Nathan responded calmly, "I'll have to trouble you to take her home. She caused a huge scene at the military base last time, and now the researchers in the research department hold deep grudges against her. I can't handle it."Upon hearing this, Sally rushed over to him and huffed, "Nate, I don't want to go home. I also want to watch the drills."Nathan's attitude was firm as he commanded, "Go home with your uncle. Don't let your grandparents worry."Having said that, he led Suzanne toward the heavily armed military convoy.Sally watched Suzanne and Nathan leave with the convoy in a grand procession, a look of discontent on her face. She bit her lip and clenched her fists. Unknowingly, a fierce glint crossed her eyes.Wendy awkwardly smiled. "Well, um... Sally, let's take your uncle's car back."Ignoring Wendy, Sally forced out through gritted teeth, "Oliver, drive me to the military headquarters."However, Oliver's attitude was extremely indifferent. "I have to work tomorrow;

Chapter 72

Suzanne knew he was pointing out that Sally was chasing after them.Thinking of the affectionate moments between Nathan and Sally at the military base, along with Nathan's care and concern for Sally, extreme discomfort pierced her heart.Suzanne lowered her head and chose not to say another word.Nathan gazed at her melancholic profile, and his deep eyes became somber while his eyebrows slightly furrowed.A sense of uneasiness lingered within him as he wondered if she was that unwilling to be with him, and whether she was thinking about Oliver.After a brief internal struggle, Nathan couldn't bear seeing her distressed any longer. He asked at last, "Where would you like to get off?"Suzanne bit her lip and a wave of sadness surged in her as she realized that in the end, he was letting her get out of the car."Anywhere is fine," she muttered.In the front passenger seat, Cole hurriedly chimed in, "Madam, we're on the highway; we can't stop the car."Lucas, who was driving atten

Chapter 73

At the frontiers was the Norvanian military headquarters.The convoy gradually entered the heavily fortified weapons production base, stopping in front of a luxurious skyscraper.Suzanne had not been here before. After getting out of the vehicle, she followed Nathan into the building, taking the elevator directly to the top floor.In the spacious conference room, dozens of individuals in various uniforms stood in a line and bowed as they greeted Nathan, "General Morrison."Suzanne was surprised to see that among these men and women, some were in white lab coats, some in military combat uniforms, and others in technical research attire. Additionally, many of the rest wore uniforms she couldn't recognize. Presumably, leaders from all the military departments were present.Nathan, with his usual stern and cold demeanor, took his seat at the head of the table.Lucas ushered Suzanne to the lounge next to the conference room and served her coffee. "Madam, General Morrison has an urge

Chapter 74

Nathan's face was exceptionally gloomy and his eyes were filled with distress. As he tried to catch his breath, his chest heaved unevenly.Suzanne had never witnessed Nathan in such a panicked state and was momentarily stunned.From the time Nathan entered the ward, he didn't utter a word.Suzanne cleared her throat and spoke softly, "I have to thank Mr. Vega for his timely rescue. I'm fine now."Nathan remained silent, his rapid breathing showing no signs of calming down.Suzanne felt extremely intimidated by his behavior. The gradually enveloping hostility that radiated from him sent shivers down her spine.She proceeded to raise her injured hands and explained patiently, "The assailant tried to stab my chest with a dagger. I had no choice but to use my hands to stop it, and the dagger veered off. The doctor said it's just a flesh wound; it will heal soon."Looking at Suzanne's hands that were wrapped in bandages, Nathan slowly clenched his fists. The chilling sound of his knu

After regaining his composure, Nathan realized that he had overreacted and responded excessively.He stood up and cleared his throat. Then, Nathan asked solemnly, "Tell me, what do you remember about the person who did this? Was it a man or a woman?"Suzanne thought seriously for a moment before shaking her head. "He was dressed in all black, wearing a black hat and a black mask. I couldn't see his face."Nathan continued, "What about his height and build?""He—"Just then, an urgent voice interrupted Suzanne."Nate! Nate!"Sally rushed into the ward, looking bewildered. "Nate, there you are! I just arrived and the place is heavily guarded. Everyone's busy investigating something. What's going on?"Suzanne lowered her head in annoyance, suddenly feeling at a loss for words.Then, Sally turned to Suzanne on the bed, widening her eyes with an exaggerated expression of shock.She asked sarcastically, "Oh my God, Suzanne! You're injured? What happened? Why are you injured? Who d

