The Wrong Woman
Chapter 383

So that was the truth.

Fenna noticed Mila looking pale and in a daze. Her tone filled with concern as she asked, What’swrong?”

“N–Nothing,” Mila replied as she forced a smile, trying to conceal her sadness.

Fenna stood up and frowned at her. She asked, “Did you just replace out about us being together? DidNate not tell you?”

Mila shook her head with a smile. Tears already welled up in her eyes, and she couldn’t hold back anylonger.

She pretended to remain calm and replied, “It’s not his fault. I made it clear that we couldn’t stay asfriends and to not keep in touch. It’s normal for him not to tell me.”

“Oh, I see,” Fenna replied.

Mila forced an awkward smile,

“When are you going back to Sunterland?” Fenna asked.

Mila hesitated for a moment. She touched the box in her pocket. Knowing that the hydronium was stillthere, she replied, “This week.”

“What do you do in Sunterland? I noticed you always want to leave. Are you really willing to leavebehind your grandfather and his huge conglomerate?”

Mila lowered her head with a bitter smile. She sneaked another glance at Nathan. Her heart ached,tears pooling in her eyes as she said, “I’m not.”

Her unwillingness referred to Nathan, not the meaningless property.

Fenna’s expression slightly darkened. She sounded slightly nervous as she said, “You… aren’tleaving?”

Mila secretly wiped away her tears. She smiled as she looked up. “I am leaving. There are urgentmatters that I need to handle.”

“Best of luck with your work.”

Mila was sorrowful as she secretly glanced at Nathan again. Now, even if she wanted to look at him,she could do it in secret.

After all, he was someone else’s boyfriend. And in the future, he would be someone else’s husband.

Come to think of it, it wasn’t bad at all. The two were quite a good match.

Mila endured her pain silently. Her voice was slightly hoarse as she said, “I wish you both happiness,”

Fenna smiled and said, “We will, thank you.

Mila immediately turned, unable to hold back her tears any longer, and they streamed down

her face. She felt a twinge of heartache, a discomfort that was hard to bear.

Mila knew that no one in this world would wait forever. Why should a man as excellent as Nathan waitfor her?

He had previously said he would wait for her for five years. But she rejected him. It was understandablethat he wouldn’t wait.

Mila left the ward with tears in her eyes.

At the door, she met Cole, who was still upset. She quickly wiped away her tears and tried to be

calm.

Cole was confused when he saw her coming out. “Is there anything wrong, Ms. Hoffis?” he asked.

Mila replied, “It’s nothing. I’ll get going first.”

Cole was puzzled. “You’re leaving? Where are you going?”

Mila looked at the sky and said, “Back to Sunterland.”

Cole was anxious. “Aren’t you waiting for General Morrison to wake

up?

Mila exhaled slowly, feeling her heart panicking. She said softly, “I’m not going to wait anymore. He hasFenna by his side.”

Cole clenched his fists. He felt resentful and upset for Nathan. He also began to harbor a dislike towardMila.

He thought Nathan’s sincere feelings had been wasted on her. Why did he have to fall for such aheartless and cruel woman?

He thought she went to the island alone to rescue Nathan because she loved him. But the truth wasbeyond his expectations.

After a moment of contemplation, Mila sáid softly, “Cole, if Nate wakes up without any issues, can yousend me a message to let me know he’s safe?”

Cole coldly snorted in his heart. He grumbled, “I don’t think it’s necessary. Doesn’t General Morrisonhave Ms. Hudson by his side?”

His words pierced Mila’s heart. It hurt so much that she couldn’t even speak a word. Her tear. ductswere so sensitive, so she was unable to bear such harsh words.

Without saying a word, she strode away briskly. She wiped away her tears, biting her lip to endure thepain.

She didn’t blame anyone but herself for not cherishing Nathan. When she wanted to cherish Nathan,he no longer wanted her.
