Chapter 166

Author: Faith Shaw
Nina understood Sally's nature. Her remarks were merely to ease her own conscience. Julia initially didn't want to engage further, but Sally's words irritated her. "You have the nerve to speak up! Your son cheats, fathers a child outside, and you call it an affair within marriage!"

Sally retorted, "Stop talking nonsense! Your daughter can't conceive, so you won't allow my son to have a child outside?"

"Shut up!" Nash's voice was icy.

Sally glanced at him, noticing his paleness, and toned down. "Alright, I'll shut up. You're still weak; you should lie down."

Zion intervened, "Nina, let's go. There's no point in arguing here."

Talking a hundred times wouldn't change anything. Nash's gaze met Nina's; they locked eyes briefly before she averted hers. "Okay, Dad," she said without looking back, walking over to Zion.

Nash watched her resolute figure, his brows furrowed, his gaze unwavering, yet he didn't utter a word to ask her to stay.

"Nash," Sally said, supporting him, while Linda

    Sally gazed at Nash, lying in the hospital bed, his complexion looking poor. It was clear that his interest in this girl indicated that he still had lingering feelings for Miranda. This realization made things simpler.Linda's thoughts were consumed by Nash. She suggested to Sally, "No one is taking care of Nash here. Why don't I take care of him?"Sally immediately dismissed the idea, concerned for Linda's well-being. "You can't do that," she objected. "You're pregnant, and you need to be cautious. Come back to the York residence with me. Nash has plenty of people to look after him. Take care of yourself."Despite her strong desire to stay and care for Nash, Linda couldn't argue with Sally's reasoning. She could only respond, "Okay."Reluctantly, Linda's eyes lingered on Nash. She held onto the hope that once he recovered, he would return home, and they would be able to spend more time together.Sally was worried about Miranda. With Nash injured, and his relationship with Nina in

    Miranda announced, "I need to go to the hospital."The director was taken aback. Nobody had ever disrupted filming so abruptly for a hospital visit.Miranda clarified, "Director, Nash got injured and is in the hospital. I'm worried about him and want to check on his condition."Realizing it was Nash, and considering that he had introduced Miranda to the production, the director felt obliged to show her some leniency."Fine, you can go," he reluctantly agreed. Although he wasn't pleased about halting production for a day, he had no choice but to endure it.Miranda felt a wave of relief. At least she wouldn't lose her role due to her absence. She smiled and said, "Thank you, director. Nash and I will treat you to dinner after we finish filming."With that, she hurried away.Other actors began to voice their complaints."Director, you can't let the whole crew suffer because of one person. My mother is sick, but I haven't left the set. Why does she get preferential treatment?"The

    Regardless of his anger, Nash should not joke about his own health. However, Nash couldn't focus on Quincy's words because his mind was consumed with Nina's decision to leave. When did it become her turn to leave him behind?"Call Nina," Nash said, his expression icy.Quincy hesitated, not fully comprehending Nash's intentions. Their marriage reaching this point was unexpected and bewildering. No wonder they kept it a secret. Quincy used to believe that Nash loved Nina, but now it appeared that his love wasn't as strong as he had imagined.Taking out his phone, Quincy said, "Alright, Mr. York."He dialed Nina's number. Coincidentally, Nina happened to be at home with her parents at that moment.Zion insisted on being discharged from the hospital even though the doctor said his fracture wasn't severe. They agreed to let him leave, but there was a lingering silence among them. They avoided discussing the incident, even though their faces didn't show much happiness.Lily and Sue wer

    Quincy glanced at Nash once more. "Nina said it is on the left side of the walk-in closet. You can ask the helper to find."Nash furrowed his brows. "What about the overcoat? The one that's camel-colored?""That coat is hanging in the wardrobe," Nina added."No need for a sweater, I'll wear a suit. Find the blue striped tie," Nash instructed.Nina frowned. "Which blue tie are you referring to? We have several.""The one with vertical stripes.""It's in the twenty-eighth slot of the tie box," Nina promptly replied, anticipating Nash's next question.To avoid further inquiries, Nina decided to provide all the details. "Mr. York, all your suits and shirts, except those at the dry cleaner's, are in the wardrobe and easily accessible for the helper. As for the winter clothes, they're neatly stored in the walk-in closet. I've organized them by category, making it easy for the helper to find. The ties are also sorted and stored in separate compartments, with each tie color-coded. There

    "Thank you," Quincy said politely, glancing at Nash. He felt relieved as he noticed Nash's softened expression.Originally, Nina had planned to have dinner with her parents, but now it seemed unlikely.Nina approached her mother, Julia, who was making her bed, and said, "Mom, I need to go out for a while. I won't be able to join you and Dad for dinner."Julia looked up. "Is something wrong?""It's work-related," Nina replied.Julia came closer to Nina. "Nina, if you want to change jobs, we can do that. There are plenty of good jobs out there."Julia was also concerned about Nina's well-being. If she and Nash divorced, it would be awkward for Nina to stay with him."I understand, Mom," Nina acknowledged.Nina had also been pondering on the same topic. If she and Nash divorced, she couldn't stay with him.It was time to let go.Leaving her home, Nina returned to the York residence.There, the helper still respectfully addressed her as "Madam."Everything seemed normal, as if

