She's out of Your League Now (Millie and Winston) novel Chapter 315

Chapter 315 

Millie paused briefly before rushing into the elevator. Then, she quickly deleted the message containing the number and pressed the floor button. By the time she arrived, she saw that Jake had sent her a question mark. 

Millie scratched her nose and replied, “Sorry, Mr. Webson, I sent it to the wrong person.” 

Jake: “Who did you want to send it to?” 

Millie: “Simon, He wants to collaborate with Rachel.” 

Jake: “What kind of collaboration?” 

Millie: “I’m not sure. It seems like he’s looking for a brand ambassador or someone to promote their jewelry products.” 

Jake grew anxious upon learning that. Wouldn’t this interfere with his plans? If Rachel accepted Simon’s deal, could she still take on his endorsement? 

Jake: “Mills, are we friends?” 

Millie narrowed her eyes after reading his text, wondering why he was asking this out of the blue. She replied, “Not really.” 

Jake: “Oh, come on! Don’t say that!” 

Nevertheless, Millie ignored him and sent Rachel’s manager’s contact information to Simon. She wrote, This is the contact for Rachel’s manager. I’ve already informed Rachel. You can discuss it with them.” 

In no time, Simon got back to her. His message read, “Thank you. I’ll treat you to a meal if it works out.” 

Millie: “No need to thank me.” 

Jake, on the other hand, was still texting her. “Mills, let’s have a meal together. I have something to discuss with you.” 

Jake: “Mills, although you and Winston are divorced, I think…” 

However, Millie could not be bothered to read the rest of his message. She set her phone to “Do Not Disturb and got to work. 

Jake couldn’t help but feel frustrated. Rachel’s rejection was hard to take, especially when Simon could easily reach her because of Millie’s friendship with her 

Suddenly, it dawned on him that he should go through Millie if he wanted to work with Rachel. 

“Millie,” Lainey suddenly called out. 

Millie nodded in response. “Yes?” 

Come with me to the outpatient clinic today.” 

“Coming.” Millie hurriedly put on her white coat and followed Lainey. As they took the elevator to head 

down, she overheard several department heads greeting Lainey.

“Dr. Quinn, we heard the deputy chief position is now vacant.” 

Lainey, unusually cheerful, teased, “What’s the matter? Are you guys planning to jump ship?” 

“Oh no, we’re not going anywhere. The others chuckled and remarked, “The cardiac surgery department is so exhausting.” 

“There’s no department that isn’t exhausting.” Lainey replied lightly, glancing at her phone. 

Meanwhile, Millie stood behind them. She quietly listened to their conversation without uttering a single 

word. 

“So, do you have any suitable candidates for promotion?” one of the department heads asked. 

Lainey responded, “Not at the moment. I’ll have to observe for another month.” 

“I think Vanessa is quite promising. Maybe you can consider promoting her.” 

Lainey jested, “Wow, Dr. Lane, it looks like you’re quite familiar with our department.” 

The group laughed and then exited the elevator. 

Millie trailed behind Lainey, who suddenly asked, “What do you think of Vanessa?”
