With his eyes closed, Nathan asked sharply, "Do you want to be investigated as well?"
"I'm sorry, General Morrison," Cole apologized quickly. "I'm deeply loyal to the country and you. I don't see the need for an investigation."
Nathan had never considered investigating Cole. He usually trusted the people he surrounded himself and wouldn't be involved with those he doubted. Unfortunately, his excessive trust had allowed Lucas to betray him and Fenna to deceive him brazenly.
"Drive on," muttered Nathan.

When Mila walked into the Morrison residence, she heard Layla sarcastically remark, "It's unbelievable there're still some women who can be so jealous nowadays.
"They don't support, understand, or help their husbands at work and can't even handle having a female assistant."
Mila turned around to see Layla sitting on the couch in the living room.
Phoebe was seething and wanted to confront Layla, but Mila grabbed her hand just in time to stop her. Phoebe was merely an assistant. Her life wouldn't be easy in this house if she upset Layla.
Mila calmly approached Layla and said, "Layla, if you have something to say, just say it straight out. You don't have to get sarcastic."
Layla leaned back on the couch and replied arrogantly, "I wasn't talking about you. Don't take it personally."
"It's just us here. Are you talking to ghosts or something?"
Layla dropped the act when she saw Mila's firm stance. She stood up, crossed her arms, and said haughtily, "I just can't stand people like you. You rely on Nate's affection to mistreat his assistant. Are you satisfied now that Fenna has moved out and been suspended?"
Mila glanced at Phoebe, who looked just as confused. Phoebe shrugged, implying that she had no idea.

Chapter 1079 and 1080 missing...
There's no 1079 and 1080 :(...
I lost the interest to continue the novel.Too many characters....
So we are shifting to a different story now? Was this not Nathan and Wanda's story? So this story will continue as Sierra and Daniel's right?...
Oh God I'd die broken-heart if Sienna and Daniel doesn't end up together happily ever after!!...
More chapters please...
This is bullshit. Why cant she just be honest. Saying bunch of things to hurt him thinking it wont hurt him in future. How much more dumb can she be. She is really hanging my patience level by thread....
Why cant she just say it. Why is it so hard to say??...
Hello, more chapters please. Thank you...
