Nina lowered her head, feeling shy despite being in her thirties. She could not bring herself to meet Zoe’s gaze.Nash said, "We’re not deliberately flaunting anything. I owe Nina too much. Now, whatever she wants, as long as it’s within my power, I’ll give it to her."And even if it was not within his power, he would move heaven and earth to make it happen."Alright, alright, no need to tell me all this. Do whatever makes you happy," Zoe quickly waved her hand, signaling she had heard enough.Zoe stayed at the York residence because she adored Orion. Nash, meanwhile, took charge of every detail of the wedding, refusing to leave anything to chance.On the wedding day, many close friends came. Hunter, Caleb, Ben, Yvonne, and even Eve. Grandpa George, despite his age, personally came to offer his blessings to Nash. Pharaoh, Micah, and Freya were also there, as well as Scarlett and James.Scarlett and James had planned to marry that year, but James’s commitments kept delaying their
At that moment, Nash and Nina were exchanging rings when Remi burst in."Wait! You’re already finishing the ceremony, and I haven’t even given you my gift yet?" Remi’s loud voice cut through the crowd, leaving the guests exchanging uneasy glances. Those who knew her could not hide their discomfort. Pharaoh shot Micah a glance, and Micah strode over to confront her."Can’t whatever you need wait until after the wedding?" Micah’s tone was firm as he approached, with Freya quickly joining him, surrounding Remi.This time, Freya was not just a bystander. She was here to protect.Remi smirked. "Didn’t I make myself clear? I’m here to deliver a wedding gift. Why are you all so tense? It’s just me, after all. It’s not like I could ruin the whole wedding on my own, right?"Though Remi had arrived alone, no one was ready to let their guard down. After all, she was once Nash’s arranged fiancée under Dominic’s orders. And she had never truly let go of her feelings for him.Micah firmly gr
"The whole thing with Miranda," Nash began, his voice firm, "was because she once saved my life. I owed her a debt of gratitude. I didn’t explain before because I didn’t want to make things worse, and honestly, I don’t need to explain myself to anyone. But now, I’m committed to being with Nina, and I won’t tolerate anyone trying to slander or hurt her."He paused, glancing toward Remi. "As for the woman standing here today, she’s someone my biological father arranged for me to marry. From the start, I made my feelings clear that I don’t love her, and I never intended to marry her."He continued, "I appreciate your presence at my wedding to Nina, and I welcome it. But if you're here with any other intentions, there's nothing I can do about that."Nash’s tone sharpened. "I’ve said everything that needed to be said. Anything beyond this is not my concern, and I won’t be offering further explanations."With those final words, he signaled to Quincy, who arrived with security. Remi’s s
Nash pursed his lips, just about to say something, when Nina walked over. "Dad, I know about the fiancée. It was arranged by his biological father, and he never accepted it from the beginning."Zion frowned, "Are you sure you're not just covering for him?"Nina had always stood by Nash, even in the past when she did not ask for any title, not even a wedding. Nash had revealed in front of everyone that he was not part of the York family, making it clear how much Nina meant to him. He was willing to face public judgment just to protect her. The wedding was grand, and it was undoubtedly unforgettable.Nina smiled softly, "Dad, after everything we've been through, we have a child, and we’ve remarried. We’re a team now."Being a team meant helping each other out as a couple. Wasn’t that normal?"Nash, I'm warning you, don't you dare treat her like before, or I won’t let you off easy!" Zion’s stern gaze locked onto Nash.Nash tightened his arm around Nina's waist. "Don't worry, Fathe
Nina had also taken in Orion, not knowing he was her biological son, raising him as her own. Even Wilfred's presence was proof of her kind heart.Zion could see that Pharaoh genuinely cared for Nina. "Since you're in Birkham, why not stay for a while and enjoy yourself?" he suggested, knowing that they were all here for Nina’s sake. This made them allies, especially since Pharaoh was her real father.Pharaoh nodded. He had already made up his mind to stay close to his daughter and grandson.The wedding day had all the usual events, including the traditional wedding games. Nash had considered skipping that part, but decided against it. He thought that without it, the wedding would not feel complete. The guests engaged the couple in lighthearted games, making Nash and Nina the focus of teasing and playful challenges. They found themselves kissing multiple times to the delight and laughter of everyone around them. They even shared a traditional toast.The games lasted until 1 or 2 A
Freya's voice was raspy as she spoke. "Micah, we've had a good time together these past few weeks, haven’t we?"She stepped closer to him, tilting her head up to meet his gaze since he was much taller. His sharp features, like a perfectly sculpted work of art, were exactly the kind Freya was obsessed with.Micah pressed his lips together, his mind drifting back to their time together. It had indeed been enjoyable. Freya had never thrown tantrums and she was always considerate of him. But the weight of responsibility on his shoulders was immense. He was leading the Yaren Tribe people, and much of his future would be dedicated to them. In the end, wouldn’t he be neglecting Freya?"Freya, you agreed to a month. People should keep their promises," Micah said quietly, trying to use the idea of honoring commitments to steer her away from further attachment.Freya felt her throat tighten, her heart squeezed painfully. They say time reveals true feelings. Micah had seen her sincerity, ye
Freya nodded. "Birkham is such a great place, and being close to you is a bonus. I’ve thought about staying longer, but Micah and I need to return to Yaren Tribe to continue building our community. We’ll stay and enjoy the area for a little while, though.""Got it. If you're planning to travel, having the child with you would just be inconvenient. Let my brother show you around instead. Birkham has so many beautiful places to explore," Nina replied.Freya wanted to help, but Nina was also thinking about them. Freya had worked hard to earn this time with Micah, and Nina did not want that effort to go to waste.Nina said, "My father and Quincy can look after the child. You two just focus on enjoying yourselves."After waving goodbye, they got into the car, and suddenly Nash remembered something important. "How could I forget that?" Nash muttered, his expression turning serious.Nina looked at him, puzzled. "What did you forget?"Nash sighed. "I can't believe I overlooked this. I
Feeling a bit embarrassed by Nina's words, Freya looked down shyly. Micah's deep voice broke the silence. "Since we’ve run into each other and it's about time for dinner, why don't we eat together?"Nina immediately jumped in. "We’ve booked a stay at a nearby guesthouse. Follow me."Leading the way, they soon arrived at a cozy guesthouse. Nash called a server, and with Nina and Nash being regulars, they recommended the house specialties to Freya and Micah.The meal was ordered with variety in mind. There were about a dozen dishes to give their guests a true taste of the local cuisine, though in small portions. When Freya reached for shrimp, Micah, ever the gentleman, peeled them for her without hesitation. Meanwhile, Nash was not about to be outdone in serving his wife, making sure she was equally pampered.As they enjoyed their meal, Nina poured Freya a drink. "There are plenty of sights to see around here. Since we’ve bumped into each other, how about we explore together?"
