Mila said, "Phoebe, I'll stay at your place."Phoebe replied helplessly, "But I've been staying at a hotel all the time."Frowning, Mila was shocked by the information. Phoebe inched closer with a smile and asked, "What's wrong with your place? Can't we stay there?"Mila mumbled in bitterness, "I divorced Nathan as 'Suzanne.' Since we're no longer wife and husband, I don't have a place to live now."Phoebe blinked, looking at her calmly. "Well, you can buy a house for yourself since you're pretty rich."Mila sighed, "This is Norvania, not Sunterland."Phoebe slapped herself on the head and chuckled, "Gosh, I'm being silly. Your assets are in Sunterland. "As Suzanne York, you'll definitely attract unwanted attention from the authorities if you transfer that vast wealth to Norvania."Mila pressed her lips wryly. After a pause, she confessed, "Actually, I am in 600 thousand dollars worth of debt."Phoebe looked surprised. "Who did you owe it to?""Nathan Morrison.""Your ex-hu

"I'm sorry…" Mila mumbled.Lucas couldn't stand the scene anymore. Clutching his fist, he snapped, "Ms. York, Mr. Morrison showered you with deep affection for half a year. For you, he—""Shut up," growled Nathan, effectively cutting off Lucas.Lucas nodded and took a step back without a word.Nathan feigned a casual tone. "Are you planning to head back to Sunterland?"Mila replied, "I'll head back after settling the two snakes by Grandpa and Grandma's side."Nathan scrambled for reasons to make her stay. "Aren't you going to take over the Hoffis family's business?""No.""Isn't it a win-win situation to get your lover to Norvania while you take over the family business? You can stay back to enjoy family time with your grandparents."She flashed him a smile and shook her head.Looking upset, he nonetheless replied in a stiff tone, "Well, I wish you happiness."Then, he left in great strides without looking back. Cole quickly followed suit. Lucas, ashen-faced, felt sorry an

"Mila, wait for me!" Phoebe's panicked voice echoed from behind. She panted as she caught up to Mila. Placing her hands on her waist, she lowered her head and breathed heavily.By then, Lucas had caught up to the two women. Mila looked at Nathan hesitantly. Under the gaze of everyone around, she struggled to express her helpless and guilty feelings.She didn't want to hurt Nathan, but she was well aware that she couldn't offer him what he wanted. The best she could do was to apologize to him.Nathan briefly glanced at Phoebe and asked Mila, "Mila? Do you have another name?"Mila was slightly taken aback. She quickly recalled her previous career and nervously explained, "I published a book once. Mila was my pen name."Was she a published author before? Well, she was surely an all-rounder.Fixing a passionate gaze on Mila, Nathan finally remarked, "You haven't changed at all. You've been an outstanding person since young."With that, he entered the car without any longing.Luca

Nathan rubbed his temple and checked the time on his wristwatch. Then, he ordered, "Look into Oliver Hoffis' records in the past ten years."Cole replied, "Will do, Mr. Morrison."Nathan turned to Lucas. "Lucas, send some men to monitor Sally. Figure out how Sally and Oliver got in touch with the Dark Shadows Society."Lucas sounded reluctant. He pleaded, "Mr. Morrison…"Nathan went ahead, "Also, send some bodyguards to protect Zach and Loretta Hoffis. I don't want anything happening to them."Lucas was practically trembling from anguish. "Mr. Morrison, you've been busy enough with the Norvanian military. Why would you waste time on her family matters? She's not worth your effort after what she had done to you."Nathan disregarded Lucas' protests. He got out of the car and entered the main complex of Sudvilla. Lucas and Cole followed suit.Nathan walked past the living room and headed to the study. His two assistants followed behind closely with much concern.Lucas called out t

Cameron casually took a sip of his drink before responding, "You're not."Nathan let out a sigh. "Love in this life often feels like an insignificant desire. Marriage or not, it's not a matter of life and death."Cameron chuckled in response, a sense of irony in his voice. He took another sip of his drink, strolled to the nearby sofa, and settled in with his legs crossed."You appear quite composed. It seems like you're not as emotionally affected as they say. Divorce doesn't seem to faze you much, does it?"Nathan remained silent, instead reaching for a box of liquor from the desk. He walked over to Cameron and placed it on the coffee table."Take the alcohol home and drink it. I don't have time to keep you company," Nathan replied curtly, settling the bottle down before returning to his desk to resume work.Cameron, still seated with his legs crossed, watched Nathan intently, lost in thought as he sipped his drink.Initially, Cameron had come to share a drink with Nathan, but

