Chapter 261

The lights were bright at Sudvilla. The clock in the living room showed 10:30 pm. Suzanne was sipping on a cup of warm milk on the sofa, beside her were Nathan and the Hudson siblings.Cole and Lucas stood guard at the side. Everyone's expression was heavy as they looked at her with anxious eyes—They were all waiting for her to calm down and tell them about her sudden disappearance. She finished the last of her milk and lifted her head to look at everyone. Finally, her gaze fell on Nathan.His face looked grim. His gaze was gentle yet laced with a hint of intensity. He picked up a tissue to wipe the corner of her mouth.She lightly evaded his hand and took the tissue from him. "I got it," she said. "Are you feeling better now?" Nathan asked patiently. "Tell me. How did you suddenly disappear? Where did you go? What happened?"She hesitated for a moment before turning to point toward the balcony. "There's a huge banyan tree in the back garden. I was sitting under the tree wh

As she headed upstairs, she overheard Nathan thanking the Hudson siblings. She could also vaguely make out Fenna's dissatisfied complaints about her earlier actions.Suzanne entered her room and locked the door behind her. Then, she sat on the edge of the bed and thought about every event that had taken place since she regained her memory.Since the time Nathan's grandmother recognized her as Wanda at first glance, she seemed to have had many close encounters with her actual background.What unsettled her the most was Oliver Hoffis. He was her uncle, yet he conspired with outsiders to steal her identity. He even posed as her ex-boyfriend.Being Wanda Hoffis was relatively easier to come to terms with. However, she was also Mila Winkler—The name carried a weight. It felt suffocating just thinking about it. Wanda Hoffis, also known as Mila Winkler, was a Sunteri. She was a chemical scientist and a first-grade ordnance engineer. There were tears in her eyes as she smiled resignedl

Mila waited for a long time but still didn't get the answer she wanted in the end. She forced a disappointed smile on her face and said, "Doesn't matter if you do, our marriage will still be invalid." "I do…" Nathan suddenly blurted out anxiously. Every word he spoke was incredibly sincere as he continued, "I like you so much. I love you so much."When she lifted her head to look at him again, she found that his eyes were bloodshot and his handsome face was bright red. Even parts of the neck behind his ears were red. She felt like she took it too far—Why force Nathan to say all these things when being romantic wasn't exactly his forté? It was probably easier for him to run 10 miles with 20-pound weights than to tell her his feelings.Mila gently bit her bottom lip and stared at him with eyes welled up with tears. Her heart was beating fast from her emotions.She was only going to ask just this once, she wouldn't ask him this ever again.She knew that Nathan loved her. He lo

I only liked you. The words felt like stimulants being injected into Nathan's anxious heart. He felt excited and happy, but also nervous and restless. His joy was laced with a hint of worry.In the heat of the moment, he couldn't resist the urge and pressed a hand against the back of her head. He then lowered his head and kissed her lips. He poured all the love in his heart into the kiss. Mila's hand instinctively flew to his chest to put some distance between them.Afraid she'd run away, Nathan's free arm wrapped around her waist and he pulled her into his embrace.Her entire body was pressed against his muscular chest. She let out a sound of surprise before she was kissed until her lips were swollen. She was lightheaded and felt like she was running low on oxygen. His breath was hot on her skin. This made her entire body limp. She leaned into his embrace and allowed him to kiss her into oblivion.His kisses were deep, but he still had some sort of restraint. Everytime bef

Nathan invited them into the living room and they sat on the sofa. After the maids served the refreshments, Loretta sipped on her tea absentmindedly and said coldly, "What business do you have, asking both of us to come over this time?"Mila felt unusually upset at the moment. She looked toward the elderly couple in front of her—They were clearly her grandparents, but she had no memory of them at all.They didn't recognize her either.She lifted her gaze and noticed that Zach's gaze was still glued to her face. She felt conflicted. "I'm sorry, Mr. Hoffis senior, Madam Hoffis.""You don't need to apologize to us," Loretta scoffed. "You should apologize to my granddaughter."She lowered her head and felt claustrophobic. She then pursed her lips and nodded. "Okay."The elderly woman cast her another look of disdain and scoffed in response."Are you both in good health?" Mila asked again."Whatever you want from us, just be straightforward about it. There's no room for small ta

