Millie rubbed her forehead in frustration. A wave of self-reproach washed over her as the thought lingered. She couldn't help but feel like she had compromised her principles, letting herself be far too easy to push around. Just because Joanna was jealous and wanted the gift, she had given her the one meant for Rachel. Millie couldn't even remember what she had ended up giving Rachel for her birthday. All she recalled was Rachel's casual response, saying that her presence was enough and the gift didn't really matter. But Millie would never forget everything she had done for Joanna. She had treated her well to the point she couldn't understand why Joanna had betrayed her and stolen her man. Looking back, it was obvious. She had let Joanna walk all over her because she didn't set any boundaries. Joanna must have figured Millie would never get angry, not with how generously she had treated her. So, when she took Millie's spot at university, stole Winston, and everything else, sh

"Winston Greer, don't overstep. Where I go is none of your business, and I don't owe you an explanation!" Millie frowned, irritation clear in her voice."I…" Winston began. For a moment, he couldn't muster a response. Every time she called him out for crossing a line, it left him completely defenseless. Millie grabbed her coat from him while he stood rooted to the spot, his lips pressed tightly together. She put it on and stepped outside. Without a word, he followed her. The tension between them was palpable.Millie slipped on her shoes, her dress skimming the ground. Instinctively, Winston bent to lift the hem. A gust of wind hit her the moment she stepped outside, sending a shiver through her. She descended the stairs with Winston still trailing behind.Millie couldn't help but glance back at him. He wore the look of someone who had just been reprimanded, silent and sulking. She pursed her lips and let out a sigh. "What are you doing?"Why was he trailing after her like thi

Millie stepped in, her eyebrow arched as every eye in the room locked onto her. As soon as they saw her, admiration rippled through the room. She was absolutely dazzling."Am I late?" she asked, her voice carrying a lazy drawl.Everyone shook their heads in unison.Lindy grinned at her. "Mills, I'm so glad you made it!""I'm happy to see everyone too." Millie flashed them a smile as she shrugged off her fur coat. "I heard a few of you have been promoted. Honestly, I'm a little envious."Just as she was about to hang up her coat, someone stepped forward, offering to help her. Millie narrowed her eyes. That didn't feel right. They were all classmates, after all. "I've got it, thanks," she said, politely declining and hanging the coat herself.The woman felt somewhat embarrassed, and someone nearby let out a snicker. "What a suck-up," an unfriendly voice muttered. "Yeah, she's always trying to curry favor," another person chimed in, their tone dripping with sarcasm. The wo

"Tell us the truth. You got married right after graduation—was it because you were pregnant?" one of the guys asked bluntly.Millie froze upon hearing that. How did they know so much?The woman looked somewhat embarrassed. With 30 people surrounding her, how could she possibly answer such a direct question?"Hey, this is the truth game. If you don't answer, you have to drink. And if you pass out, you'll miss all the juicy gossip," Hector reminded her.This truth game was the kind of thing that might only happen once in a lifetime. The bottle landing on Millie was just a matter of chance, but once it did, no one would let her off easy. The woman clenched her hands tightly, debating whether to confess or drink. Her eyes darted between the glass of vodka and the faces of her classmates. After a moment, she finally spoke. "Yes."Millie couldn't believe it. So, the woman had really gotten married because she was pregnant.The woman frowned. She hadn't told the truth because she fe

Millie glanced at the time. It was already 4:00 pm. After dinner, she might still need to head to another get-together. After all, it was New Year's Eve.Suddenly, someone shouted, "Wow! Owen, it's you again!"Millie snapped back to reality and turned her attention to Owen, who was indeed in the hot seat once more. At that point, he was drenched in sweat. How had things taken such a turn? He had come to catch up on gossip, yet somehow, the bottle had landed on him again.Owen was infuriated. "Go on, ask away!" He sighed.Millie raised an eyebrow. In the ensuing silence, she asked, "I heard you're dating someone. Is it Professor Hamilton's daughter?"Everyone turned to her in unison, disbelief written all over their faces. Earlier, she had checked the M Base system for some information. Edgar had a daughter who was 22 years old and stunningly beautiful.Not long ago, someone had taken a photo of her with a man and claimed she was dating a guy three years her senior.Millie ha
