Chapter 1073

Author: Faith Shaw
"That's it? You're just giving up?" Nina's mind was racing, but deep down, she was anxious.

She was worried the woman would keep pursuing Nash. It wasn’t men’s wandering hearts that scared her, it was when other women got serious. No man could resist temptation when it’s served to him on a silver platter.

"Nash, consider yourself lucky," Nina muttered under her breath.

Suddenly, someone blocked her path. She looked up, locking eyes with Nash, his gaze filled with tenderness.

"Aren't there other women looking for you? Why aren't you with them? Go on, make them happy, so..."

"Then I'll go."

Nina grabbed his arm. "Don't you dare."

Taking advantage of the moment, Nash stole a quick kiss, grinning mischievously. "I wouldn't dare, and I won't. You and Orion are all I need."

Reassured by his words, Nina's face lit up with joy.

The little incident made them forget all about the earlier unpleasantness. They wandered through the carnival, eating and drinking as they went.

    Michael, somewhat reluctant, pulled Zoe aside. "Zoe, I really like you. No matter who you are, I like you just the way you are."Zoe, though not Nash’s biological aunt, had become highly regarded by him after the recent turmoil at York Corporation. Nash now treated Zoe as his own family. This was evident from how Zoe had become involved in the company’s advertising campaigns.Michael had worked hard to build a connection with her and wasn’t about to let it slip away. But Zoe was unaware of his intentions; to her, Michael just seemed outdated in his thinking.She glanced at Nina for help, but before she could react, Michael cupped Zoe’s face in his hands. Startled, she immediately pushed him away.Nina let out a scream and rushed over to Zoe, clinging to her while crying hysterically. The tears and cries made it seem like Zoe had truly broken her heart."You can’t be with him! I won’t allow it! You promised me. You said you’d never leave me…" Her voice trailed off as she choked on

    Sally did not spare Xavier a glance. She had no interest in the affairs of York Corporation. Xavier chuckled. "Mrs. York, I wouldn’t be here without a reason. Haven’t you heard? There's been a major shake-up at York Corp. Nash has gotten rid of all of the previous CEO’s people. The company is truly his now."Sally responded with a nonchalant "Oh," without adding anything more.Undeterred, Xavier continued with a smile. "Mrs. York, if York Corporation were still under the old leadership, you wouldn't be stuck in a place like this. I heard you wanted to go abroad, but financial support has been an issue. And honestly, that's all because Nash has monopolized everything.""What are you getting at?" Sally finally spoke, but her expression remained calm.Xavier, no longer able to contain himself, leaned in and whispered a few words.A small smile crept onto Sally's lips. "Alright, I'll leave the arrangements to you, Mr. Wright."Xavier was so delighted that he nearly jumped for joy,

    "You’re so thoughtful," Sally said with a hint of emotion. "To be honest, I almost forgot about that myself. Yes, I did once dream of settling in Ponyville, but..." She trailed off, leaving the rest unsaid, but everyone understood.Nina handed her a gift box with a smile. "Let’s not dwell on anything unpleasant. This is a gift we prepared for you. Take a look and see if you like it."Sally opened the box and was shocked to find a set of keys and a property deed inside. Her surprise only deepened when she realized the deed was for a home in Ponyville. Tears welled up uncontrollably.Nina stepped forward to comfort her. "You can choose anyone you want to accompany you, and we’ve already taken care of the medical team. Nash has made sure everything is arranged."Zoe was stunned. She had suspected Sally’s sudden family gathering had ulterior motives and had been worried Nash might lose out. But now it was clear. Nash never lets himself get taken advantage of.

