She's out of Your League Now (Millie and Winston)

League 359

Winston walked to the spot where Millie had just been, only to discover that she had already gone.

Winston frowned and looked around. The waiter approached and inquired in Encerian,” Sir, how may I assist you?”

Winston asked, “Where’s the woman who was sitting here?”

The waiter pointed outside. “She just left.”

Winston rushed outside when he caught sight of Millie getting into the car. He chased after her, for her figure was a lot like Millie’s.

Just as he was about to drive after her, Eli approached and asked, “Mr. Greer, is everything alright?”

“I think I spotted Millie,” he replied coldly.

Eli felt perplexed. “Ms. Caldwell? That can’t be right. I just visited her at the hospital before coming here. She should be in the hospital now.”

Eli glanced over the direction Winston was looking and said firmly, “Mr. Greer, we have other pressing matters to attend to. Let’s not waste any time.”

Winston remained silent. What Eli said made sense. It seemed clear that Millie should be in the hospital at this moment; there was no reason for her being here.

“Mr. Greer, how’s your arm?” Eli asked.

Winston shook his head. “It’s fine. Has our stuff been delivered yet?”

Eli promptly nodded. “Yes, Mr. Greer. The Aspher has been successfully delivered to the

auction.”

“William likes Aspher very much. Let him auction it off today,” Winston instructed casually.

William liked it, and Winston coincidentally had it. However, William had his own ways of doing business and wouldn’t accept gifts. Thus, Winston decided to send it to the auction, allowing William to bid on it.

This way, William wouldn’t feel uncomfortable and would remember Winston’s kindness. After all, Winston was generous with such valuable medicinal material, showing sincerity in this cooperation.

“Boss, I haven’t had my coffee yet!” Marvin grumbled aggrievedly in the car.

Millie glanced back and sighed. “What a small world. Winston’s here too.”

Marvin was stunned. “What? He’s in Musbane too?”

“Yeah. He’s here for business,” she replied calmly.

Marvin pouted. “Sometimes you and Winston seem to have a strange link.”

Upon hearing this, Millie’s gaze turned icy as she looked at Marvin. There was a hint of disdain and threat in her eyes. If he dared utter another word, she would unleash her fury upon him.

With a chuckle, Marvin remarked, “I’ve already collected the dress. You can try it on later, boss. The attendees coming to this auction are all dignitaries. They seem to be dressed modestly, but they areNôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

actually wearing branded clothes. The plain–looking clothes are all custom–made.”

“Hmm.” Millie rested her chin on her hand. She glanced out the window without paying much attention to what he said.

Marvin continued, “I also managed to borrow some exquisite high–end jewelry. Boss, you’ll undoubtedly be the most glamorous woman tonight!”

Glancing at Marvin, she was left speechless. “Why are you trying to draw attention? We’re here to secure the bid for Aspher.”

“Bidding for Aspher is indeed important, but we have to dress properly too. And just to inform you, it’s a masked auction tonight,” added Marvin.

Millie’s curiosity was piqued. “What do you mean?”

“Half an hour before the auction begins, there will be a masked cocktail party where people can mingle and chat. Then, after half an hour, everyone will be given a number and go to their assigned auction rooms.

Millie was surprised. “Shouldn’t we all be sitting together?”

“No.” Marvin shook his head.
