Suzanne snapped back to reality, feeling a wave of embarrassment and shyness as she averted her gaze. She quickly disengaged from Nathan’s embrace.
Her cheeks flushed with warmth as she questioned, “Aren’t you busy? Why are you here?”
Nathan replied, “I just finished up.”
“Okay,” Suzanne responded quietly.
Taking her hand in his, Nathan led her toward the monitoring room. Come with me to check on Liam again.”
As they walked side by side, Suzanne couldn’t help but be fixated on their intertwined hands. Her heart fluttered with warmth, her palm tingling with anticipation, her pulse quickening.

Outside the monitoring room, Nathan’s gaze was solemn as he observed Liam inside. His voice carried a weight as he asked, “Any improvement in Liam’s condition?”
Suzanne shook her head slightly. “No, the doctor said it’s a miracle he held on this long.”
Nathan’s eyes filled with sadness as he uttered, “Miracles can still happen.”

On the other end of the call, Sienna’s voice sounded urgent. “Suzanne, quick, tune into the Citizen’s Broadcast.”
“What broadcast?” Suzanne asked in puzzlement.
“It’s on the news channel, an interview program on the citizens. Look

When she saw the three people being interviewed in the studio, she froze.

The York family also revealed Suzanne’s marriage to Nathan, the Defense General of Norvania. They spun scandalous tales about her, shocking the entire Norvania media and dominating the headlines.
Suzanne watched the program, seething with anger as tears streamed down her face. Her family’s actions were despicable!
They tarnished Nathan’s reputation worldwide, subjecting Suzanne to public scrutiny in Norvania, and disgracing the Morrison family.
With trembling fingers, Suzanne tried to call Betty, but it went straight to voicemail. She hurried back to the living room, sinking onto the sofa, and anxiously dialed Sienna’s number.
Struggling to speak, she managed to say, “Sienna, what should I do? They’re all despicable.”
Trying to calm Suzanne down, Sienna said, “Let’s take a moment to think calmly. Don’t panic.”
Furious and overwhelmed with emotion, Suzanne exclaimed, “I never thought they’d stoop this low! Now, the whole country sees Nathan’s wife as nothing but a woman with a tainted reputation.
“What about his honor? What about the reputation of the Morrison family?”