    "The driver already said it was one fare. Just count it as mine, no need to pay me back," Michael said as he paid for the ride. After getting out, he walked around to open Zoe’s door.Nina arrived just in time to witness the scene. Without thinking, she rushed over and stood protectively in front of Zoe. "You two are together?" She sounded genuinely jealous, which made Zoe flash a thumbs-up in appreciation.Michael chuckled softly. "Nina, should I call you Mrs. York or Miss Nina?"Both Nina and Zoe froze. It turned out Michael had known the truth all along, but he had been pretending to be clueless. Zoe had no desire to deal with him any further, so she grabbed Nina and headed into the building, ignoring him completely."Zoe, I’ve told you, I like you. No matter how you treat me, I’m not giving up. You’ll be mine, no matter what!" Michael’s voice echoed in the lobby, drawing the attention of nearby employees. Recognizing who they were, whispers quickly spread.Zoe dismissed his

    After taking a few sips, Zoe immediately knew something was wrong. With her usual tolerance, there was no way she should feel this dizzy and unsteady. The drink was spiked. Michael had done it.Realizing this, Zoe moved closer to Leo next to her and asked, "Leo, did you drive here? I'm suddenly feeling unwell. Could you give me a ride?"Leo quickly exchanged glances with Michael and nodded. "Sure, I haven't had anything to drink," he replied, guiding her out. While Zoe wasn’t looking, he signaled Michael to follow. Michael exited through another door and got into the car ahead of them.When Leo opened the car door, Zoe spotted Michael sitting in the front passenger seat. She frowned. "Why is he here?""Oh, he's a friend of mine. We came together. Since I'm leaving, I thought I'd bring him along. Don't worry, I'll drop you off first," Leo explained, trying to sound reassuring.But his words only made Zoe more alert. She pulled away from him, backing up cautiously. These two wer

    "No need," Nash said calmly. "So, Eugene from the Lowe family is back in Birkham."As the man turned away, Nash recognized him. Eugene Lowe was the carefree and unrestrained son of the Lowe family who had spent his youth wandering the world. He had grown up a lot since then.The Lowe family was known for their strict upbringing. While they didn’t demand their children become outstanding, their character had to be impeccable. Nash believed Eugene wouldn’t harm Zoe. And even if he did… A thought crossed Nash’s mind, and a sly smile appeared. If something did happen, he wouldn’t hesitate to pressure the Lowe family into marrying Zoe off to him. Forming an alliance with the Lowe family wouldn’t be a bad thing after all."But Mr. York," his subordinate continued, "the drug they gave Miss Zoe is a powerful sedative. It's one of the strongest out there."Nash’s eyebrow twitched slightly at that. Could something really be happening?At the hospital, Eugene stood outside the emergenc

    Eugene took the breakfast from the butler, carefully opening each container and setting them on the small table. His meticulousness surprised the butler. "Mr. Lowe, let me handle it," the butler offered. He was trying to gauge whether Zoe was really Eugene's girlfriend or just someone brought in to appease Eugene’s grandmother, Mrs. Lowe Sr.Eugene saw through him instantly and immediately put on a stern face. "What, I’m taking care of my girlfriend, and you want to take over? Have you forgotten my rules just because I’ve been away all these years?"The butler quickly backtracked. "Of course not. I only wanted to be of service. Since you're handling it, I'll take my leave."With a wave of his hand, Eugene dismissed him and sat by Zoe’s bedside, feeding her soup."Careful, it's hot. This chicken soup is full of nutrients. If you ever want more, just let me know, and I'll have them make it for you. Whatever you want to eat, I'll make sure they cook it.""Promise? You better not be

    Zoe shot a reproachful glance at Nash. Nina, aware of the matchmaking gathering, patted Zoe’s shoulder comfortingly. "Alright, Nash had good intentions that just went wrong. You must not have slept well. Go take a nap, and I'll cook something nice for lunch to treat you.""You're the best," Zoe said, giving Nina a quick kiss on the cheek before happily running upstairs.Nina noticed an unusual glint of amusement in Nash's eyes, almost like a shrewd hunter savoring his strategy. She wrapped her arm around his and leaned in closer. "Mr. York, is there something good you're not telling me?"With Nina in his arms, Nash couldn't resist. He pulled her in for a deep kiss, leaving her breathless."Are you going to tell me or not?" she demanded, a bit flustered at how easily she still lost her breath during a kiss.Nash leaned in and whispered in her ear, "The one who saved Zoe last night was Eugene Lowe."Eugene Lowe? Nina thought for a moment before remembering the Lowe family. He w

