The Wrong Woman

Chapter 402

Nathan fell into a momentary silence.

Instead of questioning how Mila had learned of his accident, he nervously asked, “Chubs, are you outside?”

Mila replied casually, “Yeah, I was on my way to meet Sienna and spotted you guys.”

Despite her worries about his car accident, he hadn’t mentioned a word about it. Instead, he showed more concern for her safety.

“Nate, everything’s fine. I’m just meeting up with a friend,” Mila reassured him, hoping to alleviate his concern. “Phoebe will join me shortly.
