After speaking, Winnie ran off.

Jamie didn't chase her.

She understood that Winnie couldn't accept this, and if their roles were reversed, neither could she.

Right now, she had to find Mrs. Lucas.

She flagged down a taxi and directed it to the Lucas family estate.

It was her second time coming here.

The first time had been by Mrs. Lucas's invitation, a meeting designed to show her the opulence of the Lucas family estate and to offer her a million to leave Ben. Jamie had sworn then that she would never set foot there again. But today, she was here for Winnie.

At the gate, the security guard stopped her. "Who are you?"

"My name is Jamie Lewis," she said calmly. "Tell Mrs. Lucas I'm here to see her. She'll agree to meet me."

Jamie hadn't chased after Winnie because she wanted to give her some time to process everything. But she couldn't leave Winnie alone for too long. Time was of the essence.

Seeing her composure, the security guard decided to pass along the message.
