Chapter 262

As she headed upstairs, she overheard Nathan thanking the Hudson siblings. She could also vaguely
make out Fenna’s dissatisfied
complaints about her earlier actions
Suzanne entered her room and locked the door behind her. Then, she sat on the edge of the bed and
thought about every event that had taken place since she regained her memory.
Since the time Nathan’s grandmother recognized her as Wanda at first glance, she seemed to have
had many close encounters with her aractual background.
What unsettled her the most was Oliver Hoffis. He was her uncle, yet he conspired with outsiders to
steal her identity. He even posed as her ex-boyfriend.
B Being Wanda Hoffis was relatively easier to come to terms with. HHowever, she was also Mila
Winkler-The name carried a weight. It fefelt suffocating just thinking about it.
WWanda Hoffis, also known as Mila Winkler, was a Sunteri. She was a
chchemical scientist and a first-grade ordnance engineer.
There were tears in her eyes as she smiled resignedly. She lay back. orom the bed and stared at the
ceiling. Lingering worries swirled in her
heread.
AtAt that moment, she didn’t want to regain her memories anymore. Shahja just wanted to be Nathan
Morrison’s wife-A common, weak,
Notvaranian woman.
Same ertime later, there was a knock on the door.
“Are yowasasteep, Chubs?” Nathan’s voice rang out.
Mila didn’t respond and only looked at the door with teary eyes.
After two knocks, the other side of the door fell quiet. A pair of footsteps could be heard shuffling away.
“What should I do now, Nate?” She curled up and pulled the blanket over herself, sobbing silently with
her eyes closed.
The next morning, she washed up and got ready to head downstairs
for breakfast. She froze as she opened the door.
Nathan stood in front of her with his hands in his pockets. His posture was tall and upright-He had a
domineering air around him.
Nathan was born with an intimidating aura. His presence was pressuring even if he did nothing but
stand there wordlessly.
“Morning,” he greeted in a warm tone.
She swallowed lightly before flashing him a shallow smile. “Good
morning.”
He knew that she wasn’t asleep last night, and she was just avoiding
h him.
“Let’s talk, Chubs.”
MMila stepped backward and leaned against the door. “Come on in.”
N Nathan removed his hands from his pockets and marched into the
roroom.
SiShe closed the door and followed him in. She felt slightly restless.
Hele turned around to face her. “I know it wasn’t convenient for you to sasay anything last night
because there were too many people there.”
Hele said, “Now that it’s just the two of us, please tell me the truth.”
Sithio lowered her head and fell silent for a few seconds. After thinking
about it the entire night, she was now aware of what she should and shouldn’t say.
She lifted her head to look at him assertively.
“Why did you keep it from me?” She questioned.
He furrowed his brows in confusion.
“I was Sally Hoffis when I was younger. After immigrating, I was called Wanda Hoffis. You already knew
all of this, so why didn’t you tell me?”
Nathan’s expression fell. He paused for a moment before stretching a shaky hand toward her arm.
“I’m sorry. I wanted to get rid of the two that posed a threat to you before letting you know,” he
explained.
Mila understood where he was coming from. There was no point telling her if she hadn’t regained her
memory anyway.
If she’d been rash and went to the Hoffis’ to look for her family afterward, she would’ve exposed her
own identity.
Then, the two would definitely plot against her.
She didn’t question him any further. Instead, she gradually approached him and looked up into his
warm, dark eyes before. asking in a soft voice,
“So, the girl you used to like was me?”
Nathan stared at the pretty face that was inches away from his and swallowed instinctively. His
breathing quickened slightly, and his
gaze became hot.
Observing his reddening ears, Mila blinked and asked again with a grin, “Do you still like me now?”
He lightly breathed through his mouth. His chest rose and fell-There was a blazing feeling that was
difficult to suppress. He was so
nervous he couldn’t utter a single word.