Nathan saw the emotion in Zach's eyes and understood everything.Did the wise Zach spot something amiss at first glance?Zach promptly looked toward Nathan with a solemn expression and followed up with, "Look after her, Nate."Nathan nodded earnestly in response."Is there something wrong with you? He's supposed to marry Sally! Who are you asking him to look after?" Loretta said in displeasure.Zach ignored her completely. Afterward, he stood up and said, "We won't disturb you any longer, and head back for now. Let's catch up again in the future."Loretta was confused.Nathan and Mila stood up to see them off.Before getting into the car, Zach couldn't help but turn around to look at Mila once more.The pair looked at each other with an emotional gaze that was laced with resignation.After watching the car pull away, Nathan reached for Mila's hand and let out a light sigh. "You shouldn't have met them."Mila was regretting her decision too. She nodded sadly and said, "I didn

Zach nodded and didn't say anything further.Standing at the side, Oliver narrowed his eyes. His fists tightened subconsciously and he clenched his teeth.…The next morning, Nathan left the house early as he had a lot to get done.Mila received a call from an unknown number."Ms. Suzanne York, I'm Zach Hoffis' assistant. Mr. Hoffis would like to meet with you in private. We'd like you to make a trip to the office.""Mr. Hoffis Senior wants to see me?" she asked in surprise."Yes, we'll send a car over to pick you up."For safety reasons, she declined their offer to pick her up. "Where is the address? I'll head over myself," she said."Alright, we'll send you the location."After receiving the address, she packed her things and promptly left with two bodyguards in tow.The car drove along the wide freeway. Mila gave it a considerable amount of thought—Zach must had something important to talk about if he invited her to his office. The bodyguard in the driver's seat turne

The road ahead grew narrower as they drove on.Mila glanced at her surroundings nervously. "Have you taken a wrong turn, Uncle?" she asked quizzically."That's right." His tone was sinister. "Where… are… we?" She felt like her body was gradually growing weaker. She turned to look at her parents, only to find them already unconscious. She didn't even know when they passed out."Dad… Mom… wake up…"Uncle… you…"The car came to a stop.Oliver got out of the vehicle. Then, he opened the door and pulled her out. She felt limp. Unable to do anything to resist, she let him carry her away. She mustered up all her strength to turn and look back in the direction of the car.A couple of men dressed in black appeared out of nowhere. They dragged her unconscious parents out of the vehicle and carried them into the remote parts of the forest."Dad… Mom…" Mila could feel her eyelids getting heavier. After she closed her eyes and tried her best to reopen them, she was met with blinding ray

The doctor and nurses swarmed into the room and rushed toward Mila's bed. Nathan was squeezed out as they hurriedly performed check-ups on her.They checked her eyes, her blood pressure, and her electrocardiogram. They also tested her motor reflexes and asked about various symptoms.Mila answered all their questions seriously, letting them know where she felt unwell.After a series of checks, she realized that Nathan was no longer in the room. She glanced around as the doctors left the room, leaving the nurses behind to take care of her. The voices of Nathan and the doctor rang out from the door. "The patient appears to be doing better. Her bodily functions are quite good too."Although there was blunt trauma to the head, she seems to be thinking clearly. There shouldn't be any complications post-recovery.""She seems to have regained her memories, is this normal?" Nathan asked.The doctor looked glad. "It's possible that the external impact shifted some of the nerves, thus r

Chapter 270

Nathan worriedly questioned, "Does your word still hold?"Mila cast a guilty glance at him. She didn't reply.The short silence felt like an eternity for Nathan. His weathered and weary face was filled with loneliness, and his deep eyes were bloodshot.He was too hurt to listen to her answer. It'd be better if she didn't answer because that would keep his hope intact.After a while, she gently replied, "No."He forced a smile. Tears blurred his vision as he fought to remain calm.She felt sorry at the sight of his misty eyes and exhausted appearance, but there was nothing much she could do. She suggested, "Nathan, you look very tired. Why don't you go home to rest?"He cleared his throat and asked in a low voice, "Are you in a hurry to drive me away right after you woke up?""That's not what I meant."He rose. "I know. Have a good rest." With that, he coolly exited the room.Mila stared at his broad figure. She sensed more disappointment than exhaustion in him.After Nathan
