"Chubs," Nathan said. He smiled softly as he gazed at her with affection.

Mila looked up with her eyes shimmering. She asked, "Hmm?"

He expressed himself with full affection, "The country needs you."

Mila put on a sweet smile. She asked softly, "What about you?"

Mila was very worried about his weak body as she held him. She had no time to worry about anything else. She said, "Nate, let me help you to bed."

"Wanda," Nathan murmured, "Do you understand what I mean?"

Liking Daniel would only result in getting hurt.

Mila was on the verge of tears. She was deeply worried and felt sorry for him.

She held onto him tightly, unwilling to let go of her hands, and said, "Nate, let me call Cole for help. I'm afraid I can't support you on my own."
