Female Novel
Chapter 1736
Nathan asked with a frown, "Faustus? Who the hell is he?”Colin replied, “He's the subordinate of the Goldstein family from Brimmopolis.”"The Goldstein family? Why are they coming after my wife when I have never offended them?
Colin crated, “Do you still remember Clifford's previous spouse, Gillian? She's the heiress of the Goldstein family. The duo has a son, Ceaser. Eversince they filed for divorce, they became closer than ever. Since Clifford has the chance to become the president, the Goldstein family will definitelysupport him with everything they have.”
He paused and raised his concerns, stating in a hushed voice, “I believe they are the one behind the assassination of Mrs. Cross and the reason youhave been dispatched back to the North.
Nathan's expression darkened when he heard Colin's words.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Colin decided to tell Nathan the thing he had on his mind. “Instead of Mrs. Cross, I believe you're the one they'recoming after. Perhaps they want to throw you off balance by putting Mrs. Cross's life at stake. Once you commit any mistake, they'll grab theopportunity and take you out immediately.
Nathan dead-panned, “They're such a vicious bunch!”Colin surveyed the surroundings and noticed they were quite a distance away from others.
Since others couldn't hear their conversation, he suggested, “General, perhaps it's merely a baseless accusation when the Cabinet said Xyperiawould ambush the North soon. I'm certain those from Xyperia don't have the gut to wage war against the North, but those from the Goldstein familymay come after Mrs. Cross again since they couldn't get her during their last attempt. In my humble opinion, you shouldn't return to the Northbecause Mrs. Cross needs you by her side.”Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
Nathan shock his head and rebuked, “No! Xyperia is intimidated by the North because they're not aware of my absence. What if they figure out I'mnot there and decide to try their luck? I can't allow them to launch an ambush on the North! Apart from that, the Cabinet has instructed me to return tothe North. If I don't adhere to the instruction, they'll make a fuss out of it and get rid of me.”
If that's the case, I guess we'll have to send someone to keep an eye on Mrs. Cross and ensure her safety when we're not around. However, I'mafraid the candidates available are no match for the hitmen from the Goldstein family! What should we do if anything happens to Mrs. Cross?
Nathan went dead silent at that score because he was aware of the reason he was dispatched back to the North—the Goldstein family wanted tothreaten him with his wife.
He was in a tight spot because there wasn't a win-win solution
When he thought he had run out of options, he thought of something and shared the great news with Colin.
“ just came out with a perfect solution that will allow me to deceive Xyperia and Clifford as well as the member of his party into believing I'mback in the North while keeping my family safe!
Colin was confused. He asked, “General, you can't possibly clone yourself, can you? How are you supposed to be at the North and Channing at thesame time?
Nathan whispered into Colin's ears with a smirk.
His subordinate’ s jaw dropped openwhen he heard the plan. Colin =~exclaimed, ° ‘It's such a brilliant plan!You get to keep those from Xyperiaat the bay and protect Mrs. Cross atthe-same time!” Content belongs toNovelDrama.Org od
A few hours later, the plane touched down at Channing International Airport.Benson, Leah, and Queenie had reached the airport beforehand in anticipation of Nathan's arrival. They had Ava by their side to keep them safe.

He paused for a few seconds before stating, "Don’t worry, Mr. Goldstein. Since Nathan has departed to the North, we can deal with Penny howeverwe desire since no one is around to
protect him!”
Ceaser scoffed, “I'l deal with her myself this time! I want you to gather a team of elites and join me for a trip to Channing! We'll definitely get Penny!”“Yes!”
