Chapter 430Nathan wasn’t sure why Mila was crying—maybe she didn’t want to
leave, or perhaps she just felt guilty. All he knew was that hearing her
voice made him feel okay.Even though Nathan and Mila were never officially together, the intense
pain he felt in his chest-was unbearable. It was as if his heart was
being torn apart, and he wished he could just end the pain by dying. He
wanted to tell her so many things, but he knew he wouldn’t get the
chance anymore.“I have to go take care of something, so I’ll hang up now,” Nathan said
calmly.He wanted to hang up before his emotions got the better of him. He
was afraid that if he didn’t hang up soon, he might end up buying a
plane ticket on impulse, and fly to Mila to make her stay with him.
After hanging up, Nathan tossed his phone onto the desk. He sank into
his chair, feeling, completely powerless, as if his spirit had abandoned
him. He leaned his head back and shut his eyes.To withstand the torment, he clenched his fists so tightly that they
quivered, and veins stood out on his skin. The pain was so strong that
tears trickled down from the corners of his eyes.These days, merely dreaming of Mila brought him anguish. He was far
from resilient when it came to matters of the heart. Slowly, tears began
flowing uncontrollably. They followed the contours of his face,
streaming down until they reached the sides of his ears.Suddenly, there came a knock on the office door. Nathan turned his
chair to face away from the door. He took a deep breath and quietly
wiped the tears from his eyes.Cole walked in, looking nervous. “General Morrison, the Intelligence
Agency has informed us that the traitor and Oliver have sneaked into
the country by boat. They’ve landed and disappeared without a trace.”
“You mean Lucas?” Nathan asked calmly.“Yes, Lucas, the traitor,” Cole replied grimly. “He’ll do anything for
money, even betraying you. I’ll shoot him dead if I catch him.”
Realizing that Mila must be their main reason for risking entry into
Norvania, Nathan swiftly pulled out his phone and dialed Phoebe’s
number.Phoebe answered the phone quickly. She politely asked, “General
Morrison, is everything1/2+15 BONUSMila couldn’t help but cry. She scolded, “Nate, can’t you stop being so
nice to me? Can’t be a little selfish? You’re breaking my heart.”you Ads by PubFuture
Nathan forced a smile. “Being selfish would only make things worse for
you. Do you truly want me to be selfish?” ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ ꜰindNovel.ɴetFindNovel.net“I do,” Mila replied. But then, she felt conflicted and shook her head.
“Yet, I don’t. I’m notsure.”“Don’t think too hard about it. Trust your instincts. You’re not
responsible for me, so don’t stress over me. I’m tougher than you
realize, and I’ve been in love with you all along, even if you haven’t felt
the same. So, don’t worry too much.” Nathan’s voice grew calmer.
Mila wiped her tears. She recalled his vow to wait five years for her and
wondered if he would still keep it.“Nate, I—” Mila began, then halted. Suddenly, she realized the
selfishness of asking him to wait another fiveyears.The thought of the situation she might put Nathan in if she couldn’t
return after five years weighed heavily on her. It would undoubtedly
shatter his heart. Five years later, he’d be in his 30s and possibly with
children old enough for kindergarten.“What’s wrong?” Nathan asked.—~ Feeling a pang of pain, Mila held her chest and whispered, “Nate,

would return to Norvania. Just hearing her voice through the phone
again was enough to make him feelcontent.
