Chapter 691

At the Greer Group factory, the media had been waiting for hours, anticipating Winston's arrival. An incident of this scale required his personal presence.Near the ruins, the victims' families wept openly, their cries cutting through the air with raw, unbearable grief.As soon as Winston's car pulled up, a crowd descended on him—grieving family members, security personnel, and reporters.Before stepping out, Eli turned to remind Winston, "Mr. Greer, we need to handle this delicately. Three people have died, so we need to agree to whatever the families request."Winston gave a silent nod, a sense of guilt weighing on him as he glanced at the devastated families.The Greer Group had always prided itself on strict safety measures across its factories, shops, and offices. So, he couldn't understand how an explosion like this could have happened. Everything about the whole situation felt off.The moment the car door opened, a wave of chaotic voices surged toward him from every direct

"Take them to the office," Winston instructed Eli. Eli nodded and began directing the staff to escort the victims' families out. Suddenly, one of the relatives shouted, "I'm not leaving!""We can discuss compensation and the next steps. Please let us know if you have any requests," Eli said.The man erupted in anger. "Is money supposed to fix this? Is that all you think matters? No amount of cash can bring my son back! He was just starting his life after graduating from university!"Winston immediately recognized that this man was the father of the 24-year-old worker who had died.Every camera turned toward the man as his cries filled the air. He wept openly, his grief on full display for everyone to see."What kind of factory do you run? What safety measures do you even have? Winston Greer, how the hell did you make it to the top?"That single accusation dragged Winston into a crisis. Before long, the authorities issued a directive for all Greer Group subsidiaries to shut down

Millie logged into the M Base network and immediately spotted a viral post.User123 had written, "Paying top dollar for explosives. You know what I mean."Millie squinted at the screen. This person was shockingly brazen. Flaunting such a transaction so openly was reckless. To make matters worse, the explosion at the Greer Group factory had happened right after they purchased the explosives. Didn't they worry that people might connect the dots?Millie checked the user's profile and saw their IP address was from Yerwick City. Their arrogance was astounding! It was as if they were daring everyone to link them to the factory explosion.She sighed, deleted the posts, and banned the user. Then, she texted Marvin, "Have you found out who this person is?"Marvin: "Drew is still working on it, but it's tough because they're using a fake identity."Millie was intrigued. It made sense why they were so daring; hiding behind a fake identity had emboldened them.Millie: "Understood."Marvi

When Millie arrived at the hospital, she walked past Winston, who was on the phone. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked utterly exhausted, so much so that he didn't even notice her.He stood at the end of the corridor, the harsh midday sunlight pouring over him. It was so intense it seemed to burn right through him. Winston rubbed his temples, then rested his hand on his stomach. Millie watched him for a moment. She had never seen him look this drained before.With a quiet sigh, Millie turned and headed to the emergency room. Gloria sat on a bench, her hands clenched tightly, while Brian was nowhere in sight."Mrs. Greer," Millie called out.The moment Gloria saw her, tears immediately streamed down her face. "Mills!""What happened to Grandma?" Millie asked."She was already so weak. When she saw all that news about Greer Group this morning, she got worried, and… the stress was just too much for her."Tears continued to stream down Gloria's cheeks, and her trembling voic

Winston's gaze lingered on Millie for a long moment. He knew that, while Terrence was a compassionate man, he wouldn't stand up for him at this point. So, Millie's statement was likely just her own perspective.He felt a deep gratitude toward her and a profound regret for how he had lost and hurt her. Winston wasn't sure how to make amends, so all he could do was spend the rest of his life trying to atone for his mistakes."Thank you," Winston said weakly, barely managing a nod. Millie remained silent and turned her attention back to the emergency room. At that moment, the light above the emergency room door went out. Sebastian soon appeared and reassured them, "Everything's fine. She just had a bit of a scare."Millie looked puzzled. "How could Grandma have a scare without any apparent reason?""That's something you'll need to ask the guardian," Sebastian replied, offering no further explanation.Feeling uneasy, Millie turned to Gloria, who wore a troubled expression. "I di

