She's Out of Your League Now のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 521 - チャプター 530

Joanna failed to elaborate on her love for him. Baffled by his aloof attitude when they first met, she simply assumed that was his personality. She was proven wrong when she saw him smiling at Millie one day.When Millie was the subject of everyone's derisive laughter, he was the only one who stared at Millie with a frown and warned them not to laugh at her. Through that incident, Joanna finally saw the warmth in Winston's personality.Winston had been close with Millie since their college years; they were glued to each other all the time. Joanna took advantage of their relationship and gradually latched herself onto the duo.From her daily observations of Winston, Joanna found out that he treated Millie differently from how he treated others.Winston would occasionally humor her as she was Millie's friend. It all changed at that time when he lent her a hand after she was hit by a basketball on her way to deliver something to him on Millie's behalf.Ever since that incident, J

"Did you just kick Joanna out like that? Aren't you worried her parents might storm this place?" Winston commented nonchalantly while reading the news.Gloria snorted. "You should be thankful that I showed up. What would you do without me?""I will do the same as you did—throwing her and her stuff out of my room. I might even do it in a ruder way," he replied calmly as he looked up Damien Callister and the current lab Millie worked for on his phone.Gloria shot him a glare. "Had you been tougher on her, she wouldn't even have thought of visiting.""She was here no longer than a few minutes." He turned to Gloria. "I thought you weren't coming tonight.""I had a dinner to attend in the area and dropped by after it ended. I need to talk to you about Millie." Gloria poured herself a glass of water and said before drinking it, "It's—""Is it about the Apex Tower?" He cut her off, much to her surprise."How did you know about that?""Jake dropped by."Gloria chuckled. "Jake is much

A thunderous applause broke out in the room after Millie made the promise. She continued, "But research takes time due to trial and error. Our progress might be slow. As you focus your attention on our research, I hope for your patience too."Damien shot Millie a satisfied look. He was sure that Layla Caldwell's granddaughter would be as brilliant as she was, if not better. With Millie's help, he was confident in seeing a new breakthrough in SH2N's research."Glad to hear that. Thank you, Dr. Caldwell, for the sharing. We would like to thank the Caldwell family for their continuous efforts and support for the research project. Next, we open the floor to questions for Dr. Caldwell." With a smile, the host advanced into the next round.Someone piped up, "Great. Hi, Dr. Caldwell. I'm a reporter from Yerwick Media Inc. I would like to understand the progress of SH2N's development."Millie mused, "After getting our hands on the Aspher, we achieved a breakthrough in our drug development.

Eli turned and gaped at his employer. He always believed that he knew Winston the best, but he hadn't expected him to admit to his regrets in front of the reporters on this occasion.More importantly, this came after Millie shut down the reporters onstage just now. Winston's admission made him look pathetic.A hush fell onto the reporters before they fired questions at him again. "What makes you regret the divorce? If we recall correctly, your marriage to Dr. Caldwell was rather tepid. Most people didn't even know that she was your wife!""Have you only developed an interest in Dr. Caldwell because you lost her?"The reporters didn't hold back. Winston stared at them for a while before replying with a frown, "There's a minor misunderstanding between Millie and me."The reporters looked at each other in silence. He continued, "Now that we've cleared up the misunderstanding, I will continue to communicate with her. If I have a chance, I'll go back to pursuing her."His last remar

Winston stared at their chat history with mixed feelings.Once again, Millie had blocked her. She'd only unblock his number when she had to reach out to him, and she'd immediately block him when he wasn't needed.That was characteristic of her, though.Winston put away his phone and massaged his forehead in inexplicable frustration. Soon, he rose from his seat and grabbed his jacket. He left his office and said, "Eli, let's go to the pier."Since he felt bothered when he was free, his solution was to make himself busy.Winston leaned against the car seat and scrolled through the comments under the news. He was curious about the public take on the issue when Eli suddenly hit the brakes."Mr. Greer!"Winston jolted forward a little, but he quickly grabbed the handle in the car. Frowning, he asked, "What's wrong?""It's Joanna," Eli revealed exasperatedly.Joanna had placed herself in front of Winston's car by the Greer Tower. Winston's frown deepened at the sight of the woma
