The Wrong Woman
Chapter 579

Hugo pointed toward the sky and said, "Look up."

"There's nothing there."

"Satellite signals," Hugo elaborated. "They can track our every move outdoors. Our phones, once receiving a signal, can be located and monitored. The nearby surveillance cameras, whether public or private, are all accessible through databases.

"Even your smartwatch, your car, and home computers, if equipped with GPS and signal reception, leave us exposed."

Avery's voice trembled. "What do we do?"

Hugo replied, "Wait and see."

Over the next few days, Zach contacted his lawyer to transfer the 28-billion-dollar estate to Nathan.

Nathan graciously declined, considering it a gift for Mila.

Touched and elated by his gesture, Zach finalized the transfer to both their names as shared assets.

After a short hospital stay, Zach was eager to leave. Mila invited him to stay at Morrison Residence.

The Morrisons, given the already close relationship and his status as the wealthiest man in Norvania, warmly welcomed Zach. Few observant relatives even vied to entertain and impress him. Most heartwarming for Zach was seeing Mila's baby, dispelling the gloom brought about by the family situation.

While Nathan juggled his official duties, he continued investigating Mila's parents' disappearance.

Meanwhile, Mila collaborated with lawyers and company executives, strategizing to reclaim the Hoffis assets and have Avery imprisoned.

Both were deeply focused on their missions.

One day, Gary, Florence, Zach, and the baby were enjoying a stroll in the backyard while the other relatives were occupied with work, leaving only Mila and Phoebe at home.

Mila readied the necessary documents for her lawyer meeting with Phoebe. Just as they were about to leave, an unexpected guest arrived.

Edgar ushered Fenna in.

When their eyes met, a charged silence enveloped the room.

Edgar intervened gracefully, "Madam, Ms. Hudson wishes to see Mr. Morrison."

Mila responded calmly, "Nate isn't here. You knew that, didn't you?"

Edgar, slightly flustered, stammered, "M-My apologies, Madam. Ms. Hudson said she'd wait inside, so I allowed her in."

Given Fenna's previous stays and her role as Nathan's assistant, Edgar deemed a formal announcement necessary. Had it been Cole, the gates would've opened freely.

With a dismissive gesture, Mila sent Edgar on his way.

Once he left, Fenna approached, her demeanor frosty. "You must've been disappointed to see me released so soon."

Mila met her gaze coolly. "It's been two weeks, standard procedure."

With a boldness that bordered on audacity, Fenna challenged, "Nate is principled, and he honors our friendship. He would never do this to me. Did you manipulate him? Use Jace and your marriage to threaten him?"

Mila regarded her, disbelief evident in her eyes. "On what grounds do you question me?"

"My decade-long friendship with Nate," Fenna declared, her voice quivering, eyes teary. "We've always had each other's backs. I trust him, and I'm unwaveringly loyal to him."

Mila sensed a disturbing intensity in Fenna's words, her emotions spiraling toward obsession.

"Ms. Hudson, let's be clear here. You're Cameron's sister. His care and concern for you are born from his respect for Cameron, not romantic feelings. Your feelings for him are one-sided."
