Semua Bab She's Out of Your League Now: Bab 671 - Bab 680

Though Millie felt apologetic for creating the mess, she believed Winston was responsible for cleaning it up.After she said what she wanted to say, she began to leave. However, Winston grabbed her wrist and yanked her toward him.The strength of his grip caused a sharp pain. She inhaled sharply.He turned to address Ivory in an annoyed tone, "You head back for now. We'll discuss the agreement sometime later."Ivory nodded furiously. Knowing that she shouldn't stay a second longer, she escaped without saying a word.After the door closed, Millie struggled in Winston's grip. She was aware that his eruption was the culmination of days of tolerating her behavior.He was truly pissed.However, Millie didn't fear him. She wanted him to understand that he too pissed her off by crossing her boundaries."Millie Caldwell, that's very bold of you." He glowered at Millie and pulled her closer. He pinned her by the waist, forcing her body to press against his.They were very close to each

Winston believed Millie was decisive and level-headed. If she dated Sean one day, it could only be out of revenge."Stop fantasizing. You're not worthy of my revenge. Now, let me go." She shoved him away. It was time to head back.Head hung low, Winston lost the confidence in pestering her. Still, he looked at the back of her figure and declared, "Millie, I won't give up."She stopped in her tracks for a moment. Then, she remarked airily, "Don't be hung up on things that won't happen."That made him frown. He replied, "Millie, you are me, and I am you."He believed he too could love her stubbornly, just like she did."You'll never be me." She turned, her gaze sweeping past his face. No one could be like Millie Caldwell and replicate her love and her sacrifice for Winston—not even Winston himself.The door of the dining room slammed shut. Standing outside the door, Millie didn't realize that her fists were clenched. She kept her head low, and her throat tightened. She struggled w

"Am I wrong for saying that about you? Do you feel it was unfair?" Winston gritted his teeth and glowered at her. "Stop saying you did it all for me when it was to satisfy your own greed!"He added, "Joanna Lowell, I wasn't responsible for your lie about saving my life, and I never asked that you repeatedly hurt Millie for the past three years. It was all your fault for putting on an act around me!" He slapped the table as he grilled her.Joanna had rarely seen him lashing out this aggressively. She realized she had thoroughly made him furious."Win, I know I'm in the wrong, but I had no choice…" She stood up to sit beside him, but he got up from the couch and shunned her. He avoided her like the plague. His act of shunning her hurt her feelings. It was at that moment she realized that the man whom she had dated for three years never truly loved her. His tenderness and loving behavior were all for show.She was such a pathetic loser! Indeed, she'd lied to Winston about saving

Winston had never been subjected to such humiliation before. Looking out of the window, he recalled Millie's words. "To you, it's just something I could get over. That's because you're not the one who's hurt!"Wasn't he hurt? How about his life right now? A misunderstanding had led to the situation right now. All these wouldn't have happened if not for Joanna.Yes, Joanna was the core of the problem. It was all her fault. But what good would it do if he were to punish Joanna? It wasn't like the action could win him a second chance with Millie.Resting against the couch, he shut his eyes and allowed his emotions to come out in the deep of the night. He was so helpless in front of Millie, the guilt of past mistakes weighing on him.His phone chimed. Ivory's text appeared on the screen. She wrote, "Win, are you home? You okay?"He frowned. Instead of feeling touched, he was annoyed at her display of concern. It reminded him of the time he thought Millie's check-in texts were anno

Brian felt calmer after Winston arrived at the scene. Winston patted him on his trembling shoulder before turning to the doctor. "What's the latest update?""The patient's vital signs are weak. We'll try our best," said the doctor.Winston pondered, "How did the stroke happen out of the blue?""That's stroke and heart-related diseases for you. You should feel thankful that she's sent to the hospital in time. We'll do our best," the hospital director, Sebastian Lloyd, chimed in.He was about to leave when something popped up in his mind. "Mr. Greer."Winston looked up. "What is it?""If you don't mind me saying this… I hope you'll look for this person for safety."Winston looked confused."I'm talking about the well-known miracle doctor in our field, Milla Webson," Sebastian suggested earnestly."Do I need to look for her right now?"Sebastian nodded. "Yes. Do it immediately. Your grandma will need to go through a long and tedious recovery after the surgery. She might recover
