"This makes sense. But Nina, with that face and figure, is truly stunning!"Nina was still unaware that she had caught someone's eye. Because of what Nash had said, she was doing her best here to help the newcomer, Serene. Serene was by her side, aware that Nina was not feeling well today, and even took the initiative to help block the alcohol. She had a strong tolerance and carried herself with grace and confidence. Since Nina did not drink, Serene could indeed share a lot of responsibilities with Nash on behalf of her. Serene was also able to address the issues raised by the collaborators one by one, and even earned praise from them. They were praising Nash. "Mr. York, where did you find such a gem?""Mr. Larson, have you ever heard of the saying 'A gem cannot be polished without friction, nor a man perfected without trials'?" Serene effortlessly countered with just one sentence. She likened herself to a stone, shaped by both Nina and Nash, while also flattering Mr. Larson.
Her wrist suddenly felt a force, pulling her backward. The next moment, she fell into a warm embrace. The subtle scent of alcohol and tobacco prompted Nina to take a deep breath."Sean Zimmer, I'm not dead yet."The stern words pounded down from above Nina's head. Sean, seeing Nash on the other side, was taken aback. So many people were gossiping about Nina behind her back and Nash even brought a newcomer along. But now, Nash was here defending Nina? Whatever the case, addressing the situation with Nash was the main point now!Sean locked eyes with Nash and flashed a strained smile. "Mr. York, even though we haven't worked together yet, I believe we have a promising future ahead."Nash stayed quiet, his lips forming a thin line. A chill seemed to emanate from his black eyes.Nina could tell that this was a sign of his growing anger.Nina cleared her throat, about to say something when Nash grabbed a nearby bottle of alcohol and viciously aimed it at Sean's head—"Ah!"The ago
"Why did you stop me just now?" Nash gritted his teeth.With raging anger burning within, he could not contain himself. He grabbed Nina and pulled her close before she could react, his large hand immediately restraining her.Nina's voice was hoarse as she replied, "The other party is, after all, the CEO of a company. As he said, there's a long road ahead for you two. Plus, there were many people around at the time. Your actions could lead to negative publicity...""So I'm just supposed to stand by while another man makes a move on my wife?" Nash cut her off with a cold smirk before Nina could finish her sentence. His smile did not reach his eyes, which were now filled with a chilling hostility.Ignoring him, Nina said, "Anyway, we're secretly married."They were in a secret marriage, bound by a three-year agreement to keep it concealed. Since Nash would not deliberately seek media attention, and if she did not disclose it, who would know she was Nash's former wife?Nash sneered,
As Nash shoved her, he also tapped the answer button. Nina was right next to him, so she could hear perfectly well."Nash, I'm so scared... Can you come? I feel like I've seen Linda again, ah—!" "Beep beep!" After Miranda's fearful scream, the phone emitted a busy tone. Nash put away his phone and then spoke to the driver ahead, "Take me to the hospital first, then drop Nina off at Riverview Estate." His tone brooked no objections. "Okay." The driver followed his instructions and changed the route. In less than forty minutes, the driver pulled up to the hospital entrance. Nash looked at Nina sitting beside him and said calmly, "I'll be back later. When I come back, I hope to see you!" It was not a plea, but a command. With that, he turned and walked away. The tall, aloof figure left a sharp sting in Nina's eyes, piercing her heart. But in an instant, she was already bloody and battered. He got jealous when he saw her with other men. But what about him? Even though Mirand
Nash furrowed his brows, striding towards her. "You're overthinking it. Linda brought this upon herself; it has nothing to do with you. Why do you want to make yourself miserable?"Miranda quietly pinched her palm, lowering her head, murmuring, "That's a real human life. I saw it, I can't just pretend I didn't see anything... Nash, life is so fragile!""Everything has its cause and effect. If you keep this up, I'll have to find you a psychologist." Nash stood not far from her with his 1.88-meter height looming over her. His gaze conveyed a coldness with a hint of detachment.Miranda became anxious with her voice breaking, "Nash, please, don't. Don't find a psychologist. If you do, what about the film I'm shooting? How could a film crew possibly accept someone who's crazy? I can't sing the way I used to anymore, I don't want to lose this one chance to be in the spotlight, I beg you..."Miranda half-knelt on the sickbed, reaching out to grab Nash's wrist.Her voice grew more choked
The next moment, Caleb was already on his feet. Approaching Nash, he extended his hand in a gesture to check Nash. Nash, with a look of disdain, dodged his hand. "Find a reliable psychologist for Miranda," he said. As soon as Caleb heard it was related to Miranda, his expression darkened."Bro, you've been married for three years already! Doing this, aren't you worried Nina might misunderstand?" Nash responded lightly, "Just lending a hand." He had always maintained a distance between himself and Miranda. Caleb did not believe it. He sneered, "In a marital relationship, it all starts with lending a hand. Once married, it's destiny. Cherish it!" Caleb patted Nash's shoulder.This time, he spoke a bit too much. Nash gave a faint "Hmm" in response, his expression aloof. Since he had come and spoken, Caleb could not refuse to help. While Caleb was making contacts, Nash kept his eyes on his phone screen. But not a single message popped up on his phone. Meanwhile, Nina had been
Nash did not let any of it bother him. A cold, mocking smile flickered across his lips. "Temporary kindness can't erase past grievances." With that remark, he did not even look back at her as he walked past her and headed upstairs. Sally's face turned livid with anger.If things continued this way, Nina would take over as the lady of the house.Nina not only had the favor of Nash's grandfather but also now had Nash's support.No, this could not be allowed to happen!Instantly, a determined gleam flashed in Sally's eyes.--Nina had already arrived at Yvonne's apartment. Yvonne could immediately see the look on Nina's face, distracted and troubled. "If you’re already divorced, then you need to ease your mind. It's just a temporary effect, you have to learn to let go. If you’re not divorced yet, then you need to think about how to end this marriage."Yvonne led Nina to the sofa and then opened the takeout box. She had not eaten much for dinner as there were some incidents at t
"Other than here, Nina has nowhere else to go," Nash's voice carried a firmness, even a hint of coldness.She sat up abruptly, only to realize that it was already dawn.Yvonne's mocking voice chimed in again, "Nash, don't you think what you just said is ridiculous?"This was not a dream. Nash had indeed arrived.She got out of bed and walked out of the room, only to find Nash and Yvonne standing face to face in the living room. Nash was wearing a smoke-gray shirt today. Yvonne, being only five foot four, stood half a head shorter than Nash."Nash, if you're here to fulfill what I want, then I'll go with you," Nina pursed her lips and spoke, stepping towards Nash one step at a time.Both Nash and Yvonne looked at her simultaneously.Nash noticed her pajamas, and the cartoon pattern made him frown. Nina had never worn this type of clothing before. Additionally, her long hair cascaded naturally down both sides of her shoulders, and with no makeup on her face, she emanated a lazy vi
