Chapter 32
Seeing as he had no idea, Jake took his phone out immediately. He’d taken a screenshot upon seeing the headlines.
Thus, he read it out for Winston, “Simon Brings Dad to Visit Caldwells. Millie Caldwell and Winston Greer Divorce Speculation!”
Winston frowned, and his gaze fell on Jake’s face. He coughed softly and continued reading the next headline, “Harrisons Visit Caldwells. Millie and Simon to Tie the Knot Soon!”
Jake felt guilty upon reading it.
The media was too daring in their write–ups. They’d only gotten a picture. Everything else was a product of their imagination. How could it be that their wedding was approaching?
He took a peak at Winston. The lights had been dim enough in the room. With the air of iciness around him, Jake couldn’t even look at him.
After hearing the headlines, his mood soured even further.
The third headline…” Jake coughed and touched his nose. He glanced at Winston, seemingly asking for permission to continue.
Winston gritted his teeth and spat, “Go on!”
He wanted to see what else these unethical media outlets could come up with. How could he be unaware of having divorced Millie?
“The third one is…” Jake pursed his lips and mumbled softly, “Winston Greer’s Affair with Joanna Lowell, Promises Eternal Commitment.”
After finishing, he moved further away from Winston and put his phone in his pocket.
Winston glared at Jake. His gaze darkened as though he would like nothing more than to throw Jake’s phone on the floor.
“Winston, the first two headlines are indeed slander. However, the third headline…” Jake pursed his lips.
Could he say it? It was only a description of the truth!
He took his phone out and scrolled through various media outlet applications.
He and Joanna weren’t on the Hot and Trending pages. Rather, it was Simon and Millie.
The netizens had written their comments on the news.
“They look quite good together!”
“Has Milie and Winston really gotten a divorce? lye always thought that Winston didn’t treat her well. She made the correct choice by leaving him! She shouldn’t put herself down like that!”
“I agree. Don’t put yourself down, gorgeous. You belong together with Mr. Harrison!”

Winston tightened his grip on the phone and called Eli. He ordered, “Delete all the articles regarding the divorce between Millie and I!”
“Yes, Mr. Greer.
After hanging up, he thought f
for a moment before messaging his friend.
Before long, he received two pictures, followed by a text, “The Harrisons and the Caldwells ate dinner together tonight. Simon is getting ready to take Millie home.”
Jake said slowly, “You don’t say, Winston. Millie and Simon look rather good together!”
Winston glared at him. Was he trying to die?
Jake was unbothered. He put an arm around Winston’s neck and said playfully, “Winston, Millie is your ex–wife now. Whoever she’s with has nothing to do with you!”
Winston peeled Jake’s arm away. Just the sound of his voice annoyed Winston greatly. He downed his drink in one shot.
He looked at the picture of Millie and Simon on the phone.
Millie was smiling up at Simon. They looked happy as they discussed some unknown topic.
Winston furrowed his brow. His Adam’s apple bobbed. In the past, Millie had always looked at him and like that. No matter how horribly he treated her, the second he appeared, she would brighten up smile.
She would play tricks to get back at Joanna, and he would punish her in Joanna’s name. They argued Incessantly over this.
