"I have some matters to deal with at the company. Once you've sorted out your uncle's affairs, it's best not to delay work," his words left no room for debate.

She had another identity, that of Nash's secretary. Despite being separated from life, work had to be done well.

For Nina, her time at work would not last much longer. Today seemed to be her last day. Yet, she still had to fulfill her month's work as no one would be exempt from financial penalties.

If she did not show up for work, her pay would still be deducted. A few days spent in her hometown had already consumed her vacation days.

When she eventually resigned from the York Corporation, it would mark a new beginning. She needed to plan her future path carefully.

After much hesitation, Nina finally agreed. "Alright, Mr. York."

Satisfied with her answer, Nash shifted his gaze forward and Nina followed behind him.

As usual, they maintained their professional relationship, leaving behind their roles as husband and w

    Nash furrowed his brows, then asked coldly, "Was not it said that the standoff lasted for over ten minutes? No one actually showed up for that long? And in the end, it was that woman who fell off accidentally.""In the room, there were only Miranda and Linda. I thought chatting was not a big deal and did not think much about it. As for the bodyguards who were supposed to protect Miranda, it just happened that she sent them away that day." The assistant recalled everything from that day, her voice trembling slightly, afraid of being blamed by Nash.As Miranda's assistant, she had not played much of a role at a critical moment."Who called the police?" Nash asked again. "The police arrived so quickly."Based on the speed of the police response at that time, it could not be that they knew someone was targeting Miranda before calling the police. It must have been before.The assistant hesitated and did not speak. She did not know who called the police, but the police had already arriv

    He said it without any hint of coldness or indifference, "Nina's thorough questioning is also for Miranda's own good. This matter revolves around her, which is far from simple. With the uproar on the internet, there will be many doubters, far more than those questioned by Miranda. We need to find a way to silence them!"Miranda was a public figure. When a public figure was abducted and harmed, it was not just a simple case of an ordinary person being injured. Even if it were an ordinary person, it would still make headlines. But with Miranda as the main character, the situation will escalate into a major public opinion issue. Miranda knew the matter would escalate and she would surely make the headlines. But if she did not handle it this way, that woman would give birth to Nash's child! She would not allow any other woman to have Nash's child. Besides her, no one was worthy! If Linda had just lost the child, that would have been fine. She knew Nash would not like her, at most, she

    At least from his perspective, Nash and Miranda appeared innocent. They always maintained a proper distance. Despite the rampant rumors suggesting they were romantically involved, he did not think so. There might be aspects he was not aware of, but it definitely was not love.Nina chuckled, "Quincy, why are you suddenly talking to me about this? Don't you already know? That day you were there too. Nash and I are destined to divorce sooner or later."Explaining to her was pointless now. Nash started the entertainment company for Miranda, surpassing everyone else in this regard. Quincy knew this, but he still felt their marriage was not as superficial as it seemed. "I'll ask a personal question if you don't mind. Do you want to divorce Mr. York?"At this question, Nina hesitated a bit. In the past, she definitely did not want to divorce. She had been dedicated to Nash for so many years, wishing their marriage could be happy. But reality did not allow it. She could not evade reality an

    Her decision surprised Quincy a bit. Since she started working at York Corporation, he had watched her grow step by step. After working together for so many years, her sudden departure felt a bit bittersweet. But ultimately, it was Nina's personal choice.Quincy asked, "Are you really sure about this decision?"Nina smiled calmly, her emotions in check. She did not mention any elaborate plans for careful consideration. Sometimes, certain things needed to be let go of. It was a process of detachment and it was her rational choice. After all, one must love themselves first."I've made up my mind," she said.She glanced up at the sky where a few birds were circling, longing for freedom."I can't stay at York Corporation forever. I need to go out and explore more."Quincy respected Nina's decision. "Well, I hope you find happiness in the future."Nina looked at Quincy and smiled. "I will."At that moment, Nash emerged from the hospital room, unaware of their conversation. However,

    It was like he was nitpicking at her, but it was not too serious. Maybe she was just overthinking it. She followed and got into the car.As the car started, Nash held a tablet in his hand, and the atmosphere remained silent just like before. Nina also sensed it. Since she returned from her hometown, their relationship had become distant and indifferent. Nash seemed to be deliberately keeping his distance from her. Perhaps it was because of Miranda.Nash looked at the tablet, his face expressionless, his slender fingers scrolling across the screen. Then, in a subdued tone, he said, "It's getting late. I'll take you home." It was already evening when they returned from the hospital. Nina did not want to trouble Nash. By then, if he could not explain himself clearly to Miranda, she would still bear the blame. It was important for her to be cautious and avoid suspicion."No need. My car is still parked at the police station. Just drop me there, and I'll drive home myself," she refused

