Chapter 70

Alan nodded. “Yes. But I’m unable to understand its principles at all. Without Mila, this thing is worthless.”

Nathan glanced at Alan and observed him closely. After a while, he stood up with the bottle in hand and said to Cole, “Let him na price. I’m buying this thing.”

Then, Nathan promptly left the room.

Alan panicked, quickly standing up and shaking his head. “No need. You don’t need to pay me.

However, Nathan was long gone. Cole approached Alan, saying

seriously, “This thing is valued at five billion dollars per bottle. As long as it doesn’t exceed that price, you can nany amount you like.”

Alan was stunned, finding it hard to believe that he could nany price below five billion dollars.

After his retirement, his family had been facing financial difficul and his wife needed money for medical treatment. Life was toug he thought of selling this thing after boarding the ship.

It had never crossed his mind that he would get billions of dol Even if he worked for several lifetimes, he could never amass su substantial figure.

Cautiously, Alan lifted a finger. One million dollars wouldn’t be

much, would it?

Cole immediately agreed. “One billion? Thanks.”

Alan frantically waved his hands. “No, no. That’s too much.”

“Ten million, then? Thank you so much. Norvania will remember you

generous contribution.”

Cole immediately handed a document to Alan and added, “Present this document at the military headquarters within three days to

receive the check.”

“I…” Alan was dumbfounded.

Having completed his task, Cole left as well.

Later that evening, the cruise ship returned to the waters of Norvania- docking at the pier.

People on the ship gradually disembarked.

When Suzanne followed Wendy out of the cruise ship, she was stunned by the scene before her.

A dignified and grand formation of troops stood in two rows on the pier, they were orderly and spectacular. All of them in a single fremanated a commanding and awe-inspiring presence.

Then, Suzanne spotted Sally and Oliver waiting next to a luxurious

Wendy casually approached Oliver for a chat.

Not wanting to talk with those two, Suzanne took out her phon

call for a cab.

Just then, she heard the sound of steady footsteps from behind h Before Suzanne could turn around, however, Sally had rushed past with a smile.

Sally leaned on Nathan’s arm, coquettishly saying, “Nate…”

At the words, Suzanne turned around to see that Sally had already thrown herself at Nathan, hugging his arm affectionately.

“Nate, we haven’t seen each other in a long time. We’ve just reunited

but I can’t bear to part with you.”

Suzanne felt a sourness in her heart, her eyes stinging at the sight of the two together. She lowered her head to avoid looking at the uncomfortable scene.

Wendy and Oliver walked over. The former smiled and said, “Sally,

Nate has many things to do. He doesn’t have much tto play with you.”

On the other hand, Oliver instigated by saying, “Sally, if you can’t bear to part with Nate, go to the military with him for a few days.”

Excited like a child, Sally leaned closer to Nathan and bounced on her feet. “Sure! I want to visit Nate’s weapons production base.”

Nathan’s expression turned gloomy. He irritably pushed Sally away and reprimanded her, “Don’t talk nonsense, and stop clinging tolike a monkey.”

Cole and Lucas, who were standing nearby, frowned when they

watched Sally’s inappropriate behavior. The look on their faces had turned incredibly unpleasant.

Cole felt a wave of disdain as he thought that Nathan’s majestic image as a general was thoroughly ruined because of Sally.

Lucas shared the ssentiment, thinking, “How disgusting. Lu

I don’t have a childhood sweetheart like her.”

Wendy looked at the tand then said to Suzanne, “Suzanne, it’s getting late. Let’s take Dr. Hoffis’ car home.”

Suzanne glanced at the cab-hailing application on her phone. Surprisingly, five other customers were ahead of her in the queue.

She didn’t want to stand there and witness the heartbreaking scen any longer.

“Fine,” Suzanne responded listlessly, turning to walk toward Wendy.

A pleasant smile appeared on Oliver’s face. He quickly walked over to open the passenger door.

“Suzy.”

Suddenly, someone called her gently and intimately, stunning

everyone present.

Suzanne was particularly shocked. She turned to look at the man who called her “Suzy” so endearingly.

It was Nathan.

Had she heard it wrong?

Nathan forcefully pushed away Sally, who was still stubbornly clinging to him.

Having been pushed a step back, Sally gaped at Nathan as he approached Suzanne.

Anyone would be surprised that the tough and stoic man would such a gentle tone to call a woman’s nicknfondly, not tothat it was Suzanne whose reputation was notorious.

Nathan walked up to Suzanne and took her hand while she was dazed. He whispered, “Last night before we slept, didn’t you say wanted to watch our drills?”

Suzanne beceven more confused. She had no idea they had drills. When did she say such things last night?

Oliver’s face darkened, and he immediately closed the car door. Walking up to the pair, his gaze was cold as he uttered, “You’re so busy; it wouldn’t be right for her to disturb you.”

Nathan met Oliver’s eyes, his lips curling into a small smile. He

tightened his hold on Suzanne’s hand and pulled her to his side.

“No matter how busy I am, I can spare tto accompany her to watch the drills. If I can’t even fulfill such a small request from my wife, then I’ve failed as a husband.”

He emphasized that they were husband and wife, deliberately showing off.

While Oliver’s expression soured, Suzanne felt her heart pounding and her breathing turning erratic.

Nathan’s palm was broad and warm as he held her hand tightly. She felt like she was floating in space, unable to figure out what was going on with Nathan.

But of course, she wouldn’t expose Nathan’s lie. It was just that she could vaguely sense the tension between the two men.

“What about Sally?” Oliver asked unhappily.
