Then she phoned Yvonne. Yvonne's voice sounded sleepy, and Nina felt apologetic. "I'm sorry if I disturbed your rest. But I'm on my way to the mall now, near your place. I'll find a spot and wait for you there."

"Okay," Yvonne didn't decline.

Upon reaching the mall, Nina located a popular boba tea shop and ordered two drinks. When Yvonne arrived, she spotted Nina from a distance, seated at a small cream-colored round table, cradling a cup of milk tea.

"Why did you decide to call me out today, and to such a trendy spot? What's your motive?" Yvonne teased Nina with a sidelong glance. Despite her playful tone, she pulled out a chair and seated herself opposite Nina.

Nina smiled, "No particular reason, just wanted you to join me for a stroll, and then... Nash told me that Quincy has already settled the matters with the exhibition center."

Yvonne's mood had been fine, joking around with Nina, but the mention of Nash reminded her of the veiled threats in his words and Nina’s leniency to

    This was her rival, Mia Lloyd. Whenever she held an art exhibition, Mia would quickly follow suit. If she released a design, Mia would too. Whatever she did, Mia would imitate. Some salespeople just gravitated towards those who seemed more influential. How could Nina allow someone to take clothes out of Yvonne’s hands that she had picked for her?Nina immediately pulled out the black card Nash had given her from her purse. "Charge it, I'm buying this dress." Holding Yvonne’s hand, Nina came out of the fitting room. Clearly, there was no need to try it on. The intention was to outclass Mia in every respect.When Mia and the salesperson saw the black card, their eyes widened, especially Mia, who was infuriated. "You, just a mere secretary, dare to flaunt your boss’s black card here?" She was the top VIP here! As for Yvonne, while talented, she could not compete with Mia in terms of wealth and influence. And Nina was just a secretary! “Watch your mouth!” Yvonne could not hold

    "Stop arguing! Whether someone got hit or is a mistress, it has nothing to do with us! We should mind our own business!""A mistress flaunting a black card? That's hilarious. I wondered how she became the CEO's secretary at such a young age; turns out it's all thanks to her 'bedroom skills'!""Nina is quite something. Last time at the banquet, Mr. York was furious defending her, and you guys don’t know, she even pushed out Mr. York’s first love!""Really? If Nina is so capable, why didn’t Mr. York marry her?""Is it that easy to become the wife in a wealthy family?"...As the online discussion unfolded, blame shifted towards Nina, with some going as far as creating a photoshopped black and white obituary photo of her, depicting her in a derogatory light.Meanwhile, Miranda seemed especially satisfied with the turn of events. During this period, she orchestrated a scene, deliberately unwrapping the package of health supplements Nina had sent her. These were collagen supplements

    Seeing this, Sally could not remain calm; her anger skyrocketed. She immediately signaled to her bodyguard, "Follow Nash and Nina."With Nina detained, Nash could not simply ignore the situation. Indeed, Nash had already rushed to the police station.Nina, Yvonne, and Mia were held in the same interrogation room. Mia had people to bail her out, so she could leave the police station as soon as someone arrived for her. She had deliberately requested to be in the same room as Nina and Yvonne. Because only then, when she was bailed out, could she dampen their spirits.Unexpectedly, the first to arrive to bail someone out from Nina's side was none other than Nash, the CEO of York Corporation!Nash was dressed in a smoke-gray shirt and black trousers, standing tall at 188 centimeters, his presence commanding and solitary. However, his piercing gaze was not to be overlooked.The moment Nash appeared, it spoke volumes. Regardless of whether Nina was his mistress, at that moment, it was cl

