The door creaked open, and Suzanne glanced up from her book. When she spotted Nathan entering with her meal, her face lit up in surprise."Why are you suddenly the one bringing me food?" Suzanne asked as she stood up."I swung by to grab some things and figured I'd bring over the meal in Lucas' stead," Nathan replied calmly.He placed the meal and utensils on the dining table before walking over to the bedside table. He casually opened the drawer, and simply closed it without grabbing anything.Suzanne was a little flustered by the towering heap of food before her. She had no clue where to start.Nathan approached with a grin. "Consider it Lucas' way of showing you some care."Suzanne furrowed her brows and gave Nathan a pleading look. "It's way too much. I can't possibly finish all this by myself."Nathan regarded her seriously as he uttered, "Don't let the food go to waste."Suzanne was stumped by his words. She had expected him to say that.After pausing for a moment, she q

The pleasant meal soon came to an end. Once they were done with lunch, Nathan told Suzanne to take some rest and then headed out with the tray in hand.Outside the dormitory, Cole and Lucas saw Nathan making his way down with the empty tray.Cole leaned over and whispered, "General Morrison took his time with that meal.""Maybe Mrs. Morrison takes her sweet time eating," Lucas said."He seems to be in a good mood."Seeing Nathan approach them, Lucas quipped, "That's about to change."Nathan came to a stop in front of the pair."General Morrison," they both greeted in unison.Nathan's expression grew serious as he walked past them. He handed the tray over and instructed, "Take it and give it a good wash.""Yes, sir."Lucas had the tray in hand, ambling alongside Cole as they trailed behind Nathan."Any luck finding the culprit?" Nathan asked in a serious tone."We've narrowed down the suspects to 12 people. The investigation is still in progress," Cole answered."How's th

It was Lucas. He passed a cup of warm milk to Suzanne and said, "Mrs. Morrison, have some milk and get some sleep. General Morrison might have a busy night, and he's not sure when he'll be back."Suzanne accepted the milk. She felt a little let down as she mumbled, "Thanks.""No problem."She looked downcast as she asked, "How did you know I'm still awake?""Mrs. Morrison, I swear I wasn't stalking you. I was pulling extra hours at the office, and General Morrison told me to bring you the milk. He said you should go to bed soon," Lucas clarified.Suzanne was taken aback. She glanced out of the balcony and asked, "Does Nathan know I've been awake?"Lucas wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, worried about coming across as a stalker.He took a moment to explain, "General Morrison's office is on the top floor of the tallest building a couple of streets away. He's got a clear view of the dorms. The whole building is dark, except for the lights in your room. So naturally, he know

In the wee hours of the morning, the office was still bustling with plenty of activity. Everyone was startled when Suzanne showed up in her pajamas and a cardigan. Nathan wasn't too happy.He headed her way and asked, "Didn't I tell you to get some sleep?""Is the lab in Research Building Five?" Suzanne asked in a hurry.Nathan was confused. "What's happening?"Suzanne looked directly at him and whispered in a sincere tone, "Lucas mentioned that you guys couldn't extract pure Azurium. I want to give it a shot."Nathan glared at Lucas, who looked guilty. Beads of sweat were forming on his forehead and he quickly shrank back.Instead of following Nathan's instructions to get Suzanne to sleep early, Lucas told her about the issues they were dealing with, leaving Suzanne all worked up."You think you can handle it?" Nathan was surprised.Suzanne shook her head, then nodded. She wasn't completely confident. "I know the methods, but I can't guarantee that it'll work. You've been

The chemists and professors were taken by surprise. A few of them were so rattled that they immediately searched online, typing in: "How many have succeeded in extracting pure Azurium?"One of the chemistry professors approached Nathan and said excitedly, "General Morrison, I did some searching. There are fewer than ten chemists worldwide who have succeeded in extracting pure Azurium."Plus, it's a secret technology in developed countries. They're making a profit from this technology and keeping it strictly within their countries."Nathan snapped back to reality and asked, "Who are these ten chemists?""The source didn't disclose the personal details of these chemists."Suzanne's success left everyone in awe. Executives started swarming Nathan and bombarding him with a barrage of questions."How on earth is Mrs. Morrison more skilled than our top scientists in Norvania?""General Morrison, where did Mrs. Morrison pick up these techniques?""Mrs. Morrison was the one who sorte

Nathan strolled up to Suzanne with a darkened gaze and suddenly leaned down. Suzanne instinctively leaned back and landed on the bed. She could feel her heart racing out of her chest.Nathan knelt on the bed and placed his hands beside her as he peered down at her.His masculine scent flooded over Suzanne and her breaths turned erratic. She was both nervous and confused. Nathan teased playfully, "Madam, do you prefer to top or bottom for me?""That's not what I meant." Suzanne paled. Why did she sense some seriousness behind his playful words?"You… you seem unhappy—ever since I exited the lab; and you refuse to talk to me." Suzanne swallowed hard.Nathan smirked and muttered, "The successful extraction of pure Azurium not only saved me a chunk of money but also pushed our technology forward. Of course, I'm happy.""Are you doubting my identity again, then? Is that why you're acting like this?" Suzanne asked."I have never stopped doubting your identity." Nathan hummed.Suz

Suzanne shot Sally a cold look. "What do you want?"Sally shrugged. "Nothing. I just wanted to ask when are you planning to divorce Nate?"Suzanne brushed past her. "We don't plan on getting a divorce."Sally snorted and hurriedly blocked Suzanne's path. "Do you seriously think you're worthy to be by his side? Who do you think you are? You'll only embarrass Nate if he's seen with you. The person Nate likes is me. You're the third wheel in our relationship."Suzanne quelled her anger and explained calmly, "Three years ago, Grandma told Nathan to marry me. But he decided to wait for your return and rejected Grandma's decision."Sally was surprised by this.Suzanne continued, "A year had passed between your return and the day Nathan and I got married, right? If he liked you, why didn't he marry you? Why did he choose to marry me instead?""That's..." Sally was at a loss for words.Suzanne added, "That's because he had no intention of marrying you."Sally stomped her foot in frust

The next moment, Sally appeared in front of Suzanne. She grabbed the latter's wrist and faked being pushed down the stairs."Stop!" Sally screamed as she rolled herself down the stairs. She eventually collided with the stone statue beneath the stairs.Blood instantly poured from Sally's forehead."Murder…" Sally cried and crawled toward the soldiers with a terrified look. "Help me! Suzanne wants to kill me!"The soldiers quickly helped Sally up and gaped at Suzanne in bewilderment.Suzanne was dumbfounded. Was Sally falsely accusing her again? Suzanne was familiar with Sally's tricks. But the latter was going to more extreme lengths each time!Sally held her bleeding forehead and trembled behind the soldiers. She cried out pitifully, "Quick, call the cops! Suzanne is trying to kill me."At this point, more onlookers gathered around them.Everyone knew who Suzanne was. They didn't dare to scold her or call the cops on her.…On the highway, Lucas, who was in the passenger se

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
