"Millie, we need to have a serious talk. This seems like a good time, don't you think?" He slid a full wine glass toward her, his expression serious.Millie smiled, wondering if he was trying to get her drunk. "Mr. Greer, I don't drink with sick people. If you die today, I won't know how to explain it."She was reminding Winston of his stomach issues. Though her words were harsh, he sensed she didn't want to drink with him because she was worried about his illness."Don't worry. If you die, no one will blame you." Winston downed the glass in one gulp.Millie was quiet and avoided eye contact. Winston poured himself a glass of wine and asked the waiter for more. Eventually, Millie couldn't resist and joined him for a drink.She watched the brightly lit dance floor. The soft music allowed conversations to flow. Everyone enjoyed themselves while dancing closely, igniting an atmosphere rich with intimacy and excitement. As Millie enjoyed the moment, Winston said, "Millie, I need to

"I promise I'm telling the truth. I wouldn't lie to you. If I ever did, I'd definitely die miserably," said Winston. Millie turned her head and looked away, fiddling with her glass. She didn't believe Winston. She was past the stage in life where she was swayed into marriage by words."I did respond, but perhaps you weren't aware." Winston's affection was subtler than Millie's, which often led it to be overlooked."Stop making excuses. When you agreed to marry me, didn't you think you had to marry someone, so it didn't matter who? Winston, you can't hide your lies anymore."Millie had another glass of strong wine. After six or seven glasses, her throat burned, but she enjoyed it. Getting drunk was rare, and it made her feel carefree."I just didn't realize it until later." Winston lowered his head. It dawned on him that he had fallen in love with Millie quite a while ago.Men fall in love later than women, and that was true for Winston and Millie, despite him being two years old

Winston's voice was hoarse as the liquor burned his throat. "Millie, we just missed each other. My mistake has cost us so many years. Don't let it happen again."Life is filled with countless intersections. Luckily, they were still traveling the same path. Yet, at the next crossroads, he realized that while he might still be present, Millie would not wait for him. From that moment onward, their journeys would diverge, taking them further apart until they would never meet again.Millie shook her head, looking unhappy and lost in thought.Winston positioned himself in front of Millie, holding her wrist to prevent her from leaving. He said sincerely, "Don't miss it again. Forgive me, Millie. We can build a wonderful life together. Millie, I promise to make you happy."However, Millie found it difficult to accept his sincerity. If he had expressed it during their three years of marriage, she might have been filled with extreme joy. However, that was no longer an option. Her heart h

It was a coincidence that they met at the bar. When Millie returned to her seat, Winston had finished all the wine. He had drunk quite a bit.Millie wanted to leave, putting her jacket on, but Winston grabbed her arm. The bar was dimly lit. She stood next to him while he sat. One was frowning, and the other smiled wryly."Am I just a stranger to you? I'm not even a friend? Millie, thanks for showing me how ruthless women can be," Winston said, looking up at Millie.Millie laughed, questioning if she was really ruthless. She felt compelled to tell Winston that his actions back then were even more ruthless."You never respected me when you were with Joanna. I still remember the moment you held her hand in front of so many people and declared that I meant nothing to you. You said you'd go to her if you had problems."She continued, "Have you ever reflected on how ruthless you were? Did you ever think about showing me any respect?"Millie could spend three days and nights discussing

The waiter was stunned, wondering why Millie returned after just leaving.Millie assisted Winston in exiting the bar just as a sharp gust of cold wind swept through, causing both of them to shiver simultaneously. Millie frowned and adjusted Winston's coat. The wind felt bone-chilling. Without hesitation, she called a cab and got Winston inside.She entered the cab immediately after him and said softly, "Redwood Residence. Thank you."The driver curiously glanced at Millie. Both she and Winston had been drinking and couldn't drive, so they needed a cab. Although they rarely used cabs, mentioning Redwood Residence always drew extra attention.Winston leaned back and looked at Millie. The car was going slowly. Noticing his gaze, Millie lowered the window to let in some fresh air to make him feel more comfortable.Winston drank a lot alone, especially after Millie's friends came over. His eyes darkened as he reached out to touch Millie, but he hesitated. He turned to look out the w

