Chapter 16
Millie was taken aback. She didn’t expect Winston to check the security footage. Nevertheless, that no longer mattered to her.
She applied a plaster on Winston’s hand before closing the first aid kit, saying, “All done.”
Winston frowned. He was displeased by how indifferent she seemed.
“Millie, I said I saw the security footage,” he repeated.
She looked at him and replied with a smile, “I heard you.‘
Winston’s frown deepened. Was that all? Wasn’t she going to ask for an apology or something?
Noting Winston’s confusion, Millie got up to return the first aid kit to the drawer while saying coolly, “In the past, I loved you, so I cared about your opinion of me. But now…”
Turning back around, she declared, “It doesn’t matter to me anymore.”
Winston licked his lips. His eyes flashed darkly as he asked with an unreadable expression, “You don’t love me anymore?”
“You’re so smart, Mr. Greer,” Millie said with a captivating smile as she leaned against the cabinet.
Loving him had already tormented her so much, so how could he expect her to continue loving him?
He stood by and watched as she fell down the staircase. Was that not enough for her to finally give up on him for good?
She would be such a fool if she continued to love him and remain by his side!
Winston’s gaze was stormy as he got up and walked over to Millie
Unfazed, she watched as he came closer.
He stood before her and rested both hands against the cabinet. Smirking, he remarked, “You had a change of heart so quickly, huh?
Millie had a faint smile on her face. Her eyes glittered as she replied, “What on earth do you mean, Mr. Greer? I only fell out of love with you after loving you for seven years. How is that quick?”
Narrowing his eyes, Winston gulped as he eyed her ruby lips. He couldn’t resist asking, “Do you regret loving me?”
Meeting his gaze, Millie declared in all seriousness, “Yes, I do.”
She regretted it, alright. How she wished she never had anything to do with Winston ever again.
Winston’s gaze hardened as he felt a strange tug in his heart.
“Let’s finalize the divorce proceedings tomorrow morning,” Millie said.
Winston’s expression turned grim. He was bothered by her mention of the divorce.
Seeing that Millie was about to leave, he instinctively grabbed her wrist.
Millie looked at him and asked in a tone that sounded foreign to him, “Did you need something, Mr. Greer?”
The frustration that Winston had been trying his best to hold in exploded out of him when he heard Millie addressing him as Mr. Greer yet again.
He pulled Millie back toward him before pinning her against the wall and kissing her.

saltiness of tears that rolled down to the edge of her mouth.
He paused and looked up, only to realize that she was crying.
He gulped, and when he saw how swollen her lips were, he finally realized how much of a bastard he had been just now.
Wiping her tears away, Millie glared at Winston with a look of
immense hatred as she asked, “Does Joanna know about the things you do to me?”
“Do you care a lot about what Joanna thinks?” Winston asked hoarsely.
“I just feel bad for her,” Millie said with a mocking smile. “She’s foolishly waiting for you to marry her, but you’re still pestering your soon–to–be ex–wife.”
Winston’s gaze was dark as he released Millie. Her response left him with mixed emotions. Shouldn’t she be feeling bad for herself instead?
“Since you don’t love me, Winston, you should just let me go. Don’t do things that’ll make people misunderstand you. You disgust me,” Millie said before leaving at once, leaving a frozen Winston behind.
His gaze dimmed as her words rang in his ear. She said he disgusted
her.
Never would he have thought that the words he once said to her would be thrown back at him now– but this time, he was the disgusting one.
Lowering his head, he reached into his pocket for a cigarette to settle his frazzled heart.
As soon as Millie stepped out of the lounge, she bumped into Jake who was looking for Winston.

Seeing as her eyes were teary and her lipstick was smudged, Jake asked tentatively, “Are you alright, Millie?”
She nodded.
“Have you seen Winston?” he asked.
Millie pointed at the lounge before heading off to the washroom.
Jake cocked an eyebrow, wondering how she knew where Winston was. Were they together just now?
He swiftly walked into the lounge, only to find Winston seemingly thought with his head bowed.
With one hand in his pocket, Jake approached Winston and asked, ” What’s up with you?”
Frowning, Winston asked, “Do you have a cigarette?”
Jake didn’t expect Winston to ask him for a cigarette. Chuckling, he took one out and passed it to Winston, saying, “This is great. Now that you’re divorcing Millie, no one’s going to nag you about smoking anymore.” a
Winston stiffened. The flame from the light flickered, lighting up his face.
Jake smirked as he glanced at Winston’s somewhat disheveled shirt. After recalling Millie’s smudged lipstick, he asked eagerly, “What happened just now? Did you two…”
“Nothing,” Winston replied evenly.
Jake scoffed. Nothing happened, huh? That was impossible!
“Tell me the truth, Winston. Are you changing your mind about getting a divorce?” he queried as he elbowed Winston.
Winston coughed.
