The two were at odds, each hesitant to speak further. Nash's eyes were bloodshot and cold. Provoked by Nina, Nash's emotions became unsettled, rendering him unable to maintain his composure and think rationally.Yet, his words oddly brought about an unexpected calmness in Nina. She gripped her hands tightly, sensing a bitter taste spreading in her chest.Divorce was what she wanted, but the way it was ending left her feeling empty. Perhaps she had not expected Nash to be so furious with her. Perhaps, with everything that had happened today, she was still unable to cope. Her emotions were in turmoil, unable to digest the friction between them.Nash's eyes were still fixed on her, seemingly waiting for her final answer. Nina remained silent for a long time before finally speaking, "Fine, let's meet at the district court."Aware of the inevitable outcome and that her conscience had gone to the dogs, Nash still clung to some hope. He coldly smirked and said, "Fine!"He turned and left
"No need," Nina said. "I'll drive myself. If you're busy, go ahead and attend to your matters. I'll come by another day to apologize.""Don't be so formal," Leonard replied. "This beating wasn't in vain. I believe in your abilities, and I'm sure they'll bring me greater benefits!"After treating his injuries, Leonard bid farewell to Nina and left early. Once he got into the car, he messaged Scott. "Do you know Nina is pregnant?"Scott was at home, looking disheveled and casually dressed. He glanced at the message, his hand hesitating for a moment. "I didn't know," he replied.Leonard was surprised. "Well, your path just got harder. Nina is carrying someone else's child. Looks like she's fallen for someone else. How do you plan to win her over?"Scott's expression changed several times before he finally responded with resignation. "If she's happy, then I'll offer my blessings... but only if she's genuinely happy.""But she's pregnant now, and judging by her current state, she does
She lifted the bowl and approached him with a spoon, ready to feed him. Seeing this, Scott just wanted to keep his distance. "It's okay, I'll drink it myself," he said."Take it slow, it might be a bit hot," Yasmine said, not insisting further, but watching attentively from the side.Scott took the spoon and took a couple of sips. "How is it?" Yasmine asked eagerly.Looking at her, Scott smiled politely. "It's not bad," he replied.Yasmine happily said, "You haven't tried my cooking yet. I'm really good at cooking. Everyone who's tried my food says it's delicious. I have a talent for cooking. Next time, I'll come to your place. I've asked your parents, and I know what you like to eat. How about I come over and cook for you?""No need!" Scott immediately refused. "I'm busy with work and rarely at home.""When you have time," Yasmine insisted.Seeing Yasmine so enthusiastic, Scott found a good way to refuse her. "Yasmine, you don't need to worry about me so much, and don't listen
Nina turned around to see Michelle storming towards her, furious. Without a word, Michelle slapped her. Fortunately, Nina reacted quickly, anticipating her move, and caught her hand. Michelle tried to resist, cursing, "You despicable woman! You set me up! While I wasn't paying attention, you cozied up to the powers that be. Not only did you receive donations, but you also managed to get your project noticed by the chief editor. Why? What right do you have to steal my spotlight?" At this point, if Michelle caused trouble for the orphanage, she would only be causing trouble for herself. The station would surely fire her if they found out. Moreover, she had people protecting her, so if she offended others, she would not get far in the future. Thus, she had no leverage against Nina.While Michelle was in a frenzy, Nina looked at her with a cold smile and shook off her hand. "You're allowed to scheme against me behind my back, but I can't defend myself? Besides, didn’t I help you s
Nina looked down and saw blood on her pants. Her face immediately paled, her stomach had been bothering her since yesterday, but she was too caught up in work to pay it much mind.Lacking experience, she ignored the discomfort, and now her stomach was hurting even worse. Instinctively, she clutched her abdomen, bending over in pain. Her face was pale and she was covered in cold sweat.Seeing her bleeding, Nash's expression changed drastically. He hurried over and grabbed her, saying, "Nina!"Nina was in so much pain that she almost fainted. This delayed reaction intensified the pain. She grabbed Nash's arm and said weakly, "The baby..."Without hesitation, Nash lifted her into his arms. "It'll be okay, I'll take you to the hospital!""Quincy, drive quickly!"Quincy was terrified, encountering such a situation for the first time. He quickly opened the car door for them. Nash placed Nina in the car, got in himself, and laid her head on his lap. Seeing her deathly pale face, he wa
Nash followed all the way to the operating room, watching as Nina was wheeled inside. He could only stand at the door, his anxiety mounting. He felt as if the weight of the world was pressing down on him. Suddenly, he remembered something and added, "Save her, and also save her child!"As Nina disappeared through the door, a sense of darkness enveloped Nash. He stood at the entrance to the operating room, panting heavily. Sweat dripped from his forehead, his chest heaving as he remained rooted in place for a long time. It felt like countless threads were pulling at his heart, making it hard for him to breathe. He felt a bit scared.Scared that Nina might be in danger.Scared that if Nina lost the child, she might resent him.In that moment, he truly felt it. Though he could not accept the child, he was even more afraid of losing Nina.Nash remained silent, not uttering another word throughout. He was sitting in a nearby chair, his head bowed, his face filled with worry. His palm
Upon seeing this, Miranda's pupils contracted slightly, revealing a mix of shock and anger. She directly threw her phone to the ground! Her assistant, witnessing the scene, asked, "What happened, Miranda? Why are you so angry?"The phone kept ringing, but Miranda's entire focus was on the news of Nina's pregnancy. Whose child was she carrying? Why was she pregnant? Didn't they agree they hadn't been intimate? Why would Nina be pregnant?Miranda clenched her fist tightly, her knuckles turning white. As the assistant approached, Miranda pushed her away, saying, "Don't touch me!"The assistant was startled by her reaction. Seeing it was Ruby, Miranda's face softened a bit, tears welling up in her eyes, appearing pitiful. She buried herself in the assistant's arms, crying."Why, after all I've done, is he still not satisfied? Has he forgotten my kindness to him?" Miranda sobbed.The assistant could not bear to blame her, seeing her so broken.---As Nina was wheeled out of
Nina woke up in the middle of the night. Feeling a weight on her hand, she opened her eyes and saw Nash sleeping soundly beside her, tightly holding her hand. His hair was disheveled, and his face showed signs of exhaustion, indicating he had not slept well. His usually clean-shaven face now had some stubble, which caught Nina off guard for a moment. Countless emotions surged within her.After a while, Quincy came over, holding various items in his hand. "Madam, you’re awake," he whispered softly. Nina nodded in acknowledgment. Quincy glanced at the sleeping Nash and continued, "Mr. York stayed by your side all night. I told him to get some rest, but he insisted on staying with you. He only fell asleep in the morning."Nina felt a lump in her throat and hoarsely asked, "The child..."Quincy replied, "The child is safe. It was a close call, but luckily the child is fine. Otherwise, it will be over between you and Mr. York. The moment you went into the operating room, Mr. York w