Millie pulled Winston to his villa and asked, "What's the password?""Your birthday," he replied casually.Millie gazed at him, feeling confused. She asked, "My birthday?""If not, Joanna's birthday?" He looked up, his eyes bloodshot and reeking of alcohol.Millie averted her gaze, lost in thought. When she and Winston were together, the password was always his birthday, 0982. Once, she asked him when her birthday was, and he answered quickly. The joy that filled her was indescribable.The door unlocked, and hot air rushed out. In the living room, loneliness and coldness awaited. Winston now lived alone in this big house, just like Millie had before. It was ironic. They never seemed able to live together.Millie tossed him onto the couch.He scratched his head and rubbed his forehead, trying to sober up. Yet, the harder he tried to clear his mind, the more muddled his thoughts became. Millie dampened the towel and threw it at Winston. "Wipe your face and pull yourself together

"It's late, and you've been drinking. It's not safe for you to go home alone." Winston got up, leaning on the back of the couch for support. He was clearly very drunk, struggling to stand steadily.Millie watched him and straightened her sleeves, saying, "Rest well. Don't worry about me.""Do you really have to go? You've lived here before. This place could always be yours…" Winston's voice grew increasingly profound.Millie quietly put on her jacket, indicating it was time to leave. She corrected him, saying, "This place has never belonged to me."She once felt like someone who had been forgotten, but now she felt like an outsider. This place had never truly been hers.Winston didn't believe it and stopped her. "Why are you so stubborn?"Millie glared at him in silence. She wasn't being stubborn. She was just recognizing the facts and knowing her position."This place was yours once, and it is still yours now. What do you mean that it never belonged to you?" Winston was baffled

It felt as though Winston had never truly known Millie at all.Millie bowed her head and cried, refusing to speak."Tell me. How can you get over it?" Winston gripped Millie's wrist and pushed her against the wall. He was determined to get an answer.He did everything he could do. His apology was meaningless. He offered to pick her up from work, but she declined. He gave her flowers, but she threw them away without a glance. Despite his attempts to reach out, she only distanced herself further. Ultimately, he learned a hard truth. When she was determined to distance herself from him, no amount of effort would change that."Millie, stop putting yourself through this. I know you love me." He took a step closer, cradling her face in his hands.She still loved him, and he was fully aware of it. Her disdain was merely an act. After seven years of loving him, she couldn't simply walk away.Winston frowned as he swallowed hard, his eyes brimming with tears. He had never cried in front

Millie was surprised by Winston's words, as three months were not a short time at all. She smiled wryly. "And how do you convince me you'll let go after three months?"Was that even feasible for Winston, a man who had just walked back on his words from yesterday? Millie had no trust in him whatsoever."Millie, I hope I'm not that untrustworthy in your eyes," he said indignantly through gritted teeth.She said nothing. Lowering his head, he said calmly, "My gastric is acting up. I'm not going to talk anymore."He had said and done whatever he could. The ball was now in Millie's court.Winston turned and made his way to the dining hall. The pasta had gone cold, which was rather fitting after he lamented about how he never got the chance to enjoy her cooking.He took his seat and ran his fork through the pasta. Millie watched him with a conflicted expression as she mused over his suggestion of the three-month agreement.Winston looked up with reddened eyes that were filled with pai

Winston didn't argue further. He was glad enough to have her stay over the night. At least, this was proof she wasn't entirely repulsed by him.Sitting across from Winston, who was eating the pasta, Millie texted Terrence to tell him she was safe and that she wouldn't come home for the night. While she was on her phone, she checked the news related to the lab.Winston ate at a snail's pace as he cherished each moment at the dining table with Millie. It could be the effects of the medicine or simply the hot pasta, but he felt much relieved from the gastric pain.Millie so happened to come across a friend's Instagram story on the app. The friend wrote, "The big boss might be on leave, but the assistant who took over was even worse than him!"The said friend was employed at the Greer Group. She asked Winston, "Have you stopped working?"He grunted. "Yeah. I'm taking a break. I'll be back after New Year's."She arched an eyebrow in amusement, finally understanding the length of his p