Chapter 76

Nathan's face darkened as he seethed with anger. "Revealing other people's past scandals, digging into their weaknesses, and mocking them to their face—Is that how you should behave?""But I was just speculating that her attempted murder might be connected to her past relationships."Furious, Nathan berated her in an icy tone. "You could've just said so instead of giving a lengthy dissertation no one asked for."Sally pouted. "Nate, I know I was wrong. I didn't mean it. I spoke without thinking. Please don't be angry."Bullshit. It was clear she intentionally said all that to personally attack Suzanne.Nathan grabbed her arm, continuing to walk out of the field hospital while instructing, "I'll have someone escort you home. Don't come back again."Sally struggled to pull her hand away, saying, "Nate, I'm not leaving. I just got here, and I want to stay with you.""I don't need your company.""Nate, let go of me. I'm not leaving!" Sally was rudely dragged away; her struggle wa

Chapter 77

The night hung quietly beneath the soft moonlight. Outside the hospital, only the rustle of trees broke the silence. Nathan entered the ward with quiet footsteps.As Suzanne's caregiver, Emily was about to greet him. Instead, he signaled her to stay silent with a wave of his hand. Catching the cue, she quietly made her way out of the ward.Suzanne was peacefully sleeping on the hospital bed. Nathan settled into a nearby chair, keeping an eye on her while she slept.Even without a hint of makeup, her face was flawless and lovely. Her features gave her an especially gentle and serene look when she was asleep.Suzanne had a resilient personality and a multitude of talents. Nathan struggled to wrap his head around the idea that someone so gentle and innocent might be putting on a front.He wasn't sure if his powers of observation were failing him or if Suzanne was just exceptionally skilled at hiding her true self.As the night wore on, Nathan stuck around in Suzanne's ward for sev

Emily tenderly stroked Suzanne's back, playing the part of a comforting mother. "Mrs. Morrison, don't be too upset. General Morrison is busy with work. He's been knee-deep in sorting out drill plans; and after what you've been through, the whole military base is on high alert."Everyone's under scrutiny. He can't break away from his duties during the day, so he's giving up his downtime just to be by your side. Trust me, General Morrison does care about you."Suzanne felt a little better hearing the reassurance. She snuggled into Emily's embrace like a kid seeking comfort. "Do you really think he cares about someone like me?"Emily continued to soothe her with gentle pats. "Mrs. Morrison, even though we've only known each other for a short time, I'm aware that you're a great person. Why doubt yourself?"It seemed like Suzanne had found someone to confide in. She held onto Emily's shoulder and tearfully exclaimed, "Emily, I truly love him. What should I do?"Emily grinned with a t

Chapter 79

As Nathan approached Suzanne, she felt his warmth and caught a whiff of his shampoo. Her heart started to race, and she had the urge to pull her hand back.Nathan held onto her hand, unwrapping the bandage to take a look at the wound. The stitches were still in place on her palm, and there was no sign of the wound scabbing over yet. Nathan's expression grew solemn.Suzanne felt a twinge of guilt and thought about pulling her hand back, but Nathan gripped it even tighter. He carefully rewrapped her wound and casually said, "This unscabbed wound needs to stay dry. I can help with bathing and changing the dressing. What do you say?"Her cheeks burned, and she whispered, "I've asked Emily for help.""Just let me know if you need anything. Hold off on going out until we arrest the culprit. Just give me a heads up if you want to go somewhere, I'll arrange for someone to protect you," Nathan advised.A sweet warmth suffused Suzanne as she watched him wrapping the bandage. She wishe

"I hope you and Dr. Lawrence from Norvania can collaborate and resolve this issue to maximize the potential of hydronium," Nathan said.Alan replied earnestly. Though deep down, he wasn't confident about it.…At noon, Lucas walked into the cafeteria with a tray in hand. Unsure about Suzanne's food preferences, he decided to scoop a bit of everything. The tray ended up stacked high with various dishes that could easily feed a person for a couple of days. As Lucas made his way out, he bumped into Nathan and Cole."General Morrison, good afternoon," Lucas greeted.Nathan gave a small nod in acknowledgment.Cole eyed the assortment of food on Lucas' tray and teased, "Hungry today? Do you think you can finish all of that?"Lucas shrugged. "I had no clue about Mrs. Morrison's food preferences, so I just grabbed a bit of everything. I didn't realize there'd be this much variety, and the tray filled up faster than I expected."Cole chuckled. "Judging by Mrs. Morrison's amazing fig
