Chapter 179
Millie chuckled wryly. Only those incapable would want to control someone elseâs fate.
âGo ahead, then,â she said coolly. At that moment, she was unusually clearâheaded and calm.
âAre you threatening me?â Kane glared at Millie, his breath becoming rapid. âYou think I wouldnât dare, huh?â
Right then, Cara slowly rose from the floor. She clutched Kaneâs thigh and shook her head at him, saying, âDr. Caldwell, thank you, but⦠I donât want to seek treatment anymore.â
Tears flowed down her cheeks, and her eyes were bloodshot. Millie couldnât even see the signs of aging in them anymore.
âI donât want to seek treatment anymore. Iâll go home with you. Iâll listen to you and do whatever you say,â Cara pleaded as she held onto Kaneâs thigh. âLetâs go home. Letâs stop
this.
The commotion caused everyone to look at them as if they were a spectacle.
Millie couldnât help but feel pathetic. When she saw Cara, she felt as though she had seen herself.
She had pleaded desperately, begging Winston to love her. Could a woman really not survive. without a man?
With that in mind, Millie strode over. She lifted Cara up and chided, âHave some dignity! Why are you begging him? Can he cure your illness? You might as well kneel and beg me!â
Kane seethed with anger as he brandished the knife toward Millie. âDidnât I tell you to mind your own business? Do you have a death wish?â
With the knife aimed at her face, he charged toward her.
The onlookers hurriedly backed away. Someone yelled, âDr. Caldwell, he has lost his mind! Ignore him! Just walk away now.â
âWhere are the security guards? Go get them!â
Millie continued to retreat. She watched as Kane lost control, and his movements with the knife were growing more reckless.
âI already said weâd go home together. What more do you want?â Caraâs cries from behind sounded particularly helpless.
Kaneâs anger intensified upon hearing that. He shouted, âIf it werenât for you, none of this would have happened! You bitch, Iâll kill you!â
With that, he charged toward his wife with the knife.
At that sight, Millie scowled and immediately rushed forward. She crouched down and shoved Cara aside.
Just as she was about to kick Kane, a figure suddenly dashed in from the crowd. The person moved with lightning speed.
Before Kane could approach Millie, the person swiftly kicked him aside.
The crowd gasped in surprise, with someone exclaiming, âItâs Mr. Greer!â
âWhy is Winston here?â Millie wondered. She lifted her head.
The man in front of her was indeed Winston. He turned slightly and looked down at her. It was as if he was ensuring her safety.
Meanwhile, Kane rubbed his stomach. He was visibly irritated at the sight of Winston. He said to Millie, âYou even called for backup, huh?â
Millie pushed Winston aside and approached Kane. With a stoic expression, she replied sternly, âI didnât call for backup, and I donât know him. If you want to fight, Iâm ready.â
âMillie, youâre a woman. Why do you want to fight with him?â Winston asked.
Millie immediately turned to look at him. It seemed like he had triggered something within her.
âA woman is no less than anyone else!â she retorted.
Winston was at a loss for words. He wasnât implying that Millie was inferior to anyone. It was just a matter of strength and size. Why did she insist on charging forward again?
âWomen are worthless! Without men, you canât survive!â Kane taunted, his words laced with
sarcasm.
Millie acted swiftly in response to his words. She kicked without hesitation, hooked her arm around Kaneâs neck, and forcefully pushed him back against a nearby pillar.
After that, she lifted her knee and slammed it into his face again and again.
Winston watched in shock. He couldnât believe that Millie knew how to fight.
She was indeed good at everything. However, over the years, she had chosen to restrain herself for unworthy individuals.
