The Wrong Woman Chapter 214
Nathan walked into the study. He invited Loretta to sit on the lounge chair and began seriously questioning her."Have you seen Chubs at all during the ten years she was abroad, Madam Hoffis?""No," she replied. "She was extremely occupied with her studies and had no time to return to the country. But we do talk on the phone.""What about video calls?""Those were quite rare.""At what point did you notice that she looked a bit different?"Loretta was puzzled by his questioning. She nervously sat closer to him and asked, "Why are you asking me all this?"He pursed his lips and thought for a moment. "Just answer me truthfully. I want to know more about Chubs."Upon hearing that he was interested in her granddaughter, she was overjoyed and began telling him everything."It was probably three years ago. We hadn't made a video call to her in a year or two. When we finally did, her chubby face was so much thinner. Her grandfather and I were so heartbroken."She continued, "But she
The Wrong Woman Chapter 215
If he revealed her identity before they apprehended Oliver and the imposter, she'd be in even more danger as the sole heir to the Hoffis family.Nathan was curious. What on earth did Chubs work as? What job could possibly require her to discreetly shift nationalities and not contact her family for ten months in a year? She couldn't even return to the country for ten years."Madam Hoffis, what did Chubs use to work as?"She smiled at him. "Aren't you constantly with her? Why don't you just ask her?"Nathan shot her an awkward smile in return. "She wouldn't tell me.""It wasn't just me—not even her uncle or her parents knew what she was doing," she sighed. "The pay was low, and all she did was just work tirelessly. But one thing for certain, she worked for the Sunterland government."Working for the government and being so private about it? The only occupation he could think of was the one Daniel had—an undercover agent. But it didn't quite seem that way, either.After a few s

"What?""Let's divorce."Nathan's expression darkened, and his demeanor turned icy. He slowly approached Suzanne. He got so near that she nervously stepped back."I don't have time for divorce," he said. "I'll only have time if you ask something else."Suzanne scoffed angrily. She scowled and glared at him. "Why didn't I realize you were so untrustworthy earlier? We would have divorced if Lucas hadn't been in danger the last time! It's been just a few days. Why are you changing your mind?"Nathan peered into Suzanne's reddened eyes, suppressing the intense love deep in his heart. He said calmly, "I did change my mind. If you want a divorce, you need to restore your memory swiftly."If you still don't want to be my wife after regaining your memory, we'll divorce. If you still want to be my wife while you have memories, then we…"Then they divorced. Nathan didn't finish this sentence. He paused before murmuring, "Then we'll continue to be husband and wife."She clenched her fists

Nathan didn't hesitate and said, "I want you.""Me?" Suzanne was stunned. As soon as her fury sprang up, he extinguished it.She looked at him in disbelief. Did she hear or understand incorrectly?His tone was sincere, and his deep eyes were scorching. "I refuse to divorce because what I want is you."She stood frozen, her heart racing. Her breathing was erratic, and she was shocked and overwhelmed.She blushed and spoke hesitantly, "You… Do you know what you're saying? Would you dare to repeat it in front of Sally? Don't you think what you said was ridiculous?"Nathan frowned, his tone becoming more serious. "I dare to say it, regardless of who it is. I don't want to divorce you. I want to be with you. Why do you think it's ridiculous?"Suzanne was perplexed after hearing his straightforward words and couldn't think clearly. She wasn't sure if he liked her, but she was confident he still loved Sally.She took a deep breath, suppressing her excitement, and said calmly and sarca

Enrage Nathan and let him beat her? Wasn't that essentially a death wish? Suzanne became pale and shook her head. "I don't think I can do that. If he punches me, I'll die.""If he hasn't cheated, committed domestic abuse, or been involved in drugs, you can't file for divorce," Lana said. "If you go to court, your divorce will be dismissed. There won't even be a hearing."Suzanne clenched her fists in annoyance. "You told me before that I could file for divorce.""That's when you told me that he had another woman. I thought you had evidence."She was tired and realized she had gone too far, so she hastily apologized, "I'm sorry. I wasn't clear before. I'm going to find evidence right now.""Be careful.""Thanks."Suzanne hung up and slumped back in her seat, sighing.She changed subway at the station, returning to the Morrison Residence half an hour later. As soon as she walked into Morrison Residence, she met Duke and Layla, who were moving back in. Gary and Florence were s

Nathan moved closer to Suzanne, whispering, "You didn't leave?"She pretended to be calm. "I left and then came back.""Did you forget to get your book?"Suzanne grew outraged because she thought he was a scumbag, but she couldn't stop herself from being inexplicably attracted to him.She responded aggressively, "I'm not taking it!""Hmm." Nathan appeared to be standing calmly, but beneath his dignified and composed demeanor, his heart was in turmoil, restless and uneasy.She plucked up the courage to ask, "Are you planning to stay home for a few more days or return to the military base?"He frowned slightly. "Why did you ask?"It was impossible for her to gather evidence of his infidelity or to provoke him into domestic abuse, but getting closer to him would make it easier. "I want to follow you," Suzanne said.Nathan paused and stared at her intently. Her attitude abruptly shifted, which made him feel a little gratified.He swallowed nervously and exhaled softly. "I won't

