Chapter 638

Author: Faith Shaw
After half an hour, the office door finally opened. As soon as the door cracked open, Nelly sensed there were people inside.

"Chief, I must treat you to a meal sometime," Miranda said, her face beaming with a smile. "Your advice today was invaluable. I really must thank you."

She never missed an opportunity to get close to influential people.

"Of course, if it's a meal with Nash around, I'll certainly be there!" the broadcasting bureau chief replied, indicating his willingness to accommodate Nash.

Nash shook hands with the chief and said softly, "Miranda is one of my artists. She'll be invaluable in many projects moving forward."

The chief chuckled and teased, "Is she an artist or your girlfriend? Nash, at this point, there’s no need to hide things from me. I understand why you'd get involved personally."

Miranda blushed slightly but maintained her composure. "Chief, you have a keen eye. When Nash and I get married, you must come!"

She clung to Nash’s arm as she spoke.

    The chief originally did not want any friction between them over this matter and planned to discuss it in detail with them. However, the director’s words made him a bit embarrassed.Nina had considered that Miranda might say something or play some tricks behind the scenes, but why did Nash get involved?Naturally puzzled, Nina said, "So it was Mr. York who had objections to our drama series."Nash’s gaze finally landed on her, but to Nina, he seemed like a stranger. After their separation, he was no longer the Nash she knew. He now belonged to Miranda."Modern dramas are scrutinized more strictly by the broadcasting authority. Themes of violence and revenge are indeed not suitable for prime time as they affect the values of teenagers," Nash said coldly, directly criticizing their series. "I think your drama shouldn’t just aim to thrill. Target audiences, especially impressionable teenagers, can be significantly influenced.""That’s impossible!" Nina retorted. "Our drama is about c

    The chief looked at Nina and her team, clearly wanting to end the confrontation quickly. Nina stopped engaging with Miranda, realizing she could not expect any answers from Nash. His actions showed he was fully on Miranda's side, making their already difficult path even more challenging.Once inside, the door closed firmly behind them. Miranda grumbled, "She's just trying to curse me, wishing me ill!"Then she turned to Nash, feeling pleased, "Good thing you stood up for me, otherwise I'd be bullied."Nash reassured her, "Don't worry, their drama series won't make it to TV."Miranda felt a sense of satisfaction, "Nash, you're so sharp. You found a flaw that kept them off the air."Nash remained silent. But Miranda was immersed in her love for him and continued, "I talked to my dad, and we should have dinner together sometime."Nash squinted slightly, "When?""I'll check with him and let you know."Meanwhile, in the chief's office, Nina asked again, "Chief, is there really

    "Got it!" Nash was waiting to find out the exact location of Seth Duncan. This man had vanished after being released from prison! His counter-surveillance skills were exceptional, and he had not surfaced on anyone's radar during this period.Even though Miranda never mentioned their connection, it was undeniable. The only person Seth could contact was his daughter. Miranda's involvement was even more obvious. Pharaoh's poison reaching her hands had to be related to Seth. Nash had to find him, and Miranda was the bait.Just then, another call came in. "Mr. York, the number is now disconnected. The last time it was used was at a phone booth."Nash expected this outcome but still hoped to catch a break. If Seth had not switched SIM cards, he might have been able to track him down. This only confirmed that Seth was meticulous and not easily fooled. They needed bait to lure him out.---In the dead of night, Seth moved in a specific direction. Fully equipped, he blended into

    Seth's eyes were cold and piercing. "What about those female corpses?"Sawyer's expression stiffened as he downed a glass of wine. "How should I know? You don't think it was me, do you?"Seth replied, "Pharaoh has ordered us not to make any moves until he gives the word. You know the consequences of disobeying him.""Pharaoh isn't even in the country."Seth sensed the underlying message. "So, you're admitting it?"Sawyer smiled. "That's not what I said. There's no proof it was me. But Seth, we've been working together for years, as equals. Despite my hospitality and offer to share my territory, you show up and start accusing me. That's not very fair, is it?"Seth sneered. "Are you planning to betray the organization?"Sawyer's expression darkened. "Now you're just assigning guilt without proof!"Seth continued, "You're back to your old tricks, dealing in organ trafficking. I can't help but suspect you're trying to set yourself up as the new ruler, planning to betray the organiz

    Seth did not say anything more. But seeing Sawyer's smug expression, thinking Seth was under his control, irritated Seth greatly."Equal partners? No need for that!" Seth refused, knowing well that Sawyer's words were just a façade. He had no intention of becoming complicit with him. "You can keep your crown."Sawyer, seeing Seth so compliant, did not press the issue. He knew he had Seth’s weakness firmly in his grip. No matter how loyal Seth was to Pharaoh, he had to think of a way to protect his own life and his daughter’s life too.With this understanding, Sawyer felt that Seth's release from prison posed no real threat to him.As Seth left, his face was dark with brooding thoughts. Sawyer watched him go, a sly grin playing on his lips."Are you really going to let him go? Aren’t you afraid he’ll snitch?" one of Sawyer’s men asked."He won't dare," Sawyer replied confidently. "Besides, if we move against him, Pharaoh will start asking questions."He could not afford to kill S

