After lunch, as Mila was about to leave for the hospital, Wendy cornered her for a chat.
"Mila, is Nate seeing someone else?" Wendy asked, her tone laced with mystery.
"No, absolutely not!" Mila was caught off guard.
Wendy arched an eyebrow skeptically. "Something feels off. He acts so jittery around you and cares about you, but your attitude toward him seems distant, especially since you had the baby. There must be sissues between you two!"
Mila smiled, feeling pressured to protect Nathan's reputation. She quickly explained, "Nathan isn't having an affair, Wendy, please don't overthink."
"Why, then?"
"It's all in the past." Mila didn't want to dwell on it as it was a matter between her and Nathan.

"You have to adjust sooner rather than later. He's committed to the nation, comrades, and people. He can't belong to you alone, do you understand?"

All of a sudden, Mila felt a weight lift off her shoulders.

Feeling relieved, Mila smiled and said, "Thank you, Wendy."

DramaMila smiled subtly and nodded. "All right, I'll cto you when I can."
Wendy patted Mila's shoulder and said, "Off you go."
Mila exited the house and settled into the car beside Nathan.
Concerned she might get cold, Nathan reached behind for a blanket and draped it over her legs.

"His nose is so tiny, can he breathe properly?" Mila asked. She reached feel out a finger to feel the baby's breath, only easing her worry when she sensed his gentle exhale.
