Nathan couldn't help but purse his lips. He couldn't smile even though he wanted to. He ruffled Mila's hair gently and said, "I don't eat supper, so go have a rest."

Mila lowered her head and secretly yawned. Her voice muffled as she said, "You should go back to your room and rest too.

"If there's anything, be sure to call me immediately. I will come to your room right away."

At that moment, Nathan found Mila's ideas very interesting. He never thought he would need a delicate and frail woman to protect him.

"Okay," he replied.

"Set my number on the speed dial," Mila told Nathan.

Nathan calmly took out his phone and set Mila's number as a speed dial.

"All set," Nathan showed her his phone as he gently said, "Can you go to sleep now?"

Mila was still worried. She continued, "Don't eat anything given by anyone else.

"From now on, let Phoebe be in charge of your meals. Her cooking is as good as Keith's."

"I'll do as you say," Nathan replied. He didn't expect her to take it so seri

    Mila picked up her utensils, but when she looked at Nathan, he had already finished his entire breakfast.Nathan wiped his mouth with a serviette. He murmured, "The food was very delicious."With such a good review, Mila was really curious about how good it tasted.She picked up a grilled tomato and placed it in her mouth.The sweetness of the grilled tomato overwhelmed her taste buds in a flash and she frowned. The grilled tomato wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either, just a little bit sweet.She seemed to have mistaken sugar for salt. She also added too much sugar to the food.As expected, the buttered toast was sweet, and so were the scrambled eggs.The more she ate, the more embarrassed she felt. She kept her head lowered.Nathan said with a smile, "It really is delicious. I like it."Mila was comforted by his words. She slowly put down her cutlery, because she really couldn't get used to this taste. It was too embarrassing.She changed the subject and asked, "Nate, what

    When Nathan and Mila arrived at the summerhouse, there were no staff in sight.Nathan knocked on the door and slowly pushed it open.The room was pitch black. There wasn't any noise either. It was dead silent.Mila and Phoebe, who were attracted by the scenery outside, were also struck by the chilly atmosphere in the room."Get out!" A man angrily shouted with a hoarse voice. He sounded exhausted and worn out.Mila was startled. She moved closer to Nathan and unconsciously grasped his arm.Nathan glanced at her hand as he gently held it.Due to the light shining in from the doorway, they saw a shadowy figure lurking in the room."Daniel. It's me, Nate," Nathan said while walking into the room with Mila.Looking at the pitch-black living room, Mila gathered up her courage and said, "Dan, I've come to see you."Suddenly, there was a loud bang.Phoebe immediately covered her ears. Mila clung tightly to Nathan's arm. She took a deep breath. She stood at the doorway, staring into

    Mila's heart sank as she glanced back at the summerhouse entrance, her voice filled with concern. "Nate, Dan is visually impaired and unable to walk. With his volatile temper, who will care for him?"Nathan's gaze was intense as he spoke softly, "He's been heavily drinking. Once he passes out, the maid will tidy up his room, and the doctor will administer intravenous nutrition and rehabilitation treatments."Mila couldn't bear watching Daniel inflict such torment upon himself. It felt like witnessing a slow form of suicide. "I need to go see him."With determination, Mila rose from her seat and headed toward the summerhouse."Mila." Nathan stood up nervously, contemplating whether to stop her, but ultimately held back, restraining himself.Mila simply wished to rescue Daniel from his despair. He should appreciate her efforts.Nathan watched as Mila vanished from his sight. At that moment, an inexplicable sense of desolation and loneliness washed over him, accompanied by a tumultu

    "What's your point?" Mila showed no signs of slowing down.Phoebe replied, "Administering drugs to a man would undoubtedly involve the second type."Mila turned to Phoebe, her expression puzzled.Phoebe continued, slightly breathless, "Mila, your concern for Mr. Morrison's safety has clouded your judgment. Take a moment to think rationally. Mr. Morrison is aware of Sally's hidden agenda against him, so he must be vigilant."Mila stayed silent, prompting Phoebe to elaborate further.Phoebe stressed, "Firstly, Mr. Morrison's two assistants would never risk betraying him. If they were caught, they'd face severe consequences."Secondly, drugging a man requires him to be both disoriented and aroused. If Mr. Morrison carries a tranquilizer, he won't be vulnerable even if exposed to an aphrodisiac."Lastly, I doubt Sally poses a threat to Mr. Morrison. You're just being overly anxious."Mila finally composed herself and exited the Morrison Residence, with Phoebe trailing behind. "Phoe

