Chapter 471

Millie lifted her head and stared at Terrence's back. A father's love was often silent and unspoken. It was said that mountains were too great to overcome and some people were beyond reach. Yet, in her life, Terrence was both the mountain she could scale and the person she could catch up to. That was because he would stoop to lift Millie over hurdles and unconditionally keep pace with her. Despite that, he would eventually fall behind, unable to keep up with his beloved daughter. Julia frowned when she heard what Terrence said. It was obvious he hadn't talked to her about it."If being abroad gives you a sense of freedom, then by all means, do it. It's better than you ending up in the hospital all the time here."As Terrence spoke, he turned and fixed his intense gaze on Millie, conveying his seriousness. However, her heart ached with a profound sense of remorse. Over the years, she had been her father's source of sorrow. She watched helplessly as he grew older, while she ret

Millie glanced at the nurse outside the door and frowned. Was this typical of the Stringers? Maybe it was. Why else would Sean have been abroad for so many years?Millie approached the bedside and tucked the blanket around Sean. He was still on an IV drip, and his heart rate appeared stable. She thought about checking the wound on his stomach. However, with no one else around, she felt lifting his blanket and shirt was inappropriate.After thinking it over, Millie dismissed the idea. Instead, she sent a text to Marvin. Millie: "Please bring some anti-inflammatory cream when you come to the hospital."Marvin: "Okay."Millie pouted at Marvin's reply and asked, "You rascal, why are you so cold to me?"But Marvin didn't respond. Displeased, Millie sent another message, "So now you're ignoring me, huh?"She was well aware that Marvin was upset. Suddenly, Sean coughed, causing Millie to look up and see him staring at her."You're awake!" Millie immediately placed the back of her

Seeing the shock on Sean's face, Millie couldn't help but chuckle. She picked up an apple from the bedside table, grabbed a fruit knife, and asked, "Why are you so surprised?"Was it really so hard to believe that she was the one who saved Winston? Or was Sean having difficulty accepting that she could do something so remarkable?Sean gulped, staring intently at Milie. The astonishment in his eyes slowly transformed into something more complex and serious."Millie…"With a hum of acknowledgment, Millie gazed up at Sean. Her calm tone reflected a peace that came from years of living.Sean clenched his jaw, and Millie offered him a small slice of apple. "Do you know why Winston is set on marrying Joanna?" Sean's voice was steady but laced with a hint of helplessness. Millie looked at him with a hint of amusement. She then cut herself a small slice of apple and replied, "What other reason could there be? If a man insists on marrying a woman, it has to be because he loves her.""

And now, the mere sight of Joanna made Sean feel sick. The audacity she had to take credit for Millie's heroic act! Did she really think she could get away with it forever?Sean couldn't help but think Millie was a fool. Why hadn't she told Winston that she was the one who saved him?"Mills, would you mind stepping out for a bit? I need to discuss something with Mr. Stringer," Joanna said with a gentle smile. Millie shrugged. She wasn't keen on staying where Joanna was anyway. "In that case, I'll—" Millie was just about to leave when Sean's icy voice cut in. "If you have something to say, just spit it out. Why should my friend leave? "Millie, this is my ward. Stay as long as you want. Unless, of course, she's planning to say something she doesn't want anyone else to know about."Sean's words were sharp and direct. Joanna was somewhat bewildered. Where did all this fury come from? Millie, on the other hand, was even more astonished. She could hardly believe it. After all

"I'm perfectly aware of Win's feelings for me. My relationship with him is none of your business!"As Joanna spoke, she moved closer and carefully tucked the blanket around Sean. Her gaze was cold and threatening as she added, "Sean, just keep to yourself and don't interfere with my affairs. If you insist on meddling, then let's see what happens."With that, Joanna retracted her hand and shot Sean an intense look before striding out of the room.As Sean stared at her retreating figure, his fists clenched tightly. How dare she threaten him? Did she even have the right?A cold smirk spread across his face, his gaze filled with menace. If Joanna wanted to confront him, he'd be more than ready to face it. …The moment Joanna emerged from the ward, she glanced down the empty corridor and tried to hide her shaking hands. Now that Sean knew the truth, what was she supposed to do? He didn't seem like the type to be easily threatened. Was her secret about to be exposed? Joanna admitt