    "Mr. York, did you forget? Today is the day you and Nina are getting divorced. You should go to the district court to handle the formalities," Quincy reminded once again.Upon hearing this, Nash remained silent!His gaze shifted to the calendar. As soon as today arrived, it marked the completion of their three-year term, as well as the day they agreed to divorce. How time flew by so quickly. In the blink of an eye, he had been married to Nina for three years. However, Quincy was the one who understood the situation the best.Nash fidgeted with his tie in irritation, then looked at Quincy with an even colder tone, "Did Nina mention this to you?"Quincy sensed his unfriendly tone, making him uncomfortable, but he could only reply, "...Yes.""Are you close to Nina? That she'd tell you about this first?" Nash asked again.Quincy felt a knot in his throat, "We're just colleagues. We exchange a few words casually during work, nothing more."He could not shake off the feeling that Nash

    Nina pursed her lips. "Don't you know I've resigned?""Mr. York hasn't agreed to your resignation yet. There's no one to take over your position. You still need to come to work," Quincy said amiably. "Nina, you can leave the district court and come to the office now."Nina was utterly speechless. The marriage was not dissolved and she still had to work. This was something she had not considered thoroughly. If someone were to take over her job before she resigned from the company, there would not be any complaints. Nina asked again, "If there's someone new to take over my job, can I resign smoothly?""In theory, yes.""Alright, I'll have HR select someone new."With that, Nina hung up the phone. Quincy breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had completed a daunting task. Nash listened attentively, knowing Nina did not have an obsession with divorce and she would not resign from the company. He could finally relax, waiting for Nina to return.Nina drove away from the district court.

    Nina's gaze remained on the documents as she calmly said, "I'm still in my position, and Mr. York also needs a new secretary. Naturally, I'll do my duty and choose a good one for you."Despite her words, Nash felt a slight annoyance. Was she trying to escape from him?"I wonder when Mr. York will have time?" Nina reiterated, "We agreed to get divorced when the three-year term expired. Mr. York would not go back on his word, would he?"Nash pursed his lips, remaining silent. Nina looked up at him again and said, "I hope Mr. York keeps his promise, for both your sake and mine...""Quincy, leave!" Suddenly, Nash's voice was sharp.This command startled Nina. Watching Quincy leave, she felt a sense of suffocation in the now-empty space with only her and Nash. Looking into his eyes, she sensed something was wrong.She could not figure out what she said wrong. Was not divorce better for them? He got the shares, she gained freedom, each getting what they wanted. What made him unhappy?

    The Stone family wasn’t just greedy. They were relentless, always pushing boundaries and expecting more.Karina sighed. “It’s not that I can’t stand up to them, but sometimes it feels unnecessary. There are things that just can’t be explained.”Wilfred didn’t press further. “Pack your things and come with me. I have to travel for a project negotiation that will help our hospital continue expanding.” He was determined to firmly establish himself in Birkham, not just for his professional ambitions but also because Nina was there. Wilfred wanted to protect her and mentor his students, ensuring they could safeguard Nina’s children in the future. “But didn’t we already promise a patient that we’d perform surgery?” Karina asked, a little hesitant. “I’ll arrange for someone else to handle it.” While Karina might have been the better choice for the surgery, Wilfred had other options, including pulling Caleb in at the last minute. “Alright,” Karina replied. Since Wilfred had

    Sera blocked Karina’s path, her expression cold and disdainful. “You think you can just use that money to brush me off? Do I look like someone who needs your measly cash?”She grabbed Karina’s arm tightly, her nails biting into her skin. “Let me make this clear. If you don’t do what I’ve asked, I’ll ruin you, Karina. Completely.”Karina’s fear was palpable, but the thought of endless torment and manipulation was even more terrifying. She met Sera’s fierce gaze with a calm, unyielding stare. “Do whatever you want. But let me remind you, the money you gave me? I’m willing to go down with you if it comes to that. My life might not be worth much, but you’ve worked so hard to get into Wilfred’s hospital. Are you really willing to throw that all away?”Sera faltered. She had worked incredibly hard to get where she was. Countless sleepless nights studying, memorizing every detail of her medical texts, and enduring the challenges of difficult patients had pushed her to the brink. She often

    Sera’s gaze was so sharp it felt like it could pierce through Karina. Karina hadn’t expected her momentary greed to create such a mess. If she couldn’t stay a doctor, she would have no source of income, and her life would spiral further out of control. “Please, don’t do this. Tell me what you want, and I’ll keep helping you. Maybe… I could spike his drink for you again, or set up another opportunity,” Karina said, grabbing Sera’s hand out of desperation. Sera clearly wasn’t short on money. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to give Karina such a large sum back then.All she wanted now was to secure her position at the hospital.Sera pulled her hand away, a mocking smile on her face. “Set up another opportunity? Do you think Wilfred would fall for it twice? Do you take him for an idiot, Dr. Norman?” Wilfred wasn’t an idiot, and ordinary drugs didn’t seem to affect him much.Karina felt utterly helpless. One wrong step had led to another, and now she had no idea how to