    Mia could not refuse. "Okay," she reluctantly agreed.Nina then added, "Just saying it isn't enough. You need to write an agreement promising not to oppose Yvonne.""Okay." Mia, realizing she had no choice but to comply to avoid accountability from Nash, reluctantly agreed.In less than three minutes, Mia had drafted the agreement and even stamped it with her fingerprint for authenticity.However, when she handed it to Nina for approval, Nina pointed out, “Your promise is to Yvonne.”Reluctantly, Mia passed the agreement to Yvonne. Yvonne quickly glanced over it, surprised at how quickly Mia had written it.Unexpectedly, Nash added, "Quincy, take action. For openly inciting public opinion, detain her for a few days!""Yes." Quincy quickly complied.Mia was stunned. She was a fashion designer, a somewhat famous painter, and even the daughter of the wealthy Llyod family. Being detained for a few days would make her the laughingstock of her social circle.“Mr. York… Nina, Miss Ni

    Sally's expression darkened considerably. It wasn't just that Nash wasn't seeing anyone; he was clearly avoiding her!Disregarding any formalities, Sally insisted on going inside, but she had barely taken a few steps when several security guards appeared before her.The lead guard spoke in an official tone, “Ma’am, please don’t make things difficult for us. If you want to see Mr. York, you can try calling him or go back home.“Think about it, if people see this and it gets out on the internet, that would not be good!” he added, reminding Sally.Sally's chest heaved with visible anger, her fury growing.They were deliberately blocking her, and now how could he possibly answer her call?At the end of the day, it was all for Nina, to keep her from troubling Nina!How wonderful!Nash could go to such lengths for Nina!With a huff, Sally left.Inside the CEO’s office, Nash had buried himself in his office dealing with paperwork since bringing Nina back. Nina, not wanting to idle a

    With her head lowered, Nina responded, "No, it was just a casual remark, don't take it to heart. I know the agreement between us, and as you know, my heart belongs to someone else."She knew that saying this would undoubtedly anger Nash, but she felt she had no choice. She had that little bit of pride and did not want Nash to think she was jealous.Following her words, the smile on his face quickly disappeared, and he darkened his expression, "In the office, you are my secretary. When I ask you to do something, you just need to nod and agree."The implication was clear which was to cut the unnecessary talk.Nina nodded, "Yes." Then, she stepped towards Nash.Her touch was gentle, and importantly, the faint fragrance from Nina made Nash feel very relaxed. Soon, he closed his eyes and relaxed completely.Meanwhile, Sally had arrived at the Walker residence.The last time they were at the hospital, Sally had physically attacked Nina, and Julia had developed a poor impression of her

    Before Nash could respond, Julia hung up the phone. The busy tone seemed to pound inside Nash's mind. Clutching the phone, his handsome face was instantly overshadowed by a veil of gloom, an aura of darkness enveloping him.Nina entered the room and beheld Nash in this state, his hand gripping her phone. Her heart skipped a beat. With hospital appointments now made through mobile apps, she feared Nash might have seen her registration and payment records.Especially when Nash’s piercing, cold black eyes landed on her, Nina’s palms turned cold, unsure how to face him. But suddenly, Nash coldly dropped a bombshell, “Nina, did you tell your mother about us planning to divorce?”Nina’s heart had been in her throat, but upon hearing Nash’s question, she let out a long sigh of relief. She pressed her lips together, “Talking to my parents about what’s going on in my life, isn’t that normal?”Though she had not expected Nash to pick up her phone call, she had already informed him long ago a

    Serene's words had no effect on Nash and he did not care to hear her excuses. He had only one point and he voiced it out, “You can't replace Nina, and don't even think about such fantasies!”“Thank you for your guidance, Mr. York. I’ll call the restaurant right away to have the meal redelivered.” Serene still did not dare to look up at Nash.Nash coldly spoke, “No need!” With that, Nash got up and left Serene behind in the office.Even after Nash had left, Serene was still shaken. Nash seemed to think she was scheming to take Nina's place, but Nina had recruited her to fill in her position.Given Nash's attitude, it seemed he might fire her at any moment.She was employed at York Corporation, and if Nash fired her, how would other companies view her resume? Would anyone want to hire her?Moreover, she was dealing with Nash York, the top business tycoon in the capital, the head of the York family!With these thoughts, a resolute flicker crossed Serene's eyes. She must find a way

