The Wrong Woman Chapter 283
Mila thought it would be pointless to tell Phoebe. She decided to phone Cole. She switched on the speakerphone and put her phone on the table. Then, she helped Nathan to wipe the sweat from his forehead with a tissue."Hello." Cole sounded groggy, as if he hadn't quite woken up."Cole, it's me, Suzanne.""I saw the caller ID. Why are you calling at 3:00 am?""Has Nate been sick?""Yes, he's been sick for days. He refuses to go to the doctor, won't take his medicine, and has been working non-stop. Lucas and I tried to convince him, but he wouldn't listen.""He passed out at my place. What should we do?" Mila kneeled next to Nathan and touched his forehead."General Morrison has gone to Hoffis Manor to look for you?" Cole exclaimed."Yes." Mila felt her heart bleed when she saw how exhausted Nathan looked.Cole slapped himself on the thigh. "This is far too impulsive. General Morrison doesn't usually act this way. Why would he be losing it when he's with you?""I'm sorry, Col

Mila choked up as she whispered, "Nathan, please be okay. Please be fine." She bit her lip. Tears were trickling down to the corners of her mouth and her chin. She could feel the saltiness of it all.Having calmed herself, Mila brushed her tears away with both hands. She quickly got out of bed and went to the bathroom, where she grabbed a damp towel to wipe off the sweat from Nathan's body.Whether it was due to the medication or the fever, Nathan was starting to sweat a lot. Every few minutes, Mila would touch him on his forehead and wipe the sweat off of him. Half an hour later, his clothes were soaked to the skin, and his temperature was beginning to return to normal.Mila paced around the room with her phone. Now and then she checked Cole's number and looked at the time on the wall. It was 5:00 a.m. Though it was still dark outside, the housekeeper at Hoffis Manor had probably already started working. Cole would be easily spotted if he came around now.After much thought, Mil

"I..." Mila blushed and couldn't say a word.Nathan looked drowsy. It wasn't long before he closed his eyes again, but he lifted his hips and allowed Mila to pull his pants down to his thighs. After a deep breath, she looked up and asked, "Nate, are you awake?"He was still asleep. After a moment's hesitation, Mila pulled his pants off. Then, she quickly wiped his body down with a wet towel. She continued to wipe him down three or four times until his temperature had cooled down completely.About an hour later, Mila fed Nathan some cold medicine by mouth. She had stayed up all night tending to him. When daylight came, she fell asleep on the bed from exhaustion.…A clap of thunder awoke Nathan from his sleep. He struggled to open his eyes and turned his head to the balcony window. Only then did he realize that a thunderstorm was raging outside.The clock on the wall read 10:30 am. After scanning the room, Nathan remembered passing out and realized he was still in Hoffis Manor.

Mila blushed and explained, "Because he was sick, and his sweat soaked his clothes."Phoebe grinned mischievously. "Oh? Is that so?"Mila grew more flustered as she explained, "Y-Yes, obviously. Plus, we were married. I've seen him with his clothes off, and it's nothing."As Mila brought up their marriage, Phoebe asked, "Mila, you've been married to him for six months after losing your memory. Have you two… done it?""What?""You know, that stuff where you sleep together." Phoebe smiled as she gestured suggestively with her fingers.Mila blushed deeply as she realized what Phoebe meant. "What's on your mind? No, we haven't."Phoebe looked at Nathan in shock. "Really? He's so handsome and has such a great body. So, he's impotent?"Nathan, who was pretending to be asleep, frowned. His body was still, but there was turmoil going on within him. Mila didn't know if Nathan was impotent or not. What she did know was that Nathan respected her and would never force her to do anything.

"They had video-called at least a dozen times during the past month. This led my grandparents to believe that I was the fake Sally Hoffis. Back then, Oliver definitely threatened my parents to cooperate with them in exchange for my safety."Mila remained close to Nathan's side. Her voice was soft, and Nathan could smell her faint scent. His body grew unusually warm, and his mind became unsettled. He cleared his throat and murmured, "I'm aware. Hand me that bottle, will you?""Oh." Mila grabbed the bottle from the bedside table and handed it to him. Nathan cocked his head back and took a big gulp. He looked incredibly seductive. Mila couldn't help blinking as she watched his sexy Adam's apple bobbed. Feeling a little thirsty, she pursed her lips.The blanket on Nathan's shoulders slid down again as he wiped his mouth. Mila looked away quickly. Her face was even redder than before."Phoebe confirmed that my parents have death certificates but not cremation certificates. And the

"Couldn't you have at least given me a heads-up?" Mila asked.Nathan remained silent and went straight into the bathroom.Suddenly there was a knock at the door. Mila quickly leaped off the bed and ran to the door. She pressed her ear to the door and asked, "Who is it?""Suzanne, open up."Mila's heart stopped in her throat when she realized it was Sally. She turned to look at Nathan, who was in the bathroom. The knock was getting more urgent. "Open up. Can't you hear me? Open the door."After a moment's hesitation, Mila opened the door to find Sally standing there with a smug look. Mila raised her voice, asking, "Ms. Hoffis, is there anything?"She was hoping to alert Nathan so he wouldn't come out and be spotted.Sally crossed her arms and looked at her contemptuously. "I've never seen a woman as shameless as you. You threatened my grandma with Nathan and even moved in here brazenly. Aren't you afraid of dying?""I'm not afraid to die," Mila said in a calm voice.Sally snort

Mila tucked Zach's hand back under the blanket and asked calmly, "Dr. Hoffis, I wonder why you called me here?"Oliver slowly got to his feet and adjusted his glasses. There was a hint of suspicion in his sharp gaze as he stared at her. He walked over to the bedside as if something was on his mind. "I think you should come and visit my very ill father. It's a courtesy you owe as a guest.""I'm sorry to be rude." Mila lowered her head apologetically.At first, she feared that seeing Zach seriously ill would make her lose control and expose herself. But her fears faded once she realized that Zach was faking his illness.Loretta laid down her towel and ran her fingers through Zach's silvery hair. She choked back tears and mumbled, "Zach, please wake up. What will I do when you're gone?"Sally rushed to Loretta's side and held her arm in comfort. "Grandma, don't get too upset. You'll still have me with you even if Grandpa is gone."Loretta held onto Sally's hand with a hopeful look
The Wrong Woman Chapter 290
The organization had arranged for the fake Sally to take over Sally Hoffis's identity. Her mission was to marry Nathan, thereby infiltrating his life and extracting more secrets.Having successfully become Sally Hoffis, she was preparing to inherit the Hoffis business. Even if it meant sharing it with Oliver, she didn't mind. But the news that Sally wasn't a Norvanian and couldn't inherit the property was like a blow to her head.Oliver hadn't told her anything about this. Mila revealed this truth so that Sally and Oliver would have a falling out."As Nathan's ex, I considered Ms. Hoffis my love rival, so I investigated her background. Only to find out that Ms. Hoffis is not just an immigrant but has changed her citizenship. She's now a Sunteri. Foreigners have no inheritance rights under Norvanian law," Mila stated calmly.Loretta couldn't hold back her anger and yelled at Mila, "You're full of crap! How could Sally possibly be a Sunteri?"Mila didn't doubt that Zach and Loretta

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?"

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