    Seeing Linda’s gesture, even if her marriage with Nash fell apart, this bed was still where she slept. She didn't like others touching it. As she reached out, she grabbed Linda’s hand. "Do you know which one it is?"Linda paused, deeming the question trivial. "It's just a sweater; I can handle it."If Nina could handle it, so could she. Nina maintained a stoic expression. "If you wish to occupy this position, it depends on whether you're capable." She glanced at the sizable bed. "Nash has very specific preferences. Even with something as simple as a sweater, he will specify whether it should be white or black. If he doesn't like it... it will be disastrous.""Don't try to intimidate me!" Linda didn't believe her. Last time Nina warned her, it was simply to deter her. "It's cold now, and Nash only wants warm clothing. There wouldn't be so many demands."Linda proceeded to open the wardrobe directly. The clothes inside were neatly organized, easily visible. She promptly selected a th

    Usually, Nina appeared distant and indifferent, rarely showing anger. Even when Linda pushed her boundaries, Nina remained distant, speaking only when necessary.It was only when Nina was pushed to her breaking point that Linda dared to be so bold.Linda even believed that Nina had no standing in the York family, considering herself superior, which gave her the confidence to try to dominate Nina. However, when Nina suddenly exploded and struck her, Linda felt somewhat lost. With Nash still in the hospital room, she couldn't argue with Nina and had to show weakness. With reddened eyes, she could only meekly say, "I... didn't mean to."Of course, Nina saw through her tactics, understanding that Linda was trying to put on a performance for others.Nina no longer wanted to tolerate this behavior. In the end, it was pointless, and others might perceive her as afraid.She continued, "Just a moment ago, you accused me of scheming against you. You are too self-centered. Take a good look a

    "I brought this for you," Nina said, removing it from the bag. "Is this the one?"Nash was initially unhappy, but upon seeing that she took it and didn't give it to another woman, his expression softened slightly. However, he couldn't help but question, "If you took it, why did you still let her come over?"Nina looked at Linda. "Ask her if she insisted on coming over, despite my advice. I won't take the blame for this."Nash's gaze returned to Linda. At first, Linda had hoped to show weakness, hoping that Nash would pity her. But as soon as she saw his expression, she knew something was wrong and cautiously said, "I... I just wanted to take care of you, to show you that I care. I'm sorry, it was my fault. I didn't understand clearly. I promise I'll listen next time. I won't do it again."Nash's eyes turned icy. "Get out."This was the first time Nash had treated Linda so coldly, a complete contrast to the man she had chatted with in the villa before. He had even shown sympathy an

    But instead of feeling touched, Vera’s first reaction was nausea. A wave of discomfort surged up from her stomach, and Vera’s face paled. She bolted for the bathroom. Caleb followed quickly. “Are you feeling sick?” “I don’t think so. I’ve been eating normally—nothing too heavy or weird lately.” Vera clutched her stomach, just as confused as he was. Then, a possibility flashed through her mind. Caleb clearly had the same thought. Without a word, he turned and walked into their bedroom, returning moments later with a pregnancy test. Vera looked at him, stunned. “When did you buy that?” He responded matter-of-factly, “Better safe than sorry.” Vera was momentarily speechless. Five minutes later, she stepped out of the bathroom, her hand instinctively resting on her stomach, her expression a mix of shock and disbelief. It was positive. They had only been married for three months. How did this happen so fast?Caleb, on the other hand, remained composed—at le

    Of course, Vera wasn’t about to dump all her responsibilities on her assistant. That would be exploitation. She called her assistant into her office. “You’re twenty-five this year, right?” Her assistant blinked, confused. Wasn’t her age common knowledge? Why was Vera suddenly bringing it up? A thought struck her. Was this an arranged marriage situation? Her face immediately filled with silent refusal. “Miss Vera, I’m still young. I’m not thinking about marriage anytime soon.” Vera tapped her pen against the desk. “I’m not telling you to get married.” “Oh.” “I just want to offload some of the smaller daily tasks to you. You don’t have to run every minor document by me.”Her assistant instantly understood. A raise. After confirming she was on board, Vera gave her a salary bump and had her hire a few more assistants to distribute the workload. “If I don’t have time to handle everything, you guys will take care of it. If something’s too complicated, jus

    Vera could sense danger the moment the conversation turned in this direction. Her father had never questioned her about married life, and she was lucky enough to avoid nosy relatives. But just because she hadn’t experienced it firsthand didn’t mean she hadn’t seen it happen to others. Without hesitation, she abandoned the half-folded pastry in her hands. “I... uh, need to use the restroom.” Before she could escape, Mrs. Smith caught her wrist. “You and Caleb aren’t getting any younger,” she said matter-of-factly. “You should start thinking about kids—make sure you’re putting in the effort, hmm?” Vera left the kitchen visibly drained. Mrs. Smith was a wonderful mother-in-law, the kind who treated Vera like her own daughter. Despite knowing Vera came from a well-off family, she had still gifted them a house as a wedding present. Of course, Caleb already owned a place, but his mother had insisted. “That’s your house. This is the home I’m giving you as a weddi