    Unfortunately, Ben couldn’t see through any of this. Summer, however, wasn’t the least bit intimidated. Shaking her head confidently, she said, “I’ve never done anything to upset him. I don’t believe that just exchanging a few words with him would make him kick me out.”Mrs. Lucas opened her mouth, about to say something, but seeing Summer’s confident demeanor, she hesitated. Maybe, just maybe, Ben might actually feel too awkward to reject her outright. And if a little covert manipulation were added into the mix…Suddenly, Mrs. Lucas had an idea. Hearing it, Summer’s eyes lit up with excitement. “Mrs. Lucas, that’s an excellent plan! We should act quickly before he does anything else irrational.” “Alright.” Though the plan was solid, the two of them decided to put it into action three days later. Meanwhile, Ben hadn’t been to the office lately, but he was still keeping track of all the firm’s cases. He was also trying to reach Winnie, but while her phone would ring,

    Ben wanted nothing more than to wring Jamie's neck after hearing her cold, cutting words. “I don’t need your lectures,” he growled. Human nature? Didn’t she think he knew enough about it already? He had seen it in every case he handled, and he had learned it the hardest way through her betrayal. When he fell for Jamie, it had been with the intent to marry her, to share a future. But she had stabbed him in the back without hesitation. And yet, when he tried to hate her, tried to wish for her downfall, he couldn’t bring himself to follow through. “Stay here and reflect on your actions, Jamie.” Ben knew her well enough. If she cried, begged for forgiveness, he would soften. But she didn’t. Instead, all she cared about was that child, the child he refused to acknowledge. “Fine,” he thought grimly. “Let’s see how long that bastard can survive.”*Meanwhile, Ben’s mother, Mrs. Lucas, had failed to convince him to cut ties with Jamie. This left her in a tough spot, especial

    Ben would never believe the truth, and his mother would never allow Charlie’s existence. Instead of creating chaos and an irreparable fallout, Jamie chose to keep it hidden. She thought that once Ben’s anger subsided, he would eventually let her go.“Even if you figure out who the father is, what difference does it make?” Jamie met Ben’s intense gaze calmly. “We’ve already said everything that needed to be said. Can’t we stop making each other’s lives miserable?”"Your mother offered so much money. Why wouldn’t I take it? I’m not a fool. I gave you up for one million before. After these past four years, do you really think there’s any love left between us? Do you honestly expect me to cry and beg for you?”Jamie’s voice was steady as she stared calmly at Ben. She had been scared at first, but over time, she had come to terms with her reality. Ben wasn’t going to kill her. And as long as she stayed alive, there would eventually come a day when he’d let her go. Right now, his anger wa

    The next second, there was only silence on the phone.Ben sent the phone number to his assistant. “Investigate thoroughly.”A thought suddenly struck him. He couldn't let Jamie continue to roam freely outside.*Four days later, Ben's mother came to visit. “You refuse to take over the family business, and now you're going against me by keeping Jamie around again?”Ben didn’t respond, but her anger only grew. “Ben, you’ve seen for yourself what kind of person Jamie is. Why are you still so obsessed with her? The fiancée I arranged for you is far better than the one you’ve chosen!”The Larson family was also one of the prominent families in Birkham. While the Lucas and Larson families couldn’t rival the York family, the Lucas family still held its position as the second most influential family in the city. On top of that, they were relatives of the Scott Lucas. Even Scott, who had initially resisted marriage, eventually followed his parents’ wishes and entered into a family

    Jamie closed her eyes briefly, sinking further into despair. She didn’t even notice when Ben had left the room. Her thoughts were scattered, her mind drifting in and out of focus.Though she wanted to leave the hospital, she was constantly watched, making it impossible. By afternoon, a nurse came in to change her dressing.Jamie glanced up absentmindedly. “It’s fine. I don’t need it.”“This is under Dr. Lawson’s direct orders,” the nurse replied gently but firmly. “I can’t afford to cut corners. Since you’re still admitted, please cooperate.”Jamie lifted her gaze slightly, her tone subdued. “I’d like to get some fresh air.”“Of course, once we’re done changing your dressing, I can take you outside. Just make sure not to strain your muscles,” the nurse said patiently.The weather was exceptionally pleasant that day. As she sat in the wheelchair outside, Jamie made several calls to Winnie. The phone was still off, as if Winnie had made up her mind to disappear completely from her

