Raida's face turned pallid, and he sweated profusely. He was so terrified that he could not even utter a word.
At that point, he regretted everything he had done!
The only reason he impersonated the Chief Military Governor was to approach Sophia. And once he hooked up with her and earned her trust, he planned to come clean.
After all, women would not hold grudges against men when they are madly in love with them!
Raida believed Sophia would not be mad at him for being an impostor once she fell in love with him. Eventually, he would marry her and become a member of the Davier family.
This was why he was willing to take a chance on that idea. He then went to find a group of martial artists and paid them to impersonate the Felidae Battalion.
Never in a million years did he think Nathan was the General.
He also never thought the real Felidae Battalion would appear out of nowhere.
He regretted all his actions, but it was too late.
Sophia, on the other hand, was even more stunned than Raida was.
Not only was she shocked, but she was also furious, aggrieved, and embarrassed!
She was overwhelmed by all sorts of negative emotions after learning Raida was not the Chief Military Governor.
Her attention was no longer on Nathan.
She gave Raida a murderous look and gritted her teeth. “You lied to me.”
Raida tried to calm her down. “Please listen to me...
Sophia reiterated, “You lied to me.”
Raida, too, clenched his teeth. “To be honest...”
Sophia continued shooting a sullen glare at him and said icily, “You lied to me.”
Raida could not take this anymore. He raised his voice and said, “How dare you blame me?”
“You mistook me for the Chief Military Governor when I was shopping for clothes, and you didn't even give me a chance to explain myself!” he exclaimed.