Suzanne had no idea why she was so nervous about sharing a bed with him. It wasn't their first time sleeping in the same bed.Nathan noticed her coldness and decided not to disturb her. He copied her, resting his back against a pillow and leaning against the headboard while reading a book.A cozy silence settled in the bedroom. The cold lights shone bright. The couple read quietly without disturbing the peace of one another.Though they were staring at words, they were acutely attuned to each other's emotions and responses all the time. The sounds of the flipping pages became quite pronounced as a result.Suzanne couldn't stand the awkwardness anymore. She raised her head and looked at Nathan. Their eyes met as she was about to speak, and her heart skipped a beat. Then, it started to race.She wondered, "Why is he looking at me instead of reading his book?"He shifted his gaze and returned to reading, pretending to be calm."Are you… going to sleep?" She stumbled over her words
The Wrong Woman Chapter 221
Suzanne had hoped to uncover incriminating evidence on Nathan's phone, but all she discovered were photos of his latest weapon designs. Browsing through his WhatsApp, she found that he had blocked Sally a month ago. However, he retained Sally's contact number with her surname as the display name.Wrapped in a blanket, Suzanne sighed in frustration at the lack of evidence. Suddenly, she noticed Nathan had saved her contact as "Honey" in his phone. Upon double-checking, she confirmed the endearing nickname. Filled with surprise, Suzanne cradled the phone against her chest as her heart raced with delight. Carefully, she placed it back on the table, unaware that Nathan was stirred awake by her movements. Nathan caught a whiff of Suzanne's enticing scent and instinctively swallowed hard. He feigned sleep until Suzanne settled back onto the bed. After some time, he opened his eyes in the darkness and stole a glance at Suzanne, who lay peacefully beside him.Nathan observed her in the

Jasper became concerned as Imogen placed her hand over her heart. He asked, "Are you experiencing any chest pains? Have you consulted a doctor? I can take you for a check-up."Imogen reassured him, gently holding his arm. "Jasper, I'm fine. I'm just trying to figure out how to balance my future family and career."Jasper smiled knowingly, gently patting her head before pulling her into an embrace. He recognized her uniqueness—her drive to pursue her career and showcase her skills and talents. The thought of being a stay-at-home mother or merely a trophy wife held no appeal for her whatsoever.Holding her close, Jasper murmured, "Imogen, have you forgotten about your husband's financial prowess?"Imogen couldn't suppress a chuckle.Jasper reassured her of his commitment, "As long as you're on board, I can arrange a driver to drive you to work, an assistant to handle all your tasks, and you won't have to worry about anything. When you return home, there will be maids and me to ens

After returning from her journey across the globe, Imogen headed straight to the hospital. During her travels, she started noticing subtle changes in her body—nausea, fatigue, and a stronger need for rest. Her hunch was confirmed when tests revealed she was pregnant.She felt a blend of anticipation and apprehension. The idea of being pregnant raised thoughts of focusing on family life and raising children. Yet, she valued her career and was steadily demonstrating her skills. She wasn't ready to give it up just yet.When Imogen arrived home and stepped through the front door, she found Gregory and Carol were there. They had just returned from their trip as well, bringing back gifts. "Hi, Mom, Dad," Imogen greeted them.Still excited about their travels, Gregory and Carol eagerly recounted their adventures to Jasper.When Jasper heard Imogen's voice, he quickly stood and walked over to her, taking her hand. "Imogen, I woke up early and didn't see you around. Where did you go?"
The Wrong Woman Chapter 1086
Jasper thought the idea was brilliant and agreed, "Let's plan our route and leave next week."Imogen gently pushed him back, her hands on his chest. "Sure, but let me get up first. We'll map out our journey, set a schedule, and go on a trip for our wedding."Jasper took her wrists and lifted them above the pillow. "Let's discuss this tomorrow. I have some pressing matters to attend to at the moment."Imogen was about to respond when Jasper leaned in and kissed her deeply. Their lips intertwined with passion.…A week later, Imogen received another call from Yulia's lawyer, who conveyed Yulia's apologies and expressed her desire for Imogen's forgiveness. Yulia also requested Imogen to intervene with Nathan on her behalf.Imogen decided to ignore the request. She believed in the fairness of the law. It reminded her of Zoey, who had fraudulently claimed her degree and ended up in prison at Jasper's behest.As for Yulia, she had orchestrated attacks on Gregory, caused Carol to lose

