Mila shook her head, letting out a soft sigh. “No, you will get your
paycheck. Otherwise, you won’t last an hour.”Sienna was taken aback. “Is it really that serious?” Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on ꜰindNovel.ɴetMotivated by a desire to earn money and assist the esteemed anti-drug
officer, Sienna eventually agreed.Mila explained to Sienna about Daniel’s previous occupation, the
circumstances of his injury, and his current condition.As the warm glow of the sunset painted the sky with shades of red, Mila
and Sienna left the restaurant, hand in hand.Their steps faltered as they spotted Nathan on the main road.
Standing before a black sedan were Nathan, Fenna, and Cole.
Approaching them with a stern expression, Nathan asked, “Where’s
Phoebe? And where are the bodyguards you brought?”Sienna was somewhat puzzled, not understanding why Nathan was
suddenly upset with Mila.Mila glanced up at the sky. It seemed that Nathan’s banquet had
ended.Her gaze shifted from Nathan to Fenna, and a sense of unease washed
over her.Rather than addressing his question directly, Mila challenged, “How did
you know I was here?”With his hands in his pockets, Nathan replied icily, “You’re quite the
public figure. Would you really expect anyone not to know your
whereabouts?”Mila fell into silence.FindNovel.netThough she understood Nathan’s concern for her safety, seeing Fenna
by his side stirred her jealousy.Sensing the tension escalating, Sienna felt compelled to step in and
help mediate the situation.”Actually…” she began. Ads by PubFuture
But before she could complete her sentence, Fenna stepped forward.
She positioned herself beside Nathan and reprimanded, “Wanda, why
did you keep ignoring Nate’s calls and then turn off your phone? Do
you know how worried he was?”Because of you, he couldn’t focus during the banquet reception for the
foreign dignitaries. Despite being an adult, you’re quite irresponsible.”
Mila stared at Fenna with disbelief, rendered speechless by her
audacity.Who was Fenna to dictate Milas actions? What gave her the right to do
S07?It wasn’t her position to lecture Mila simply because she didn’t answer
Nathan’s phone call.Mila refused to compromise her dignity by confronting Fenna. Instead,
she turned to Nathan, her eyes shimmering with tears of confusion.
Mila couldn’t help but wonder if Nathan shared Fenna’s opinion,
questioning whether he also believed she was immature. She waited
for Nathan’s response, but he remained silent.With a cold smile, Mila replied to Fenna, “I messaged Nate, informing
him that my phone had died.”Fenna’s expression turned cold. “You’re lying. Your phone has been
charged this whole time.”Mila’s fists tightened gradually, her eyes moistening as she glanced at
Nathan.She didn’t care about what Fenna thought of her or what she said. She
simply wanted to understand why Nathan seemed to agree with her
words.Sienna couldn’t help but notice Mila’s hand trembling slightly. As she
gazed at Mila’s face, she could detect the profound frustration brewing
within her.Glaring at Fenna, Sienna countered sharply, “Who do you think you
are, meddling in a couple’s affairs? This is a private matter between
them.”Fenna’s expression shifted abruptly as she glared back at Sienna, her
demeanor turning cold.Sienna let out a disdainful snort. “What’s up with the glare? Was I
wrong?”
