The wrong Woman novel by Ginny Not Genie novel Chapter 83

Chapter 83 

It was Lucas. 

He passed a cup of warm milk to Suzanne and said, “Mrs. Morrison, have some milk and get some sleep. General Morrison might have a busy night, and he’s not sure when he’ll be back.” 

Suzanne accepted the milk. She felt a little let down as she mumbled, “Thanks.” 

“No problem.” 

She looked downcast as she asked, “How did you know I’m still awake?” 

“Mrs. Morrison, I swear I wasn’t stalking you. I was pulling extra hours at the office, and General Morrison told me to bring you the milk. Hel said you should go to bed soon,” Lucas clarified. 

Suzanne was taken aback. She glanced out of the balcony and asked, “Does Nathan know I’ve been awake?” 

Lucas wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, worried about coming across as a stalker. 

He took a moment to explain, “General Morrison’s office is on the top floor of the tallest building a couple of streets away. He’s got a clear view of the dorms. The whole building is dark, except for the lights in your room. So naturally, he knows you’re still up.” 

Suzanne smiled slightly, her desire to see Nathan turning into concern and empathy. She held onto the warm milk, torn between wanting Nathan to return early for some rest and hoping he could smoothly finish his work. 

“Mr. Vega, can you fill me in on what exactly Nathan is caught up

with?” she asked cautiously. 

Lucas paused for a moment, carefully choosing what to disclose.” The drill got canceled because of an unexpected incident. Besides, Ms. Hoffis stirred up trouble for General Morrison once again, and he’s dealing with the repercussions.” 

Suzanne caught Sally’s name, and a twinge of bitterness crept into 

her heart. 

She couldn’t fathom why Nathan consistently showed leniency toward Sally and went out of his way to rectify her mistakes. It seemed like he was overly indulgent with her. 

Lucas took a moment to think before saying, “Mrs. Morrison, there are details I can’t get into. General Morrison is genuinely overwhelmed and exhausted, especially with a lot of recent troubles. 

His frustration grew as he continued, “Just the other day, Ms. Hoffis accidentally broke our Azurium, and we lost a whopping 80 million dollars in the blink of an eye. We managed to secure some Azurium. after a lot of hard work, but it was contaminated by some unethical foreign institution. 

“Currently, all the professors are scrambling to extract pure Azurium but they’re all failing despite numerous attempts. If we can’t get it right soon, we’ll either have to buy it again or shell out money to sen 

it abroad for skilled scientists to extract it. General Morrison-” 

Lucas was interrupted by Suzanne before he could finish. “Hold on… 

She chugged down the milk, set the cup on the table, and snagged a cardigan on her way out. Lucas looked confused. “Mrs. Morrison, where are you off to?” 

Slipping into her cardigan and switching off the lights, Suzanne responded, “I know the extraction methods for Azurium. Take me to the lab.”

She closed the door and walked out, with Lucas following close 

behind.
