Millie and Marvin glanced at Sean at the same time. So, Sean turned out to be the son of Bob "tringer and the heir of the Stringer family-one of the Four Great Families of Yerwick.
She checked him out. They weren't acquainted as he had left to study abroad very early in his life. She hadn't expected such an interesting first encounter with Sean, and she was surprised.
"I guess we're all friends now," he muttered feebly.
Millie pursed her lips. Well, she certainly didn't agree to befriend him.
“That's because Winston is a good friend of mine," he replied while mimicking the way she cocked her head at him.
Smiling, he added, "You're Winston's wife, if I'm not wrong."
"Mr. Stringer, you must've been abroad for far too long. You're not in the loop anymore," she said with a sigh.
Confused, he questioned, "What do you mean?"
"Mr. Greer and I might still be the trending topics if you check Twitter now." She pointed at his fingers.
He immediately picked up his phone. At the same time, he noticed something odd. Why did Millie address Winston as "Mr. Greer" instead of her husband?
If he remembered correctly, Winston's wife loved him very much. She would have called him "darling".
After searching for Winston's name, Sean saw the news about
Winston and Millie's divorce.
He was shocked but not surprised. Millie didn't successfully win over Winston like he had thought.
However, knowing Winston's stubbornness and his lack of feelings for Millie, Sean knew Winston and Millie were destined to go their separate ways. "So, you're divorced." He looked at Millie.
She grunted softly.
Sean couldn't help but sigh and feel sorry for the couple. However, any feelings of sympathy soon vanished.
"Thanks for saving me," he said to Millie.
She shrugged. "Don't mention it." It was just a small favor.
At that time, he started checking out Millie. Although she was barefaced, she exuded an aggressive beauty that left a strong. impression.
In reality, he had met her a few times in the past, but the memories from a long time ago had gradually faded.
He too was surprised to run into
Millie. Not only was he involved with
Julia before, but he would also forge a partnership with the Caldwell Group soon.
More importantly, Millie had saved him, and he regarded her as his savior. He really thought he would be dead if not for her help. Millie asked, "Did you rub someone wrong?"
She found it unbelievable that someone was out to get Sean as
soon as he landed in the country, especially after he had been staying abroad for a long time.
"It's just some family feud. Too many wanted me dead." Sean flashed her a nonchalant smile.
She said nothing to that. Family feuds could be really frightening.
"Millie, give me your number." He handed his phone to her.
She shook his head. "What happened tonight was not a big deal. Besides, we won't be in contact often in the future."
"Why did you say so?" He looked puzzled.
"You don't need to know." She grinned.
Sean returned to the country, ready to set up his life here, at a time when she was preparing to leave. They definitely would not stay in touch in the future. sto

Besides, she was tired of making new friends. All she wanted was to stay in her comfortable bubble.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
"You can check out at 3:00 pm tomorrow. Have a good rest
tonight. I'll leave now. If fate allows, we shall cross paths again." She waved at Sean coolly, bl goodbye without looking
Sean had wanted to see her out, but he was in too much pain.
