Everyone turned toward the sound.
Nathan strode forward angrily. Behind him were his left and right-
hand men-Cole and Lucas.
“General Morrison.” The soldiers quickly saluted him. With Nathan
around, their morale soared.
Suzanne who was behind the soldiers had remained calm throughout the ordeal. However, her eyes instantly watered when she saw
Nathan.
Right now, her heart was a mess.
She wasn’t afraid of false accusations nor was she concerned about
others’ opinions. But she didn’t want Nathan to misunderstand or
hate her.
Nathan had always been a man among men. The fact beceven clearer as he stood in front of Morgan.

at Nathan’s presence.
He lowered his voice. “General Morrison, there’s been a violation of the law. I’m only here to apprehend the criminal. Please tell your men to lower their weapons and hand her over. Don’t make this difficult for
me.”
Nathan cast a cold glance at Sally who was standing beside Morgan.
Sally swallowed and quickly faked a cry. She rushed over to Nathan.” Nate, Suzanne wants to kill me. You have to help me…”
Nathan extended a hand, pushing Sally away by the forehead. His

gaze darkened and he shot her a cold look.
Cole and Lucas immediately stepped forward at this and pulled Sally back.
Sally cried, “Nate, Suzanne wants to kill me! You always stood for justice! You can’t favor the criminal!”
Suzanne wanted to explain the situation to Nathan. However, she
was tongue-tied and couldn’t find the right words against Sally’s silver tongue.
Morgan sneered. “I have always stood for justice as well. Therefore, I must apprehend the criminal today.”
Nathan’s eyes darkened and he ordered sternly, “Sally Hoffis, drop the charges now.”
Sally wiped away her tears pitifully and shook her head. “Nate, I can’t. Suzanne wants to kill me. I must send her to jail.”
“That’s not true,” Suzanne’s grievance-filled voice sounded.
Nathan turned to Suzanne at the sound.
Tears threatened to fall from Suzanne’s eyes. A mixture of stubbornness and vulnerability flashed in her eyes, and she was constantly on edge.
In the past, Nathan would never spare those who harmed Sally. He had always protected her since childhood.
Now, things had taken a turn. His protectiveness seemed to have shifted to Suzanne.
Nathan softened at Suzanne’s glistening eyes.
He ordered, “Cole, check the surveillance cameras.”
Before Cole could respond, Morgan butted in, “I’ve reviewed the

Nathan huffed coldly. “There are no defective pieces of equipment under my command.”
Morgan was bewildered.
Nathan continued firmly, “Cole, send someone from the IT
department, and tell them to bring their tools along.”
“Right away.”. Cole turned and left.
Nathan’s authoritative voice rang again, “Lucas.”
‘At your service, General Morrison.” Lucas stepped forward.
“Bringa chair,” Nathan said.
“Of course.” Lucas turned and left.
Morgan smiled. “You’re too kind, General Morrison. I’m just doing my job…”
Nathan ignored him.
Lucas brought the chair over. Morgan smiled and continued to misunderstand the situation.
“You really don’t have to do this. Like I said, I’m just doing my job
