The assistant's words startled the two inside. Nash looked over and saw Nina standing at the door, immediately letting go of Miranda.

Nina, feeling exposed, felt a bit lost, lowered her head, and started to leave.

Nash hurried to catch up as she walked away. "Nina!"

Nina walked quickly, unsure how to face Nash. But Nash caught up and grabbed her hand. Nina turned around, her eyes slightly red, staring blankly at Nash.

Nash reached out to wipe the tears from her eyes, but Nina turned her head away. "Go take care of Miranda, you don't need to worry about me."

"Why are you at the hospital?" Nash didn't respond to her words but asked, "Are you feeling unwell? Or is the rash getting worse?" He rolled up her sleeve, wanting to see her arm. This only saddened Nina more, and she pulled her hand back, refusing to let him see.

"I'm fine." Nina looked towards the ward. "The important matter you mentioned yesterday was about Miranda, right?" To him, Miranda came first. If she had any prob

    How could he say such words?Stricken by his statement, Miranda stopped crying and stared blankly at Nash, utterly astonished. This was not the person she knew. Previously, he had cherished her the most, never allowing her to suffer any grievances. But now he was different, showing no pity, not even knowing how to comfort her anymore. She couldn't believe this was Nash. There must be a reason behind his actions.Miranda let go of his hand, trying to force a smile but failing miserably. "Be even? How could you possibly make things even between us?" Nash replied, "By curing your ears." "I don't want that! I might as well be dead!" Miranda became more agitated, grabbing a nearby fruit knife, intending to cut her wrists.Seeing this, her assistant quickly intervened, holding her back. "Please don't do this, Miranda..." Miranda, with red eyes, exclaimed, "Nash, everything I've done is for you. I love you so much, I'd even sacrifice my life for you. You owe me, and that debt can

    After graduation, Nina became busy with work and had her own family. Her parents hesitated to bother her and rarely called. Likewise, she neglected them in her busy schedule. Returning home, it was Zion Walker who opened the door for her, holding a newspaper in his hand and wearing reading glasses. His typically stern face lit up with a smile at the sight of Nina. "Nina, you’re back. Come in quickly."Nina stepped inside, and Zion handed her a pair of slippers. "Your mom knows you're back and she's making your favorite dishes. You're in for a treat today.""Great, I'm craving mom's BBQ ribs," Nina said, linking her arm with Zion's. "And I also want to eat the wild fish dad caught.""You're such a glutton," Zion chuckled.Nina took off her coat, rolled up her sleeves, and said, "I'll go help mom in the kitchen...""Oh no, you don't have to," Zion tried to stop her.But before he could say more, Nina saw that the kitchen wasn't just occupied by Julia, but also by a tall figure.

    Julia urged them to have some alone time together. She pushed Nina into the kitchen. At this moment, Nash didn't stop his hands, making sure all the ingredients were thoroughly cleaned. In her memory, Nash wasn't someone who would do these things."Why did you come?" Nash said, "You didn't answer my calls, so naturally, I had to come and ask Mom where you went."Nina washed the vegetables together with him. "I remember you never used to do these things."Nash turned his head with a hint of teasing. "I’m trying to please my mother-in-law.""Stop it.""Why didn't you answer my calls?" Nash asked again.Nina paused. "I was afraid of disturbing you and Miranda."Nash laughed. Nina asked, "What are you laughing at?""Jealous?" Nina denied, "No, it's not the first or second time. If I get jealous every time, I'd be upset all the time."Nash didn't say anything. He just noticed some water splashed on her face. Nina was about to wipe it with her sleeve, but Nash stopped her ha

    Scott was surprised and asked, "Mr. York is here too?" Their gazes all turned to Nash. For a moment, they didn't know how to respond to the question. Nina immediately said, "Mr. York is visiting our home today, Scott, please have a seat too." Julia followed, "Scott, I'm cooking, so you're eating with us. Don't even think about leaving." "Okay, thank you, Mrs. Walker," Scott politely replied. Luckily, the sofa was spacious enough for all of them, and Scott sat diagonally across from Nash. Zion and Scott were chatting about their past. It was only then that Nina learned that when they were in school, Scott lived nearby, and he was quite familiar with her parents. How did she not know about this strange connection? Upon hearing this, Nash's face immediately turned cold, showing his displeasure. Sitting here, listening to them talk about the past, he felt like an outsider. At the dining table, Scott showed extra concern for Nina, pouring her a glass of milk. "Here you go.

