Winston tenderly rested his hands on Millieâs shoulders, his eyes reflecting both seriousness and a sense of helplessness. âAfter our separation, I realized that I-
Millie sneered and removed his hands. âYouâre not seriously going to tell me that you realized you were in love with me after breaking up, are you?â
Winstonâs hands fell to his sides. He felt his heart ache as he looked at the mocking expression on her face. He was overwhelmed with sadness.
It seemed like Millie now displayed all the emotions that he had once shown. He couldnât help but wonder if this was some form of punishment or karma. It felt like retribution had come to him surprisingly fast.
Millie sharply brushed off the areas of her body that Winston had touched. She gave him a cold stare and said with disdain and sarcasm, âI wonder if Mr. Greer is familiar with the saying that belated affection is meaningless? Donât doubt. Iâm referring to you.â
Winston hesitated, uncertain of how to reply.
Millie grinned happily as she watched Winston speechless before her. Despite Joanna being the one who saved him, he could have discussed it with her. It became evident to her that he simply didnât love her.
He believed their marriage was insignificant and that the identity of his spouse didnât really matter. If that was the case, she didnât want his love. She was better off without it.
âLetâs go, Marvin,â Millie said..
She intended to handle Joanna, one way or another. However, there was no need to rush. She planned to go abroad to study first, and then she would address the situation with Joanna..
âAlright!â Marvin immediately followed her.
Upon witnessing the situation, Eli promptly inquired, âMs. Caldwell, do you really have to go overseas?â Millie questioned, âIf not, then what? Should I stay and endure being doubted, humiliated, and abandoned?
Millie was confident, and her words were always spotâon. Everyone present was left in awe by her powerful presence.
She used to be polite because she was wellâmannered. However, after finding out about Winston and Joannaâs actions, she realized that her politeness was pointless and only hurt her.
âMs. Caldwell, Mr. Greer was left with no choice at that moment.â Eliâs expression and tone conveyed a sence of powerlessness.
âBut his actions hurt me directly.â Millie looked at Winston.
She had never seen Winston so deeply embarrassed before. As his embarrassment intensified, her discomfort grew.
It was clear that she was the one who had been hurt. Yet, he showed such vulnerability that she couldnât comprehend,

Winston decided to stand up for himself. âMillie, please stay. Let me make it up to you, okay? Maybe itâs
not too late now.â
âBullshit!â Millie sneered, refusing to utter another word to him.
Sean frowned and sighed. Millie seemed to not care about Winston anymore.
Millie grabbed her bag from Marvin and presented the boarding pass directly to the airline staff. There was no way she would stay for him.
âAs long as you stay, Iâll give you whatever you want,â he said seriously, sounding out of breath and muffled.
Millie didnât respond. Then, the airline staff returned it to her.
She glanced at her boarding pass and heard him plead. âMillie, please. I would even kneel just to beg for your forgiveness. Please forgive the mistakes of my past.â
Millie pondered his words, contemplating her situation. She questioned whether Winston ever considered her feelings when she desperately pleaded for his attention and naively believed he would reciprocate her love..
He was just being mean to her. How could she possibly overlook and forgive him for what he had done to her?
She turned to look at Winston.
Winstonâs eyes were bloodshot and his shoulders trembled uncontrollably. He thought there was hope when he saw her turn around.
He stepped forward as Millie said, âGo ahead and knee.â
