She's out of Your League Now (Millie and Winston) novel Chapter 280

Chapter 280 

Jake almost believed that Rachel was nice enough to let it go. Then, he looked at Joanna.” 

No idea.” 

Joanna was dressed beautifully and gracefully tonight. Perhaps it was due to her illness, but she exuded a delicate charm tinged with a touch of vulnerability. She appeared somewhat pitiful and deserving of love. 

After Joanna entered, she walked straight over to Winston. The people around Winston cleared a path for her. She stood in front of Winston and said with a smile, “Win.” 

“Why are you here?” Winston was surprised and wondered why she had come here instead of resting in the hospital. 

Joanna smiled. “I’m here to attend the event with you.” 

“You still haven’t fully recovered,” Winston whispered. 

Joanna immediately shook her head. “I’m fine.” 

Winston and Millie had finally divorced, and now she could openly attend any event with him. She was determined not to miss any opportunity to showcase her relationship with Winston. 

“Mr. Greer, who is this?” Margaret asked deliberately. 

Winston’s cold gaze landed on Margaret. She must be aware of who Joanna was. He felt no need to introduce her. A few days ago, the news had just revealed that he and Joanna were having an affair. 

“Oh, she must be your friend, right?” Margaret smiled. As Wilson did not reply, she tried to cover for herself. 

Joanna glanced at Winston, who was silent when others asked about her identity. The unsettling sensation of discomfort washed over her. 

“Win and I are more than just friends,” Joanna retorted proudly and seriously. 

“Win, tell her what our relationship is,” she urged, her eyes fixed on Winston, eager for him to provide a definitive answer. 

All eyes were fixed on Winston. At that moment, he was the focus of attention. 

Winston felt irritated, unable to shake off the embarrassment Joanna had caused him. Tonight’s party was for the entertainment industry, not their usual crowd. 

Did she really have to draw everyone’s attention like that? 

As the thoughts swirled in his mind, he found himself searching for Millie.

At that moment, Millie was seated with her back to him. She was enjoying her food. It seemed like what was happening to him had nothing to do with her. 

“This bitch is causing trouble again.” Rachel’s anger was ignited instantly. 

Jake chuckled. “Do female celebrities also swear?” 

“I don’t just swear, I can also easily beat her up with my martial arts skills,” Rachel said, glaring at Joanna. 

Rachel stopped Millie as she was about to drink her coffee. “You two just got divorced, and they’re already flaunting their affection in public. Aren’t they afraid of karma?” 

Jake couldn’t help but find Rachel interesting. 

As she noticed his gaze fixed upon her, she warned, “Stay away from me.” 

Jake was taken aback. 

“You’re Winston’s friend. You’re just like him.” Rachel showed no attempts to conceal her prejudice. 

Jake felt that this judgment was unfair to him. “Oh, please. I’m not a scumbag.” 

Rachel didn’t bother to listen to his explanation.
