Chapter 386
The next day, the Morrisons went to Sudvilla to visit Nathan. Around noon, Cole drove them back to Morrison Residence.
At the entrance, Cole ran into Mila.
Mila bumped into Cole after coming out from inside the residence. She hurried over and called, “Cole.”
Cole stopped in his tracks, frowning at her.
She asked worriedly, “How’s Nate doing?”
Cole replied curtly, “Thanks to Ms. Hoffis, General Morrison is doing fine now.”
Mila breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart still felt heavy. She was worried and unsure of how to express it.
He added, “General Morrison’s family all went to Sudvilla early this morning to see him. Now they just got back. So, why were you coming out from inside?”
Mila pointed toward the summerhouse and said, “I went to see Dan.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCole sucked in a deep breath. He placed his hands on his hips as his face turned pale.
He thought that if he ever ended up falling for a heartless and cruel woman like Mila, he’d rather strangle himself to death.
Cole held back his anger as he asked, “Ms. Hoffis, just how much does General Morrison bother you that you think it’s necessary to avoid him like the plague?”
Mila’s expression turned gloomy, wondering why Cole was so upset. “What do you
mean?
Cole crossed his arms and looked at Mila’s innocent face. He exclaimed, “Everyone who knows General Morrison knows that his first love, whom he deeply loves, is Sally Hoffis, or rather, Wanda Hoffis.”
Mila was taken aback.
He continued, “Actually, you know too. You know how much General Morrison loves what about you? You treat someone else’s affection as a burden and avoid it at all costs.
you. But
“General Morrison respects you. He gives you space and freedom. He finally gave up on you and chose a new life. But you suddenly went to the island and risked your life to save him. How do you expect him to feel?”
Mila was frozen in place. Her mood becincreasingly heavy.
So Nathan really moved on within a month and had already started a new life. Perhaps it was because Fenna was his long–tconfidante, so he was able to accept a new relationship so quickly.
Mila felt increasingly depressed as Cole continued to “denounce” her offenses.
“He took the bullet and risked his life for you. But you couldn’t even stay a little longer at the hospital to wait for him to wake up. Instead, you insisted on leaving. You said you were going

back to Sunterland, but aren’t you still in Norvania?
“You have the tto visit Daniel, but you don’t have the tto see General Morrison? Why? Is your tso precious that you can’t even spare a minute for him?”
Mila forced a bitter smile, feeling her heart had gone cold. “Cole, do you hatethat much? Do you have a problem with me?” she asked.
“No,” Cole replied, unhappy.
Mila continued to smile bitterly and said, “I can tell.”
Cole then asked, “Did you notice that I want you to visit General Morrison?”
Mila lowered her head. She was at war with herself as she tugged the hem of her clothes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCole noticed her small movements. He knew that she was hesitating.
He was truly exhausted. “Even if it’s a stranger. If someone saved you, isn’t it normal to visit them?” he said earnestly.
Mila suddenly had a realization. Indeed, it was normal for her to visit her lifesaver.
She didn’t need to care about what Fenna thought. She was visiting a sick person, not stealing someone else’s boyfriend. Why should she hesitate or worry about suspicions?
Mila looked sincerely at Cole and asked, “Can you driveto Sudvilla?”
Cole grinned, his smile appearing incredibly quick. He swiftly opened the car door and said politely, “Ms. Hoffis, please get in.” 1
It was a complete 180 from his earlier attitude. Mila wondered if his anger just now wasn’t genuine but an act.
She smiled helplessly before getting into the car. She even asked Cole to take her to a florist and a gift store when they were on their way to Sudvilla.
When they arrived at Sudvilla, it was already evening.
Mila nervously took a deep breath while holding the bouquet before gently knocking on the door.
“Cin,” ca low and weak voice. The man sounded drained and listless.
Mila opened the door and walked in.