    “Starting today, you’ll officially resume your position as my assistant. I trust you’ll adapt quickly,” Wilfred said firmly. Karina’s eyes lit up with a hint of surprise. “Dr. Wilfred, really? I’ll do my best to fulfill the responsibilities of the assistant role.” Wilfred stood up and walked over to her, giving her a reassuring pat on the shoulder. “Familiarize yourself with the current work schedule and the relevant materials. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask me. I have confidence in you.” Karina hesitated, a trace of worry crossing her face. “But… I’m not sure this is a good idea.” Wilfred already had an assistant. If Karina agreed to take the position, wouldn’t that make her a target for trouble from his former assistant? And then there were all the people at the hospital who were infatuated with Wilfred. Lately, she had already been spending more time with him, drawing enough attention as it was. If she officially became his assistant, she’d surely

    Back home, the first thing Karina did was take a shower, cranking the water temperature to the highest setting as if that was the only way to wash away the grim memories of the night.She scrubbed her arms fiercely, the spots where those repulsive men had touched her. Even through her clothes, the thought made her feel sick. Again and again, she lathered herself with soap until her skin turned slightly red, but no matter how hard she tried, the discomfort in her heart lingered.After her shower, Karina changed into clean pajamas and sat on the edge of her bed, unable to sleep. Her gaze fell on her phone. She hesitated for a moment before sending a text to Wilfred.“Dr. Wilfred, I’m truly grateful for your help tonight. I’ll never forget it.”After sending the message, she set her phone down, hugged her knees, and curled up on the bed. Returning to the hospital had always been her dream, but now she worried whether she could truly meet expectations and not let Wilfred down.As she

    The men exchanged uneasy glances, hesitating for a moment before reluctantly mumbling, “Sorry,” to Karina. Wilfred watched their retreating figures with thinly veiled disgust. Turning to Karina, he asked gently, “Are you okay?” Karina shook her head lightly, brushing it off. “I’m fine, Dr. Wilfred. Thank you.” Wilfred let out a soft sigh. “Come with me. You shouldn’t be working here.” Karina nodded, following him out of the private room. Wilfred guided Karina through the bustling bar. The pounding music and chaotic chatter seemed distant and muted, fading into the background as they moved. They made their way to the parking lot, where Wilfred opened the car door, carefully helping Karina into the passenger seat before getting in himself and starting the engine. As Karina buckled her seatbelt, she turned to Wilfred with a look of curiosity. “Dr. Wilfred, didn’t you say you had things to handle at the hospital? How did you get here so quickly?” Wilfred kept his ey

    When Karina stepped into the room, one of the men, his gaze hazy from drink, chuckled and said, “Well, so this is the beauty they sent over?”Karina forced herself to stay calm and replied politely, “Good evening, gentlemen. Here’s the drinks you ordered.” She began placing the drinks on the table one by one, hoping to finish quickly. Before she could finish, another man grabbed her wrist and yanked her toward him. “Come, have a few drinks with us, sweetheart.”Karina’s heart raced as she pulled her hand away with force. “Sir, I’m just here to deliver your drinks. I don’t entertain guests.”The men burst into laughter. “What bar do you think you’re in? There’s no such thing as not entertaining here. Don’t play coy, sweetheart. Sit with us, and you’ll be rewarded handsomely.”Fear surged through Karina as she instinctively stepped back, trying to maintain some distance. “I’m really just here for work,” she said, her voice trembling. “Please respect me!”But the men, emboldened

    The woman leaned closer to Karina, lowering her voice. “You ruined my fun. The manager and I were having a great time, and you interrupted us. You need to make it up to me.”Karina’s frustration flared. “I didn’t mean to interrupt. The door wasn’t fully closed, and I was only there to talk about resigning.”But the woman wasn’t about to let it go. “I don’t care. You need to make it up to me. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee your night will go smoothly or that you’ll get to leave this job without issues.”Anger surged through Karina. “You’re being unreasonable! I didn’t do anything wrong!”The woman sneered. “In this bar, what I say goes. If you don’t cooperate, I have plenty of ways to make sure you can’t stay.”Karina knew arguing with her in this chaotic environment would only make things worse. But the idea of being bullied like this made her seethe. Taking a deep breath, she tried to stay calm. “What do you want me to do?”The woman’s eyes gleamed with triumph. “It’s simple. Ha

    A strikingly glamorous woman sat perched on the manager’s lap, the two locked in a tight embrace, passionately kissing. The scene was nothing short of intimate, their connection palpable.Karina stood awkwardly at the door, caught between stepping in and retreating. She coughed lightly, trying to get their attention.Hearing the sound, the manager gently pushed the woman aside and turned toward the door. His expression showed no embarrassment; instead, he appeared slightly annoyed. “Karina, why didn’t you knock before coming in?”Karina forced a smile, her discomfort evident. “The door wasn’t fully closed. I didn’t mean to interrupt. I’m here to talk about resigning.”The manager adjusted his clothes, gesturing for the woman to sit aside. He raised his brows slightly. “Resign? Why the sudden decision to quit?”Karina bit her lip nervously. “It’s for personal reasons. I really can’t continue working here.”The manager leaned back in his chair, crossing his arms over his chest. A f
