Chapter 141 Damage Control

The news of Simon’s arrest spread like wildfire, reaching the halls of Rosedale Hospital in Steinheim.Stuart Colman received a letter from the army, his face growing increasingly dark as he read the contents.He summoned Abby into his office and handed the letter to her. ‘Take a look at this.’Abby’s brows furrowed as she read the letter, her eyes widening in shock. ‘Simon… arrested?’Stuart nodded, his expression mirroring his daughter’s. ‘For espionage and theft and resisting arrest. Apparently, he tried to run when they came for him.’Abby read the letter again, too stunned to fully process its meaning.Despite the impending divorce between her and Simon, a part of her still held feelings for him.She clutched the letter tightly, her mind racing with thoughts. ‘I can’t believe this.’When she manoeuvred to get Simon to go to Valour Ridge Military Academy, she only did it with the hope that Simon would see the true colours of Callie, who’d hooked up with someone more powerful than

Chapter 142 Shooting Practice

Angelia’s frustration was palpable as she muttered, ‘Abusing your power as the principal, aren’t you?’Elias leaned back in his chair. ‘Changing personnel at the health centre is well within my purview.’Angelia took a deep breath, her expression strained. ‘Fine.’She turned abruptly and stormed out of the office, her footsteps echoing down the hallway.Elias watched her leave, his face a mask of resolve.As the door closed behind her, his attention turned to his computer clock.Noticing the time, he quickly logged off and pushed away from his desk.It was time to take Callie to lunch.***After lunch, Elias guided Callie down a series of hallways within the academy.With each step, Callie’s intrigue grew. ‘I’ve never been to this part of campus before. Where are we going?’‘You’ll know soon enough.’ Stopping before a set of grand double doors, Elias turned to Callie with a dramatic flourish. ‘Ready for this?’Callie’s eyes widened as the doors swung open to reveal a sprawling indoor

Chapter 143 Honeymoon

‘It’s more interesting than you think.’ Callie raised the journal over her head to show him. ‘It’s about using drones to support medical field care when casualty evacuation isn’t an option. This model here can keep whole blood and other crucial items refrigerated in the autonomous portable refrigeration unit and take it to medics in the field on the frontline.’‘Sounds…interesting.’ Elias pinched her cheek. ‘Bunny, you should start packing.’Callie glanced up at him, her eyebrows furrowing in confusion. ‘Packing? Why?’Elias’s smile was enigmatic. ‘Because tomorrow afternoon, at fourteen thirty hours, to be precise, I’ll be picking you up.’Callie’s eyes widened in surprise. ‘Picking me up? For what?’Elias leaned in, his voice a whisper. ‘For our honeymoon, Bunny.’A mixture of surprise and delight washed over Callie’s features. ‘Honeymoon? Elias, you planned this?’Elias nodded, a twinkle in his eyes. ‘It’s a surprise, Bunny. Just make sure you pack everything you’ll need for a few

Chapter 144 First Love

Elias kept his eyes on the road ahead. ‘Well, she was particularly beautiful.’Callie’s lips twitched, her tone laced with feigned indifference. ‘Of course, she must have been.’Elias’s eyes sparkled with mischief. ‘And smart. Very smart.’Callie raised an eyebrow, her playful façade cracking slightly. ‘Naturally. What else?’‘Considerate. She had a big heart.’Callie huffed softly, crossing her arms. ‘Sounds like quite the catch.’Elias’s grin widened. ‘You could say that.’Callie’s curiosity gave way to a touch of irritation.She uncrossed her arms and looked at Elias pointedly. ‘Are you being honest with me?’Elias nodded. ‘Of course. I wouldn’t lie to you.’Callie let out a small sigh, her emotions swirling within her.She pouted slightly, her eyes narrowing. ‘Well, isn’t that just great? Your first love sounds like she was perfect.’Elias nodded again. ‘She was. Still is.’Callie said grumpily, ‘You could have lied a little.’‘You deserve the truth.’Callie looked away, unsure if

Chapter 145 Honeymoon Suite

Elias eased back, his fingers lingering on her cheek as he caressed it gently. ‘Don’t worry, Bunny. The honeymoon’s just beginning. We’ve arrived.’Callie blinked, peering through the rain-streaked glass.The downpour had turned everything into a blurry landscape.‘Where are we?’ she asked, trying hard to make out her surroundings.‘Wingston Outpost. It used to be a military outpost built over a hundred years ago, hence the name, but now it’s turned into a small tourist town and known simply as Wingston.’Callie squinted hard and gradually discerned where they’d stopped—it seemed like a yard, perhaps a car park, and in the distance, a building beckoned through the curtain of rain.Elias’s warm hand closed around hers. ‘Shall we?’She nodded.With a purposeful grip, he led her out of the jeep, their footsteps splashing in puddles as they sprinted through the downpour.‘Come on, Bunny!’ Elias called over the sound of the rain, his voice holding a hint of exhilaration.Their laughter int

