The rescue helicopter found Suzanne without a problem and transported her safely back to the Norvanian military.
She didn’t sleep a wink that night. After waiting anxiously the entire night, there was still no news of Nathan returning.
She grew more worried and restless as tpassed by. She waited
agonizingly while praying for his safe return.
When daybreak came, Suzanne sat hugging her knees at the main door. She stared at the wide road ahead with teary eyes, hoping to catch a glimpse of
the man.
As Cole watched her, he felt like her worry was laced with love. He didn’t understand why she was so adamant about getting a divorce.
He approached her and said, “You haven’t had anything to eat for the entire day, Mrs. Morrison.”
The woman’s gaze was fixated somewhere in the distance. Her eyes were damp. She suppressed the agonizing feeling in her chest and shook her

“I’m not hungry.”
Jon’t need to worry, Mrs. Morrison. The general will be fine.”
Sniffling, she lifted her head to look at the man and said, “Could you get someone to save him, Cole? Please go save him, I beg of you.”
Cole was incredibly torn. “I’m sorry, Mrs. Morrison. We’re under strict orders from the general. The Norvanian Military can’t cross into Muzat territory. It’ll escalate into a political dispute and risk a war breaking out.”
“Then what about Nathan?” Suzanne stood up and asked with bloodshot
eyes.
“No need to worry. There are still mercenaries there with him. Besides, the general can handle himself just fine,” he explained.
Suzanne sat down listlessly and buried her face in her knees, weeping
silently.
She waited until nightfall and still hadn’t received any word of his return.
Throughout two days of waiting, she couldn’t eat or sleep well and becextremely exhausted. The thought of Nathan potentially being in danger made her feel like crying.
Sometafter midnight, there was a knock on the door.
Suzanne instantly jolted awake at the sound. Then, she hopped off the bed to open the door.
She was greeted by Cole with a nervous expression.
“Mrs. Morrison, General Morrison is back.”
In a split moment, the woman felt alive again. She rushed out anxiously, her eyes gleaming with tears.
“Where? Where is he?” she asked as she walked. “Is he okay? Did he get hurt? Where is he? I want to see him.”
Cole kept up with her in large strides. “At the military hospital.”
Heart shattered at the mention of the hospital. Concerned, her pace
hastened into a sprint.
Upon reaching the hospital, she pushed the door to the room open, panting.

She looked incredibly worn out and was out of breath. She stood there unmoving, her eyes fixed on him.
The pair stared at each other with an emotional gaze. It was as though they’d been separated by life and death multiple times. Now that they were reunited, they were both trying their hardest to suppress their emotions.
Suzanne cupped a hand over her mouth to stop herself from crying out loud. Her head hung low as she took deep breaths.
A moment later, she recomposed herself and wiped the tears off her face before walking over. Afraid she wouldn’t be able to stop herself from crying, she couldn’t bring herself to speak to him first.
He glanced at her teary eyes and asked softly, “Why are you crying?”
She shook her head. Her heart was in pain over the sight of the bloody knife wounds all over his body.
The doctor bandaged his wounds and turned to Suzanne. He then advised while cleaning up,
“Mrs. Morrison, Mr. Morrison’s injuries might not be life–threatening, but they’re still quite serious. I’ve given him stitches and bandaged all his
wounds.