    “You're the patient, and I'm the doctor. Taking care of you is my job,” Jay said with a light smile, handing her the utensils. “Go ahead, try it.”Jamie was indeed hungry. She hadn’t felt like eating, but she couldn’t refuse his gesture. Besides, she needed to regain her strength quickly if she hoped to find Charlie. She picked up the utensils and was just about to take a bite when footsteps sounded outside the room. The door swung open, revealing Ben. His expression darkened instantly, his face stormy as he took in the scene before him. “So, Dr. Lawson, is this how you treat all your patients, or is this a special case?” Ben’s tone dripped with sarcasm. “Just giving an old classmate some extra care. What’s the harm in that?” Jay replied, his words laced with subtle defiance. The room's atmosphere froze, tension thick in the air. Ben’s sharp gaze flickered between Jamie and Jay before finally settling on Jamie’s pale face, his expression unreadable. Jamie, sensing th

    “Wake up, Charlie.” Winnie held him tightly, panic overwhelming her. She wanted to take him away, not harm him! Just then, the sound of a car pulling up broke through the darkness. Footsteps approached, slow and deliberate. A tall man emerged from the shadows and stopped in front of her. Tears streaming down her face, Winnie looked up. The man’s sharp, angular features were obscured by the dim light, adding to his air of mystery. But she immediately recognized him. It was the same man who had told her the truth about Jack Green being Ben Lucas. Winnie glared at him with fierce determination. “Why are you here? Are you happy now that things have come to this?” “You foolish woman, do you think being deceived feels any better?” the mysterious man sneered. “The truth is nothing but a bloody wound. I’d rather…” Winnie’s voice faltered, unable to continue. “Stop lying to yourself,” the man said with a slight shake of his head. “What do you want?” Winnie asked

    Jamie couldn’t help but suck in a sharp breath. “Stop pretending.” Ben's harsh words cut through the air, as cold and unrelenting as ever. Jamie couldn’t straighten up for a long moment. She gritted her teeth, determined to ignore the pain radiating from her wound, spreading like fire through her body. Sweat dripped from her forehead onto the pale hospital bed, leaving tiny dark stains. “I don’t need to play games with you,” she said finally, her voice frail but resolute. “It wouldn’t work, and I don’t want to. I just want my child back.” Ben’s sharp gaze faltered for a moment before he replied in a cold tone, “Focus on recovering first.” With that, he turned and left the room. Jamie slumped against the edge of the bed, exhausted and broken. *Meanwhile, Winnie drove aimlessly, following random road signs, unaware of where she was heading. The road grew increasingly desolate, with the sun sinking below the horizon and barely a soul in sight. “Where are we, Aunt

    Perhaps due to her injuries, Jamie couldn’t muster much strength, and her resistance felt as feeble as a kitten pawing at someone.Jay gently guided her back to the hospital bed. While examining her injuries, his expression turned serious. “All these years, I’ve attended every class reunion, but I’ve never seen you. Did you move abroad?” Jamie shook her head slightly. “Life’s been messy. Nothing worth mentioning.” “If there’s anything troubling you, tell me. Maybe this old classmate can help,” Jay said softly, his eyes full of concern. Though time had barely left its mark on her face, her eyes carried a deep weariness, dulling the radiance she once had. It was clear she had endured more than her fair share of hardships over the years. Jamie remained silent for a moment before shaking her head again. “I’m fine, Jay.” Instinctively, he asked, “So, did you become a lawyer?” The question hit her like a sharp sting. Her lips trembled for a second before she forced a weak
