The Wrong Woman

Chapter 365

Mila’s reluctance to leave Nathan filled her eyes with sadness.

She blinked her teary eyes and stared intently at Nathan but she couldn’t see him clearly as night had fallen. Yet, his outline still looked breathtaking. Her heart stiffened like her body. “You probably will not get another chance to return to Norvania if you go back to Sunterland this time. Will you really leave without hesitation?” Nathan’s voice carried serious weight. “1” Mila was at a loss for words as her heart ached. Although she couldn’t bear leaving Zach and Loretta, she hated leaving Nathan the most.

Zach and Loretta could still keep in touch with her during her vacations. They could even visit her in Sunterland.

Yet, she and Nathan would become strangers the moment she left Norvania. He would be gone from her life without a trace.

If this had happened three years ago, she would have been sad but not as devastated and reluctant.

It was during these three years of amnesia that she had fallen deeply and irrevocably in love with him. That was why she felt so hurt and was unwilling to leave him now.

Given the choice between her scientific career and her love, she chose the former. She felt as if her heart was being torn apart and was bleeding uncontrollably. Tears began to trickle down her cheeks.

Nathan had a faint glimpse of her tears. He cupped her face and wiped away her tears with his thumbs. “Are you crying for your grandparents or Daniel?”

Overwhelmed with grief, Mila dropped her head, her shoulders shaking with each sob. The pain was too intense for her to ask why Nathan kept bringing up Daniel at a time like that.
