Chapter 606
"If Yale is in the clear, there's no reason for Nathan to feel anxious about his blood. But if there's a problem with Yale, Nathan would undoubtedly take swift action."
Cole's realization hit him like a ton of bricks. "Mrs. Morrison, are you suggesting that General Morrison's true motive isn't to obtain Yale's blood for DNA analysis? Perhaps he's orchestrating this ruse to provoke Yale's suspicion, prompting the man to retaliate against him."
Mila nodded. "That's my theory."
"But why would General Morrison do that?" Cole asked.
Mila, too, struggled to understand Nathan's motive. Confusion clouded her mind.
Rubbing her temples, Mila thought for a moment before asking, "Cole, has Nate given you any unusual instructions recently or asked you to place anything in the car?"
Cole suddenly recalled and exclaimed, "Yes, he did. General Morrison taskedwith fetching a professional diving pump with oxygen from the arsenal a couple of days ago, along with a specialized hammer for breaking car windows."
A faint smile crept onto Mila's lips, dispelling the sadness and despair that had plagued her in recent days. Every worry she had morphed into a source of determination.
The weight that had burdened her heart lifted at last.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTears welled in Mila's eyes as she retrieved her phone, rereading the last message Nathan had sent her: "Stay calm, wait for my return."
Mila bit her lip, a whirlwind of emotions raging within her. "When you cback, we need to have a serious conversation," she silently pledged. "Risking your life in such a dangerous plan without discussing it withfirst-is that fair to Jasper andif something goes wrong?"
Unable to suppress his curiosity, Cole asked, "Mrs. Morrison, what is General Morrison's plan exactly? Where is he?"
"I'm not entirely sure," Mila admitted. She didn't have a clear grasp of Nathan's intentions, but she knew they were all part of his calculated strategy.
"So, what's our next move?" Cole asked.
"Keep up the search as usual. Avoid investigating Yale or getting too close to him. Also, do not assign anyone to track him under any circumstances. Simply regard him as inconsequential. Concentrate on your duties and avoid disrupting Nate's plan," Mila directed.
Cole nodded in acknowledgment. "Got it, Mrs. Morrison."
Mila added, "And keep this information to yourself. Don't discuss it with anyone."
"Consider it done."
In the early spring, the streets were bathed in radiant sunshine, with vibrant green shoots beginning to emerge.
Accompanied by Phoebe, Mila took
Jasper to the hospital for his
check-up and vaccinations. After the appointment, they ventured to a nearby mall, browsing for clothes
and essentials for Jasper. Content
To their surprise, they ran into Fenna and Lillian, whom they hadn't seen since the wedding reception a month prior.
It seemed that Fenna and Lillian were also shopping for baby supplies, hinting at Lillian's recent pregnancy.
As Mila approached Lillian to greet her, she was met with a cold reception.
Fenna, on the other hand, wore a look of disdain as she angrily exclaimed, "With Nate's life on the line and his whereabouts unknown, how can you justify shopping here?"
Mila shot back, "What other choice do I have? Should I spend every day at hgrieving? Or should I dive into the river each day, searching for my possibly deceased husband?" Through gritted teeth, Fenna retorted, "Nate won't die."
Mila let out a weary sigh before remarking, "Ms. Hudson, your love runs deep, doesn't it? It's just unfortunate that you're directing it toward the wrong person."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFenna's fists clenched, her expression twisted with anger. "A woman like you doesn't deserve Nate," she spat out.
Mila replied indifferently, "I
apologize, but Nathan is still my
husband, regardless of whether he's dead or alive. My worthiness to him is not for you to judge. Even in death,
I have the sole right to be buried beside him."
Fenna's rage intensified at Mila's words.
With Phoebe and Jasper in tow, Mila turned to walk away.
As she took a step, she couldn't help but overhear Lillian's words. "Fenna, don't waste your targuing with a slut like her. She's got sserious tricks up her sleeve. Every man wants to be with her." Content
Mila had initially intended to leave the situation gracefully, but Lillian's derogatory remarks pushed her past her limit.
Regardless of Lillian's status as the president's daughter, Mila decided to confront her directly.
She entrusted Jasper to Phoebe's care and instructed her to wait at the store's entrance.
