"Can we still be like in high school? You're always there for me when I'm hurt." Winston knew she didn't want to hear this, but he felt the need to say it.Millie revealed her true feelings to him, yet he never confessed to her. He never found the courage to tell Millie that he loved her."Millie, you can still be yourself and stay happy. Please come back to me, okay?" He wanted to touch her, but his hand stopped midair when she turned to look at him.The emotion reflected in her eyes was so unsettling that it left him uneasy and helpless. His love for her was like a hesitant hand reaching out but afraid to make contact. He found himself increasingly concerned about Millie's feelings and the way she gazed at him. He felt utterly powerless."Back to you?" she repeated softly."Do you really believe a broken heart can be fixed with just a few words?" Millie asked, gazing into his eyes. She saw love in his eyes but felt none in her own."If I come back to you, it will only be for

Winston stood there, swirling the wine in his glass before downing it. He then grabbed the coat beside him and said, "I wish you and Rachel a successful partnership. I'm heading back now."Jake turned to see only Winston's back. It appeared that he had lost weight recently. He no longer looked as robust as he once did.Winston left the hotel and was surprised to see it snowing in Yerwick at the end of November. Snowflakes landed on his black coat as he walked down the steps. The surroundings were white and beautiful. In the distance, Eli waited by the car for him to get in.Winston was about to leave when he noticed a slim figure nearby. Eli glanced over and noticed it was Millie, crouching with snow in her hands. Her jacket lay on the ground, and she wore only a dress. Her hair was tied up, and her ears were red from the cold.Winston frowned. She always behaved this way. She always wore thin clothes to play in the winter snow and went barefoot in the summer rain. Deep within her,

Millie arrived home and hurriedly jumped onto the bed, leaving her bag and slippers aside. Taking a deep breath, she rolled over to gaze at the ceiling, instinctively rubbing her face. Winter had arrived, and the chill was settling in.It was after 10:00 pm, and snowflakes danced gently outside. After a hot shower, she felt wide awake after her skincare routine. Suddenly, an idea struck her. Hence, she made her way to the study and powered on the long-forgotten computer.She logged into the M Base system and was greeted with a flood of emails. It was so overwhelming that she couldn't possibly read them all. Many people reached out, hoping she'd return, participate in activities, and attend events.Millie despised revealing her identity. M Base operated like a black market. It was a platform to sell and buy work. However, exposing her identity was utterly out of the question. M was an incredibly influential figure. If she were to show up, it would send everyone into a frenzy.Si

Millie arrived at the research lab after 10:00 am. The unexpected heavy snowfall enveloped the city, casting a chilly ambiance throughout.Wrapping her arms tightly around herself, her two dark circles revealed her fatigue. As she gently massaged around her eyes, Natalie entered with some documents. Noticing Millie's exhausted appearance, she couldn't help but mock her."You may be in your 20s, but you already appear to be in your 30s. I can't even imagine how you'll look when you actually reach your 30s," she remarked sarcastically as she set her things down.Millie felt exasperated with Natalie, finding her quite annoying.She opened the file and sneered. "People in their 30s have their own way of living, but regardless of my age, I surpass you. Natalie, focus on yourself and stop fretting over matters that aren't your concern."She subtly indicated to Natalie that her appearance was irrelevant to her and urged her to mind her own business.Natalie snorted coldly and fell silen

Everly wore a mask and cap in the hospital, and they didn't talk much in the elevator. Millie was surprised when Everly suggested visiting Layla together. Anyway, she also wanted to ask Layla about her plans after Aspher's refining."Will you be staying in Yerwick for a while?" Millie initiated a conversation after exiting the elevator.“Yeah. I decided to take a break. I'm exhausted and just don't feel like filming anymore.” Everly yawned, appearing quite lethargic.Passersby couldn't help but glance at Everly multiple times. After all, her outfit was undeniably unconventional.All of a sudden, Everly's phone rang. She sighed. "It's my assistant. I'm going to take this call. You can head in first.""Alright." Millie took the gifts Everly purchased for Layla. As she opened the ward door, she heard faint cries from inside, so soft that she had to listen closely to catch them.Millie frowned and sighed, realizing it was Layla crying. She lowered her head, knowing Layla must be very