    "Invite us out for a meal?" Phoebe exclaimed, taken aback.Mila's expression darkened at this unexpected suggestion, her concern mounting. She swiftly bypassed Keith and hurried into the house, with Keith anxiously attempting to follow.Phoebe grasped Keith's arm, a knowing smile playing on her lips. "Keith, what's happening today? Why are you so jittery?Keith shook off Phoebe's hand. "It's nothing. I should get going."Phoebe stepped in front of Keith, blocking his path. "What's the hurry? Let's wait for a while."Keith glanced nervously inside once more, visibly flustered.Phoebe noticed every move he made. With her extensive experience as a bodyguard, she sensed that something was seriously amiss.Without hesitation, she tackled him to the ground.Mila dashed into the living room and heard Sally's persistent knocking at the door."Nate, please open up! It's Sally. Nate..." Sally's voice echoed as she continued to knock on the door, insisting, "Open the door, I need to spea

    It felt utterly absurd that Nathan could be drugged simply by having a meal at home.Mila grew increasingly concerned about Nathan, who remained locked in his room.Knocking on the door, she called out, "Nate, it's Wanda. Sally has been taken away by Cole and the others. Can you please open the door?"Nathan's voice came from within, "I'm okay, you don't have to worry about me."Feeling unsettled, Mila persisted, "Please, open the door. If you're feeling unwell, I can take you to the hospital.""I'm fine.""Then just unlock the door so I can see you.""There's no need for that."Mila's voice softened as she gently pleaded, "Nate, please, just open the door."Nathan's impatience was evident as he sharply inquired, "Wanda, are you that oblivious?"It was the first time Mila had heard Nathan speak so harshly to her, let alone call her oblivious."Why are you scolding me?" Mila muttered, looking hurt. "I'm concerned for you. I genuinely care. How could you accuse me of being obl

    Mila's face turned red, and she averted her gaze, unable to meet Nathan's eyes, her breath quickening. "I-I'll take you to the hospital," she stammered.Nathan spoke softly, "Are you concerned about the media not having enough material?"Mila shook her head vigorously. "That's not what I meant."Nathan's gaze intensified as he stared at her blushing face, his Adam's apple bobbing as he licked his dry lips.He breathed in the delicate aroma emanating from her, his heart racing, consumed by desire. The passion he had recently suppressed with a cold shower was now rekindled.His hand clenched tightly before he released it, stepping back as he instructed, "Leave."Mila was caught off guard. "What?""Stay at Sudvilla. Don't venture elsewhere," Nathan advised sternly."But what about your health? Are you truly alright?" Mila inquired, concern evident in her eyes.Nathan found himself drawn to her rosy lips as she spoke, each syllable holding him captive like a mesmerizing poppy flow

  • The Wrong Woman   Chapter 339

    As the passion subsided, Mila gradually returned to her senses, her gaze shifting to the ceiling as she slowly released her arms from around Nathan's neck, feeling a whirlwind of emotions.Nathan tenderly caressed her hair and softly kissed her earlobe, his voice husky, almost pleading, "Wanda, I'll give you everything you desire. I'll ensure a bright future for us. I'll devote myself entirely to loving you. Will you marry me?"A sharp pang shot through Mila's heart, tears welling up in her eyes, turning them red. She tightly clenched her fists, struggling to contain her emotions.If she was still suffering from amnesia and heard these words, she'd undoubtedly be moved, eagerly nodding in agreement.But she wasn't Wanda; she was Mila. She couldn't afford to become entangled with the leader of the Norvanian military."I'm sorry, Nate." Mila's voice quivered, tears blurring her sight. "I can't accept your proposal."Nathan's eyes closed in anguish as he pressed his face against her

    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
