Chapter 297
“Where are you? I’ll cover.” Nathan sounded meek.
A warm feeling rose in Mila’s chest. “Don’t worry. I’m already on my way over. Just tellwhere we can meet. Shall we meet in Sudvilla?”
“No, I’ll send you a location.”
“Okay. See you in a bit.”
After hanging up, Mila received the location from Nathan. After telling the driver where to go, she looked out the window at the night scenery with a heavy heart.
She hadn’t figured out how to talk to Nathan about his marriage to Sally. She had impulsively decided to meet Nathan because she didn’t want him to get married to Sally.

The car cto a stop half an hour later. The driver announced, “We’re here.”
Mila glanced around before pulling out her wallet for the fare. Just then, the driver’s window was tapped. Somebody handed the money through the window to the driver.
“Thank you,” said the driver joyfully.
Mila’s car door was pulled open before she realized what was happening.
“Con, Wanda.” Nathan’s deep voice was pleasant. It was like a breeze that calmed the soul.
After Mila stepped out of the car, she saw the person she was all too familiar with–Nathan.
He looked elegant and handsin a white shirt and black pants. They were standing in front of the picturesque Alpine Estate.
“Nate,” Mila greeted nervously. She hadn’t expected him to pick her up outside the estate.
“I’m meeting sfriends inside. Join us if you don’t mind,” Nathan said casually with one hand in his pocket.
Mila nodded. “Sure.”
They walked side by side toward the estate. The main street of the estate was lined with tall trees that were decorated with aesthetic lights, and the flower beds were brimming with a variety of flowers. The warm yellow glow of the lights made the atmosphere look especially cozy at night.
“Nate, are you feeling better?” Mila asked caringly.
“I’m fine. Why were you looking forin such a hurry? Is anything wrong?”

Clutching her phone, Mila summoned the courage to ask, “Are you going to marry Sally?”

Though mentally prepared, Mila was still heartbroken: She turned her teary eyes to Nathan. Why? You know what kind of person she is. Why do you still want to marry her?”
Nathan walked on in silence.
“There is no Sally Hoffis. Under what identity is she marrying you?”
“As Wanda Hoffis.”
“Nate, have you lost your mind?”
Nathan turned to Mila when he realized he hadn’t caught up with her. He felt a sharp pain in his heart when he saw the troubled look in her eyes.
He smiled wryly. “Were you ever in love with me, Wanda, in our childhood or after the loss of your memory?”
Mila fell silent. She was afraid to answer.
