Chapter 821

Millie couldn't help but marvel at the speed of the tabloids; their movements would be captured immediately and made headlines.Frustrated, Millie texted Marvin, "Take down the gossip about me."She didn't mind reading gossip about others, but she refused to have others gossip about her personal life.Five minutes later, Marvin's reply arrived, "I tried, but they can't be deleted."Millie: "Why?"Marvin: "Someone must have paid for the news to be up. Boss, you gotta outbid that person if you want the gossip gone."Millie was speechless. Which loser paid money to keep her news up?Suddenly, she heard a dull thud outside the door. She scrambled up and opened the door to see Winston sitting on the top of the staircase. He held the handguard while propping himself up from the floor. He seemed sickly.Frowning, she asked, "Mr. Greer, are you alright?""Not really," he said in a guttural voice.Millie approached him and crouched. He rested his back against the railing and met her e

Millie couldn't fight the strength of a drunk man. That was how she ended up being circled in his arms.Time ticked past, and before she knew it, she had dozed off in his arms.…Millie woke up the next day to the blinding sunlight and soreness in her body. She rolled in bed and rested her leg on something. Suddenly, she touched something she shouldn't have.Noticing something wrong, she frowned and slowly opened her eyes. What greeted her was a shocking scene.She blurted out, "Fuck."Then, she hurriedly checked for her clothes. Once she confirmed she was fully clothed, she started to wonder—how did she end up in bed with Winston?Winston's eyes fluttered open. Eyebrows knitted, he picked up his phone from the bedside table. It was 10:00 am.He felt something on his waist and looked down to see Millie's leg pressing on it. He touched her inner thigh, causing her to jolt up in shock. She hopped out of bed soon, asking, "Why am I in your bed?"He shook his head; he couldn't r

Millie shrugged off Winston's words with a smile. Then, she went to the bathroom to wash up.Winston didn't further impose himself on Millie, and he left for the first floor.In the guest room, Millie tied her hair into a ponytail and slipped on a white dress. Looking ladylike, she went to the first floor, where she saw Winston fretting in the kitchen.She asked, "Is a sandwich and milk fine for you?""Of course." Winston couldn't have possibly complained. He was just glad to have someone preparing breakfast for him."Someone took photos of us when we got home. I called a friend to take the news down, but it didn't work. Mr. Greer, can you please take the news down?" she suddenly asked.Winston looked up in surprise. He brushed it off. "It's just a headline."She smiled. "But it bothers me that I was seen with my ex-husband instead of a new guy."She didn't mind being reported on if she were caught going to bars and having fun with a new lover. But being seen with Winston was n

Millie wanted the three-month agreement as a buffer between them. Eyes narrowed, she questioned, "Winston, are you threatening me now?""Just laying out the pros and cons of our agreement," Winston said.Millie laughed. He sounded exactly like he was getting ready to take full advantage. Despite her frustration, she unblocked his number."See? Happy now?""Do not unblock me before the three months are up," he warned, but she took it lightly.Soon, he sent her the digital copy of their three-month agreement to Millie. Without any hesitation, he addressed her in the manner of discussing an important contract, "The agreement will take effect after you sign here."Millie browsed through the clauses and found nothing wrong. It was a bet over three months. When the three months were up, Winston would stop pestering her if she refused to accept his feelings.To put it bluntly, it was a tug-o-war of love.

"Oh, don't worry. I dropped by just to visit Winston. Mills, you know he always gets wasted when he's out at business events, and it worries me to think he's living alone. I'm always scared something might happen to him!" Gloria laughed heartily, being in a good mood.Millie nodded and came down the stairs.Gloria sensed that they had used the kitchen, which added to her joy. "Did you make breakfast?"Millie replied, "Yeah. I have to go out later, and I need a quick bite.""Nice. It feels different now that there's a woman in charge of the household. Winston is lucky to enjoy your breakfast!" Gloria shot a look at his son. What a shame to have let go of a perfect wife like Millie!Every time Gloria thought about the divorce, she had the urge to yell at Winston. What a loser! She couldn't fathom what was on his mind. He had all the success in his career, yet his personal life was a mess."Right, Win?" She elbowed him, worried that he wasn't chiming in to praise Millie.However, W