    At the time, Wilfred had already guessed that this had everything to do with Harley and his mentor, Professor Zeller. “You and your so-called association don’t focus on benefiting patients. Instead, you spend all your time trying to monopolize everything. And now you want to turn me into one of you? Keep dreaming.” Wilfred’s tone was filled with disdain, his eyes cold with contempt. The smug smile on Harley’s face slowly faded. With a sneer, Harley’s voice turned bitter. “You know what I despise most about you? That self-righteous, holier-than-thou attitude of yours. I was offering you advice, but if you don’t want to hear it, fine. There’s nothing more to say. After all, if the surgery fails—” Before he could finish the word “fail,” the surgical light outside the operating room flicked off. Clack!The sliding doors parted, and Karina burst through, her face flushed with emotion. She didn’t even notice Harley. Her focus zeroed in on Wilfred. “Wilfred!” Her voice trem

    As the surgery approached, Karina worked overtime, meticulously double-checking for any possible oversights. Before stepping into the operating room, she took a deep breath."Karina, you’ve got this!" a nurse beside her encouraged.This surgery was particularly significant, and the assistants and nurses weren’t from her hospital. They were brought in by the project, specifically by Harley’s team. Without a single familiar face around, Karina felt a twinge of anxiety. Opportunities to lead surgeries were already rare for her, let alone under circumstances like this, with no one she could truly rely on.But there was no turning back now. Gritting her teeth, Karina donned her gloves. As she was about to enter the operating room, her peripheral vision caught sight of a figure standing silently in the distance. It was Wilfred. His steady gaze met hers, his eyes carrying something profound she couldn’t quite decipher. When their eyes locked, a faint smile curved his lips.In th

    “Ava.”A deep voice cut through the air, and Karina turned to see a man in a black suit, wearing a hat and a mask, striding toward them. But the man’s white eyelashes and distinctive eyes were all Karina needed to recognize him. He was her albino patient, Xavier Jasper!Xavier also didn’t expect to run into both Wilfred and Karina here. “It’s you two,” he exclaimed in surprise.Wilfred’s gaze sharpened as he calmly addressed Xavier. “Keep your sister in line. Apologize.”Before Xavier could respond, Ava stepped forward and, to everyone’s surprise, said, “I’m sorry. I was too impulsive. Please forgive me.” Karina was taken aback by how quickly Ava apologized. Even Xavier, who knew his sister’s arrogant tendencies well, looked stunned.Karina nodded, her tone steady but firm. “I forgive you, but that doesn’t mean everyone else will. You should work on your attitude. Stop acting so entitled everywhere you go.” With that, Karina turned on her heel and walked away. Although Xavie

    ”Those were her meticulously compiled notes, the result of hours of hard work—and now they were ruined just like that?” Karina thought.“I’ve never wronged you. Why would you do something like this?” she demanded, her voice trembling with indignation. Something about the situation felt off, and Karina’s sharp intuition told her this wasn’t a simple misunderstanding.Under Karina’s intense gaze, the nurse finally broke down, revealing Ava’s role in orchestrating the whole thing. Karina’s anger turned into a mix of rage and incredulous amusement. “Really? Rich people—did they all enjoy throwing money around like this?”All this trouble, just to ruin her hard-earned work over a seat?Her carefully compiled notes were gone, and there wasn’t a second copy. Arguing wouldn’t bring them back, but Ava wasn’t going to let this slide without giving someone a piece of her mind.Finding Ava wasn’t difficult. In fact, Ava didn’t even try to avoid her. She seemed to be waiting, eager to see

