The Wrong Woman

Mila found research to be monotonous and tiresome. It demanded relentless dedication, day in and day out, year after year, for her to achieve the outcomes she desired.

She had devoted herself to her work for so long, with hardly any close friends of the opposite sex, let alone any time for romance.

Yet now, she found joy and fulfillment in her research, thanks to the presence of Jasper and Nathan by her side. She no longer felt lonely or bored. The only downside was her hectic schedule.

Since Nathan's return, they rarely found time to meet. Both of their jobs were demanding and important. Their only time together was at night when they rested.

Despite their busy schedules, Nathan always spent time with Jasper. He vividly remembered the slap Jasper had given him and was determined to cultivate a strong father-son bond. Often, Nathan would bring Jasper to sleep with him in their bed, especially after installing a guardrail. Nathan would sleep in the middle, with Jasper on his left and Mila on his right.

No matter how challenging and exhausting his work might be, Nathan always felt that the joyful moments they shared at night made all the hardships worthwhile.

Meanwhile, Mila still maintained her habit of reading books. Nathan grew anxious about her reading late into the night. When she became deeply immersed in her books, he hesitated to interrupt her. So, whenever she tried to reach for a book, Nathan would quickly push her onto the bed, and they would make love until she felt completely exhausted and eventually fell asleep.

As the chief engineer on the significant project, Mila faced skepticism from many. Being young and only returned to Norvania recently, some doubted her expertise and experience. Rumors suggested she got the job because of Nathan's influence.

Many seasoned researchers often voiced their frustration about being supervised by Mila, a woman in her 20s. However, Mila's female colleagues tended to be more supportive and accepting of her role.