Gloria suddenly asked Winston, "Aren't you looking after the company anymore?"He retorted, "Which one is more important right now—winning back your daughter-in-law or running the company?"Gloria smiled. Winning back Millie was, of course, her top priority. She suggested, "If you need help, get your dad to step in at work. He's free anyway. All he does is watch the news reports of the Lowell family at home."Then, she remarked while helping to clean up the living room, "The Lowells are in such a big mess, aren't they?"Winston stopped her. "Mom.""Yeah?""You don't have to clean up the living room."He preferred a bit of a mess for some liveliness, or the living room would appear lonely if everything was in perfect place.Gloria smiled, wondering if he had stopped her from cleaning because he wanted to preserve traces of Millie."Oh, you rascal! Your belated feelings mean nothing now!" She couldn't help but criticize him.Winston was nearly driven crazy by his mom's nagging.

Winston glanced up with a look of confusion. "What's wrong?""I ran into Mr. Caldwell at a meeting just now. He's bidding on a project, but he is missing some documents. If you show up now, you might be able to help him out."Someone called out to Jake in the background, and he promptly hung up on Winston.Winston frowned. What was going on? Jake didn't even mention what meeting he was at. Just when he was fretting, Jake texted him the coordinates of his location. Jake: "Come to the 13th floor of Nimbus Tower. Mr. Caldwell is bidding for a parcel of land in the Meilleur Group's second phase of development." Jake: "He's missing an annual inspection permit, and his competitor is desperately trying to undermine him. It'll be tough to win this project."Winston laughed. Oh, was this about the land in Meilleur Group's second phase of development?Jake: "You're old friends with the Meilleur CEO Sonny Maynard, aren't you? Just put in a word for Mr. Caldwell, and the problem will be

Sonny quickly reported, "We have Terrence Caldwell from the Caldwell Group and Kennedy Sullivan from the Sullivan Group."Despite having heard of Terrence's participation, Winston feigned a look of surprise. "Oh, are the Caldwells involved too?""Yes. Why the question?" Sonny asked with a smile."I've just had breakfast with Millie Caldwell. What a coincidence to hear that her company is in the bid."Sonny paused. Did Winston just have breakfast with Millie? Their dramatic divorce was public knowledge, and so was the news of Winston getting onto his knees in front of Millie.He thought about the relationship between Winston and the Caldwells, wondering if Winston had dropped a hint. Did Winston want the Caldwells to win or lose the bid?Confused by Winston's intentions, he cautiously asked, "Mr. Greer, how's your relationship with Ms. Caldwell recently?""I'm pursuing her," replied Winston, much to Sonny's shock.Winston explained, "I made some mistakes, and I regretted my acti

Everyone turned to Terrence, including Kennedy, who had predicted the outcome. Kennedy clenched his fist and snapped, "How is that fair?"Sonny shot him a puzzled look. "Mr. Sullivan, do you have any objections?"Since Winston was present, perhaps he could help resolve Kennedy's grievance. Kennedy looked at Winston with a snort. Oh, he wouldn't dare vocalize his dissatisfaction with Winston around. Even if he protested loudly, Winston would still get his way. How unreasonable!Winston pursed his lips and folded his arms on his chest. He scrutinized Kennedy with a malicious glint in his eyes.Terence shot up from his seat and pointed at himself in disbelief. "Did I win the bid?""Indeed, Mr. Caldwell. Your philosophy matches ours. We hope to achieve a win-win situation by partnering with you. Let's give our best, shall we?" Sonny replied earnestly.However, Terrence questioned, "But we—""Mr. Caldwell, we just got news that the Caldwell Group has passed all the requirements for

"The elevator's here." Winston pointed at the arriving elevator, signaling at Kennedy to leave.Kennedy was frustrated. He knew very well he was no match for Winston, yet he insisted on fighting back.Before he left, Winston said coolly, "Kennedy, you're a capable man. The Greer Group might be able to help you if you're willing to put aside your prejudice toward me."Despite Kennedy's competence, business was hard these years. He alone couldn't build an empire of his own.Though Winston had approached him with an offering of peace, he refused to accept it. He stepped into the elevator, adamant not to use Winston's help.Frowning, Winston let out a sigh. Whatever.Suddenly, he heard footsteps from behind. He thought it was Jake, but he turned to find Sonny with Terrence.Terrence looked overjoyed to win the bid. The Lowell Group had historically won these bids; companies like the Caldwell Group never stood a chance.It was at that moment he spotted Winston, whose expression fell
