Chapter 15
The man cackled as he tried to pull Millie into his arms. â100 million is nothing to me! All I have to do is ask for it!â
Millie narrowed her eyes. What an arrogant thing for him to say.
âWho are you? Why havenât I seen you before?â Millie asked with a smirk.
The man lifted his head up high and declared arrogantly, âIâm Scotty Cobb, the CEO of Cobb Group!â
Millie laughed.
Scotty Cobb? Wasnât he the infamous wastrel from the Cobb family? He was just a foolish, goodâforânothing scion! He was most known for having been scammed out of eight million by a man who pretended to be a woman online!
All in all, Scotty was a brainless man with too much money for his own good!
âWhat are you laughing at?â Scotty snapped as he glared at Millie. If you hook up with me, youâll be getting more than just 100 million. Iâll give you 100 billion!â
Millie tutted. It was a tempting offer.
âIâm not interested in you, Mr. Cobb. Kindly let go, and letâs pretend this never happened,â Millie said with a smile in an attempt to convince Scotty.
She came over today to attend the dinner meeting in Terrenceâs place. If she ended uptausing a scene, she would only be
embarrassing herself in front of Terrenceâs friends. She didnât want to cause any trouble either.
However, Scotty was displeased. He had never failed to get in bed

with any woman he wanted!
âAre you trying to play hard to get with me?â he asked with a sneer.
Millie wanted to roll her eyes. She couldnât believe how self- absorbed he was! Even if she were to play hard to get with someone, it wouldnât be him!
She pushed Scotty away and tried to leave, but he was inebriated, and her disinterest aroused his desire.
Since she refused to sleep with him, he was determined to get her in bed with him tonight!
He grabbed Millie and tried to force himself onto her. âI donât want to play these games with you. Didnât you bump into me on purpose to seduce me? Well, in that case, Iâm going to make you feel real good tonight!â
Scotty shoved Millie against the wall.
Gritting her teeth, she growled, âLet go of me!â
âAn ordinary woman like you should be counting your blessings that Iâm letting you into my bed tonight! Donât fucking try to act like an innocent woman!â
Scottyâs hand started roaming up the hem of Millieâs dress.
Frowning, she quickly pushed his hand away, but as soon as she did that, he started leaning in.
He was over six feet tall and larger than her, so she was having a hard time fending him off. She had no choice but to stomp on his foot using her heel.
However, Scotty didnât seem to feel any pain. He continued to try and force himself on her.
Millieâs dress was too short, so she dared not do anything too physical, lest she ended up flashing herself.

âScotty! Iâm Millie Caldwell, the oldest daughter of the Caldwell family! Are you sure you dare to assault me?â Millie growled. Her only option now was to state her identity in the hope that it would make him stop what he was doing.
âI donât fucking care who you are! Youâre mine tonight!â Scotty roared back. He was too consumed by his lust to pay any attention to who she was. All he knew was that she smelled good, and her skin was so soft to the touch.
The more she tried to resist, the more excited he got!
Millie frowned. All of a sudden, she thought of something. She was just about to take out her hairpin from her hair when a silhouette came dashing toward them.
There was a loud thump, and instantly Scotty fell onto the floor with a piercing howl.
Right after that, someone pulled Millie and shielded her behind him.
When Millie saw who it was, her eyes quivered, and she felt a jolt.
âFucking hell? Whoâs the fucking bastard who hit me?â Scotty screamed.
âUse your fuckings eyes to see who I am!â Winston growled, his icy voice echoing in the hallway, chilling anyone who heard him.
Scotty swayed on his feet as he rubbed his eyes. The moment he saw the person standing in front of him, his mind cleared.
âYouâre Winâ¦â
It was Winston Greer, of all people!
Scotty looked at the woman Winston was protecting, and sure enough, it was Millie!
Cursing to himself, Scotty knew heâd made a huge blunder.

Winston turned his head around to look at Millie. His voice was cold as he asked, âAre you alright?â
Millie looked up and nodded, her breathing still a little ragged.
Winston looked back at Scotty with a murderous gaze. âHow dare you touch my woman?â
Millie, who was adjusting her dress, froze when she heard what Winston said.
She couldnât believe she heard such words coming from him now when all along, he would only say that when he was protecting Joanna.
âI was drunk, Mr. Greer⦠I didnât knowâ¦â Scotty stammered, shaking his head profusely.
âYou think being drunk is a good enough excuse?â Winston shot back with narrowed eyes as he clenched his right fist and flexed his wrist. He was giving off a suffocating air of hostility.
Scottyâs lips parted, but he didnât know how to defend himself.
After all, Winston was incredibly influential in Yerwick. Anyone who crossed him would end up doomed.
Without showing any mercy, Winston punched Scotty in the face. Scotty stumbled to the floor, but Winston wasnât done yet. He crouched down and grabbed Scotty by the collar to start punching him again. He didnât hold back at all as he landed blow after blow, as though he was venting his fury.
As it was, Winston was releasing all his pentâup frustration and irateness by beating Scotty up.
By the time he stood up straight again, his arm was covered in Scottyâs blood, and Scotty had blacked out.

Winson glared at the back of his hand before replying, âTm fine. Is just a scanâ
Millie simply looked at him before walking into the lounge on the side as if he could choose whether or not he wanted to follow her.
Winstonâs heart pounded as he stared after her slender silhouette. Subconsciously, he chose to follow her.
There was no one else in the lounge Winston sat down on the couch while Millie opened a drawer to retrieve a first aid kit.
When she turned back around with the first aid kit in hand, she saw Winston sitting on the couch. The expression on his face seemed a little cold, but his gaze was piercing as he stared at her.
Pursing her lips, she walked over to him and sat down beside him.
She took out the bottle of iodine, and he held his hand out to her.
Glancing at him, Millie couldnât resist laughing.
âWhy are you laughing?â Winston asked, feeling unsettled.
Millieâs fingers felt cool to the touch as she gripped his hand while saying, âI rarely see you this agreeable, Mr. Greer. Youâre usually glaring daggers at me.â
Winston was rendered speechless. It was clear just how poor his attitude toward Millie had been all along
Millie bent down to tend to Winstonâs wound. Her hair scattered, a wisp of it falling across her face while the rest parted to reveal her graceful neck.
Winston was suddenly reminded of the past. Back in high school, he was always getting into fights, and it was Millie who tended to his injuries every time while scolding him. âIf you donât start taking better care of yourself, Winston, I wonât help you with your injuries anymore.â
Despite saying that, whenever he appeared before her with new injuries, she would forget all about what she previously said.
His gaze landed on the wound on her forehead, and he felt a twang
in his heart.
He broke the silence by saying with some difficulty, âI saw the
security footage.â
