Chapter 31

For a moment, Winston looked as though he was about to explain. Outside, Simon asked, "Mills, have you found your phone?" Winston felt a finger hook on his. He looked down to see Joanna staring at him, confusion in her eyes. What was he doing? Why did he let her go upon seeing Millie walk in?"I've found it. Let's go," Millie said and followed him out. Joanna could tell that Winston's mind was somewhere else. She couldn't be bothered to play golf anymore. "Let's go." Joanna got up and walked out, dissatisfaction written across her face. Winston noticed her foul mood and followed her. "Jo," he called her name softly. Joanna pushed him away angrily, frustration visible in her eyes. Their perfect alone time was entirely destroyed. Ever since he met Millie, his eyes would always fall on her. The second Millie walked in, he let her go. Actions that happened unintentionally were usually reflections of one's subconscious. Although Joanna loved Winston and was willing to m

Seeing as he had no idea, Jake took his phone out immediately. He'd taken a screenshot upon seeing the headlines. Thus, he read it out for Winston, "Simon Brings Dad to Visit Caldwells. Millie Caldwell and Winston Greer Divorce Speculation!" Winston frowned, and his gaze fell on Jake's face. He coughed softly and continued reading the next headline, "Harrisons Visit Caldwells. Millie and Simon to Tie the Knot Soon!" Jake felt guilty upon reading it. The media was too daring in their write-ups. They'd only gotten a picture. Everything else was a product of their imagination. How could it be that their wedding was approaching? He took a peak at Winston. The lights had been dim enough in the room. With the air of iciness around him, Jake couldn't even look at him. After hearing the headlines, his mood soured even further. "The third headline…" Jake coughed and touched his nose. He glanced at Winston, seemingly asking for permission to continue. Winston gritted his teeth an

Upon seeing him again, she would greet him with a smile and call him affectionately. "Win," she would say. When he thought about it, his heart stuttered, as though a million ants were marching across it. It made him restless. Jake rubbed his chin and joked, "I wonder whether Ms. Caldwell and Simon will invite me to their engagement party.""I didn't even get to go to your wedding when you guys were married! Millie is so pitiful. Not only did you not acknowledge her as your wife, you didn't even hold a banquet in celebration." Winston felt a mess of emotions. Jake was nagging at him, making him extremely annoyed. Thus, he took his coat and walked out. Jake only reacted after a moment. "Win, where are you going?" he shouted. Winston didn't reply to his question. When Winston left the bar, Eli was dealing with the news of Millie online. Eli looked back and asked Winston, "Mr. Greer, how should I handle the news of Ms. Caldwell and Mr. Harrison?" Winston pulled at his ti

"Thank you so much for today. There was a small hiccup in the middle, so I apologize for any inconvenience!" Millie apologized furiously in front of the Caldwell Villa. Simon reclined on his car and raised a brow casually. He said, "As long as you're happy, none of it matters." Millie smiled, her eyes curving upward. "Thank you!" Simon said, "No problem. Don't let your mood be affected by some unimportant people." She nodded and agreed. "Alright. See you around, Simon." Simon hummed and left in his car. Millie remained standing by the door until Simon's car faded from sight. Only then did she shake her arms out and decide to return home. It was rare to see such a chivalrous and elegant man. It was a shame that she was too horrible. She wasn't good enough for him. Just as Millie was about to go home, a familiar voice rang out behind her, "Millie." His voice was hoarse, but it seemed to carry a heady warmth that burnt a hole in her heart. Milile turned immediately

What was he doing, going on a drunk rampage? Millie pursed her lips and looked at him darkly, "This is my personal life. I have the right not to answer, don't I?" She was about to push him away. However, he pressed her arm onto the wall, preventing her from escaping. "Winston, if you continue doing this, I'm going to call the police!" Millie frowned, her tone firm. "Alright, you can call the police." He looked down at her. Something seemed to burn in his eyes. He hadn't done anything to Millie, not to mention they were still married. He wanted to see how the police would handle this. Millie looked into his eyes. She felt extremely sad. She knew he didn't love her. His continued questioning was only because she was canoodling with other men despite their divorce not being finalized. This fact overstepped his limits and trampled on his manly ego. Millie sniffed. She glanced at Winston with a smile. She said calmly, "Right, I've fallen for Simon." Winston stiffened.

