The Wrong Woman

Nathan had strikingly handsome and manly features. Every detail of his appearance sparked endless imagination. Even his stubble added to his rugged charm.

It had been a while since Mila had looked at Nathan's face so intently. His clear complexion, straight nose, soft lips, and appealing Adam's apple were all things she found irresistible. She couldn't help but pursed her lips.

Suddenly, Nathan turned his head.

Startled, Mila quickly looked away, threw off the covers, and went to the bathroom to prepare for the day.

Nathan was still asleep.

After freshening up, changing into her outdoor attire, and grabbing her backpack, Mila headed downstairs. She planned to go with Phoebe to pick up her child from the hospital after having her breakfast.

Mila found Phoebe and Cole sitting on the couch, engaged in a warm chat in the living room. After greeting them, Mila settled down for breakfast. She caught snippets of their conversation. "Did you stay up all night? You look exhausted," Phoebe asked.

Cole gave a bitter laugh. "Yeah, pretty much. General Morrison wanted everything done before he got back today. He was working on stuff until he caught his flight this morning. I barely got any sleep, maybe two hours."

Concerned, Phoebe suggested, "You should go rest now."

"I can't do that. We've got to be ready by 7:00 am to pick up General Morrison's son from the hospital. I can't afford to sleep anymore."

"You shouldn't drive when you're so tired. Who would feel safe riding with you?" Phoebe pointed out.

"You can drive." Cole grinned.

After quickly eating something, Mila entered the living room. "Cole, go rest. We'll reschedule picking up my son for the afternoon."

Cole was pleasantly surprised. "Really?"

With a smile, Mila nodded at Cole and headed upstairs.

Back in the room, Mila picked up Nathan's phone and saw he had set an alarm for 7:15 am. It was about to go off. She deleted the alarm and closed the curtains tighter.

The sun shone brightly outside at noon, and the weather was delightful.

In the living room, Mila was seated with the Morrisons on the couch, savoring tea and snacks while chatting casually.

All of a sudden, hurried footsteps resounded from the staircase.

Everyone's attention shifted toward the stairs as Nathan, dressed in a black coat, hurried down white ving his watch. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

"Nate, when did you return?" Florence was surprised.

Intrigued, Wendy chimed in, "Why the rush? Is something wrong?"

Breathing heavily, Nathan nervously fixed his gaze on Mila, his expression betraying a sense of guilt. The alarm hadn't gone off, and he had failed to keep his promise to Mila once again.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

He dreaded the thought that if he continued behaving like this, his marriage might be at risk.

"Is our son back?" Nathan whispered anxiously as he quickly approached Mila.

Before Mila could respond, Florence interjected, "Not yet. Wanda mentioned she'd wait for you to wake up and have lunch together before heading out."

Nathan was taken aback, his expression a mix of surprise and gratitude as he looked at Mila. Could it be that her distant demeanor had softened because their child was returning? Regardless, the situation was looking up.

He couldn't help but smile as he bypassed the couch and settled beside Mila Ne murmured, "Sorry, I overslept."

"It's okay," Mila replied casually.

"Do I need to prepare anything?" Nathan asked.

"No need."

Wendy frowned as she observed the interaction between the two, feeling suspicious Specwondered why their relationship seemed to be growing more distant.

Could it be that Nathan had cheated on Mila during her pregnancy? After all, Wendy believed that men were all motivated by their desires.