    His words were firm, carrying his possessiveness.How could he not see that this guy named Scott liked Nina? He always appeared in front of her.Then he should let Scott know that he had no chance.Scott looked directly at Nash, and their gazes became heavy in the air. After a stalemate for a while, Scott spoke, "Mr. York, you're speaking too soon."He remained composed, not angry, taking a sip of water before saying meaningfully, "Nobody can predict the future. When fate arrives, nothing can stop it."Listening to this, Nash was displeased, but he instinctively held Nina's hand.Nina also sensed his mood. Since Scott arrived, he had been acting strange, seemingly targeting him at every turn. However, Nina was rational and didn't act impulsively. She withdrew her hand and eased the tension, "What are you all talking about? It was fine before, but now it's all about me. Mom, help Dad go rest. He's had too much to drink and might start saying nonsense again.""Alright." Julia al

    Over time, without needing to say much, Scott came to understand her. Maintaining his gentlemanly demeanor, he didn't offer too much explanation: "It's nothing, just go ahead and eat."Yet, there was a twinge of shame in Nina's heart. To her, Scott was merely an old classmate, hardly even a friend, yet he was so attentive to her needs. Picking up her fork, she tried to eat the meat in her bowl. However, she couldn't shake off a nauseating smell, which killed her appetite."What's wrong? Can't eat anymore?" Scott asked.Setting down her fork, Nina didn't want to admit she had lost her appetite. Instead, she replied, "I have a small stomach, and I'm already full."Nash stood up. "Since everyone's eaten their fill, let’s stop here."Nina could sense his displeasure in Nash’s words, so she glanced at him, only to find his cold indifference. Meanwhile, Julia was attending to Zion. With no other choice, Nina had to see Scott off.Seeing Nina's pale complexion, Scott advised, "If you're

    She leaned against the wall, feeling extremely uncomfortable, her face deathly pale as she continued to retch, but nothing came out.Seeing this, Nash nervously approached and supported her. "What's wrong? Where does it hurt?"Nina pushed his hand away, tears welling in her eyes. "You just brought up divorce, and now you're asking what's wrong?"Seeing her pale complexion, Nash softened his tone. "Let's go home first. We won't talk about this now."He held her waist and led her outside. Nina didn't refuse; she didn't want to argue with Nash at the doorstep, fearing her parents would see and worry about her. Her marriage might not be happy, but she didn't want her parents to be overly concerned.Arriving at the car, Nash looked at Nina's sickly appearance, sighed, and pulled her into his embrace again. "Nina, what should I do with you?"Nina leaned against his shoulder, her nose tingling. She wasn't sure when she had become so fragile. Perhaps because she found some solace in Nash

    "You're just in time. I've made some red raspberry leaf herbal tea for you too," Sally instructed the helper. "Hurry up and bring the tea for Nina."Nina found it somewhat peculiar. With her mind solely focused on Miranda, why would she prepare tea for her?However, Sally's gaze was fixed on Nina's stomach. "This tea has been used for centuries to support reproductive health in women. They say once you drink it, you might conceive."As the helper brought the tea over, Nina took a sniff and immediately felt nauseated again. Her entire body was repulsed, prompting her to push it away. "Take it away. I can't drink it."Seeing her refusal, Sally's expression soured. "Nina, what's wrong with you? This tea was specially prepared for you. Since your stomach's not cooperating; you need to drink to regulate it. Hurry up and drink it for me."The helper presented the tea to Nina again.The nauseating smell was unbearable for Nina. "I can't..." She rushed to the bathroom."Nina, you..." Sa

