The Wrong Woman Chapter 81
The door creaked open, and Suzanne glanced up from her book. When she spotted Nathan entering with her meal, her face lit up in surprise."Why are you suddenly the one bringing me food?" Suzanne asked as she stood up."I swung by to grab some things and figured I'd bring over the meal in Lucas' stead," Nathan replied calmly.He placed the meal and utensils on the dining table before walking over to the bedside table. He casually opened the drawer, and simply closed it without grabbing anything.Suzanne was a little flustered by the towering heap of food before her. She had no clue where to start.Nathan approached with a grin. "Consider it Lucas' way of showing you some care."Suzanne furrowed her brows and gave Nathan a pleading look. "It's way too much. I can't possibly finish all this by myself."Nathan regarded her seriously as he uttered, "Don't let the food go to waste."Suzanne was stumped by his words. She had expected him to say that.After pausing for a moment, she q

The pleasant meal soon came to an end. Once they were done with lunch, Nathan told Suzanne to take some rest and then headed out with the tray in hand.Outside the dormitory, Cole and Lucas saw Nathan making his way down with the empty tray.Cole leaned over and whispered, "General Morrison took his time with that meal.""Maybe Mrs. Morrison takes her sweet time eating," Lucas said."He seems to be in a good mood."Seeing Nathan approach them, Lucas quipped, "That's about to change."Nathan came to a stop in front of the pair."General Morrison," they both greeted in unison.Nathan's expression grew serious as he walked past them. He handed the tray over and instructed, "Take it and give it a good wash.""Yes, sir."Lucas had the tray in hand, ambling alongside Cole as they trailed behind Nathan."Any luck finding the culprit?" Nathan asked in a serious tone."We've narrowed down the suspects to 12 people. The investigation is still in progress," Cole answered."How's th

It was Lucas. He passed a cup of warm milk to Suzanne and said, "Mrs. Morrison, have some milk and get some sleep. General Morrison might have a busy night, and he's not sure when he'll be back."Suzanne accepted the milk. She felt a little let down as she mumbled, "Thanks.""No problem."She looked downcast as she asked, "How did you know I'm still awake?""Mrs. Morrison, I swear I wasn't stalking you. I was pulling extra hours at the office, and General Morrison told me to bring you the milk. He said you should go to bed soon," Lucas clarified.Suzanne was taken aback. She glanced out of the balcony and asked, "Does Nathan know I've been awake?"Lucas wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, worried about coming across as a stalker.He took a moment to explain, "General Morrison's office is on the top floor of the tallest building a couple of streets away. He's got a clear view of the dorms. The whole building is dark, except for the lights in your room. So naturally, he know

In the wee hours of the morning, the office was still bustling with plenty of activity. Everyone was startled when Suzanne showed up in her pajamas and a cardigan. Nathan wasn't too happy.He headed her way and asked, "Didn't I tell you to get some sleep?""Is the lab in Research Building Five?" Suzanne asked in a hurry.Nathan was confused. "What's happening?"Suzanne looked directly at him and whispered in a sincere tone, "Lucas mentioned that you guys couldn't extract pure Azurium. I want to give it a shot."Nathan glared at Lucas, who looked guilty. Beads of sweat were forming on his forehead and he quickly shrank back.Instead of following Nathan's instructions to get Suzanne to sleep early, Lucas told her about the issues they were dealing with, leaving Suzanne all worked up."You think you can handle it?" Nathan was surprised.Suzanne shook her head, then nodded. She wasn't completely confident. "I know the methods, but I can't guarantee that it'll work. You've been

The chemists and professors were taken by surprise. A few of them were so rattled that they immediately searched online, typing in: "How many have succeeded in extracting pure Azurium?"One of the chemistry professors approached Nathan and said excitedly, "General Morrison, I did some searching. There are fewer than ten chemists worldwide who have succeeded in extracting pure Azurium."Plus, it's a secret technology in developed countries. They're making a profit from this technology and keeping it strictly within their countries."Nathan snapped back to reality and asked, "Who are these ten chemists?""The source didn't disclose the personal details of these chemists."Suzanne's success left everyone in awe. Executives started swarming Nathan and bombarding him with a barrage of questions."How on earth is Mrs. Morrison more skilled than our top scientists in Norvania?""General Morrison, where did Mrs. Morrison pick up these techniques?""Mrs. Morrison was the one who sorte

Nathan strolled up to Suzanne with a darkened gaze and suddenly leaned down. Suzanne instinctively leaned back and landed on the bed. She could feel her heart racing out of her chest.Nathan knelt on the bed and placed his hands beside her as he peered down at her.His masculine scent flooded over Suzanne and her breaths turned erratic. She was both nervous and confused. Nathan teased playfully, "Madam, do you prefer to top or bottom for me?""That's not what I meant." Suzanne paled. Why did she sense some seriousness behind his playful words?"You… you seem unhappy—ever since I exited the lab; and you refuse to talk to me." Suzanne swallowed hard.Nathan smirked and muttered, "The successful extraction of pure Azurium not only saved me a chunk of money but also pushed our technology forward. Of course, I'm happy.""Are you doubting my identity again, then? Is that why you're acting like this?" Suzanne asked."I have never stopped doubting your identity." Nathan hummed.Suz

Suzanne shot Sally a cold look. "What do you want?"Sally shrugged. "Nothing. I just wanted to ask when are you planning to divorce Nate?"Suzanne brushed past her. "We don't plan on getting a divorce."Sally snorted and hurriedly blocked Suzanne's path. "Do you seriously think you're worthy to be by his side? Who do you think you are? You'll only embarrass Nate if he's seen with you. The person Nate likes is me. You're the third wheel in our relationship."Suzanne quelled her anger and explained calmly, "Three years ago, Grandma told Nathan to marry me. But he decided to wait for your return and rejected Grandma's decision."Sally was surprised by this.Suzanne continued, "A year had passed between your return and the day Nathan and I got married, right? If he liked you, why didn't he marry you? Why did he choose to marry me instead?""That's..." Sally was at a loss for words.Suzanne added, "That's because he had no intention of marrying you."Sally stomped her foot in frust

The next moment, Sally appeared in front of Suzanne. She grabbed the latter's wrist and faked being pushed down the stairs."Stop!" Sally screamed as she rolled herself down the stairs. She eventually collided with the stone statue beneath the stairs.Blood instantly poured from Sally's forehead."Murder…" Sally cried and crawled toward the soldiers with a terrified look. "Help me! Suzanne wants to kill me!"The soldiers quickly helped Sally up and gaped at Suzanne in bewilderment.Suzanne was dumbfounded. Was Sally falsely accusing her again? Suzanne was familiar with Sally's tricks. But the latter was going to more extreme lengths each time!Sally held her bleeding forehead and trembled behind the soldiers. She cried out pitifully, "Quick, call the cops! Suzanne is trying to kill me."At this point, more onlookers gathered around them.Everyone knew who Suzanne was. They didn't dare to scold her or call the cops on her.…On the highway, Lucas, who was in the passenger se
