Chapter 735

Author: Faith Shaw
Nina felt deeply touched. "Meeting you has been a blessing for me too. We've helped each other so much!"

Seeing that they had a lot to talk about, Nash said, "Scarlett works for me now. Didn't you mention wanting to learn self-defense? Scarlett can teach you."

"Really?" Nina's eyes lit up. "I'd love that! Once I’ve fully recovered, I definitely want to learn!"

Nash smiled, genuinely happy to see Nina excited. He hoped she could protect herself.

"You two keep chatting. There's plenty of time," Nash said.

Nina looked at him. "Are you leaving?"

Nash nodded. "I have a lot to take care of. I'll come back to be with you once I'm done."

"Okay." Nina did not want to hold him up.

Nash left, gently closing the door behind him.

Outside, a well-dressed man in his fifties, looking like a butler, was waiting. He was accompanied by four or five burly bodyguards. The butler bowed respectfully to Nash.

"Three months is your deadline. Please remember our agreement."

Nash's expression was cold

    Nina felt puzzled, "Why?"Scarlett thought for a moment and then found an excuse, "He's always busy in the lab and can't take calls. It's best not to disturb him. When he's done, he'll definitely come to see you. This way, he won't be distracted from his research."Nina thought Scarlett made a lot of sense. She did not want Wilfred to be distracted either, knowing he had more important things to handle."Okay, I'll wait until he's not busy," Nina said without thinking much more about it.Scarlett looked at Nina and saw the joyful smile on her face. However, Scarlett was looking a bit uneasy. Worried Nina might overthink things, she hesitated to say more. Instead, she gratefully said, "Captain York has been really good to me. Thanks to you, he gave me a new identity. I owe everything to you and him. I won't ever let you down."She spoke as if making a vow, but Nina responded, "You're being too polite. We're friends. You used to protect me, and now it's my turn to protect you. Eve

    "I wouldn't be here today..." Nelly's tears burst forth as she cried openly on stage. "I am especially grateful to one person who couldn't be here today, but this honor belongs to her too. That's Nina. She not only saved me but also saved our entire crew. Without her, I wouldn't be standing here today. Please remember, she is also the director of 'Glory'—Nina!"After she finished speaking, there was another round of applause. Nina, knowing how difficult the journey had been, felt her eyes well up with emotion.Nelly finished her speech, and then Penelope came up to say a few words. She was more confident than ever, perhaps because she now had a solid foundation."Ten years ago, I was a small-time actress," she began. "In the ten years of struggling, I have stood on high peaks and have also fallen. But in the end, I got back up!"Her words were inspiring, and the audience responded with applause. Smiling at the camera, she continued, "Like our director, the person I am most grateful

    Nina heard labored breathing, followed by Scott's voice, "I think I'm close, but I'm not sure what will happen next. I can't take the phone with me. No one entering can bring a phone. If discovered, it would be disastrous. I hope whoever finds this phone can call one of the contacts to let them know I'm alive. I'm doing this not just for her, but for all those who have been hurt. Thank you!"That was all. Just one message."He will be safe. Things aren't as bad as they seem and everything will be okay," Nina whispered to herself, gripping the phone tightly.She thanked the caller and hung up, but her heart was still uneasy. She knew nothing about the organization Scott was infiltrating. If he went in, could he come out? How would she explain this to his parents?Nina wished she could go immediately, but she was still in recovery and hadn’t learned self-defense yet. Going now would only hinder.Late at night, Nash came to see Nina. He timed his visit for when she would be aslee