    Ben did not reply and left without looking back. True to his word, he wasn’t going to see Jamie or Winnie. Instead, he arranged to meet Nash and the others at the most exclusive club in the city. However, when Ben arrived, Nash was busy on a call, Quincy was glued to his phone, and Hunter and Caleb were drinking quietly. Ben, already agitated, couldn’t hide his irritation. “You two, it’s rare we get together, and this is how you spend your time? Do you ever get tired of it?”He took a sip of his own drink, frustration bubbling as thoughts of Jamie occupied his mind. Quincy, sprawled casually on the couch, grinned. “Tired? Never. You don’t know what you’re missing. It’s pure bliss.” “I used to think love and relationships were just a burden,” Quincy continued, his expression turning soft. “But now I’ve realized, there’s nothing better in this world.” Since reconnecting with Lydia, Quincy’s perspective on life had shifted entirely. Traveling the world hand-in-hand with

    Ben’s lips pressed into a thin line. He didn’t know how to describe what he was feeling at that moment. The Jamie he knew was someone who could easily abandon their relationship for money. He had even done a paternity test on Jamie’s child, confirming there was no biological connection between them. Now, she had gone to such lengths for him. Was this her conscience finally surfacing? Ben didn’t want to dwell on it. “Your grandmother is innocent. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of her situation,” he said. “Thank you.” Caden lowered his head in gratitude. Ben nodded slightly and walked past him without another word. ……After leaving, Ben returned home to find Mrs. Lucas waiting for him, ready to perform a series of superstitious gestures to "clear away bad energy." He went along with her routine without protest. Once she was finished, he got into his car. “Who did you reach out to that managed to get me released so quickly?” Ben asked, recalling Caden’s earlier

    It was a battle between good and evil.“Charlie is already sick, and your sister never thinks about you. So why should you care about her? Besides, people who don’t look out for themselves are doomed to fail!”Evil began to chip away at her reason.Justice pushed back. “No, he’s just a child.”But evil whispered again. “Winnie, if you don’t take steps to protect yourself, do you want to see your own child disappear?”Winnie couldn’t bear the thought of losing her child. Over the years, she had worked hard and sacrificed so much, yet Jamie had never acknowledged her efforts. Instead, Jamie had gotten entangled with Ben, even on the day of her engagement party. Ben was her fiancé, and her child was Ben’s child! Yes, only her child had the right to call Ben “Daddy.” This thought filled Winnie’s eyes with an icy determination.……Meanwhile, with the recording as evidence, the prosecutor’s office and the police launched an investigation into Caden’s actions. The invest

    Mrs. Lucas showed no sympathy as she watched Jamie break down in tears. Her only concern was securing the recording to help clear Ben’s name.But Jamie’s emotional state made Mrs. Lucas suspicious. “Why does everything line up so perfectly?” she questioned.Jamie raised her hand as if swearing an oath. “I ran into Caden while working a part-time job, and the recording was pure luck. Mrs. Lucas, I’d never joke about my own son’s safety.”Jamie’s firm tone, coupled with her tear-streaked face, carried an air of desperation. As a woman and a mother herself, Mrs. Lucas could read Jamie’s emotions clearly. But deep inside, a new thought began to form. If Jamie’s child were gone, it would break Jamie completely. If she were to lose her mind or even die from the grief, how could Ben possibly continue to hold on to any lingering feelings for her?Mrs. Lucas’s resolve hardened as an idea took root.“Give me the recording,” she said, her tone steady. “I’ll make sure something is done t