Chapter 146 Bubble Party

Callie gaped at Elias as he settled into the tub.His dark hair was damp, droplets of water trickling down his broad shoulders.He scooted closer to her until their sides brushed against each other.‘Get out of your wet clothes, he said. Enjoy a peaceful bath, he said,’ Callie muttered under her breath, rolling her eyes.Elias laughed heartily, the sound echoing off the tiled walls. ‘Well, I don’t know about you, but I find this bath far more entertaining now.’With a theatrical sigh, Callie leaned back against the edge of the tub, her lips curving into a small smile. ‘Oh, really? And what exactly makes this bath so... entertaining?’Elias’s grin turned wicked as he reached out and gently tugged at one of her loose curls. ‘Well, for starters, the company is much better than any scented candle.’Her cheeks flushed, but she refused to let him see how his words affected her.Instead, she shot back, ‘You know, I was actually enjoying a peaceful moment until someone decided to crash my bub

Chapter 147 Shooting Competition

The menu at the restaurant was a symphony of flavours, paying tribute to the diverse culinary preferences of soldiers hailing from around the world.The dishes ranged from familiar comfort foods to exotic delights.‘Soldier’s Stew’ promised a hearty blend of meats and vegetables, evoking memories of rations shared during campaigns.‘Sergeant’s Surf & Turf’ boasted succulent cuts of meat and fresh seafood.The lighting, subdued yet warm, cast a gentle glow reminiscent of soldiers finding solace around a flickering campfire after a long day.Soft chatter and laughter intertwined with the subtle background music, creating an ambience that resonated with both camaraderie and romance.‘It almost feels like I’m back at the academy,’ Callie said. ‘But with better-smelling food.’The waitstaff, dressed in uniforms that mirrored military attire from various eras, moved with disciplined grace.Their attentive service echoed the dedication and precision that defined soldiers in the field.Each d

Chapter 148 Hasty Harry

Callie and Elias approached the stand and examined the array of pottery on display.Callie’s fingers trailed over the delicate edges of a vase, her touch as gentle as a whisper. ‘These pieces are so unique. Each one tells a story.’Elias nodded in agreement. ‘Yeah, they have a certain charm to them.’As Callie explored the different items, Elias’s phone buzzed in his pocket.He pulled it out to see it was a text message.[Harriet Daniels]: Just finished a mission. Got promoted to lieutenant colonel. Have a holiday coming up. Will come look for you at Valour Ridge.Elias’s brows furrowed slightly as he read the message.He didn’t reply, instead tucking the phone back into his pocket.Callie returned to his side, carrying a small handmade pottery piece shaped like a bunny and another shaped like a wolf.She held them up for him to see, her eyes dancing with mischief. ‘Look, Elias! A bunny and a wolf. Don’t they remind you of us?’Elias chuckled, his gaze moving from the pottery to Calli

Chapter 149 Movie Night

‘I’m not on campus right now,’ Elias said.‘Oh. Too bad.’ Harriet shrugged off the disappointing news. ‘Never mind then. Is Lemuel on campus?’‘You’ll have to ask him. It’s a holiday, and most folks have cleared out.’‘I’ll call him, then.’Before Elias could respond, the line went dead, leaving him holding the phone to his ear.He shook his head with an amused smile and slid his phone back into his pocket.Harriet was as impulsive as ever, always charging ahead with a fire in her heart that few could match.General McCullough’s niece was a whirlwind of energy and spontaneity.Elias had lived with Harriet and Hershel for a while after his parents died.She was like a sister to him, which made the prospect of Hershel’s matchmaking all the more absurd.With Callie on his mind, Elias quickened his pace.The lift whisked him up to the suite.Callie greeted him with a sheepish smile.She was fully dressed now and no longer clad in the delicate lingerie that had set his libido in overdrive.

Chapter 150 Maple Forest

Elias yanked up the blanket to cover himself and gnashed his teeth in mock exasperation. ‘Just wait till your Aunt Flo leaves, let’s see if you’ll still be able to laugh then.’Callie stuck out her tongue. ‘Relax. It’s perfectly normal for a man to—’In a swift move that was all Elias, he caught her shoulders and pulled her down, their lips meeting in a passionate, searing kiss that left her breathless.Callie waved the white flag before things got out of control.After washing up, they went downstairs for breakfast.‘Where are we going?’ Callie asked as she climbed into the jeep.‘A little place I know,’ he said cryptically.The morning sun painted the town in warm hues as they drove out of the carpark.The scent of fresh dew hung in the air, mingling with the promise of the day ahead.As they drove on, the town of Wingston gradually faded in the rearview mirror, replaced by the embrace of nature’s splendour.A short while later, Elias parked the car at the edge of a gravel path, lea