    Nina felt a bit reassured. "Of course he's a good person.""I also wish someone could be by your side," Nash said softly.Nina stiffened and looked up at him. "What do you mean by that?"Nash gently patted her back. "Just trying to comfort you so you can sleep.""Is this how you comfort someone? You never used to be like this. Lately, you've been distant with me," she replied.Her words were striking a chord with Nash, leaving him uncertain whether to keep his distance or come closer.He instinctively tightened his hold on her. "I'm afraid of upsetting you or making you dislike me."Nina realized she felt a deep sense of loss, despite everyone still being there. It was as if no one was truly by her side. She did not want to lose anyone else.She held onto Nash's waist. "What should I do? Am I getting sick again? It feels like something's wrong, like I've lost everything, and no one is around."The baby wasn't with her, Scott wasn't there, and even Wilfred seemed absent. She fe

    Nina was completely stunned. She thought the nurse must be joking. How could her baby not be here?She forced a shaky smile. "No... Nurse, you must be mistaken. I just gave birth. If my baby isn't here, where else could he be?"Nina considered other possible issues. "If my name isn't registered, the father's name should be. Check for Nash York's name. Look again."Despite trying to remain rational, Nina was starting to panic. The nurse immediately checked again."There's no record of that name either," she confirmed."That's impossible!" Nina refused to believe it. "I'll check myself! Let me look!"She was completely frantic now. Convinced the nurse had missed something, she grabbed the records to check for herself. When she did not find the name, her heart sank.Nina tried to reassure herself. "It must have been an oversight. I'll go look!"Unsure of what to do, she pretended to be calm and insisted on looking for her baby."Ma'am, you can't go in. Parents are not allowed bey

    Nina’s eyes were red with tears. She stared intensely at Nash, gritting her teeth. "Nash, when will you stop lying to me? Why did you have to lie about our baby too?""I'm sorry.""Sorry? What good is that?" Nina screamed hysterically. "Can it bring our baby back? What did you do? How could our baby die? What did you do to my baby?"Nash's eyes were bloodshot as he tightly pressed his lips together, looking both cold and heartless. "He was dead at birth!"In that moment, Nina's heart broke completely. She stared into his eyes, now filled with hatred. She lunged forward and bit his arm hard.Nash did not move, enduring the pain, letting her vent her fury. Blood trickled from her mouth and dripped onto the floor.Nina continued to glare at him, biting down with such force it seemed she might tear off his flesh. The blood flowed from the bite, but Nash made no attempt to stop her, showing no expression.Seeing his lack of reaction, Nina felt it wasn't enough to release her anger an

    Nina clutched the box, crying hysterically. She had never been this heartbroken before. There was nothing she could do. She would have given her life for her baby's. Why was she alive while her child was dead? She couldn't accept it.Nash approached and seeing her in such agony, his eyes were filled with a heaviness he couldn't soothe. But the reality was set, and he had to pick her up and tell her, "You can have more children. You need to pull yourself together."Nina, lost in grief, was beyond reason. The anticipation she had for her baby's arrival now turned into immense sorrow, more painful than death. Seeing Nash, her emotions became even more intense. She shoved him away forcefully, "Get away from me! What did you do? What have you done? 'You can have more children,' you say, as if it's nothing! Aren't you sad? Do you even have a heart? Did you ever love him at all?"Nash pressed his lips together, not answering her questions, and instead reached to wipe away her tears

    Nina's face was smeared with dirt and tears, looking utterly disheveled. When she tried to stand up, she had no strength left and fainted. Nash caught her just in time.Now, Nina was quiet, with tears still streaming down her cheeks. Nash's deep eyes fixed on her as he gently wiped away her tears."Captain," someone called out.At that moment, they were all there. Nash cradled Nina in his arms. "Clean this place up," he ordered.Scarlett's face turned pale, and she hesitated. "Is that it? She will be heartbroken."Nash replied, "If we don't do this, she'll have nothing but death. As long as she's alive, there's hope. Even if this child is gone, she must live."To Nash, Nina's life was more important than the child's. Even if she hated him for it, he would accept that.Scarlett fell silent, unable to bear seeing Nina in such pain."Take care of the rest," Nash instructed Scarlett. "Keep her safe and remember what I told you."Scarlett responded seriously, "I understand. I w

    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.
