Chapter 324

In Sudvilla, Nathan pondered after watching the surveillance footage that Phoebe brought
1. in.
From the surveillance footage, there was no concrete evidence proving that Oliver
kidnapped Mila and secretly took her away. But the possibility was too high to be ignored.
Phoebe was growing frantic. “Mr. Morrison, please send someone out to find Mila. If we delay any
longer, I’m afraid that Mila will die!”
Nathan replied with a frown on his face, “He also loves Chubs. I don’t think he will harm her.
“That’s bullshit! That lunatic not only caused the death of Mila’s parents but also secretly performed
surgery on her, which caused her to lose her memory.
“If Mila falls into his hands, God knows what will happen to her! Mr. Morrison, you have to think of a
way!”
Nathan clenched his fist and looked at Phoebe with a gloomy face. He masked his internal turmoil as
he calmly said, “I have already sent my men to search for her.
“But why did Chubs come looking for me with her baggage early in the morning? What did she intend
to do?”
Phoebe’s heart raced as she spilled the truth without holding back. “I overheard Sally’s scheming last
night. She’s plotting a shotgun wedding to tie the knot with you.”
Nathan’s expression grew serious as he furrowed his brows. He was caught off guard, staring blankly
in disbelief.
Phoebe perched on the edge of the sofa. She felt uneasy, longing to go out and search for Mila.
But she had no clue whatsoever, akin to a headless chicken. Going out to search for someone in such
a situation would only be a waste of time and energy.
Nathan forced a wry smile and said excitedly, “So Sally was planning a shotgun wedding, and Chubs
wanted to protect me?”
Phoebe nodded.
Nathan lowered his head, and he smiled bitterly. Despite the irony, he couldn’t help but feel

touched. “If that was the case, she could have just told me. I have reliable subordinates
around me.”
“Mila doesn’t trust anyone except herself and me. She originally sent me to protect you personally,
but…” Phoebe hesitated for a few seconds before continuing, “I felt it was inappropriate, so I refused.
“Then she decided to protect you herself, but she left early without letting me know. After that, she got
kidnapped.”
Nathan leaned back in his chair as he looked at Phoebe with an unfathomable expression. He
asked, “We’re already divorced, and she’s been pretty cold to me.
“Why would she care about my personal matters? Why would she even think about. protecting me?”
“She is just worried about you,” Phoebe blurted out.
Nathan gave Phoebe a piercing glance across the office desk. He hoped to discern clues from her
gaze.
After a moment, he asked again, “Her name is Chubs Hoffis, formerly known as Sally Hoffis. Why do
you keep calling her Mila?”
“It’s just a habit,” Phoebe replied casually. But the next moment, she became nervous. She watched
Nathan warily.
It was then that she noticed something off about Nathan’s gaze. His eyes shone brightly, yet
held a look of confusion.
“Which Mila?” Nathan persisted. “What’s her full name?”
Phoebe became more anxious as she said, “Forget about her name, just hurry up and find Mila!”
“Don’t worry, we’ll have news soon,” Nathan reassured her. He quickly changed the subject and said,
“Which university did she attend?”
“Sunderland National Defense University,” Phoebe replied.
“What’s her educational qualifications?” Nathan asked.
Phoebe snapped impatiently, “She has a joint Ph.D. in chemistry and engineering. Shouldn’t you
already know all this? Why are you asking me?”
Nathan was confused as he said, “Chemistry, engineering, and a joint Ph.D.?”
Nathan concealed his bafflement well. His pupils quivered slightly, and his hands clenched involuntarily.
He knew Mila studied chemistry, but he hadn’t expected engineering, let alone a joint Ph.D.
Mila’s academic qualifications far exceeded his imagination. He dared not delve any further.
“Where does she work?” Nathan pressed on.
