Back at the Headquarters of the Chief Military Governor, a female military doctor had just finished examining Penny. She turned to Nathan and reported, “Sir, Mrs. Cross is fine. She just needs some rest.”
Hearing that, both Nathan and Penny heaved a sigh of relief.
After all, as the saying goes, “Once bitten, twice shy.”
Nathan's lips curved. “Doctor, thank you. You can get back to work now.”
The female military doctor
responded, “Yes, Sir!”
She soon left.
Nathan summoned Ava and said calmly, “I've gathered one hundred elites from Felidae Battalion. They will wear suits and be tasked to protect Penny. You have to put your guard up and protect her well. Nothing can happen to her!”
Ava nodded. “Yes, Sir!”
Nathan added, “Also, without my approval, no one or no organization can take Penny away.”
Ava responded, “Roger that. If anything out of the ordinary happens, I will do my best to protect Mrs. Cross with the others and keep in touch with you."
Nathan gave an approving nod.
“Great!”
He chatted with Penny briefly, then told her to relax for the sake of their baby and that he would handle everything else.
After that, he left the room.
Back in his office, Colin and Sage were already waiting for him with their hands behind their backs.
