"Norvania.""Holy shit, I like her." The bald man stood up and couldn't wait to put his hands on her. Before he got out of his seat, a huge hand suddenly pressed on his shoulder. "I quite like this woman, Mick. Why not let me have her?"Suzanne looked toward the man and froze in shock.The man had refined and handsome features and a tall build. He was dressed in a cool black outfit. He even looked a bit like Nathan Morrison. "I thought you were impotent, Daniel? There are tons of women who serve you, and you don't even spare them a single glance. Why are you so into this one?"Daniel smiled shallowly. "I'm perfectly normal. I just haven't met a woman I actually like."Mick, the bald man, smiled and patted him on the shoulder. "Alright, I'll hand her to you when I'm done with her."Daniel stood up promptly and insisted, unwavering, "I've never asked you for anything, Mick. I actually quite like her and can't wait any longer. Could you let me go first?"Daniel was never one
Suzanne was dumbfounded. Daniel's face fell. "Can't recognize me anymore 'cause I've gotten more handsome?"Her heart shuddered, and she shook her head. He pinched her round cheeks in one swift motion. "My name is Daniel."She shook her head again.The man sighed and sat up. He rubbed her head and said softly, "Don't be afraid. With me around, nothing will happen to you.""Do we know each other?" she asked.He shot her a bitter smile. "It's bad enough that you forgot what I look like, but you don't even remember my name? You heartless thing."She sat up abruptly. Her vision was blurred from her tears. "I lost my memory three years ago. Do you know me? Please tell me who I am."He looked at her quizzically. From how lost and nervous she looked, he could tell she truly didn't remember. "Aren't you Hoffis? Sally Hoffis? Nate calls you Chubs."Suzanne stared at him in shock for a while before shaking her head again. "I don't know who I am," she said. "But I'm not Sally Hoffis
After two hours, Daniel opened the door.A couple of men with guns stood there."Not bad, Daniel. Is the woman still standing after being in there for so long?" one of them teased.He shot him a shallow smile. "What are you guys doing here?""Mick had us come over to see if you're finished with her. If you are, we'll bring her over to his room."His face darkened slightly. He looked back at the room and said, "I'll bring her myself.""Alright," the two said in unison.Daniel was deep in thought for a moment before he turned and walked back in. He then came out with Suzanne in tow, yanking her roughly by the arm.Suzanne's hair was tousled, and her clothes were disheveled. She lifted her head and glanced at the sky toward Norvania in fear.She didn't know if she could rely on Daniel to make it out of there alive. She'd only hoped that Nathan got the message and was looking for ways to save her.In front of the wooden house, Mick's eyes glistened at the sight of Daniel dragging
Daniel felt extremely uneasy. He didn't think she would be able to get this done when someone with more than ten years worth of experience in drug-making couldn't. He only wished she could drag out the time for as long as possible."The impure mixture contains sodium and a substance similar to rubidium," she said in a low voice as she continued her research. "However, rubidium can't come in contact with air or water, or it'll explode. "This is the first time I've encountered such a strange new element. Give me some time. Let me figure this out."No one understood a word she said and looked at her skeptically.Suzanne noticed their doubtful glances, as well as the unfriendly and perverted gazes that were directed at her body. She knew that she needed something to prove herself, or these people would never believe her.She picked up some of the powder and placed it in a bottle. Then, she added a certain substance to the mixture and placed it over a fire. She was swift and skilled w
Muzat forces were evidently formidable. That was why it was difficult to breach. Suzanne didn't dare to let down her guard.All of a sudden, the door to the room was pushed open. Upon hearing the loud noise, she gripped the pistol tightly, and her body stiffened. Her heart rate spiked, and cold sweat ran down her back. She perked her ears and listened as the footsteps drew near. "Suzanne."She heard the sound of a calm and light voice. Her hand on the pistol trembled. She assumed she was hearing things due to her anxiety, and she tried to calm her erratic breathing."Suzanne." Nathan's voice rang out once again. This time, she was certain she wasn't hearing things. She promptly pushed the closet door open and was met with a familiar shadow of a man. The moonlight streamed in through the window, and she could vaguely make out the outlines of his face.All of Nathan's fears and worries dissipated as soon as he saw the woman hiding in the closet. He was extremely relieved.
Suzanne cast several backward glances as she walked. She felt at ease watching the drugs in the warehouse get engulfed by the flames.All of the drug traffickers were headed this way once they noticed the building on fire. The pair passed through the forest and reached the country's border—it was the edge of a bottomless cliff.Under the bright moonlight, the drug traffickers were still engaged in a gunfight a few miles away. There was a blazing drug nest in front of them and a cliff behind. Looking at Nathan in disbelief, she asked, "Did you climb up from here?"Nathan didn't reply. He surveyed his surroundings and brought her behind a huge rock, motioning for her to crouch down. He fished a flare gun from his pocket and handed it to her. "Half an hour from now, a helicopter will come for you. When you see it hovering above you, fire the flare gun. Someone will come for you.""Where are you going?" Suzanne asked, holding onto his hand with worry. He glanced determinedl
The rescue helicopter found Suzanne without a problem and transported her safely back to the Norvanian military.She didn't sleep a wink that night. After waiting anxiously the entire night, there was still no news of Nathan returning. She grew more worried and restless as time passed by. She waited agonizingly while praying for his safe return.When daybreak came, Suzanne sat hugging her knees at the main door. She stared at the wide road ahead with teary eyes, hoping to catch a glimpse of the man.As Cole watched her, he felt like her worry was laced with love. He didn't understand why she was so adamant about getting a divorce. He approached her and said, "You haven't had anything to eat for the entire day, Mrs. Morrison."The woman's gaze was fixated somewhere in the distance. Her eyes were damp. She suppressed the agonizing feeling in her chest and shook her head."I'm not hungry." "You don't need to worry, Mrs. Morrison. The general will be fine."Sniffling, she lifte
Suzanne nodded with a serious expression and committed the doctor's words to memory.After cleaning up and leaving some further instructions, he left the room. Suzanne stood frozen in place while she scanned his injuries, her heart breaking. Her expression looked grim. She hadn't said anything since she entered the room and only looked extremely guilt-ridden.Upon noticing this, Nathan reassured her, "Don't worry, I've gotten injured more than I can keep count. This is child's play." The way he brushed it off only made her heart ache more. His previous injury was a bullet that almost grazed his heart. How could he be so relaxed when one small mishap could cost him his life?This time, he was covered in cuts. She couldn't possibly imagine how much danger he'd been through all these years.He frowned, his heart clenched at the sight of her looking upset. "Why can't you stop your tears? Are you worried about me?" he asked. She immediately turned her back to him and hastily wipe
