She's out of Your League Now (Millie and Winston) novel Chapter 414

Chapter 414 

Winston was about to offer to buy the bag for Joanna. 

At that moment, the sales associate informed Joanna, “Sorry, Ms. Lowell, but Ms. Caldwell has already bought this bag. This is the only one we have.” 

Joanna frowned when she heard that. Millie, on the other hand, pursed her lips. She couldn’t help but find the situation amusing. Their shared tastes in dresses, bags, and men were just infuriating. 

“I’m sorry, but this bag is mine,” Millie said with a gentle smile. 

Joanna’s frown deepened when she caught a hint of smugness in Millie’s eyes. She tightened her hold on Winston’s arm. It was merely a bag. What was there to boast about? After all, she had Winston. 

Seeing Joanna’s hand tightly gripping Winston’s arm, Millie felt a wave of conflicted emotions. She had gained everything, yet she had lost the man she loved. She couldn’t tell if her situation was a victory or a defeat. 

The more Joanna looked at Millie, the more irritated she grew. 

“Ms. Caldwell, your bag is ready,” the sales associate announced. 

Millie nodded in acknowledgment. Just as she was about to pay for it, Winston stepped forward and offered, “I’ll handle it.” 

Millie’s hand, which was about to hand over her credit card, was abruptly stopped. She looked up to see Winston presenting his black card instead. 

After a brief pause, she glanced back instinctively. Joanna’s expression had turned as dark as it could possibly be. 

Joanna clenched her right hand into a fist, baffled by Winston’s decision to pay for Millie. He even pushed her hand away to make the payment. 

She bit her lip, suppressed her dissatisfaction, and approached Winston. Smiling at Millie, she remarked, ” Win is giving this to you, so you should accept it. You were once married to him, after all.” 

Millie narrowed her eyes, while Joanna continued, “Even though you’re divorced, you’re still friends. It’s nothing for Win to give you two bags. Don’t be pressured, Millie.” 

Millie said nothing. 

Winston frowned slightly and commented in a low voice, “There’s nothing more to it. Don’t overthink.” 

Joanna immediately held onto Winston’s arm, her displeasure written on her face. She tried to establish her dominance as his future wife, but it was obvious he wasn’t backing her up.