Yet, Joanna didn't appear in any of those videos."Eli, how's Win? Has he come around yet?" Joanna asked with concern.Eli shook his head. "Not yet."Then, he glanced toward Sean's ward, puzzled as to why Joanna had come out from there."As Win's assistant, you should take good care of him." Joanna's tone was laced with reproach.Eli gritted his teeth, unable to tolerate Joanna any longer. "And how did Mr. Greer end up in the sea? Wasn't it because of you, Ms. Lowell?" he snapped, almost spitting her name. Joanna's lips parted slightly as she noticed a change in Eli's tone. He usually spoke with a calm demeanor. Eli continued coldly, "Ms. Lowell, the woman who tried to push you off the cruise ship was hired by you." It wasn't a question. It was an accusation. Joanna was at a loss for how to defend herself. So, she retorted, "Yes, I hired her. What's the big deal?""Why would you do that? What was the purpose?" Eli asked with a frown. Her actions would only make Winston di

The hospital was unusually quiet that night. After scrolling through her phone for a while, Millie grew restless. To calm herself, she performed acupuncture on herself, using the technique to regain her energy.At 10:00 pm, Millie wandered through the corridor alone. Right then, she overheard the nurses gossiping at the nurses' station. "Who do you think is better looking, Mr. Greer or Mr. Stringer?" one of them asked.Another exclaimed, "Mr. Greer, of course! He's definitely the most attractive one!""But it seems like he's not great at handling relationships. He's always caught between Ms. Caldwell and Ms. Lowell.""Well, you know how men are. He's on top of his career, so he's clueless when it comes to love. If he had it all figured out, that wouldn't be fair, would it?""Come on, don't make excuses for men. A scumbag is a scumbag, no matter what!"Millie raised an eyebrow and chuckled at the last comment. She was glad to see that women were more clear-headed now. Indeed

It was a cruel twist of fate. Joanna had ruined the lives of everyone involved. "Who told you that?" Millie asked.Eli pursed his lips and answered, "Sonny Alpers. The man who kidnapped Mr. Greer."Millie frowned in response. Sonny? The name seemed to ring a bell."You might find the name familiar. He's the one I've visited a few times before," Eli explained.Millie suddenly remembered. The person Yoel had swiftly escorted out from the emergency department was Sonny. And the last time Eli visited a patient at the hospital, it was also Sonny! It turned out she had crossed paths with the kidnapper countless times without realizing it."So, Ms. Caldwell, you were the one who saved Mr. Greer, weren't you?" Eli inquired. Millie, now puzzled, countered, "Who else could it have been?""Why haven't you mentioned it at all over the past three years?"Millie calmly replied, "I thought he knew."Eli's smile was tinged with resignation. How could Winston have known if she hadn't told

Chapter 479

It was 3:00 pm, and the Caldwell Villa was filled with enticing aromas. The dining table was filled with a spread of delicious dishes.Both Layla and Arthur watched as Millie cooked diligently in the kitchen. Arthur then asked Terrence, "What's going on with Millie?"He couldn't figure out why Millie had suddenly put together a grand spread for the family."Millie… Well, she'll explain herself shortly. I just hope you're both prepared for what she's about to say," Terrence answered. He was already aware of Millie's plans.After hearing Terrence's reply, Layla felt unsettled. "What is she up to now? First, she quit the job I arranged for her, and now, she's been wandering around, even hurting herself. Why can't she—"But before Layla could voice her frustration further, she fell silent as Millie appeared with the dishes. She stared at her granddaughter.Millie clapped her hands and announced with a grin, "Alright, now that the last dish is served, we're ready to eat!"She had pre

Now that Millie was interested in taking over the company, Terrence was thrilled. Meanwhile, Julia firmly believed that one day, her daughter would follow in her footsteps and become a designer."So, when are you leaving?" Layla asked.Millie glanced at the time and replied, "My flight is at eight tonight, and I'll head to the airport at 5:00 pm.""That soon?" Layla was taken aback. Millie nodded. "I want to get settled in for a few days before classes begin and meet with the professors. Since I've made up my mind, there's no reason to drag this out."Layla didn't respond. Millie could tell her grandmother's thoughts were somewhere else. Layla was reluctant to let her go regardless of what she chose to study. After all, her family were the ones who loved her most in the world.Right then, Arthur, who had remained quiet so far, let out a sigh. "Just go then."His words drew a scoff from Layla. "Are you going to cover the cost of her studying abroad? That's a lot of money!""Yes
