Nina suddenly realized, "So he knew all along." She had not said anything, but Scott understood it all too well.Yvonne looked at her and chuckled, "That's why not everyone can remain committed, Nina. Just be content." Nina fell into deep thought. What did she have to be discontented about? The two chatted for a while longer before Yvonne emerged. Scott was still standing at the doorway. Seeing Yvonne come out, he asked, "Is she feeling better?"Yvonne said, "Your mind is all on Nina. She's much better now. Don't worry, she's coming to terms with it. In her marriage with Nash, she had already envisioned the ending, though she still harbored dreams of growing old with him if luck was on her side. But dreams eventually must yield to reality."Scott fell silent, a trace of worry crossing his face. These years must have been tough on Nina too.Yvonne walked over, gripping the railing of the corridor. "I put in a good word for you."Taking a deep breath, she looked out the window.
"I'm not upset," Scott replied. "I know," she continued, "I’m referring to me. But Scott, I have to tell you, I'm not ready to accept another relationship.""What was I thinking?" Scott chuckled. "Don't underestimate me. I admit I'm selfish, but I want to help you more than anything. Despite our feelings, I still consider you my best friend.""What's so good about me?" Nina did not understand, making him worry for so many years.Scott paused for a moment, then simply said, "You're very kind."Nina smiled again. Scott stayed by her side until she fell asleep. As he watched her up close, he reached out to touch her face, noticing the furrow between her brows even in her sleep. He gently smoothed it away, then whispered in her ear, "Nina, I'll never ask you for anything, because everything I have now is thanks to you." With that, he tucked her in, hoping she would sleep well and be free from worries in this life.---Nina was awakened by the sound of her alarm clock. As she
Nina could not relax and was about to go find Zoe. Before she could, she saw Zoe walk in unharmed."Nina, look what I brought you. I noticed you've been feeling nauseous lately, so I brought some sour and appetizing pickles for you, and also this - your favorite soup.""Zoe."Nina's relieved heart sank back down, and she immediately ran over to hug her. Seeing her so excited, Zoe put down what she was holding."What's wrong? You're all grown up, yet you're acting so impatient!" Zoe teased.Nina let go and looked at her carefully. "Were you hurt? Did anyone throw stones at you?""What nonsense! How could I possibly get hurt? Don't forget what your aunt does. Who could dare to bully me!" Zoe rolled her eyes."Haven't you seen the news? Your beauty salon was vandalized. How could I not worry?" Nina was deeply concerned.Zoe sat down, crossed her legs, and took out a handful of nuts from her pocket, munching on them casually. "Let them vandalize. They'll have to pay for the damages
Worries would always find a way to surface. This not only affected Zoe but also the company. Nash watched the video briefly. The video captured from this angle was taken at the entrance. It could have been secretly filmed by someone with an agenda or by one of the people present at the scene. At that time, they were all present, making it unlikely for any of them to have filmed it, but he overlooked another possibility. This could work to their advantage."Find a way to suppress the hot search topics," Nash instructed. "Minimize the losses."As an outsider to the entertainment circle, Zoe was accustomed to her freedom, making it difficult for her to deal with the various rumors and controversies on the internet. The power of the internet remained formidable. He did not want anyone to influence her in any way."Understood, Mr. York."They would have to work overtime to suppress the trending topics. After sorting out the trivial matters of the entertainment company in a meeting,
"Is it true? Can we trust the news?" Upon hearing Michelle's words, they still asked for confirmation."It's true. I'm prepared to stay here all night. We've got the hospital surrounded from all sides. The moment Miranda appears, even if we only catch a glimpse of her, it's still a win!" Michelle assured them."Well then, we'll all stay here. I refuse to believe they won't come out!" They had been waiting here for a whole day, closely following any news about Miranda. They could not go wrong by staying here.However, Michelle's assistant asked, "Michelle, do we really have to wait here indefinitely?"Michelle was also pondering how they could see Miranda. Even if they only caught a shadow, it would be worth it. "We can't just sit around waiting to die."She looked at the nurses ahead and suddenly had an idea.Handing everything over to them, she said, "You guys stay here and keep watch. I'm going to take a look inside.""Michelle, the hospital is guarded. How do you plan to ge
"Who... who are you? I don't know you. Nash, who is she, who are they all?" Miranda looked at the assistant with a puzzled expression.Everyone was stunned for a moment.The assistant, confused, said, "Miranda, don't you remember me? I'm your assistant, Ruby."Miranda pushed her away abruptly. "Get away from me! Nash, what's happening? Why can't I hear you? Come here, I'm scared!"Zoe was also taken aback by her reaction. She joked, "Started with deafness, now it's memory loss. If this were a drama, it would be too tragic!"Nash walked over.Miranda grabbed his sleeve as if he were her lifeline, hiding behind him and looking at everyone. "Nash, who are they, why are they looking at me like that? Get them all out, I'm scared.""You all, leave," Nash ordered.Zoe was furious to see him so easily swayed by Miranda. She snapped, "Nash, she pulls this and you fall for it? Do you even have a brain?""Leave!" Nash emphasized firmly.Seeing him so protective of Miranda and watching h
Miranda looked bewildered and surprised, "What did I miss? Why can't I hear anything? Do I have some illness?""No," the assistant comforted her.Nash stood nearby, carefully observing Miranda's every move. Her every action indeed resembled those from the past, as if she was experiencing memory loss.After staring for a while, he typed a message to her, "There are many reporters outside wanting to interview you. Do you want to go and talk to them?"Miranda naturally refused, "I don't want to."Waking up from her sleep, Miranda suffered from memory loss and became a true victim.As for the video, Nash knew it was uploaded by her assistant, Ruby.When questioned about the incident, the assistant boldly admitted, "I'm the one who uploaded the video. Miranda was bullied, and no one came to her defense. So, I left it to the netizens to judge. She had no one to stand up for her, but she had fans supporting her, and I'm one of them. Mr. York, if you want to punish someone, punish me. B
"Are you talking about the trafficking case?" Ben responded, "I remember, it was a very serious criminal case, and I was involved as a defense lawyer."At that time, there was no public trial. There were many dark things involved and he had a strong impression of it."Yeah." Ben was no stranger to this matter. Nash then said to him, "It was also around this time that Miranda left the country without notice."Ben added, "It might just be a coincidence. Miranda is just a girl. She shouldn't be involved in such a big case."If she was involved in this case, it would probably involve even more people around her. It would also indicate that Miranda was not simple.Ben had very little contact with Miranda. He had been friends with Nash for many years, and had only met her a few times. He wouldn't befriend her either."Let's hope not."Nash could only say that, "But you know, even though the case was solved, the mastermind behind it was never caught.""There were many suspicious point
