Terrence never raised his voice at Millie, but today, he was extra harsh on her.Millie's family seemed distressed upon realizing she failed to get divorced."Dad, can I not go? I swear to you guys I'll divorce Winston for sure." Millie reeled in her stubbornness.Terrence didn't answer, which meant it was a definite no."But won't my date mind it if I haven't gotten divorced yet?" Millie pouted."He won't!" Terrence's response came with an unwavering confidence.Millie's lips tugged into a thin line. She wondered if her blind date was as dimwitted as Henry for willingly taking her on a date, even after knowing her husband was Winston. Whoever that man was must've lost his mind."Millie, you know this man, and he admires a lot. You two complement each other well. Can't you do as I say just this once?" Terrence's tone softened slightly.Upon hearing Terrence ask her to comply with this once, Millie realized she had been a poorly behaved child all this while. After all, what Terr

Millie noticed the solemn expression on Winston's face after listening to Joanna's words. Suddenly, a thought came to her.With a smile, Millie walked over to Simon and linked her arm with his. She looked up at Simon with her enchanting eyes and asked, "Mr. Harrison, since Ms. Lowell thinks we'd make a good couple, should we try to go on a date?"Simon narrowed his eyes at Winston and Joanna. Winston looked completely dejected. Suddenly, Simon seemed to understand where Millie was coming from and he went along.He put his arm around Millie's slender waist and pulled her close. "Ms. Caldwell, are you saying you agree to let me date you?" His deep voice sounded as beautiful as a cello.Millie nodded. She looked flirtatious and charming as she fiddled with Simon's tie.A smile spread across Simon's face. He deliberately leaned close to Millie's ear and whispered, "I'm greatly honored."Simon glanced up at Winston, who had become extremely grim. There seemed to be countless blades hi

"Please, let me show my gratitude!" Patrick insisted."Well... if we don't have any other plans, how about going golfing?" Terrence suggested abruptly.Patrick quickly nodded. "Sounds great! Mills, do you play golf?"Millie shook her head. She was talented in many things but golf wasn't one of them. Learning to play golf took patience, and she had none of that, except when she was trying to date Winston.Patrick was delighted to learn that Millie couldn't play golf. "Perfect! Simon's a great golfer! You should let him teach you!"With a nod to Millie, Simon responded, "If you're up for it."Millie saw how happy Terrence was. She didn't want to disappoint him, so she agreed.The biggest golf course in Yerwick City was located on the outskirts of town. Simon drove them there. During the journey, Terrence and Patrick talked fondly about old times and had a nice conversation. Millie sat in the front seat, occasionally snacking and chatting with Simon.There were numerous luxury c

Sensing the tension in the air, Joanna immediately jumped in, "Winston, why do you always argue with Mills when you see her?"Winston looked away. His face was clouded with anger.Joanna forced herself to smile and added, "You two were lovers once. Even if you no longer have feelings for her, Mills is still a woman... Can't you just leave her be?"Millie became irritated hearing Joanna's words. While Joanna seemed to be advising Winston to ease the tension, she was actually mocking Millie. Millie knew exactly if Winston still had feelings for her, and she didn't appreciate Joanna being a busybody.Joanna approached Millie with a friendly tone of voice. "What a coincidence to run into you here, Mills! How about a friendly game of golf? The loser must do a dare. What do you say?"Millie smirked as she realized that Joanna was once again playing the role of mediator.Joanna, who knew Millie was good at almost everything but golf, blinked and feigned ignorance. "Mills, do you have an

Millie missed her shot."Stay calm. Take your time," Simon advised her.Millie nodded and smiled at him.Winston was touched by her smile, but he quickly regained his composure. He realized his attention was on Millie when it should have been on Joanna.Joanna was quick to sink her ball into the hole. Her movements were fast and accurate. It was obvious that she was an experienced golfer.Winston redirected his attention to Joanna and clapped for her. "Great shot, Jo."Joanna blew him a kiss and smirked before saying sweetly, "Love you, Win!"Millie had been concentrating on the game, but Joanna's words managed to get into her eyes. It made her feel sick. In the end, she only managed to get two balls in the hole.Joanna tossed her club away and took a sip of water. She stood tall like a queen as she announced, "You've lost.""I will accept my loss gracefully," Millie replied calmly as she wiped her hands.Winston watched Millie walk away. He couldn't believe she'd listen to J
