Winston grabbed Millie’s wrist and spun her around, pressing her against the wall. As he did, he noticed the butterfly tattoo on her back.

Suddenly, a blurred image of a woman flashed through his mind, overwhelming him with a surge of emotion. He found himself struggling to catch his breath. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Pinned against the wall, Millie glared at Winston, fighting and cursing. “Let me go!”

Winston felt extremely uneasy when he spotted her butterfly tattoo. Tightening his grip, he demanded, How did you get this injury?”

Millie warned him sternly. “Release me, or I’ll hit you.”

Winston couldn’t help but glance up at Millie. His thick, long eyelashes framed his eyes. In the softly lit bathroom, his silhouette appeared slightly blurred.

“Answer me!” he shouted.

Millie looked away, embarrassed by how he gripped her arm and restrained her.

Winston was anxious, convinced that there was something behind Millie’s injury. He wondered if it was possible for two women to have the same injury.

Millie had once mentioned that she fell on a vase and got injured when she was a child. Despite not paying much attention to her in recent years, he remembered how she loved wearing pretty dresses in high school. Back then, she had no visible injuries on her body.

The prisoner claimed that Joanna was the one who saved him, but Millie had never visited him during his time in the hospital.

Winston frowned, unconsciously letting go of Millie. She shifted her gaze back to him.

Winston’s eyes were filled with a complex array of emotions as he replied slowly, “It’s just a coincidence.”

Millie rubbed her sore wrist, still feeling the ache from his grip.

Joanna cried and asked, “Win, did I do something wrong?”

She had just been outside and overheard Winston and Millie’s conversation. It became apparent that

“Win, I…” Joanna was about to speak overcome by dizziness and collapsed to the floor.

Winston rushed forward immediately. “Jo!”

Millie watched as Winston anxiously picked Joanna up and left. She quietly followed them, watching as they entered the elevator.

Winston locked eyes with Millie, whose indifference shone through her gaze. He seemed to have something to say.

Millie gave a slight, tense smile. As the elevator door closed, she lowered her head and shook it with a bitter smile.

“When did Joanna become so weak?” Simon asked.

Millie gazed into Simon’s captivating eyes as he held her bag. She considered Simon’s question carefully.
