Gloria and Brian instantly turned toward him and saw Winston looking at them weakly.

She had never seen Winston look so haggard. Since he had taken over the leadership of Greer Group, he couldn’t afford to appear this way. The company couldn’t function without a strong leader, and he couldn’t risk losing his authority and dignity in front of others.

Perhaps he had been too comfortable for the past 20 years. Now was the true beginning of Winston’s life. It was time for him to face adversity.

As a mother, Gloria felt powerless to help him, just as she was unable to prevent him from divorcing Millie. “How are you feeling?” Gloria asked, offering him a glass of water.

Winston shook his head slightly.

Despite feeling sorry for him, Gloria still reprimanded him, “Serves you right!”

Winston had brought this upon himself.

“Millie was so kind. But you weren’t interested in her and instead chose to pursue Joanna. Your grandmother, your dad, and I have a wealth of life experience. Will we ever harm you?

“If only you had placed a little trust in us, perhaps you wouldn’t have found yourself in this unfortunate situation,” Gloria continued to criticize him without holding back.

Winston was fully aware of his mistake and now deeply remorseful.

Brian sighed as he stayed silent, neither stopping Gloria from scolding Winston nor comforting him. Winston observed Brian’s silence and understood that he had truly made a grave mistake. His actions have let down his family and everyone who believed in him, particularly the Caldwell family.

“The doctor is here,” Gloria said when she glanced outside.

Upon entering the ward, the doctor said, “Allow me to assess Mr. Greer’s condition and thoroughly examine his injuries.”

Winston sustained a deep cut on his waist.

When he rescued Joanna, he was unaware of his injuries. It wasn’t until Eli rushed him to the hospital and his hands were stained with blood that he realized the severity of his condition. The blood had seeped through his shirt and suit jacket, hidden by the darkness of the fabric.

He was seriously injured.

The doctor examined his wound and advised, “There’s still inflammation. You sustained a serious injury this time. Please rest well and closely monitor your diet.”

Gloria and Brian nodded

The doctor reminded Winston, “You must keep the wound dry. It was torn open a few days ago and became infected after being exposed to rain. If it gets infected again, it could significantly delay the healing process.”

Winston nodded silently. He still appeared frail and pale, his gaze slightly unfocused as he glanced at the

doctor.

He suddenly remembered what happened to Millie three years ago. His minor injury now made him suffer greatly. He wondered how she had managed to overcome her injury back then.

He felt even guiltier at that thought. He already felt guilty towards Millie, and now it was even worse.

He didn’t know how to make it up to Millie, as if nothing would be enough. Even if he devoted his life to her, it wouldn’t be valuable enough.

Brian guided the doctor out. Gloria looked at the dazed Winston and asked, “Are you thinking about Millie again?”

When Winston looked at her, he noticed how much she had aged recently. He couldn’t help but feel a pang of guilt, knowing that he was the cause.

“I should’ve listened to you,” he said.

Gloria sneered. “If you truly listened to me, I might even question whether you’re truly my child.”

She shook her head. “Take it one step at a time. Make right what needs to be made right. Don’t forgive those who don’t deserve it!”