    Miranda smiled gently. "It's settled then. Nash will be pleased.""When you're heading back, be cautious. It's not safe in the city right now with those female body cases popping up," Seth warned her.Mentioning this, Miranda asked, "Dad, has the organization mobilized again? I've overheard Nash discussing it with his men."Seth looked up, surprised. "Nash is investigating this?"Miranda nodded. "Yes, he is."A sudden idea struck Seth, and he started to smile. "In that case, give him a tip. It might help him solve the case quickly."---"I can't sit still. I'm going crazy with anxiety!" Nelly said as she paced back and forth, unable to stay seated."What's the rush? It hasn't even started yet, and you've never been this nervous before," Nina remarked."You don't understand. This is my baby. Of course, I want it to do well. The uncertainty is what's making me anxious!" Nelly replied."Sit down," Nina urged, pulling her into a chair. "Whether it succeeds or not, we'll find out

    Yvonne was trying to lift everyone's spirits, but no one seemed to be able to muster any enthusiasm. The high expectations they had set for themselves had not been met, and naturally, their confidence had plummeted.Nelly was beginning to doubt herself, her eyes red with tears. "Maybe my script is just terrible. Why can’t it compete with theirs? I tried so hard!"Her confidence was severely shaken."Of course not!" Nina immediately reassured her. "We barely did any marketing. The buzz is naturally low. It’s just the beginning. Let’s give it a few days and see how it goes."Nelly choked up, "I thought it would do well right out of the gate.""This is good," Nina said, looking at the comments. "The viewers are saying the storyline is fresh and exciting and that they can’t wait for more.""But the ratings aren’t there!" Nelly said, frustrated. "We’re only in second place on the platform, and there’s a huge gap. What good are good reviews without high ratings?""It will go up," Ni

    Even though they were divorced, having such a dream still left Nina terrified. With that, she completely lost any desire to sleep. She turned on the light, struggled to sit up while holding her belly. She then got out of bed to drink a glass of water. She picked up her phone and started scrolling through the news online. At this moment, it seemed to be the fastest way for her to get updates from the outside world. There was no progress on the case of the murdered women, but her worries persisted. She thought of Wilfred. Since she last saw him in his studio, she had not seen him again. Busy with work, she had not noticed if there was any movement next door. She opened the door. Now, in the dead of night, even a pin dropping could be heard. Standing at Wilfred's door, she did not know how to face him. She knew her life was hanging by a thread and she did not want to drag them down, yet she could not help but worry. These conflicted feelings were hard to manage.It was as if Wi

    Chloe scoffed, “What’s the big deal? When I married your father, I just threw on a simple dress and walked into the house. I still have that dress, you know.”She muttered under her breath, “Marriage is about building a life together. What’s the point of all these fancy extras?”A wedding dress? A suit? That sounded expensive. Their family had barely saved a few thousand dollars over the years. How could they justify spending it all on a wedding? *Vera, taking advantage of the last bit of battery on her phone, quickly pulled up photos of wedding dresses and suits. She handed the phone to Alice. “Your brother would look really handsome in a suit.” Alice gasped in excitement. “Wow! These clothes are so pretty! Vera, you’re already beautiful—if you wear this, you’ll look just like a fairy!” Then she hesitated. “When we get the dress… can I try it on too?” “Of course.” This wasn’t a wedding Vera had agreed to in the first place. She had shown Alice the pictur

    Alice looked at Vera and tried to reassure her. “It’s just a little meat. It won’t make you gain weight, I promise. Last Christmas, I ate a whole plate of pork, and look—I didn’t gain a pound!”Vera said nothing. In a place like this, meat was probably a rare luxury, something they only had on holidays or special occasions. Things like snack foods, takeout, or even basic convenience store items were probably unheard of here. How could anyone gain weight in a place like this? But Vera wasn’t refusing to eat because she was worried about that.Still, Alice meant well.Even though Vera resented her in this moment, she knew when to pick her battles.So she picked up her fork and ate the piece of chicken.Chloe finally looked pleased.“You haven’t had a baby yet, so why worry about your weight? Eat more—you’ll need the strength to have a big, healthy boy. After that, you can think about getting your figure back. Tonight, you’ll sleep in Peter’s room. You’re already his,

    Vera's expression changed completely as she looked at the family. “What are you talking about? Why would I stay here? I have my own life.” “Vera, didn’t you say you couldn’t find your brother?” Alice’s voice grew anxious. “Then take my brother instead! He’ll protect both of us. This is a good thing for you! Don’t tell me you think my brother isn’t good enough?“His leg isn’t perfect, and he can’t do heavy labor, but he’s not useless. And I can help him with the farm work—we can do it together!” Her words were absurd. If Vera had known this was her real intention, she never would have accepted her help. “Enough, both of you, stop talking.”Gerald had lived long enough to understand that his son and Vera were worlds apart. He also knew that there was no way she would willingly stay. But plenty of women in the village hadn’t wanted to stay either. That didn’t matter. As long as she was here, that was enough. He got straight to the point. “Our village

