“Humans can be even more terrifying than beasts when they lose their
sanity.” Nathan sighed.Sensing Nathan’s gloominess and recalling how Lucas had betrayed
him, Cole stepped forward and pledged, “General Morrison, I’ll never
betray you for money like that scoundrel, Lucas. You can trust me
completely. I’m fully devoted to you, without any doubt.”Nathan felt a twinge of gratitude as he responded, “I trust you.”
“Thank you, General Morrison,” Cole responded solemnly.As the night deepened, the lights in the military base office continued to
glow, burning through the darkness.When Mila woke up the next day, her eyes were red and swollen from
crying. She had a rough night’s sleep, and her face was still puffy. After
freshening up, she put on a simple dress, slung a black shoulder bag
over her shoulder, tied her hair into a ponytail, and went downstairs.
Phoebe and Simon were having breakfast. Phoebe got up, but before
she could say anything, Mila spoke first, “I need to go to the Morrison
residence. Phoebe, come with me.”Phoebe looked confused while Simon nervously stood up and said,
“Wanda, we’re flying back this afternoon. Why do you need to go
anywhere else?”Mila stopped in her tracks and spoke sincerely, “I’m planning to
convince Dan to join us to Sunterland for treatment.””Why?” Phoebe asked.FindNovel.net”The traditional medicine there has proven to cure many illnesses that
can’t be treated here. I’ve been doing a lot of research online lately, and
I’ve found cases where acupuncture and physiotherapy have helped
terminally ill people recover,” Mila explained.Phoebe was impressed. “That sounds promising. I’ll come along to help
persuade him.”“I’ll join you guys as well,” Simon added.The three of them walked out of Hoffis Manor together. After Phoebe
went to get the car, Simon glanced at Mila a few times and said, “We
must leave on time even if we can’t convince him. We can’t miss the
flight.””We won’t. If he disagrees, I’ll quietly knock him out with Sienna and
take him back to Sunterland for treatment.”Simon chuckled. He knew that someone knocked out and unconscious

Shortly after, Phoebe grew tense as she checked the rearview mirrors
and said, “Mila, take a look behind us. Two cars are tailing us.”Mila and Simon immediately glanced around with concern.”Who could they be?” Simon asked.Mila breathed a sigh of relief after recognizing them. She calmly
explained, “They’re from the military base.”Phoebe suddenly recalled yesterday’s phone call and said, “Mila,
General Morrison called me yesterday.””Nathan?” Mila leaned forward, her voice tinged with concern as she
continued, “Why did he call you? Is something wrong?””He warned us to stay alert. Oliver and Lucas risked their lives
sneaking into Norvania yesterday, so they must be planning
something.”Those names sent a shiver down Mila’s spine and filled her with a
sense of foreboding.
