She's out of Your League Now (Millie and Winston) novel Chapter 275

Chapter 275 

The man gazed upwards and caught sight of Millie and Rachel. 

“It’s Jake.” Millie was surprised. 

Jake greeted them with a wave and a smile. “Hi” 

Rachel gave Jake a subtle nod as a greeting. 

Jake glanced at Rachel, unable to resist studying her momentarily before diverting his gaze. 

“Mr. Webson, do you usually attend this type of party as well?” Millie asked curiously. 

“Oh, I don’t usually attend, but I have something to take care of today,” Jake explained with a cheerful smile. 

Millie didn’t want to ask further, but he immediately added, “I came here for a celebrity. I need to discuss a business with her.” 

Millie nodded with a smile. “I see. That celebrity must be very lucky. It’s amazing to have the opportunity to work with Mr. Webson.” 

Rachel also smiled and said faintly, “All the best.” 

He raised an eyebrow, with a smile growing in his eyes. “I hope so.” 

After that, Jake left to continue working. 

Millie and Rachel watched as Jake left, crossing their arms. Millie commented, “The celebrity who is personally invited by Mr. Webson must be truly extraordinary.” 

Rachel also agreed. “I’ve heard that it’s challenging to collaborate on projects with the Webson Group. Despite Jake’s playful nature, he has a discerning eye. He doesn’t appreciate the average female celebrity.” 

“Is that so?” Millie asked. 

Rachel hummed in response and replied, “He’s also very picky. He dislikes celebrities who are too popular. I’ve been in the industry for many years, but I’ve never once been Webson Group’s endorser.” 

In recent years, whenever Rachel came across an endorsement for Webson Group’s products, she couldn’t help but scoff dismissively. Furthermore, Jake happened to be Winston’s close friend, which made Rachel’s dislike for him grow even stronger. 

“Are there endorsements that you can’t get?” Millie was surprised. 

Rachel spread her hands, confirming her statement. 

Millie snorted. She held Rachel’s arm and asked, “Tsk. Jake has bad taste. It’s his loss. But

what if he offers you à contract now?” 

“If he begs me sincerely, I’ll consider it,” Rachel replied arrogantly. 

Millie burst out laughing. 

“Oh please, I’m just kidding! It’s not as grave as it seems, but I simply won’t collaborate with him,” said Rachel. 

Anyway, Jake wouldn’t hire Rachel for sure. In summary, they simply have a mutual dislike for each other. 

“If Mr. Webson realizes how exceptional you are one day, he might come looking for you, superstar.” 

“Please don’t come to me. Otherwise, I’ll still need to figure out how to reject him.” 

They locked eyes and burst into laughter. 

“Rach, it’s time for us to go in,” Rachel’s manager urged. 

Rachel nodded instantly and bid farewell to Millie, assuring her they would catch up in the hall later. Millie watched as Rachel left. When she was about to look for Thomas, she spotted a familiar figure entering. 

Winston walked in with a group of six or seven people dressed in black suits. They all surrounded him with respect. 

He listened to a woman speaking while wearing a serious expression. Two bodyguards with headsets followed closely behind, escorting him. 

Millie sighed and wondered why Winston came to the event. Didn’t he hate this kind of party? Just as Millie was about to turn around and walk away from him, Winston looked up. 

They gazed at each other, and a palpable sense of unease filled the air. His subordinates immediately stopped discussing work and turned their gaze toward the direction Winston was looking at. 

Rumors had been circulating about Winston and Millie’s divorce, but Winston hadn’t confirmed it himself. They wondered whether they should address Millie as Ms. Caldwell or Mrs: Greer. The atmosphere grew even more awkward. 

After a brief silence, Winston nodded subtly at Millie. He sought to avoid unnecessary awkwardness, hoping she would do the same. 

Millie noticed his intention and also nodded in response. After that, she walked away. He continued to watch Millie as she left.
