“Win, why are you here?” Selma was surprised to see Winston. She had secretly gone to thehospital with Gloria and wondered who had informed him.

“Grandma, I asked him to come,” Millie interjected.

All her colleagues eagerly looked into the office, hoping to get firsthand information. When Winstonclosed the door, they all sighed. They wondered what they would talk about, especially with Winstonpresent.

“Grandma, Mom, I’ll take you home,” Winston said as he walked over and tried to help Selma up

Selma quickly pushed Winston away and crossed her arms. “I’m not going back!”

“This is a hospital, and Millie is working right now. Grandma, please be considerate,” Winstonadvised, lowering his voice.

Selma glared at Winston, a mix of grievance and disappointment in her eyes. “If you were capableof resolving your relationship issues on your own, I wouldn’t have bothered to come here.”

“Exactly!” Gloria agreed, her tone dripping with reproach.

Winston felt powerless. He said, “Mom, are you joining Grandma to make a fuss too?”

“We’re not making a fuss. This is very important,” Gloria asserted.

Millie felt a headache coming on as she looked at them. Winston turned and glanced at her.

“Since Grandma and Mom are here, why don’t we have a direct conversation about it?” Milliesuggested.

Winston frowned and acknowledged that it was time for a serious discussion with his family.

“Should we go to the café across the street?” Millie asked.

They were in the hospital with many people around, all eager to spread gossip. Any rumors couldharm

them.

“Sure,” Selma agreed instantly.

Winston couldn’t help but steal a glance at Selma, his eyes filled with helplessness. He longed tosend her home, but she adamantly refused.

However, when Millie suggested going to the café, she promptly agreed. At that moment, he foundhimself unsure whether she was his grandmother or Millie’s.

Winston pushed the office door open, startling the eavesdroppers lingering outside. They steppedback awkwardly and returned to work.

Everyone in the hallway was clearly peeping and gossiping about them. Even after they went to thecafé across the street, discussions continued at the hospital

“Has Millie been caught cheating on Winston by the Greer family? His mother and grandmothercame to the hospital today.”

“I saw them too. They came and cornered Millie in the office. Winston also showed up.”

“Millie and Winston’s marriage seems to be ending for real

“They went to the café across the street to talk, but I have no idea what they’ll discuss. I’m reallycurious

“Curiosity kills the cat. It’s best not to be too curious

Meanwhile, Joanna left the ward and looked at the nurses passing by. She frowned, wonderingwhether Selma and Gloria had truly come to the hospital to replace Millie.

In the private room of the café, Millie pulled out a chair for Selma, and they all sat

Winston sat across from Millie on the couch, looking relaxed, with his legs crossed and arms folded.However, his furrowed brow betrayed a strong sense of unease.

Selma firmly held Millie’s hand and addressed her directly. “Mills, I don’t want you and Win to get

divorced!”

Millie and Winston gazed into each other’s eyes. Then, she turned to Selma and said seriously,“Grandma, it’s over between Winston and me.”

“I’m sure you still love him,” Selma retorted.

Millie laughed bitterly. It seemed like everyone had been saying that she still loved him.