When Millie turned to look, Winston was lying on the floor. His hand was holding his stomach, and his face was pale. He looked extremely unwell. Milie's heart seized. She walked over and kneeled beside him, her face etched with concern. "Winston!" she shouted.However, when she thought of how she and Winston were basically unrelated, she retracted the hand she'd extended. With Eli present, he wouldn't let anything happen to Winston. Millie looked down and shoved down her concern. She got up to leave. Eli shouted hurriedly, "Mrs. Greer!" Milli said tonelessly, "Eli, he must've drank too much wine, which triggered his gastric problems. Send him to the hospital and inform Joanna about his situation." Eli looked at Millie, slightly surprised that those words came from her mouth. In the past, whenever something happened to Winston, Millie would always be the first to appear by his side. As she was about to leave, the man's icy fingers held onto hers. "Mills," he murmure

Their car stopped in front of the door to the emergency ward. Millie helped Winston onto the bed and turned to leave. However, he held onto her fingers with no signs of letting go. She frowned and tried to pry his fingers open, only to realize that he was gripping her tightly. Millie could only sigh and resign herself to accompany him. "Doctor, how is he?" she asked the doctor on duty.The doctor gave a short explanation, "He's alright. He just needs to finish the drip. He'll be fine as long as his stomach isn't further stimulated." As she looked at the man on the bed, disdain flashed across her eyes. She patted Winston's arm and complained softly, "You've never been able to take care of yourself when we were in high school. You're already in your 20s, yet you still act the same. You keep making other people worry about you!" However, Millie sighed when she saw Winston's pale face. Her eyes were filled with concern. Millie reclined by his bed. She crossed her arms and st

Winston opened his eyes and swallowed, breathing heavily. He said, "I…" "Win…" Joanna's voice rang out by the door. Millie pushed Winston away on reflex. She stood up straight and stared at the door. Joanna bit her lip while holding a meal container. She glared at Millie, animosity flashing across her eyes. She took two steps back and said tonelessly, "Don't misunderstand, Joanna. Winston thought that I was you." Take a guess whether she believed Millie's words. Joanna looked at Winston lying on the bed and smiled. "Winston, have I come at a bad time?" she asked. Millie didn't want to trouble herself, so she lied, "His gastric problems flared up. I ran into him coincidentally and brought him over." Joanna stared at them in frustration. She knew Millie was lying to her. She came over without anyone telling her to do so. Wouldn't Millie know why she came? She had someone keeping an eye on Winston at all times! The first person Winston sought out after getting drunk

"Let me take a look at how Snowdrop is doing on the black market?" Millie said. How much had the prices inflated?Marvin hummed and followed her into the information room. The gigantic screen in the room flickered, displaying the discussions of Snowdrop on the black market. There were more than two million threads about Snowdrop with more than two billion reads. This wasn't the main issue. The problem was that the price was also snowballing! The price list in the upper right corner displayed the price of a Snowdrop to be ten billion dollars! Marvin said, "Up till now, no one has gotten Snowdrop." Millie crossed her arms and frowned. "Boss, is the Snowdrop really not with you?" Marvin looked at Millie. Millie refused to reveal the truth. He was unsure of what was going on. She looked at Marvin and raised an eyebrow. "I saw Joanna just now. She said the Snowdrop is with her," she explained. "That's hilarious. No one knows where it is. She got a fake one, didn't she?

Chapter 40

Millie took the Snowdrop to the hall. The robot came over and scanned it before exclaiming, "Wow, it's the Snowdrop that the black market has been looking for!" Millie clapped her hands and crossed her arms. The robot asked, "M, where did you get the Snowdrop?" Marvin smiled and replied, "From the rubbish heap waiting for destruction. " The robot seemed stunned. Marvin stared as a bunch of stars appeared on its screen, along with an electrocardiogram. Had it shut down? This was the first time he'd seen a robot shut down in his many years in M Base. Was it okay? The robot restarted itself. A pair of blinking doe eyes appeared on the screen as it said, "I fainted and woke up again! So the Snowdrop is with M!" Marvin didn't know whether to cry or laugh. They'd made a robot shut down with their antics. Marvin asked, "Boss, how are you going to handle it?" Millie looked at him and grinned. Marvin narrowed his eyes. He didn't understand. Was she going to sell it?
