Semua Bab The Wrong Woman: Bab 231 - Bab 240

Suzanne was forced onto Nathan's strong thigh. Her body tensed up and she sank into a sea of nervousness. Nathan wrapped one arm around her waist. His other hand played with her long hair. His mesmerizing eyes added to the allure as he whispered in her ear, "Chubs, from now on, call me Nate or darling."The word "darling" struck Suzanne like a bolt of lightning. It left her both nervous and flustered. With a blush, she lowered her head and said quietly, "Can I call you Nate?""Yes," Nathan replied. His Adam's apple bobbed as he studied her profile intently. Suzanne nervously fidgeted with her fingers. "Nate, you don't have to force yourself to get close to me physically. Bonding happens one step at a time."Nathan moistened his dry lips. His slender fingers glided gently over her face, through her hair, and around her ears, which turned rosy. He cupped the back of her head and spoke in a seductive, low voice, "I'm not forcing myself."Suzanne closed her eyes nervously. Her brea

Nathan's expression grew unusually grim. He glanced at Suzanne before him, then paced as he spoke firmly into the phone, "Madam Hoffis, Suzanne is my wife. Please watch your words."As Suzanne watched Nathan leave, she plopped down on the couch and flung a cushion in a huff. It was bad enough having to deal with Sally. Even her grandmother was being unreasonable to her. Suzanne assumed that rich people were used to being bossy.After hanging up, Nathan returned and set the phone down on the table. "Don't let any of her unkind words bother you."Suzanne glanced up at him. She had become immune to such words over the past three years. She used to get upset over them. Now, she didn't even care about those words because she knew she wasn't Suzanne. What mattered to her was Nathan's attitude."Are you standing up for Sally or Madam Hoffis?" Suzanne asked in a disgruntled tone.Nathan could sense her displeasure. After a moment's thought, he said, "Neither.""Madam Hoffis may look

Oliver shot a menacing stare and licked the blood from the corner of his mouth. He grinned viciously. Nathan held himself back from hitting him and shoved him to the ground. Having vented his rage, he pulled out a handkerchief to clean his hands and turned away.Sally blocked his path with both of her hands in displeasure. "You think you can just hit somebody and walk away? Do you care to explain why you did that?"Nathan stared at her in disgust. She had become so unfamiliar to him. She had made a disgrace of her name and her place in his heart. He brushed past her and left Hoffis Manor behind.Sally was startled. She seemed to realize something. She hurried into the study and turned on the listening devices, only to find that they were all out of order. Her face turned pale, and she slumped into a chair.After a few moments, Sally came rushing out of the study. She found Oliver sitting on the couch. He clenched his teeth as he rubbed salve on his wounds."Uncle Oliver," Sall

When Suzanne arrived at the hospital with Nathan, the area outside the emergency room was packed with the Morrisons. Their faces were solemn.Daniel hadn't returned home in five years, and now that he was back, it was a matter of life and death. Florence had broken down crying outside the emergency room and was taken to a ward for treatment with intravenous liquids.Earlier, Daniel had been taken to the hospital by two policemen in plain clothes. Suzanne didn't have to ask to understand what was going on.Daniel was rescued over six hours, and it wasn't until the early hours that the doctor emerged from the emergency room. All the Morrisons surrounded the doctor with concern and asked about Daniel's condition.The doctor looked exhausted. He sighed and shook his head. "The situation is not promising. The patient is still in critical condition and has been moved to the ICU for observation. His survival will be a matter of his willpower."Gary could no longer support himself and s

Suzanne was having breakfast in the living room. She was scrolling through her phone to catch up on the news about yesterday's failed missile launch that landed on the Muzat border. Norvania had been roundly condemned, with reports from Muzat and other international news agencies claiming hundreds of deaths. They demanded the highest compensation and apologies.According to Norvania, the missile had strayed off course and accidentally hit a major drug den along the Muzat border. Tons of drugs and hundreds of drug lords were wiped out in the blast.Suzanne grew increasingly worried as she read on.Although the world leaders knew that Norvania's missile had destroyed a drug den, they seemed to turn a blind eye. Instead, they were intent on stirring up tension and trouble.Just then, the voice of the housekeeper broke in, "Mr. Morrison, good morning."Suzanne snapped out of her thoughts and hurried into the foyer. Panting slightly, she glanced nervously at Nathan, who was still as