    The young girl suddenly looked torn. In their village, getting a wife was extremely difficult. Families with a little money could sometimes bring a wife in from outside, but for families like hers, who had nothing to offer, it was nearly impossible. To make things worse, her brother had a bad leg. As a child, he had been mocked by other kids. He could still walk, but not quickly—and he couldn’t do the heavy farm work required to support a family. Now that he was getting older and still living alone, she felt incredibly anxious. Today, by some stroke of luck, she had met a woman in the mountains who was as beautiful as a goddess. She was determined to make this woman her sister-in-law. But if she left now, what if the woman ran away or was taken away by someone else in the village? What would happen to her brother then? *“It’s already so late,” Vera said gently. “Even if everyone in the village knows each other, it’s still not safe for a young girl

    Up ahead was a village. “Miss, it’s really late today, so I’ll take you home first. My parents and brother will take good care of you, and you can get a good night’s sleep at our place. Once you’ve rested, we’ll take you to town tomorrow.” The young girl tightened her grip on Vera’s hand. “My mom is a great cook! She’ll definitely make a big meal to welcome you.” It really was late. The sky was completely dark, and Vera’s phone battery was nearly dead. The girl was still so young. She had already gone out of her way to bring Vera back from the deep mountains. It wouldn’t be right to ask her to take her all the way to town tonight. Vera still had some cash in her pocket. After covering the cost of transportation, she decided she would leave the rest for the girl’s family. If it weren’t for the girl, who knew how long she would have been wandering in the mountains? “My house is just ahead. It’s not in great shape, so don’t mind it too much. Next year, whe

    Vera’s nerves tensed up again. A sudden sound in the middle of nowhere was never a good sign. If it was a snake or some other large animal, she would be in serious trouble. Her ankle was swollen, and she couldn’t run fast. Would this be where it all ended for her? She had to leave quietly. But the ground was covered in thick layers of fallen leaves, with dry branches hidden underneath. Crack. As she stepped back, her foot snapped a twig, the sound piercing through the silence. Only one thought filled her mind—this was it. The rustling nearby grew louder. Vera squeezed her eyes shut, bracing herself. Then, a voice suddenly spoke beside her. “Miss, why are you here alone? Didn’t your family come with you?” It was a person. Not an animal. Vera’s eyes flew open. A young girl stood in front of her. Fear dissolved in an instant, replaced by relief. She was saved.“I came here alone. Little one, do you know how to get out of here?” Ver

    Hunter took a bite of the biscuits and ravioli she had made. The taste was surprisingly good. It wasn’t on the level of a Michelin-starred chef, but it had something even more special—the taste of home. And of course, there was the oatmeal. He took one spoonful after another, finishing the entire bowl. *Meanwhile, Vera still hadn’t found her brother. Disappointment weighed heavily on her as she prepared to leave. But just then, her phone buzzed. An anonymous message. She tapped it open and stared at the image attached. It was a watch. Alone, a watch meant nothing. But this watch was her brother’s. Vera immediately zoomed in on the photo, carefully inspecting the engravings inside. There they were—his initials. No mistake. This was his watch. Below the image, a location pin was attached. The place was nearby. Vera’s eyes filled with determination. If she had found nothing, she would have simply left. But now, she had recei

    When Yelena woke up again, she was shocked to find that she wasn’t at the club. She sat up abruptly, looking around in confusion. Then, she got out of bed, slipped on her slippers, and pushed the door open. “Where am I?” “At my place,” Hunter replied casually. He was working in the living room when he saw her wake up. “You slept for a long time. I couldn’t just leave you alone at the club, so I brought you back here.” Seeing the uncertainty on her face, he added, “It’s already late. Just stay here for the night. I’ll take you back tomorrow.” Yelena nodded. There was no other choice now. “There’s food in the fridge. If you’re hungry, heat something up. There are also snacks in the drawer—take whatever you want.” “Alright.” She really was hungry. She opened the drawer, grabbed a few small bread rolls, ate them quickly, and then went back to her room to rest. *The next morning, Yelena woke up early. Thinking about everything Hunter had done—treatin

    Yelena quickly lowered her arm, letting her sleeve fall over the mark to cover it. “It’s nothing. Here’s your cocktail. Please enjoy.” “Yelena.” Hunter grabbed her wrist without warning. He pulled up her sleeve, revealing the deep, ugly scars on her arm. His brows knitted together instantly. “Who did this to you?” The force behind it was brutal—downright inhuman. Yelena remained silent. Who else could have done this besides Liam? But she had agreed to this. She had willingly accepted Hunter’s request and entered Liam’s world. She had no right to complain. Her silence gave Hunter all the confirmation he needed. “Liam did this to you, didn’t he?” Yelena nodded. “It’s nothing. The wounds have already started healing. They look worse than they feel. Give it some time, and they’ll fade.” “Wait here.” Hunter stood abruptly and walked away. Yelena had no idea what he was doing, but since he told her to wait, she didn’t argue. A few minu
