The Wrong Woman
Chapter 505

Nathan was furious. He clenched his fists and wondered if Fenna was being loud on purpose.

He feared that if Mila were in his room, she might hear Fenna and be overcome by jealousy and start overthinking. Mila was pregnant, so her emotions were already haywire.

Nathan didn't know how to deal with Fenna's crush on him. The mere thought of Mila being in his dorm made him lose interest in Fenna. Longing for Mila, he quickly returned to his dorm. The door swung open as he was about to enter the code on the keypad. Mila was there with a bright smile.

Nathan smiled back and gazed at her intensely. He closed the door, lifted Mila, and they went into the dorm together.

Mila put her arms around his neck and pretended to be upset as she said, "I just overheard Fenna confessing her feelings for you."

"I've turned her down. Don't worry about it." Nathan brushed it off.

"Can I not be worried if another woman's interested in my husband?" Mila asked with a sigh.

Nathan carried Mila to the couch and sat down beside her. He kissed her forehead and changed the subject. "When did you get here?"

Mila didn't push further when she noticed that Nathan was trying to move away from talking about Fenna. "I came after lunch and spent some time checking out the blueprints." "What blueprints?"

Mila pointed to the stack of blueprints on his bedside table. They were for the latest fighter aircraft.

Nathan grinned in response. He cupped her face tenderly as he leaned in for a kiss. Mila pushed against his chest and pulled away. "Oh, don't. You're always kissing me when I'm around." Nathan offered a bitter smile. "It's hard seeing you. Besides, what else can I do other than kiss you?"

Mila giggled. Then, Nathan leaned in again to kiss her lips. She closed her eyes and surrendered to the moment as he kissed her passionately.

It was late at night, and the room felt warm and comfortable. Nathan took off his jacket, feeling feverish from kissing her. Eventually, he couldn't stand it any longer and had to pull himself from Mila. Finding the heat unbearable, Nathan said, "I'm going to shower. You can get some rest on the bed." He undressed and went into the bathroom.

Mila thought Nathan was funny. He had kissed her first, and now he was fighting his urges.

"Nate, how much will the new fighter cost? Tens of billions?" Mila asked loudly.

With the door to the bathroom still open, the sound of running water and Nathan's voice could be heard from inside. "Yes, it'll cost several tens of billions, and even then, we're only getting outdated models. We're considering starting our project to develop new ones."

Mila went over to the bathroom door and leaned against the wall. The scent of shower gel wafted out, and she blushed at some random thoughts.

"Do we have a technical engineer for that?" Mila asked.

"Yeah, but she's pregnant. So, we'll have to plan the project first and wait," Nathan replied calmly.

Mila smiled and gently touched her growing bump. A mixture of emotions flooded over her.

Nathan cared for both his country and his family. But he seemed to put their child and Mila first. He was willing to wait on national issues if it didn't affect the fundamentals.

Just then, Mila's phone rang. She sat on the couch and picked it up from the table. It was Sienna calling her.

"Hey, Sienna," Mila answered the call.

"I'm sorry to bother you so late, Wanda," Sienna said softly.

"That's okay, I'm still up. What's going on?" Mila asked.

"I quit my job. I still owe you more than a hundred grand, and it might take me a while to pay you back," Sienna explained.
