The wrong Woman novel by Ginny Not Genie novel Chapter 451

Having experienced Fenna's tactics before, Mila responded calmly, "We were never truly together, so how can there be a breakup?"

Fenna retorted, "Then why are you here to see him?"

Seizing the moment, Mila countered, "You used to boast to me, claiming you'd been dating Nate for a month and warning me to stay away from him. What's your plan today to drive me away?"

Fenna clenched her fists, her face flushed red with anger, but she remained silent.

"You didn't see him last night, did you?" Mila pressed on, unperturbed. "You came here today to discuss work, didn't you?"

Gritting her teeth, Fenna maintained her silence.

Shielding her eyes from the harsh sunlight with her hand, Mila muttered, "It's too bright." With that, she brushed past Fenna.

Suddenly, Fenna called out, "Chubs Hoffis, wait!"

It was the first time Fenna had addressed her by her full name, not as "Ms. Hoffis". Mila wondered if she had abandoned pretense altogether.

Mila moved to a shaded area and turned to face Fenna. "Ms. Hudson, is there something else?"

Taking a deep breath, Fenna approached Mila, her words resolute. "Chubs Hoffis, don't think you're so special just because Nate likes you. You're from Sunterland. You'll return eventually.

"As for me, I can be Nate's lifelong friend and colleague. We have a lifetime together, but you and him, don't."

Her words were sharp and painfully honest, like a knife piercing Mila's chest. Mila felt her heart dripping with blood, aching and torn.

It was an undeniable truth, one she couldn't deny.

Mila, despite the discomfort lingering in her heart, murmured gently, "Nate, I'm not here to seduce you. I simply wanted to see you."

Nathan chuckled softly, "Does an innocent woman throw herself into a man's arms upon meeting?"

Mila's grip tightened, a hint of annoyance in her voice. "Are you saying I'm not innocent?"

Sensing her unease, Nathan softened his tone, coaxing, "You are. It's me who's not. Maybe I have a magnetic pull that draws you in."

Mila couldn't resist a laugh, feeling a weight lift from her shoulders. Slowly, she released him and stepped back.

Nathan's eyes held warmth, reluctant to let go of her, though he maintained a composed demeanor. "So, what's brought you here today?" he asked.