    That undeniable possessiveness flickered in Caleb’s gaze—subtle yet impossible to ignore. It was the kind of look a powerful man might give his beloved in an old Hollywood film. And right now, the photographer felt like the unlucky bystander who had accidentally stumbled upon an intimate scene. His voice wavered slightly, caught up in his own imagination. “Mr. Smith, lift your eyes toward the camera.” Caleb’s sharp gaze flickered over, intense and commanding. The photographer instinctively pressed the shutter. They continued with several more poses, reviewing the shots as they went. Vera loved them all, but her favorite was still the vintage-inspired one. “How long until we get the final prints?” she asked. “Two to three days at most,” the photographer replied. “I’ll have them shipped directly to you.” Then, after a slight pause, he hesitated before making a request. “I actually have a personal favor to ask—would you both be open to letting us displa

    Vera was tempted. They had already taken plenty of wedding photos—several sets at the island, more at the wedding itself. But this wasn’t just any photo studio. It was privately booked and known for being one of the most prestigious studios in the city. Appointments here were nearly impossible to get. The fact that Caleb had managed to secure a session meant he had gone to great lengths to make it happen. If they were just going to take ordinary wedding pictures, it would be a waste of an opportunity. Still, she wasn’t sure what kind of shoot she wanted. The photographer, understanding her hesitation, pulled out a sample album. “You can take a look at our past work. These are some of the styles we’ve done.” Flipping through the pages, Vera saw an array of stunning concepts—each picture more breathtaking than the last. Then, one particular set caught her eye. A Golden Age Hollywood theme.It was classic, nostalgic, and beautifully atmospheric. “Ca

    After the wedding, Vera considered taking some time off for a honeymoon. But the thought quickly faded when she realized Caleb had been practically living at the hospital. With a sigh, she dismissed the idea. She was used to it, but to say she wasn’t disappointed would be a lie. Her assistant picked up on it. “Mrs. Smith, don’t you want to go on a honeymoon?” she asked one day. “One of my friends just got married, and she’s been obsessively researching destinations. “She even said a marriage without a honeymoon is already half a failure.” Vera froze mid-page, suddenly losing interest in the documents she had been reviewing. Her assistant hesitated, then offered a suggestion. “Why don’t you go visit Dr. Smith at work?“You seem… distracted. Maybe seeing him will help.” Vera snapped out of her daze, suddenly aware of how preoccupied she had been lately. It was embarrassing to admit, but she had been zoning out far too often—especially after coming hom

    Whenever they did this in the past, Caleb always maintained some restraint. But tonight—he didn’t hold back at all. He took her from the bedroom to the bathroom, then back to the bed, his searing kisses trailing every inch of her skin. The next morning, even as she woke up, Vera could still feel the lingering traces of last night’s intoxicating pleasure. As expected, she ended up taking the day off. It wasn’t until two days later that she finally returned to work. *Everyone at the company had already prepared for this. The moment Vera walked into the office, she was greeted with knowing smiles and teasing remarks. “Congratulations, Mrs. Smith!” “Newlywed bliss, huh?” “Three whole days off? Someone had a good time.” It didn’t take a genius to figure out what she had been up to. Obviously, her married life was going exceptionally well—so well that she had completely abandoned work for it. Under the weight of their mischievous stares, Vera barely k

    Yelena still hadn’t accepted Hunter, but he wasn’t giving up either and was relentlessly closing in on her. Knowing Yelena’s soft heart, Vera figured it was only a matter of time before she gave in. She let out a sigh. Her friend’s love life wasn’t something she could interfere with. Besides, Caleb had already given her a little inside scoop. “She came to the hospital for a follow-up a few days ago,” he had mentioned casually. “Hunter was the one who brought her.” Vera had clicked her tongue at the news. Yelena always seemed quiet and reserved, but apparently, she was full of surprises.*Time flew by in the blink of an eye.By mid-month, Caleb had rented out an entire vineyard and spent several days transforming it into the perfect wedding venue.When the day arrived, the celebration took place right there.The vineyard was sprawling and elegant, every bit as grand as any luxury hotel—if not better.

    “Did you plan this from the start?” Vera narrowed her eyes, feeling like she had just walked into a carefully laid trap. “Mm.” Caleb smiled, then leaned in and pressed a soft kiss to her lips. Because yes—he had always been planning this. The biggest change in Vera’s life after the island proposal was the ring now sitting on her finger. It wasn’t just any ring. It was custom-made, something Caleb had specially ordered. She only found out by accident when she glanced at his phone one day and saw the purchase record. It had been ordered two months ago. Vera did the math and was stunned. He had been preparing for this long before she even started getting impatient. Her heart swelled with emotion. And as soon as Caleb’s parents heard that their son had finally proposed, they wasted no time pushing them to get the marriage license. *One day, Vera overheard Caleb’s mother lecturing him. “Your dad and I weren’t expecting much from you.