Without a word, Millie nudged a chair toward Winston, signaling for him to sit. He glanced at her briefly, then took a seat."Copy all the footage with this person in it and send it to this email," Millie instructed the security guard.She scribbled down an address and added, "And try to get me a clear shot of their face.""That might be tough," the security guard told her. Whoever this was, they were good at staying out of sight. None of the footage had a clear view of their face."That's exactly why I came to you." Millie smiled and patted his shoulder. "I know it's not easy, but don't worry, you'll be well compensated once this is done."The security guard gave her a faint smile but said nothing more.Winston leaned back in his chair. He gazed at Millie, a mix of emotions stirring inside him. It was the first time he had truly seen her in this way.He had always thought she was just an ordinary woman who wouldn't survive in the real world. But now, he realized how wrong he

Millie turned to look at Winston. "What?"He fell silent for a moment, then met her gaze and repeated, "I'm asking if you're leaving.""What, can't bear to see me go?" Millie responded lightly.They locked eyes as she spoke. It had been a long time since they had looked at each other this way. Yet, their gazes conveyed different emotions now.In the past, it was Millie who showed reluctance. Now, Winston's eyes revealed the same feeling. Where his gaze once held indifference and amusement, those emotions now appeared in her eyes."If I said I couldn't bear to see you go, would you stay a little longer?"Winston pressed his lips together as he watched the elevator numbers tick down. Before long, they reached the first floor.Millie glanced at him and chuckled. "That's not very convincing."Winston fell silent. He had never been good at begging. In his entire life, he had never had to.When the elevator doors opened, Millie noticed him clutching his stomach. With a sigh, she sai

With that, Winston walked over. Millie's tone was no longer gentle. Instead, it was cold and commanding.He couldn't deny the truth—she had indeed changed. It wasn't just her feelings for him that had faded. Everything had shifted drastically.After examining Winston, the doctor started an IV drip and repeatedly advised him to eat his meals on time.Millie stood by and listened without uttering a word. If Winston had heeded medical advice, he wouldn't have found himself in the hospital so often due to his stomach issues.As she set a glass of warm water on the bedside table, she looked at Winston's pale face and said, "Eli is likely swamped with work, so I didn't call him to keep you company. "I've asked the nurse to monitor your IV drip. I'm going upstairs to check on Grandma. You should be okay on your own, right?"Winston glanced at her, his lips moving as if to speak. He wanted to say he wasn't fine, but he didn't know how Selma was faring.So, he replied, "I want to go wit

Just then, the door to the ward swung open. Millie turned to see Gloria stepping inside."Where's Win?" Gloria asked. "His gastritis flared up. I just took him to the emergency department for an IV drip," Millie replied.Gloria paused for a moment, then let out a sigh. "He's always making people worry about him. Ever since he left you, his life's been a complete mess. Mills, I…"Her gaze lingered on Millie. There were so many things she wanted to say, but when their eyes met, the words seemed to vanish. A heavy silence settled between them, and eventually, all that was left was a deep sigh. Millie looked at Gloria, and a surge of sympathy she couldn't quite describe swept over her.Selma had fallen ill, Winston was wrapped up in his own problems, and Brian was buried in work at the company. That left Gloria to handle everything at home on her own. And she still had her job to worry about.Life was tough for everyone, especially adults. Millie felt for Gloria, so she decided to

Winston frowned, feeling a pang of annoyance. "Again? Which department this time?""It's still the Safety and Compliance Department. I heard they received orders from the higher-ups…" Eli's voice was urgent. "Mr. Greer, could you come back?"Winston glanced up at the IV drip, while Millie looked at him. It was as if she understood what he intended to do. "You haven't finished your IV," she remarked.Winston pressed his lips together. He couldn't wait any longer. "I'll come back to finish it."He then ended the call and began removing the needle. Millie rose, trying to stop him. However, seeing his determined actions, she withdrew her hand. She didn't want to overstep.Noticing her hand retract, Winston cast her a meaningful look. "I'll heed your advice. Once this issue is resolved, I'll make sure to take better care of myself."With that, he grabbed his coat and walked out, leaving Millie behind.She stared at the empty ward and chuckled wryly. Heed her advice? He had never
