"Winston Greer, you're always like this. And this is the reason you messed up your relationship with Millie. Do you understand?" Kennedy took a huge step forward.Kennedy knew Winston too well. Only the mention of Millie would get an emotional response out of him."Do you know what I've always wanted to tell you?" Kennedy marched up and stared into his eyes with a sneer.Winston frowned at Kennedy but didn't respond. He appeared uninterested in what Kennedy had to say, but Kennedy had to let it out, "I saw with my own eyes that your abductor tossed Millie into the sea in exchange for keeping you alive."Winston's head snapped up. What? Did Kennedy know about that incident too?Staring at Kennedy from the corner of his eye, he observed the shock unfolding on Winston's face. He snickered. "Oh, are you surprised to learn about it? Are you curious about my presence at the scene of your abduction?"He fixed a calm gaze on Winston. Winston felt his throat tighten as he grappled for wor

Kennedy gritted his teeth when Winston's car departed.

Winston massaged his temples. Though he understood the logic, he still felt frustrated.He didn't even realize that his car was following closely behind the black sports car ahead. Since it was the early hours of the morning and there were few cars on the road, the two luxury vehicles inevitably drew attention.Millie had planned to rest for a while but spotted a car trailing them in the rearview mirror. Initially, she assumed it was merely another vehicle on the same route, especially since it was dark and she couldn't see the license plate. However, as they made several turns, the car continued to follow them. Millie narrowed her eyes.At a red light, the tail lights of Sean's car illuminated the license plate of the vehicle behind. Millie turned to look and realized it was Winston's car. Why was he following them in the dead of night?Meanwhile, Sean had long noticed it. "I saw Win's media interview today," he remarked. Millie immediately averted her gaze and turned to S

With a hint of surprise, Millie glanced at Sean before breaking into a smile. "I hope things go well for you, too.""Everything will surely go well for me because I have a new goal," Sean answered. Millie was puzzled. A new goal?Sean looked at her profile, and his lips curled into a faint smile. Yes, he had a new goal. His interest in Millie wasn't just a result of her saving him. He was genuinely fascinated by who she was. Though young, Millie wasn't afraid to love and hate deeply, and she moved on with remarkable grace. Didn't that make her intriguing? She had remarkable medical skills but chose to leave them behind to take on Layla's research. Sean couldn't help but think it was admirable. Despite Millie's seemingly frail appearance, there was a profound and mysterious depth to her. Sean's interest in her was genuine and intense.The car pulled up to the entrance of a private kitchen. As Millie and Sean walked in one after another, she asked, "By the way, Sean, you've

Winston went upstairs and opened the bedroom door. A wave of emotions washed over him as he looked at the vacant room. In truth, he had barely set foot in the room since Millie moved out. Instead, he chose to sleep in the one across the hall. The room, once filled with warmth, now felt cold and empty to Winston. When Millie was around, it had always been cozy. Even a bouquet on the coffee table made the space feel like a home. But now, it was as if the room had lost all its color, leaving behind only a dull gray. Winston recalled the first day Millie arrived at the villa. She had been extremely cautious, her face flushed with shyness. She would never have known then that her marriage would turn into something she'd dread to speak of. Winston's fingers gently grazed the pillow on the bed's edge. He hadn't spent many nights with her. More often than not, Millie had slept alone.Her face would light up with joy whenever she saw him enter the room. Yet, he only came to find fault,

Chapter 536

Millie was leaving for the research lab when Julia suddenly grabbed her. With a sandwich in her hand, she looked at her mother in confusion. "What's the matter?""We need to have a word," Julia answered as she led Millie to the couch. Right then, Terrence came in from the garden. He wiped his hands and took a seat across from Millie."Your grandma used to lock herself in the lab all the time. We don't want you doing the same.""We're telling you this because work is endless. You need to find a balance! You should set regular work hours for yourself."Terrence and Julia had learned that Millie only returned home at 4:00 am. Now, just after 9:00 am, she was heading out to work again. How could her body handle that?Millie understood that her parents were concerned about her health, so she obediently nodded and said, "Dad, Mom, thanks for supporting my career. I'll set my hours from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm, 12 hours a day. Is that okay?"Julia and Terrence exchanged a glance before sha

The atmosphere in the car felt off. Millie looked out of the window in silence, while Winston drove slowly. Millie glanced at him with a touch of resignation and remarked, "At this rate, I'm going to be late."Winston looked up, hummed in acknowledgment, and sped up just a little. She crossed her arms and shot him a disgruntled look. "Is there something you want to talk about?"He nodded. "Yes."With a frown, she waited for him to continue. If he had something to say, he should just come out with it."I…" Winston stuttered, at a loss for words. She had never seen him so flustered before. It was an indescribable feeling. Perhaps this was what it was like to see a once-great figure fall from grace. However, deep down, Millie didn't wish for his downfall. She had always respected him. So, even though they were already divorced and might eventually become strangers, she still hoped he would remain true to himself."There's nothing left to say. After three years of ups and down

Seeing that the research lab was just up ahead, Millie answered the call as she unfastened her seatbelt. "Got it. Yes, I saw the invitation last night. I'll be there," Millie said into the phone."Okay."With that, she hung up. Julia had called to check if she had seen the invitation to the jewelry exhibition that morning.Millie then turned to Winston and said, "The research lab is right there. No need to drive me further. I'll walk from here."Just as she was about to open the car door to step out, Winston grabbed her wrist. Millie glanced back, feeling the heat radiating from his palm. It was as if it could burn her. It was a warmth she had never experienced from him before. She looked up at Winston. Unfortunately, the comfort arrived too late to make a difference.Millie removed his hand and said, "Mr. Greer, please don't cross the line."With that, she opened the door and stepped out. But Winston was right behind her. "Millie, I might have to act selfishly one last t

"Jo, you're not a kid anymore. You and him are nothing to each other now. It's unrealistic to expect him to visit you just because you're sick. Do you understand?" Logan asked sharply, trying to bring her back to her senses. Upon hearing those words, Joanna's eyes welled up with tears. She couldn't believe that one cruise party had ruined everything she had worked for. How could she come to terms with such a devastating turn of events?Winston was divorced, and everything seemed to be falling into place perfectly. Yet… Joanna closed her eyes as tears streamed down her face. She was heartbroken, gripped by intense sorrow. However, there was no way she could salvage the situation. "Logan, please help me…" Joanna pleaded softly, her voice thick with emotion. Logan remained silent. How could he possibly help? Joanna's actions were outrageous. He had only learned that she had claimed Millie's heroic act as her own after meeting Winston. It was a deception, and of all people, she

Chapter 540

Winston leaned against his car, smoking a cigarette. Right then, he lifted his head, and their eyes met. November's cold was biting, and the wind made the bare branches quiver. When the breeze swept through, Millie's hair fluttered against her face.Winston blew out a smoke ring and straightened his body before stubbing his cigarette in the trash. With a frown, Millie pulled her coat tighter around her. It was clear that she had no intention of acknowledging him. After that, Winston walked toward her, the faint scent of tobacco lingering in the air around him. Since he wasn't a heavy smoker, the smell wasn't overpowering. Yet, Millie still disliked it."Done with work?" he asked patiently. Millie hummed in response. She glanced at Winston and said, "What a coincidence, Mr. Greer. I'm just about to head home."She knew he had been waiting for her. However, she didn't want anything to do with him, so she tried to brush him off."I was waiting for you, and you know it. Let's g
