Nathan was stunned. He looked into Suzanne's bright, round eyes. Tears were welling up in her eyes. He felt a sense of unfamiliarity. At the same time, he didn't understand why she was upset. So, he felt a little irritated. "What's wrong?"Suzanne turned away from him and quickly wiped away the tears. She calmed herself down and said, "It's evening right now. All of your family members should be at home. I'll head in first. Stand at the door and listen to what happens."She stepped out of the car after she said that. She walked into the house without waiting for Nathan. As soon as she walked in, Suzanne met the butler, Edgar. Edgar was about 50 years old. He was very stoic and quick-witted. He quickly snapped back to his senses after his initial shock."Welcome, Mrs. Morrison. You're just in time. Dinner is about to start," Edgar said politely. Suzanne could tell Edgar was only polite to her because of his professional ethics. Everyone in the household was prejudiced aga

His father, Gary Morrison, said joyfully, "Nate, you've finally found the time to come home!"His mother, Florence Lowe, was also filled with joy. "Let me get a good look at you, Nate. Have you gotten slimmer this past month?"Nathan slowly pushed away Florence's hands, which were cupping his face. "Since you're back, at least stay for a few days." Florence could sense that Nathan was unhappy.Nathan completely ignored his parents' words. He glanced at the people in the living room coldly. He yelled at his siblings and their partners.

It was a villa area where the most important people of Norvania lived, such as the country's leaders, generals, officials, scientists, engineers, astronauts, or key people under protection.Nathan stopped the car. Then, he told Suzanne, "Get out of the car first."Suzanne was shocked as she looked at the words "Imperial Heights" carved on the entrance. She finally realized that Nathan had brought her to a place where normal people would never be able to enter. She started to feel nervous. Then, she unbuckled the seatbelt, got out of the car, and walked over to Nathan's side.Two soldiers who were on guard duty approached them. One of them took the ID that Nathan handed them and glanced at it.Then, they saluted him. "Good day to you, General Morrison."Nathan nodded.

As a bioweapon, hydronium was incredibly powerful. Anyone who owned a hydronium-based weapon was practically undefeatable.A combination of hydronium and ultrasonic waves could kill half the earth's population painlessly and unknowingly in under two hours. Every country wanted to get their hands on hydronium.Some countries were even offering to pay five billion dollars per gram of hydronium.The conversation in the living room died off.

Suzanne picked up the bowl of burning sage and walked back to the villa."Madam."She turned.A man in a smart suit came up to her and gave her a polite nod as he handed her an envelope. "General Morrison told me to give you this."Suzanne took the letter. "What is it?" she asked curiously."I'm not sure," the man said.

Suzanne was creeped out. "What do you want?"Sally smirked at her coldly. "Nathan is on his way home. Did you know that there are no surveillance cameras in this house apart from the doorway, since this is where he meets other countries' dignitaries?"A horrible feeling crept up Suzanne's back. Her hair seemed to stand on end when she saw Sally's terrifying expression.Before she could react, Sally rushed over to the bookshelf and swept all the books to the ground haphazardly. Then, she slapped herself hard several times until there was a red mark in the shape of a hand on her face.Suzanne watched all this in shock. She was frightened by her actions.She'd known about Sally's underhanded tricks before this, but she really hadn't expected that Sally would be willing to hurt herself just to frame her.Nathan loved Sally with all his heart.

Nathan's expression darkened when he heard what Suzanne said. He gave her a cold glare.Suzanne was frightened.

She knew she couldn't change his perception of Sally no matter what she did.Nathan fell silent.He could see the fierce determination in Suzanne's eyes. She had looked just like that when he'd saved her in Technive, and when she had beaten up her own brother in the casino.The teary yet determined look reminded him a lot of how Sally had been when she was young. She was always determined to get over whatever difficulty she had been facing at the time.Dazed by the illusion, he felt his heart lurch in sympathy.After saying all that, Suzanne wiped her tears away with the back of her hand. The wounds on her palms were red and bleed