    Just as Ava was about to cause a scene, the sound of steady footsteps filled the room. Wilfred strode in, his white coat enhancing his composed, almost ethereal aura. Ava shot Karina a glare, silently committing her to memory, then begrudgingly found another seat. Wilfred’s gaze swept across the room, pausing ever so briefly on Karina before moving on. She wasn’t sure if it was real or just her imagination. “Today, we’ll discuss cellular structures. I’ll start with an example from my doctoral thesis,” Wilfred announced, adjusting the projector. To Karina’s surprise, he was an exceptional lecturer—clear, engaging, and far more comprehensible than many university professors. She listened intently, taking meticulous notes. Yvette peeked over at Karina’s notebook, wide-eyed at the densely packed writing. “Karina, when you eventually get promoted, land a big raise, or go for your doctorate, I promise I won’t be jealous. Truly.”Karina chuckled. “If you need these notes, I can len

    Karina glanced at the time and quickly gestured for Yvette to sit down as well. However, barely had they taken their seats when a haughty woman marched up to Karina, her sharp gaze fixed on the chair she was sitting on. “You, get up. I want that seat!” Karina frowned, studying the unfamiliar woman. She didn’t recognize her from the hospital, but the designer jewelry around her neck and the branded bag on her arm screamed wealth. She seemed like the kind of entitled socialite who rarely had to fight for anything, let alone a seat.Unsure if the woman was trying to pick a fight or genuinely wanted the chair, Karina pointed to the open seats nearby. “There are plenty of seats over there. Take one of those.”Then, she lowered her head, dismissing the woman entirely.The woman’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Excuse me? I said I want your seat. Get up. Now!” Not content with words alone, she reached out to pull Karina up by force. Karina, now genuinely angry, shook her off. “I was h

    Karina looked slightly surprised. She distinctly remembered that Wilfred wasn’t a drinker. “I thought you avoided alcohol?” Wilfred, ever the epitome of control and composure, preferred to steer clear of anything that dulled his sharpness. Back when they worked at the Birkham Central Hospital, she had seen him reject bottles of expensive wine from people trying to curry favor with him. He sipped his tea slowly before replying, “You’ve started at a new hospital. As your former mentor, I haven’t given you a proper congratulatory gift yet.” “This is… for me?” Karina asked, her voice tinged with disbelief. Wilfred’s gaze was steady as he replied, “Don’t like it? If not, I can send it back and we can find something else later.” He raised his hand to call the server over. “Wait! No need. I like it a lot,” Karina interjected hastily, stopping him in his tracks. The idea of going gift shopping with him later felt uncomfortably like a date. And knowing Wilfred’s personality, w

    Wilfred’s gaze swept over her without a word, and Karina climbed into the car on her own. When choosing her seat, she instinctively moved toward the back, but before she could get in, Wilfred spoke, “Sit in the front. It’s more convenient.” Karina hesitated briefly. Not wanting to appear overly particular, she complied and took the passenger seat. Although there was a saying that the front seat was reserved for a girlfriend, Wilfred didn’t strike her as someone who cared about such details. She decided to pretend she didn’t know. After buckling her seatbelt, a phone suddenly appeared in front of her. She looked up, her face full of confusion and surprise. Wilfred glanced sideways at her, one hand on the steering wheel, the car still stationary. “I haven’t decided on a restaurant yet. I’ll be driving soon. You pick something.” Karina took the phone. As Wilfred drove, she scrolled through the options, narrowing it down to three restaurants. But her mild indecisivenes

    Karina forced a smile. “Really, it’s fine. You all go ahead.”Yvette pouted, her disappointment clear as she relented. “Alright then.”Once the others had left, Karina tried to refocus on work. She pulled out her research materials, determined to get something done. Yet, no matter how hard she tried, her thoughts kept wandering. The cheerful chatter from outside finally snapped her out of it, making her realize just how distracted she had been.Karina gave a wry smile and muttered to herself, “This is why you don’t get ahead of yourself. Seriously, one of life’s biggest delusions.”For a fleeting moment, she had thought Wilfred might feel something for her too. But it was better this way, she told herself—better to wake up now than to fall in too deep later. Romance wasn’t her strong suit; focusing on her career was safer.While others might drown their heartbreak in food or a night out, Karina chose the most grueling outlet: work. It might be exhausting, but it was effective. S
