Millie's thoughts were muddled. Hence, she did not notice that Winston was following her.Simon stepped on the accelerator, hoping to leave Winston in the dust. However, the latter sped up, too. As the cars reached the overpass, rain pounded on the windows.Right then, Millie inadvertently spotted Winston's car in the rearview mirror. There was a pause before she turned back to look. "Winston is following us," said Simon. What was he doing there? Wasn't he supposed to take Joanna home?Millie thought about it for a moment, then answered, "Maybe he's just going the same way."But Simon did not think so. He could tell Winston was not going the same way from his accelerating. The two cars raced on the overpass. Winston, with his impressive driving skills, would intermittently find himself side by side with Simon. As Millie looked at Winston's vehicle, she felt a myriad of emotions swirling within her.If he was indeed following them, did that mean he cared about her, even j

Joanna's mouth twitched slightly. There was a hint of unease was evident in her expression."Millie wants to meet M, too?" she wondered."Ms. Lowell, you're really well-connected. You can even meet someone like M. Unlike me, I can only hear stories about him…" Millie remarked, wearing an expression that showed her longing to meet M. Joanna scoffed. Of course, she could meet M. She was the daughter of the Lowell family. Anything she wanted was just a snap of the fingers away. "Although my family is powerful, we can't compare to the Four Great Families. We're still nowhere near your level. Since we're good friends, why not let me broaden my horizons?"Millie would not stop belittling the Caldwells.Joanna raised an eyebrow. Being admired by others was her weakness. She loved the feeling of being worshiped, especially when the person before her was Millie. "I'll have to ask M first," Joanna responded. Millie immediately questioned, "Considering how close you are with M, is it

Joanna's face turned ashen in an instant.Did M block her? She was Joanna Lowell! How could he do that to her?She attempted to send messages to M, but there was only one tick. Every time she tried, her phone froze up.What was happening?Millie, on the other hand, was still looking at Joanna's phone. Seeing that, Joanna quickly turned her screen away, refusing to let Millie have another look.In the next second, Joanna called her assistant and asked, "Why can't I contact M?""Ms. Lowell, did you offend M?""What do you mean?" Joanna bit her lip.Her assistant explained, "Ms. Lowell, y-you've been blacklisted in the black market! M said that from now on, nobody can take your orders. If they do, they'd be in his bad books!"Joanna's face darkened after hearing that. What did this mean?"Ms. Lowell, this is bad… We won't be able to get the Snowdrop anymore."Joanna slumped onto the couch, completely in a daze.But she had not offended M! Wasn't it M who had been standing he

"Mrs. Greer Senior, we heard you love jewelry. So, we, the Xander family, are giving you a pair of white pearl earrings! We hope you'll accept them!""Mrs. Greer Senior, the Millers mustn't be left out. We've prepared an exquisite emerald bracelet for you!"Selma gazed at the group of middle-aged men before her, a glimmer of amusement in her eyes. The atmosphere was filled with joy and laughter. The butler collected the presents while noting down the names of the givers. Besides presenting gifts, the guests also showered Selma with well wishes, eagerly trying to make a good impression. Many had gone to great lengths to acquire jewelry for Selma's birthday party. Failing to leave an impression on her would be considered a great loss. Right then, someone suddenly asked, "I heard the Lowells will give the world's only Snowdrop to Mrs. Greer Senior. Is that true?"All eyes turned to the man in the corner. He was in his thirties, with a simple and earnest appearance. Under the

Joanna paused as she was about to unwrap the Snowdrop. She stared as Selma dashed toward the door, feeling annoyed. She could not help but bite her lip in frustration. What was so special about Millie? Selma could not even be bothered with the Snowdrop upon learning about Millie's arrival. The doors of the hall were slowly pushed open, and everyone shifted their gazes to the entrance. Gasps of surprise and admiration could be heard when they saw who it was. Even Selma was somewhat taken aback before breaking into a smile. Only her precious Millie could be this stunningly beautiful. Millie was adorned in a silver V-neck mermaid gown, her black hair neatly tied up. Her skin was fair, with just a hint of her chest peeking through the neckline. The gown perfectly accentuated her curves, highlighting her elegant neckline and defined shoulders. Millie's beautiful features were enhanced by flawless makeup. With red lips and alluring doe eyes, she appeared as captivating as a queen
