It was no surprise that Winston, who woke up two days ago, suddenly developed a high fever and slipped back into a coma. It was because he went out in the rain to look for Millie.
Logan glanced at Joannaâs room and let out a sigh. He knocked on the door and said seriously, âJo, I understand your feelings for Winston. But if he doesnât like you back, keeping him wonât make you truly happy.â
Both of them fell silent. Logan looked conflicted. âI mean⦠why notâ¦â
He wanted to advise her to stop loving Winston. She had many options as the heiress of the Lowell family. It didnât have to be Winston, especially considering he was divorced.
âI only want to be with Winston. I donât want anyone else but him!â she shouted hoarsely behind the door.
Logan sighed heavily. âBut I donât think Winston likes you at all. It seems like your affection is unrequited. Just read the news and see for yourself!â
After that, Logan left.
Joanna couldnât hold back her tears as she lay on the bed. After hearing what Logan said, she hastily grabbed her phone.
When she came across the news about Winston kneeling before Millie, she was speechless and overwhelmed. She couldnât believe Winston had actually done that.
Was this the same Winston she once knew?
The comments were all provocative and aimed to mock Winston. It was surprising to everyone that the influential man of Yerwick actually knelt.
Who was so reprehensible to publish such news online to stir up controversy? Didnât it happen two days ago? Why was the news spreading now?
Joanna was shocked to see him kneel in front of Millie. Although he had always been gentle to her, he would never do anything that could harm his reputation.
Joanna was sad. As Logan had mentioned, she couldnât hold on to Winston. Despite Winston never truly being hers, Joanna had developed an intense, almost obsessive affection for him.
She believed that she couldnât live without Winston. If she left him, she would die. She greatly desired his affection and kindness.
They had been together for three years, and now she couldnât bear the thought of him leaving her suddenly.
Joannaâs heart ached thinking about it, but she had no other option but to keep going.
Gloria stood by the window in the hospital, her arms folded. She was looking at the scenery outside, feeling worried.
Brian approached her and placed a coat around her shoulders. She turned her head and offered a gentle

smile before returning her gaze to the window.
She also saw the news of Winston kneeling. Upon learning that Millie was the one who saved Winston during the kidnapping case three years ago, she realized the extent of her sacrifices for the Greer family.
Some people were different than they seemed. Nevertheless, as they learned more about Millie, they liked her even more and felt ashamed of their
wn actions.
Gloria flashed a wry smile. âWin has been making one mistake after another. Who should be held accountable for the three years that were taken from Millie?
âIâm truly at a loss for words when it comes to Joanna⦠Ultimately, we must also take responsibility. We didnât realize who saved Winston three years ago.â
She felt ashamed and regretful.
Brian gently patted her shoulder, reassuring her not to burden herself with all the blame. âOnce Win is feeling better, weâll personally visit the Caldwell family to apologize,â he said.
âJust apologizing isnât enough. It canât make things right with Millie.â Gloria shook her head, feeling ashamed to even face Millie.
At that instant, Winston called out softly from the bed, Momâ¦â