Imogen's heart raced as she slowly hugged Jasper, her voice bashful yet resolute. "Jasper, you'll always have a place in my heart."Jasper tensed slightly, his senses on high alert. He met her eyes. A glint of anticipation sparked in his gaze as he eagerly murmured, "Say it one more time. Say it—""I love you, Jasper," Imogen said gently.Jasper's eyes immediately filled with tears as he held Imogen tightly, his body shaking. Overwhelmed by emotion, he could only whisper her name into her ear. "Imogen… Imogen…""Do you love me?" Imogen asked, her voice tinged with shyness.Jasper frowned. "I do love you. Haven't you always known?""I still want to hear it," Imogen said."I love you. I love you with all my heart," Jasper declared, gazing at her with intense passion and unwavering resolve.Feeling a bit stiff from his tight hug, Imogen gently pushed him away. "I love you, too, but I must get up and go to work.""Not today," Jasper responded, scooping and carrying her back to bed

"If it's a gift, why not accept it?" Mila whispered.Gregory quickly took the check, looking unsure of his next move.Once his money was accepted, Oakley assumed the issue was settled. He took Yulia's hand and began to leave the ward, saying, "Well, I'll leave with Yulia for now."Still feeling resentful, Yulia glanced back and shot Imogen a glare as they departed.The ward fell silent. Feeling uneasy, Gregory and Carol exchanged anxious glances."Nate, we can't go easy on them," Mila whispered.Nathan smiled knowingly. He took Mila's hand, gently caressed it, and said quietly, "Don't worry. I'll ensure our in-laws get the justice they deserve."Mila nodded, feeling reassured. Gregory and Carol, who were listening nearby, felt deeply moved and grateful.Since Gregory was injured and confined to bed, the meeting between Jasper's and Imogen's parents ended earlier than expected. After saying goodbye to their parents, Jasper and Imogen headed home. On their way home, Jasper felt

Yulia was renowned for her boldness and strong-willed nature. Aware of Oakley's wealth, influence, and dual reputation in legal and illicit circles, she feared no one and held a contemptuous attitude toward others, including senior military figures."You need to apologize to Ms. Imogen immediately," Oakley whispered urgently.Pointing at Imogen, Yulia muttered irritably, "Her? Oh, please! If anyone owes an apology, it's her to me."Oakley wiped his forehead nervously, trembling with anxiety. Everyone's expressions around them darkened visibly. Jasper suppressed his anger; his hands clenched into fists.Before he could speak, Yulia grumbled, "Jay, you blocked me before understanding everything, and then you terminated our contract. That's just too much."Mila couldn't shake her worry for Jasper. If he couldn't manage his relationship with Yulia appropriately, it could severely impact his marriage. Concerned that he might not handle it well, Mila intervened. "Ms. Gibson, please resp

Carol no longer believed the portrayal of wealthy women on television.Jasper took Imogen's hand, and they sat down on the couch together, feeling anxious. It was their parents' first meeting, and the hospital setting added to the tension. If things went wrong and their relationship soured, their future would look bleak.Imogen was particularly anxious. Her palms were growing clammy. Jasper pulled out a tissue and gently wiped her palms before reassuringly saying, "There's no need to be nervous. My parents are easygoing."Offering an awkward smile, Imogen teased him, whispering, "You seem more nervous than I am, don't you think?"Jasper chuckled but offered no reply. Dealing with Gregory and Carol was sure to be a bit daunting.Typically reserved around strangers, Nathan found it difficult to start a conversation at that moment. Meanwhile, Gregory and Carol felt apprehensive and cautious, worried that any misstep could upset the Morrisons and cause problems for Imogen.Sensing th

Mila approached them with a bouquet, smiling. "Yes, we're in the right place. We've come to visit you, our in-laws."The term "in-laws" caught Gregory off guard as he lay in the bed. Despite his injuries, he quickly propped himself up, struggling to sit upright. Carol, equally surprised, cautiously accepted the gift from Nathan's outstretched hands.Jasper and Imogen took the next elevator, so they hadn't reached the ward yet.Nathan quickly set his things down and hurried over, gently placing a reassuring hand on Gregory's shoulder. "You're injured. Don't get up. Just lie down and rest.""General Morrison, I…" Gregory's voice faltered in distress.Carol's hands trembled uncontrollably as she glanced nervously at Mila, worried that Mila and Nathan had overheard her argument with Gregory.Nathan spoke in a gentle tone, "Please, don't call me General Morrison. It sounds too formal. You both are older than me. Just call me Nathan, and I'll call you two by name in return."Mila came

In the hospital ward, Gregory had been asleep for over an hour when the nurse woke him to change his medication.After the change, Carol peeled an orange for him to eat. They shared the segments, chatting idly."Imogen really picked a good husband. Even these oranges he bought are unusually sweet," Carol said, marveling at the oranges. Gregory glanced at the orange and said, "They must be expensive.""Yes, they're sold by the piece in big supermarkets. Also, they're more expensive than beef and lamb," Carol said before eating another sweet segment.Gregory pondered for a moment. Then he curiously asked, "Someone ruined our house's floor. Do you think Jasper would help us repair it?"Carol shot him a look and replied, "Listen, don't burden Imogen with this. Don't even bring it up.""Why would it burden Imogen? With Jasper's wealth, this is nothing.""Enough," Carol snapped. "That's his business. No matter how poor we are, we shouldn't ask for what isn't ours." "You're too stu
