Mila smiled and said, "Let's just take things as they come. We don't need to announce everything to everyone."
"But everyone is doubting your skills and talking about you behind your back," Phoebe objected.
"Actions speak louder than words. If you want to silence them, the best way is to show what you can do."
Phoebe wasn't entirely convinced. After all, words could hurt, and dealing with gossip every day was tough.
Later, Phoebe opened up to Cole about her concerns, and Cole shared the conversation with Nathan.
The following day, the military base released a personnel profile showcasing Norvania's top researchers. It highlighted their impressive accomplishments and accolades.
Among the extensive list of researchers, Mila's name stood out prominently.
"Wanda Hoffis, also known as 'Mila,' is Norvania's leading chemical researcher and military engineering designer. She's credited with developing hydronium and has contributed significantly to numerous groundbreaking studies in Sunterland. She has received prestigious honors, including..."
This report immediately sparked excitement throughout the entire military base. Researchers of all ages flocked to Mila's research lab like devoted fans, resulting in a bustling and crowded atmosphere within her workspace.
Mila used to treasure her solitude and prioritize her time. But now, she found herself caught up in socializing with her coworkers, who were suddenly fascinated by her.
Putting her work on hold, she marched into Nathan's office in frustration. Cole guided her in and then left them alone.
Surprised by her unexpected visit, Nathan stopped what he was doing and approached her, lifting her and kissing her forehead. "What's going on? Aren't you busy today?"
Mila grumbled, "I'm swamped. Work was already exhausting, and now with your announcement, my office is swarming with people. They come for chitchat, research talks, seeking advice—everyone under the sun seems to have a reason."
Nathan gently stroked her hair, lifted her to the couch, and held her close. "Things will calm down soon. It's natural for them to be excited initially. After all, who wouldn't want to meet the renowned chemistry researcher, Mila?"
Mila looked at him with displeasure. "Why did you do this?"
Nathan smiled and caressed her cheek. "I don't want anyone to treat you unfairly, not even for a moment."

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...
