Chapter 461

Phoebe was curious about what had happened between Mila and Nathan, but she held back from
asking. After all, relationships were private matters, and outsiders couldn’t contribute much.
Mila and Phoebe checked into a hotel together.
In the following days, Mila remained occupied with managing Loretta’s affairs.
Since Loretta preferred a modest funeral and to have all her family members present, Mila chose not to
hold an elaborate ceremony. Instead, she found a serene cemetery and laid Loretta’s remaining ashes
to rest there.
Mila disconnected from the outside world, avoiding news updates and corporate matters. Each day,
she secluded herself in the hotel, working through her grief.
Simultaneously, she began studying the map of Norvania, hoping to uncover clues about where Oliver
might have hidden her family.
In the evening, Phoebe returned to their room with food she had picked up from the hotel lobby.
Concerned, she urged, “Mila, please have something to eat. You’ve barely eaten in the past few days,
and you’re losing weight.”
“I’m not hungry,” Mila replied, sitting by the coffee table, deeply engrossed in studying the map.
She meticulously analyzed each region, trying to pinpoint Oliver’s potential hideout.
Phoebe set the food in front of Mila, insisting, “You really need to eat something, Mila.”
Raising her eyes, Mila nervously glanced at Phoebe and asked in a serious tone, “Phoebe, did you
plant any listening devices at Hoffis Manor?”
Phoebe admitted with a sigh. “Yes, I did, but they’ve all been removed and destroyed.”
Mila’s fists tightened in anger as she processed the revelation.
It was clear from Oliver’s proficient counter-surveillance measures that he was a high-level criminal.
“Have you arranged constant surveillance on Avery?”
Phoebe chuckled in response, “Mila, Mr. Morrison’s team and mine are already discreetly tracking
Avery. We have her closely monitored. The moment she crosses paths with Oliver, we’ll apprehend
her.”
Mila set aside the map, stood up, and took Phoebe’s hand, guiding her to sit down on the couch.
With a grave expression, Mila confided, “Phoebe, I need your assistance with something.”
Phoebe’s tone softened. “Mila, you know I’m here for you. You don’t need to ask; just let me know what
you need.”
Mila looked earnestly into Phoebe’s eyes and spoke softly, “Phoebe, I want to return to Sunterland
alone. Can you stay in Norvania and continue helping me search for my family?”
Shaking her head resolutely, Phoebe stated, “I can’t do that. My priority is ensuring your safety, and I
need to stay by your side.”
Mila firmly held Phoebe’s hand, her eyes pleading. “Phoebe, I’m begging you. You’re the only one who
can help me find my family now.” “But Mr. Morrison has been tirelessly searching as well.”
“Phoebe, without your support, I won’t have the courage to return to Sunterland.”
As Phoebe met Mila’s sorrowful gaze, she couldn’t help but feel a pang of empathy for her.
In the end, Phoebe couldn’t resist Mila’s plea, and she agreed to stay and continue aiding her in the
search for her family.
As for Mila, her final decision was to depart Norvania with Simon. Before leaving, she requested an
extra half-month’s stay, knowing her ovulation period would fall within that time frame.
She was determined to make one final effort.
Mila’s motivations seemed to have changed. Her choice to return to Sunterland wasn’t solely driven by
a desire to contribute to scientific research anymore.
Instead, it was also fueled by her deep affection for Nathan, her quest to find her lost family, the desire
to confront her adversaries, and the inheritance from Zach.
Despite any challenges in her path, Mila was determined to reclaim her rightful place, reunite with her
family, and ensure justice for Loretta.
It was half a month later when Mila arrived at Imperial Heights, precisely opposite Sudvilla, before the
Hudson Manor.
There, she sought out Nathan’s close friend, Cameron.
Cameron was caught off guard by Mila’s unexpected appearance, taking a moment to process the
situation.
Mila’s expression was solemn, with a hint of sorrow in her eyes.
She no longer carried the same innocence and exuberance as before; instead, a newfound maturity
emerged from the scars of her past. Upon spotting him, Mila got straight to the point. “Cameron, could
you lend me a hand?”
Cameron stood there, stunned.
After a pause, he asked, “What exactly do you need my help with?” Mila’s tone was genuine, devoid of
any timidity as she openly expressed, “I want Nathan.”
Cameron was caught off guard.