Mila's response came swiftly, "I was doing alright."Feeling a familiar ache in his heart, Nathan slowly closed his eyes, his voice strained as he murmured, "Where did you study? Where did you work? You...""Nate," Mila interrupted his probing questions, her tone heavy with emotion as she avoided delving into the past. "It's all behind us now. There's no point dwelling on it."But was it truly relegated to the past?Nathan pursed his lips bitterly, resisting the urge to press further.Over the past decade, there had been countless words he yearned to express to her. He wanted to ensure she was doing well and to learn about every facet of her life.Even if it meant merely being a friend, a neighbor who cared.Mila's voice came slowly, "Nate, goodbye."Nathan stayed silent, listening to the emptiness of the line. A part of him still hoped she would reach out to him again.Mila hadn't specified when she would retrieve her belongings. Maybe she had no intention of seeing him again

Mila exited Sudvilla, dragging her suitcase behind her.Phoebe emerged from the car, swiftly taking Mila's suitcase and stowing it in the trunk.Seated in the passenger seat, Mila stared out at the landscape, tears welling up in her eyes, an unfamiliar sense of discomfort engulfing her heart.It felt as though her heart was being pricked by a thousand needles, the ache nearly unbearable, Nathan's memory haunting her every thought.Phoebe settled into the driver's seat, starting the engine before pulling away from the curb. "Mila, when are we heading back to Sunterland?" she inquired.Mila turned her gaze to the passing scenery outside the window, her voice calm as she asked, "Did you make the report?""Yes, I did," Phoebe responded solemnly. "The country needs you and is eager for your return as soon as possible."Mila's lips twisted in bitterness as she took a deep breath. "You shouldn't have rushed to report it.""Why not?" "I need to handle things here first. It's not goin

Nathan remained silent for a moment before humming in response. Mila lowered her gaze, her fingers gently stroking the teddy bear in her arms as she murmured, "I've transferred 600 thousand dollars to your account."Nathan's response was another quiet, noncommittal hum. His composed and indifferent demeanor sent a wave of panic through Mila's chest.Despite her desire to maintain distance and avoid any contact with him, she found herself torn and overwhelmed by conflicting emotions, the turmoil almost driving her to the brink of madness.She missed him dearly, desperately longing to see him again. Feeling at a loss for words, Mila simply said, "Never mind, goodbye."Before she could say anything more, Nathan abruptly ended the call.Mila gazed at her phone screen, tears cascading down her cheeks uncontrollably.Across from her, Phoebe sat munching on potato chips, her gaze filled with confusion as she observed Mila's unexpected emotional outburst.Phoebe asked helplessly, "Mil

"What's our plan?" Mila hesitated briefly before turning to Phoebe. "We're going to stay at Hoffis Manor," she declared.Phoebe's expression turned incredulous. "Stay at Hoffis Manor? Are you serious?"Mila sighed. "It's the only way you can be close enough to protect my grandparents."Without further discussion, Phoebe headed inside to pack their belongings.An hour later, in the luxurious villa of Hoffis Manor, Mila and Phoebe stood in the living room, each with a suitcase beside them.The staff of Hoffis Manor exchanged puzzled glances, their skepticism evident as they observed the two unfamiliar women.Loretta was equally stunned, gazing at their suitcases with disbelief. She couldn't help but feel shocked and slightly amused by the situation."When did Hoffis Manor become a shelter?" Loretta's tone dripped with disdain. "Who gave you the audacity to assume you can stay in my house? It's laughable and embarrassing. Where do you get the nerve to make such requests?"Mila r

Sally looked bewildered. "I stole your husband?"Mila nodded, her expression on the verge of tears. "Yes, you stole my husband. When he divorced me, he confessed that he had always loved his childhood sweetheart."Sally's eyebrows knitted together in surprise, her face reflecting a mix of disbelief and uncertainty as she glanced toward Oliver.Oliver narrowed his enigmatic eyes, a slight smile tugging at his lips as he adjusted his glasses. "How long do you plan to stay?""Until I can come to terms with my previous marriage.""Very well, make yourself at home," Oliver declared.Sally angrily interjected, "Uncle Oliver, have you lost your mind? It's clear she has ulterior motives."Oliver shot Sally a cold glare, his eyes brimming with hostility. Sally recoiled, too intimidated to speak further.Pointing at Phoebe, Oliver asked, "And who is she?"Mila held Phoebe's hand and introduced her, stating, "This is my friend, Phoebe Baskins. She's currently facing some financial diff
