Chapter 329

Author: Faith Shaw
"I watched the behind-the-scenes footage, and she definitely did not use a stunt double. Her fight scenes were smooth and natural, so it's no wonder she's getting popular!"

"Have you seen it? Miranda is on fire. The stock market hit the ceiling today."

Nina overheard people in the office discussing. She grabbed a glass of water from the pantry. Coincidentally, Taylor was there too.

Seeing Nina, she said, "Nina, did you hear what they were saying? Mr. York invested heavily in Miranda. It's thanks to him that she's become this big. Miranda must have been Mr. York's savior in a past life!"

Taylor still could not understand how Miranda could become popular. And it was just one drama that made her popular. She had not watched the drama yet, but she had heard others rave about how good it was. She was not fond of Miranda so even if her drama was popular, she did not want to watch it.

Nina looked at Taylor and said with a smile, "Even if they praise her, it still depends on whether she

    The two of them arrived in the city area, and Nina first took Taylor to do some shopping. The beverages in the pantry were mostly purchased from this store. It was done in no time. However, Nina's task was a bit more complicated. The coffee beans she bought for Nash required a phone call appointment, but fortunately, she managed to secure it."Is there such a fuss about the coffee beans you buy for Mr. York? You even need an appointment," Taylor asked, puzzled by the scarcity of these coffee beans."Mr. York is quite particular," replied Nina. "He only drinks this particular kind of coffee beans."Taylor could only sigh, marveling at the world of the wealthy, where even coffee beans were top-notch.Nina had already made an appointment with the shop manager. When she went in, she asked, "Manager, is it all prepared for me? Same as before?"The manager seemed somewhat hesitant. "Miss Nina, there's only this one bag left, and maybe..."He hesitated to continue, seemingly having di

    "You better stop!" Eve interrupted her, "There's no Nash here, and no Grandpa either. You don't need to pretend in front of me. Show your true colors, you bad woman!"Her words caught Nina off guard. How did she become a bad woman? They had no conflict between them, right? Yet, she was labeled as such by her.Not wanting to cause trouble, Nina looked at Eve, who was several years younger and the granddaughter of Grandpa George. She grew up without her parents. Nina decided to compromise. "Since you both like it, you can have it. It's not a big deal."But Taylor was not willing to let it go. She wanted to stand up for Nina.Nina, however, said, "Taylor, let's go."Taylor asked, "What about Mr. York's coffee beans? They're gone now. If he can't have his coffee, he'll blame you.""It's okay."Seeing her trying to act good, Eve snorted, "Don't pretend to be nice. Even if you yield, I won't thank you. You got me scolded by Grandpa and embarrassed me. I haven't settled the score with

    Upon hearing the noise, Nina instinctively slammed on the brakes. Her gaze shifted towards the alley, where she saw a few rough-looking men gathered together. These guys seemed shady, and when Nina caught a glimpse of the girl's clothing, it struck a chord. Wasn't that Eve? She stared for a moment longer, noticing the panic and fear on Eve's face. Clearly, she was in distress and did not know what to do in such a situation. Eve's complexion was grim."Don't come any closer! If you lay a finger on me, my grandfather won't let you get away with it!" Eve had grown up sheltered and privileged, never encountering such a situation before, let alone being bullied. She had intended to go out for dinner with Stella, but since Stella had something to attend to and was on the phone, Eve wandered around nearby. A few steps later, she found herself lost and ended up in this sketchy area.Initially, she had wanted to find Stella, but as she turned a corner, she stumbled upon several men acting

    She did not react immediately. That wasn’t right."Two hundred bucks," the person holding the money was still greedy, not willing to give in. "She should have more than that.""This is all the cash we have," Nina replied. "If you want more, there's nothing left. Let her go, don't end up causing trouble for yourselves.""Are you trying to intimidate us?" They scoffed. "We're not easily scared. Just by selling a few of you, we could make more than a measly two hundred bucks."This cash is just a drop in the bucket, it should be at least twenty grand.""Twenty grand? Who carries that amount in cash? That's not realistic. How about this, you let her go, and I'll get the money for you," Nina replied."Are you trying to fool us like kids? If we let her go, won't you all just run away?"Considering your good looks, you could fetch tens of thousands if we sell you. If you want to redeem yourselves, you have to pay the price!"Seeing they were being unreasonable, greedy beyond measure,

