced at the comments on her phone and couldn't help but notice the overwhelming discussion about Rachel. Without a doubt, she truly had a large number of supporters."Mills, why are you here?" Her arm was suddenly grabbed.Millie turned around, only to find Thomas standing there. After gazing at him from head to toe, she nodded in approval. He looked very charming in his black suit."Why are you wearing this to the entertainment industry's party?" He pointed at her in disapproval.Millie lowered her

The man gazed upwards and caught sight of Millie and Rachel."It's Jake." Millie was surprised.Jake greeted them with a wave and a smile. "Hi."Rachel gave Jake a subtle nod as a greeting. Jake glanced at Rachel, unable to resist studying her momentarily before diverting his gaze."Mr. Webson, do you usually attend this type of party as well?" Millie asked curiously."Oh, I don't usually attend, but I have something to take care of today," Jake explained with a cheerful smile.Millie didn't want to ask further, but he immediately added, "I came here for a celebrity. I need to discuss a business with her."Millie nodded with a smile. "I see. That celebrity must be very lucky. It's amazing to have the opportunity to work with Mr. Webson."Rachel also smiled and said faintly, "All the best."He raised an eyebrow, with a smile growing in his eyes. "I hope so."After that, Jake left to continue working.Millie and Rachel watched as Jake left, crossing their arms. Millie commen

As soon as Millie walked away, she ran into Simon. She greeted excitedly, "Hi, Simon."Simon was surprised. "Mills, you're here too?""Rachel forced me to come here. How about you?" Millie asked."Do you know Rachel?" Simon was shocked.Millie pouted. "You must be joking! Rachel is my best friend, and we've known each other for years. I've seen her rise to a superstar firsthand."Simon chuckled and said, "Then I have a favor to ask."Millie pondered what favor he would like to ask."The endorsement contract with the endorser for our jewelry store has recently expired. We're seeking a new celebrity to represent our brand. "Rachel is a highly suitable candidate. But her busy schedule has made it difficult for our company to secure an appointment with her. I was wondering if you could introduce me to her?""It's a small matter. When Rach is available, I'll ask her to join us for dinner, so you can discuss it with her. But I can't guarantee that it'll work out. I respect Rach's c

Millie greeted Winston with a smile, raising the watermelon she was holding.Winston inwardly groaned, then he continued to exchange pleasantries with the others.Millie set down the watermelon rind, delicately wiping her fingertips. As she looked up, her gaze locked with Joanna's brother, Logan. Something seemed off about this supposed entertainment industry party she was attending. Instead, it felt more like a gathering of Yerwick business elites.After glancing at Millie, Logan picked up the cup beside him and took a sip of coffee. Millie pondered whether to greet Logan. After all, there was an unspoken tension between them. Just as Millie hesitated, Logan said, "I heard Ms. Caldwell and Winston are getting divorced?"Millie couldn't help but look at him. He looked elegant in his black suit, with a smile on his face. One hand in his pocket, the other holding a cup. Logan was a mature and decent man. However, he couldn't hide his happiness when he asked this question. Milli

Madison was frustrated with Rachel's sarcastic response. The two locked eyes, their gazes intense."Rachel, Madison, look over here," a photographer called out suddenly.They immediately stood side by side, hand in hand, beaming at the photographer.Millie was completely speechless. She figured this must be the epitome of an actor's self-cultivation. However, Madison was still a long way from reaching Rachel's level. Rachel's tassel dress radiated an extraordinary shine, and even though Madison revealed more skin, it just wasn't enough to match Rachel's stunning presence. Standing side by side, Madison paled in comparison, unquestionably inferior. Millie couldn't help but think that if she were in Madison's shoes, she would certainly be wise enough to steer clear of Rachel and avoid unnecessary trouble. Rachel's presence was simply too radiant to handle."Rach, do you know that Mr. Webson is currently searching for a new endorser?" Madison asked."No idea." Rachel shook her he

Millie had barely exchanged a few words with Rachel when Jake approached."Ladies, it's too quiet chatting just between the two of you. Why not let me join in?" Jake suggested with a mischievous smile.Millie crossed her arms and gestured toward Madison. "I saw you two were having a good chat."Jake glanced over at Madison and sighed. "Alas, I don't even know her.""She's the only person I know in the industry." Jake suddenly pointed at Rachel.Rachel, who was in the middle of eating, was taken aback by this unexpected encounter. She responded with a warm smile and graciously replied, "It's truly an honor to be remembered by you, Mr. Webson."Jake chuckled and leaned against the bar. He playfully commented, "Your smile seems fake.""There are even more fake ones. Would you like to see them?" Rachel glanced at Jake, her tone unfriendly.Jake had been interacting with various people for many years, and his keen perception allowed him to quickly discern whether someone was treatin

Jake almost believed that Rachel was nice enough to let it go. Then, he looked at Joanna. "No idea." Joanna was dressed beautifully and gracefully tonight. Perhaps it was due to her illness, but she exuded a delicate charm tinged with a touch of vulnerability. She appeared somewhat pitiful and deserving of love.After Joanna entered, she walked straight over to Winston. The people around Winston cleared a path for her. She stood in front of Winston and said with a smile, "Win.""Why are you here?" Winston was surprised and wondered why she had come here instead of resting in the hospital.Joanna smiled. "I'm here to attend the event with you.""You still haven't fully recovered," Winston whispered.Joanna immediately shook her head. "I'm fine."Winston and Millie had finally divorced, and now she could openly attend any event with him. She was determined not to miss any opportunity to showcase her relationship with Winston."Mr. Greer, who is this?" Margaret asked deliberately