    “You don’t need to give me anything. Just don’t hurt my family. That’s my only request,” Caden said firmly.The masked man let out a low chuckle. “Someone who doesn’t love money or power? How rare.”Caden’s expression remained impassive. “Just promise me this, and from now on, don’t come looking for me. I won’t help you with anything again.”The masked man clearly had no intention of letting Caden off so easily.In the next moment, he slid a list across the table. “Get these people released for me, or I’ll expose how you framed a top lawyer. What do you think? Will the public forgive you? Will the government?”Jamie, recording everything from the side, was satisfied with what she had captured. She turned to leave quietly, but before she could slip out, Caden spotted her.“Jamie? What are you doing here?”The masked man’s gaze turned icy.Jamie reacted quickly and bolted for the door, running as fast as she could.She didn’t know how she had ended up in the middle of Caden’s de

    After speaking, Winnie ran off. Jamie didn’t chase her. She understood that Winnie couldn’t accept this, and if their roles were reversed, neither could she. Right now, she had to find Mrs. Lucas. She flagged down a taxi and directed it to the Lucas family estate. It was her second time coming here. The first time had been by Mrs. Lucas’s invitation, a meeting designed to show her the opulence of the Lucas family estate and to offer her a million to leave Ben. Jamie had sworn then that she would never set foot there again. But today, she was here for Winnie. At the gate, the security guard stopped her. “Who are you?” “My name is Jamie Lewis,” she said calmly. “Tell Mrs. Lucas I’m here to see her. She’ll agree to meet me.” Jamie hadn’t chased after Winnie because she wanted to give her some time to process everything. But she couldn’t leave Winnie alone for too long. Time was of the essence. Seeing her composure, the security guard decided to pass along

    Although the van slowed down, Winnie was suddenly shoved out, hitting the ground hard. The physical pain was intense, but it couldn’t compare to the ache in her heart.She watched as the van sped away into the distance. Trembling, she pulled out her phone and called Jamie.“Jamie, what are you doing right now? I need to ask you something in person.” Winnie’s tone made it clear that she knew something was wrong.Hearing her voice, Jamie immediately sensed the weight of the situation. Winnie must have found out the truth. There was no way Jamie could focus on work until they cleared the air.Without hesitation, Jamie dropped what she was doing and rushed to meet her.When she arrived, she found Winnie sitting on the curb, her face blank and her eyes hollow.Jamie ran over quickly. “Winnie, what happened?”At the sound of her voice, Winnie lifted her head. A bitter smile played at the corners of her mouth. “Don’t you know what happened, my dear sister?”She deliberately emphasized

    Winnie didn’t know how to describe what she was feeling in that moment. Jack Green, the man who had seemed so perfect, had come into her life like a savior from above. And now she was being told that everything had been a lie. Ben Lucas. What a joke. What was his goal? She didn’t have a prestigious family background, no notable social status, no impressive career, not even money. As she sat in stunned silence, a police officer asked, “Did he trick you into donating organs? Or did you give him access to your bank accounts?” Fraud and illegal schemes were rampant these days. Winnie shook her head. “Neither. He sent me money through an app. I’m pregnant and I don’t have anything he could scam me for.” That only deepened the mystery. He hadn’t stolen anything from her. He just used a fake name. As the investigation continued, the police eventually revealed the truth to Winnie. “Ben Lucas is a top lawyer in Birkham. It sounds like you’ve been treated as part of som

    Winnie reacted strongly, refusing to believe any of it. “We’ve known each other for so long. He’s always been so good to me, and he’s incredibly dedicated to his work. He’s an exceptional lawyer. How could he possibly do something like this? You have to investigate thoroughly and clear his name,” she said, her voice trembling. The captain waited until she finished before asking, “Miss Lewis, just now you called him ‘Jack.’ Is that right?” “Yes, that’s his name, Jack Green. We’re engaged, and we’re getting married soon. Is there a problem with me calling him that?” Winnie responded, momentarily stunned. Her first thought was that the captain was being unnecessarily nosy. Was it wrong for an engaged couple to call each other by their first names?The captain shook his head. “This has nothing to do with your upcoming marriage, but the name you’re using doesn’t match the one on his ID. Were you aware of that?” “You’re joking, right? That’s not funny,” Winnie said, her face
