The wrong Woman novel by Ginny Not Genie novel Chapter 452

Mila's smile curved softly. "There's nothing urgent. I simply wished to share more moments with you while I'm still here in Phoenicia, and while you're still nearby."

Nathan's question was sincere. "To develop feelings with me?"

A soft smile danced on Mila's lips as she nodded in affirmation.

"And even after you've developed feelings for me, you still intend to leave?" Nathan probed.

Mila responded with simplicity, "Yes."

Nathan's gaze clouded as he passed by Mila, muttering to himself, "You're creating problems for yourself."

Following him into the living room, Mila pressed further, "Why would you say that?"

As Nathan settled into a seat, he picked up an orange from the coffee table and began to peel it. "If you must leave, why bother seeking trouble when there are none?"

Mila hesitated to delve deeper into the topic. Leaning closer to him, she asked softly, "Nate, what was Fenna here to discuss with you just now?"

Nathan handed her the peeled orange.

Mila blinked in surprise, a smile gradually spreading across her face as she looked at the orange in her hand.

Nathan explained calmly, "To send some documents and discuss work."

"What kind of work?" Mila asked curiously while munching on the fruit and savoring its sweetness and unique aroma.

Nathan frowned at her, remaining silent.

"Is it confidential?" Mila probed, sensing his hesitation.

Nathan's demeanor turned serious. "Anything about my work should remain confidential from you."

Mila paused, her expression darkening. It felt like a setback, leaving her feeling somewhat helpless.

She nibbled on the orange slowly, its flavor lacking, and her heart weighed down.