    Taylor and Eve were terrified, screaming loudly. Thankfully, her car was sturdy enough and did not get smashed through."Stop her, don't let her get away!" The men surrounded Nina's car, trapping her inside, preventing her from leaving."You've hurt a few of our brothers and now you want to run? If you dare ram into us, I'd like to see where you'll go!"Get out of the car!"These guys were furious, getting a bit crazy. Seeing them hiding in the car, they started smashing it.Eve's face turned pale with fear, tears streaming down her face. Taylor, seeing how skinny these men were but how strong they seemed, was getting worried. She asked, "What do we do, Nina? What should we do?"Glancing at the time, Nina reassured them, "Don't be afraid, we'll be fine.""Driving such a nice car, you must be wealthy. Giving us two hundred bucks to brush us off, treating us like beggars, do you think we're beneath you?"They kicked and smashed the car."Get out of the car!"They wanted them ou

    Eve took the bottle and had a sip, but the fear made her choke on the water. "Take it slow," Nina advised. Eve tightened the cap, hesitated for a moment, then looked at Nina and decided to speak up, "Thanks for earlier. If it weren't for you, I probably would've been in trouble." Nina joked, "I usually see you as pretty tough, but you seemed pretty scared just now." Eve pursed her lips and looked down again. "I know I've embarrassed you twice. It's normal for you to make fun of me." "Alright, get in the car. I'll take you home. If you're late, your grandpa will worry about you." Saving her was for the sake of Eve’s grandfather.He only had her, and if she had not helped Eve, he would surely be upset. She could not be indifferent to that extent. Suddenly, Eve remembered something. "My phone and bag are with Stella. I wonder where she went!" Hearing this, Nina hesitated and asked, "Weren't you with Stella just now? How come you're suddenly alone?" Eve explained, "Stella

    He bombarded her with questions, leaving Nina unsure which one to answer. "I just got a minor injury, nothing serious," she mentioned, spotting Taylor and the other onlookers. Despite Nash disregarding the stares, Nina felt a tad worried and quickly stepped out of his embrace."Why didn't you pick up the phone?" Nash frowned, still concerned, and pressed on, "What happened?"His gaze shifted to Eve, realizing she was present.Eve felt quite embarrassed, calling out, "Nash..."She hesitated, "Nina saved me. I already feel guilty, I hope you won't blame me."She never imagined Nina would step in to save her.Encountering those people was so dangerous, and she had offended Nina before. She assumed even if a stranger had intervened, Nina would have just given her a cold look.Nina's rescue left her overwhelmed with guilt. She deeply regretted her past actions.Nina was not as unapproachable as some made her out to be, nor was she a bad person.Eve was also feeling frustrated, hopi

    "You knew it was dangerous, so why did you still step in?" "I..." Nina began to respond, but Nash interrupted her and continued, "What if help hadn't arrived in time?"Nina had not thought about this question. She believed she could handle the situation at the time and she did not want to worry Nash. She casually replied, "I timed it right, there wouldn't have been a problem.""Nina, have you never been seriously injured before?" Nash's expression was grave, his brows furrowed tightly. Each of her defenses felt like a stab to his heart.If something happened to her, it would be too late.Nina paused, not sure how to answer him, and sincerely contemplated his words.Her life had been quite comfortable from childhood to adulthood.Except for that one kidnapping incident.But she had not been injured during that time, and Nash had already endured the worst of it."I probably haven't had any serious injuries, but I've had my fair share of bumps and bruises," Nina said."What if

    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. Even the wine cellar remained untouched, stocked with years-

    “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.
