The Wrong Woman Chapter 387
In the warm and cozy room, Nathan lay half-reclined on the bed with his eyes closed. Soft rays of sunlight streamed in through the balcony and shone on his handsome face, making his complexion more charming. Now, he appeared a bit more weary and weathered, which made people feel sorry for him.Mila had prepared herself mentally on the way there. She reminded herself that he was no longer single. She shouldn't fantasize or hold onto any delusion. However, upon seeing him, she couldn't help but feel a flutter of excitement. She was unable to control herself.She approached him slowly, her voice soft as she greeted him. "Nate."Nathan tensed up. He abruptly opened his eyes and gazed intensely at Mila. She was wearing a soft pink floral dress, and her long hair cascaded over her shoulders. In her left hand, she held a large bunch of her favorite white zinnias. While in her right hand, she carried two boxes of supplements.She stood there, awkward and timid.Mila's smile reached

"Chubs," Nathan said. He smiled softly as he gazed at her with affection.Mila looked up with her eyes shimmering. She asked, "Hmm?"He expressed himself with full affection, "The country needs you."Mila put on a sweet smile. She asked softly, "What about you?"Nathan was stunned and bewildered as he looked at her.Mila suddenly realized the question she asked was too much, especially considering he was now in a relationship. She felt embarrassed for saying such inappropriate words.Just as Nathan was about to respond, Mila awkwardly chuckled and said, "Sorry, I was just joking. You don't have to answer that."Nathan's words were caught in his throat.Mila felt increasingly awkward. She then stood up and said, "Nate, you rest well. I'll get going first.""Chubs," Nathan hurriedly called out. He felt extremely reluctant.Mila had just arrived. Was she really leaving so soon?Nathan called out for her, but she didn't stop. He lifted the blanket and got out of bed. He quickly

"There's something I need to explain to you," Nathan said. His breath grew heavy as he spoke softly against her shoulder."What is it?" Mila asked."Fenna and I aren't dating."Mila was stunned. She was at a loss for words. She had mixed feelings about it, and her thoughts raced in all directions.She was unsure whether to feel relieved, happy, angry, or annoyed. But she could feel Fenna's hostility, and her tactics were a bit dirty.As Mila's emotions settled down, her hands around his waist tightened. "Nate, Fenna told me you two were together."That was why Nathan felt it necessary to explain. Regardless of whether she loved him or not, he wouldn't let himself be in a helpless position.As long as Mila remained unmarried and he was still single, he still had a chance."Yeah, Fenna mentioned it to me," Nathan replied.Fear lodged itself in Mila's heart. If Nathan had never explained, she would've always misunderstood.If the misunderstanding was cleared up, Fenna would simp

The woman who couldn't wait to leave just a moment ago suddenly wanted to stay and take care of him, and with such intimacy.Nathan smiled slightly. Curious, he asked, "What made you change your mind all of a sudden?"Mila gently pursed her lips and wore a delightful smile. She thought it over for a moment and said, "Because you got injured saving me, so it's natural for me to take care of you."Nathan chuckled as he gazed at her deeply.Mila said in a playful tone, "In medieval times, when women wanted to repay their saviors, they would often offer themselves if they had nothing else to offer."Nathan felt his body heat up, so he pulled his blanket down slightly. He said with a deep voice, "Are you also offering yourself?"Mila nodded. Her demeanor was extremely serious as she said, "I'm offering myself."Nathan's expression turned serious. He said, "Don't joke about this with me. I'll take it seriously.""I'm not joking," Mila said solemnly.Nathan closed his eyes again to r

Mila stood there empty-handed, watching Fenna's domineering attitude. She felt extremely suffocated inside and said, "No, it's fine.""Nate must be hungry. I'll get going then," Fenna said politely, but it was a subtle way of urging her to leave.With that, she headed upstairs with the tray of food. Mila clenched her fists tightly. She was frustrated, so she walked out onto the balcony to let the cool breeze brush against her face as she took deep breaths.She felt like she couldn't remain indifferent anymore. Although Nathan liked her, he was still a man. Fenna was so cunning, and they've been good friends for many years, so it's not impossible for feelings to develop over time.If she didn't do something now, when she really lost Nathan, it would be too late to regret.After contemplating her options, Mila turned and rushed upstairs. She pushed open the door and walked in without knocking. She saw Fenna helping Nathan out of bed.Fenna and Nathan heard the noise and turned to

"Do you need any help?" Mila asked shyly when she noticed Nathan's hesitation.Nathan was waiting for her to leave. Now, he was more embarrassed after hearing her words. "I'm good. You may go out," he replied. Mila was unhappy when she thought of Fenna waiting outside the bathroom. "I'll wait for you to finish peeing before I help you out."Nathan had no choice but to sigh. He felt warmth in his chest, and his breathing grew heavy. He murmured in a hoarse voice, "Chubs, how can I pee with you watching?"Mila slowly turned her back to him. She said shyly, "I won't look, so you can start.""Chubs—" Nathan called out her name with a mixture of helplessness and fondness. Before he could say anything further, Mila immediately interrupted, "Stop dawdling and hurry up." She felt a bit embarrassed and annoyed.Nathan didn't figure out what she was thinking. He felt extremely embarrassed and couldn't do anything with her around."Nate, just consider us as a long-time married couple. T
The Wrong Woman Chapter 393
Nathan leaned back in his chair. He felt somewhat weary as he said, "You're so busy, you don't have to come here every day. I'll be fine. I just need to rest for a couple of days."Fenna smiled as she nodded. "Okay, then rest well."Mila remained silent.As Fenna opened the door to leave, she glanced back at Mila. Mila glanced at her too. Their eye contact was like a silent battle of wills, and the atmosphere grew even more tense.Once the door closed, Mila finally breathed a sigh of relief. She used a fork to pick up some grilled potatoes, together with a meatball, and offered it to Nathan.Nathan didn't open his mouth. His expression was slightly gloomy as he said, "She's gone, you don't have to pretend anymore."Mila was stunned. She said, "Nate, I…"She wasn't pretending. She genuinely wanted to take care of him. Of course, she couldn't deny that she also wanted to provoke Fenna.Nathan took the cutlery from her and began to eat. He felt a bit gloomy as he murmured, "It's o

As Mila descended the stairs, she spotted Phoebe in the living room.Phoebe handed her a bag of clothes and asked, "Mila, why did you suddenly move to Sudvilla? How's Mr. Morrison holding up?"Accepting the bag, Mila settled onto the sofa beside Phoebe. "He's suffered two major injuries in the past, and his body is quite fragile, requiring constant care," she explained.Phoebe fell silent, her expression filled with concern.Mila then asked, "Have you received any updates from Sunterland?"Phoebe's expression darkened as she lowered her voice. "Mila, you're fully aware of your position. Sunterland won't simply allow you to leave. They're still making efforts to sway you in their favor."Mila sighed softly, her tone tinged with guilt. "Please continue handling this matter for me. Let's try to avoid causing any offense or stirring up trouble. Let's resolve it peacefully."Filled with doubt and regret, Phoebe questioned, "I just can't understand why you're so determined to leave Su

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
