Everyone was stunned by her cold indifference. They were astonished when Millie unexpectedly asked Winston to kneel before her in front of so many people at the airport.
Sean took a step forward, and Eli smiled awkwardly and said, âMs. Caldwellâ¦â
âWhatâs wrong? Do you feel sorry for Mr. Greer?â Millie quickly looked at Eli.
Eli didnât sympathize with Winston. However, with so many people around, he couldnât allow Winston to kneel. If someone snapped a photo, it could cause chaos for Winston and Greer Groupâs stocks.
Eli was on the verge of persuading her, but Winston interrupted him. He advanced and positioned himself in front of Millie. He said seriously, âIâll kneel, and youâll stay.â
Millie looked at him closely and wondered if he would actually be willing to kneel and sacrifice his pride for her. Even though he said he could, she realized he still prioritized himself.
âDo you agree?â Winston asked, his tone more serious,
Millie chuckled. âKneel,â she said again nonchalantly.
Winston nodded in agreement, surprising everyone by ultimately kneeling before Millie.
Kneeling meant nothing compared to the harm he had done to Millie and the fact that she was willing to sacrifice her life for him. His dignity was insignificant compared to what Millie had given him.
Millie frowned as she gazed at Winston kneeling before her, but her heart remained unmoved. In the past, she might have softened, but not now; she remained remarkably composed.
Then, she sarcastically insulted, âYour knees are worthless.â
He looked at her and asked, âIs this not enough? Do you also want me to return your scar?â
Millie was perplexed and pondered the meaning behind his words.
With a wide smile, Winston gestured to his back and asked, âHow about I give you this scar back, Millie?â
Suddenly, he grabbed the car keys and locked eyes with Millie. Afterward, he removed his jacket. He casually slipped off the hospital gown, revealing his shoulders. He stared at Millie with a determined expression.
Millie appeared to anticipate Winstonâs actions. She stated icily, âThis doesnât prove anything. It wonât make my scar go away. Winston, stop guiltâtripping me
His actions would only reveal her ignorance and wouldnât bring her peace of mind. âI saved you out of love, not expecting anything in return for this scar.â
Millieâs tone softened slightly as she spoke, âWinston, I hate you. And Iâll hate you forever. Iâll never forgive you no matter how you beg me to. The best apology you can offer is to stay away from me.â
After saying that, Millie walked into the boarding bridge without hesitation. There was nothing to be nostalgic about. Now that the truth was revealed, she knew that one day, she would return to confront Joanna directly.
Marvin glanced at Winston intensely. He was utterly shocked when Winston knelt. However, compared to

the injuries Millie had suffered, kneeling was nothing.
Three years ago, Millie was thrown into the sea, and Marvin saved her. She was on the verge of death when Marvin found her. Despite this, she clung tightly to the necklace Winston had given her.
Millie loved Winston deeply, and no one loved him more than she did. However, it became apparent that not all the efforts yielded the desired results.
