The Wrong Woman

Chapter 384

After Mila left the hospital, she looked for an ATM. She entered her bank card and password and withdrew some money. With the money, she bought a plane ticket to Norvania.

On the plane, she couldn’t hold back her tears and cried all the way. When she reached Norvania, her eyes were swollen and red.

Phoebe was shocked to see her in such a state. Her first question was, “Mila, is Mr. Morrison dead?”

Hearing Phoebe’s question made Mila’s already grieving heart feel even more distressed. She disregarded all the decorum and hugged Phoebe, crying her eyes out.

“Mila, the dead cannot be brought back to life. Please accept my condolences,” Phoebe comforted her with tears in her eyes.

On the way back, Mila cried herself to exhaustion and fell asleep in the car. After reaching Hoffis Manor, she showered and went straight to bed.

She slept for a solid 15 hours.

Zach and Loretta asked Phoebe what had happened. Phoebe said, “Mr. Morrison passed away.”

The couple was shocked and saddened. They decided to ask Cole to clarify the situation. Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

Loretta called Cole and put the phone on speaker.

Zach and Phoebe leaned in, listening attentively.

Loretta’s tone was somber as she asked, “Cole, did Nate pass away?”

Cole was stunned. He replied, “Madam Hoffis, who told you General Morrison passed away?” The three of them exchanged glances.

Loretta paused for a moment before asking, “He didn’t?”

“Of course not,” Cole was a bit annoyed as he replied, “General Morrison just came back and is resting at Sudvilla. He’s injured, but it’s not fatal.”

“Then why is my granddaughter so heartbroken?” Loretta asked worriedly. “Her eyes are swollen from crying, and she’s been sleeping in her room for over ten hours. She also refused to eat or drink, and didn’t want to wake up.

“I have no idea. Maybe General Morrison delayed her plans to return to Sunterland.‘ Phoebe nodded. “That’s possible,” she whispered.

Loretta said, “Well, I won’t bother you anymore. Please give Nate my regards and wish him a speedy recovery.”

“Okay. Thank you, Madam,” Cole replied before hanging up.

The three of them exchanged glances again.

At Sudvilla, Cole pocketed his phone and turned to see Fenna. He politely greeted her, “Hello, Ms. Hudson.”

Fenna nodded and asked, “Where’s Nate?”

Cole pointed upstairs and sa

Cole pointed upstairs and said, “General Morrison is awake, but he’s very weak. He’s resting. upstairs now.

Curious, Fenna asked, “Is his injury serious?”

Cole shook his head. “It’s not a serious wound. I heard he was seriously injured on the island. and was kept in a water dungeon for two days.

“He nearly died from excessive bleeding. After that, he was rescued. He was still recovering from his previous injury, but then he was shot again. That’s why he’s so weak.”

Fenna turned and went upstairs. “I’ll go check on him.”

She knocked on the door.

“Come in,” Nathan’s voice sounded somewhat excited.

Fenna pushed open the door and walked in.

Nathan was leaning against the headboard. He looked a bit weak and tired. His face was pale, and he seemed to be low in spirit.

When Fenna entered the room, his gaze shifted from anticipation to disappointment. He dropped his head in despair as he stared blankly at the phone screen.

Fenna walked over with a smile. She said, “Do you think Wanda will come to see you?”

Nathan remained composed and stayed silent. He just lightly touched the phone screen with his fingers.

Fenna approached to have a look. It was a private chat with Mila, but there were no new messages at all.

The last voice message was from a month ago. It was sent by Nathan, but she didn’t reply.

Fenna pursed her lips. She shook her head and said, “You’ve sent her so many voice messages and texts before, but she always ignored them. Why don’t you try sending a message and see if she’ll respond?”

Nathan slowly turned off the screen and placed the phone on the bedside table. He wearily closed his eyes, then tilted his head back against the headboard.
