"Thanks for dropping me off." As soon as the car rolled to a stop, Suzanne said her thanks and got out quickly with her purchases. She slammed the car door behind her and strode over to a shabby house.There were two ruffians smoking in front of the house.Nathan could tell at a glance that Suzanne's destination wasn't typical. The ruffians outside were clearly standing guard.He told the driver to call for backup before getting out of the car and following Suzanne.The two ruffians seemed to know Suzanne. They let her in easily but stopped Nathan when he tried to follow.Nathan pointed at the door. "That woman you just let in is my wife. Let me in with her."One of the ruffians smirked. "Samuel's sister is your wife? You'd have better luck telling me I'm your fucking father, mate."Nathan had no desire to keep the conversation civil; he knew that people like these only answered to violence.Eyes darkening, he clenched his fists and struck quickly.His powerful blow struck the

Nathan had never thought that Suzanne could be so ruthless. She'd always seemed so gentle and soft-spoken.Before Suzanne could say anything, a ruffian rushed in and pointed at Nathan. "Boss, that's him, he's here to cause trouble! He knocked Harry out and punched me!"Within seconds, Nathan was surrounded by several bouncers, who were all staring at him murderously.This was an illegal casino, so they only let in familiar clients. Everyone else in the casino was wary of Nathan, as he was a stranger."Why did you knock out my men and force your way in?" the manager of the casino demanded.Suzanne bravely put herself in front of Nathan. She faced the manager. "Jim, he's my friend."Jim snorted. "You came here and beat up your brother without a care about the other patrons. You disrupted my business. That's all fine and dandy, but this is a different matter. Your friend beat up my men."Suzanne was afraid that Nathan wouldn't be able to fight all of the bouncers in the casino. "I'

The group of hooligans picked up their weapons and rushed at Nathan. Suzanne felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest. She wanted to run over and take some hits for him. Nathan was completely unfazed. He drew his gun calmly and pointed it at Jim. Jim's face paled instantly, and he started to tremble. He quickly shouted, "Stop! Don't take another step."The rest of the gamblers scattered when they saw the gun. No one dared to stay around any longer. In Norvania, only powerful people were allowed to carry guns legally. These weren't the people they would want to cross. Suzanne sighed in relief when she saw Nathan pull out a gun. So, that was why he was so calm. He had a gun on him.Jim smiled obsequiously and said, "Sir, I was being presumptuous. You … may leave. I … I don't want the money anymore."Suddenly, a commotion could be heard outside. Nathan looked at the time on his watch. Ten minutes had just passed. His subordinates were very punctual. Nathan p

Nathan was stunned. He looked into Suzanne's bright, round eyes. Tears were welling up in her eyes. He felt a sense of unfamiliarity. At the same time, he didn't understand why she was upset. So, he felt a little irritated. "What's wrong?"Suzanne turned away from him and quickly wiped away the tears. She calmed herself down and said, "It's evening right now. All of your family members should be at home. I'll head in first. Stand at the door and listen to what happens."She stepped out of the car after she said that. She walked into the house without waiting for Nathan. As soon as she walked in, Suzanne met the butler, Edgar. Edgar was about 50 years old. He was very stoic and quick-witted. He quickly snapped back to his senses after his initial shock."Welcome, Mrs. Morrison. You're just in time. Dinner is about to start," Edgar said politely. Suzanne could tell Edgar was only polite to her because of his professional ethics. Everyone in the household was prejudiced aga

Suzanne knew that Nathan had entered the house. Nathan was the youngest among his siblings, but his authority was apparent. Everyone feared and respected him. Even his parents had to listen to him. Suddenly, his parents stood up excitedly and walked toward him with smiles on their faces. They casually walked past Suzanne. His father, Gary Morrison, said joyfully, "Nate, you've finally found the time to come home!"His mother, Florence Lowe, was also filled with joy. "Let me get a good look at you, Nate. Have you gotten slimmer this past month?"Nathan slowly pushed away Florence's hands, which were cupping his face. "Since you're back, at least stay for a few days." Florence could sense that Nathan was unhappy.Nathan completely ignored his parents' words. He glanced at the people in the living room coldly. He yelled at his siblings and their partners. "Whose appetite did my wife upset? Whose house did she stain?" His wife? Suzanne trembled. She was shocked and moved by

The car ride lasted an hour. Nathan brought Suzanne to the entrance of Imperial Heights. It was a villa area where the most important people of Norvania lived, such as the country's leaders, generals, officials, scientists, engineers, astronauts, or key people under protection.Nathan stopped the car. Then, he told Suzanne, "Get out of the car first."Suzanne was shocked as she looked at the words "Imperial Heights" carved on the entrance. She finally realized that Nathan had brought her to a place where normal people would never be able to enter. She started to feel nervous. Then, she unbuckled the seatbelt, got out of the car, and walked over to Nathan's side.Two soldiers who were on guard duty approached them. One of them took the ID that Nathan handed them and glanced at it.Then, they saluted him. "Good day to you, General Morrison."Nathan nodded. The soldiers took out some advanced scanning technology and checked the car. After the scan, they gestured for Nathan

"Mr. President, this is my wife, Suzanne."The president of Norvania, Donald Tacker, was a middle-aged man in his fifties. His eyes held a kind twinkle, which made him look friendly and amiable.Suzanne was taken aback by Nathan's easy introduction.
