Chapter 946

Author: Faith Shaw
Eventually, the bag covering Nina's head was removed. She saw the car's interior light up with a warm orange glow, revealing several men holding guns.

The man sitting next to her had some white hairs at his temples. The lighting was dim on his side, so she could not make out his face clearly.

The man smirked, "Why do you think we captured you to exchange for Seth?"

Nina remained silent, deep in thought. If they did not want to trade her for Seth, what was their goal?

Or maybe her reports had affected the interests of the allied forces? Were they planning to use her as a bargaining chip with the Yaren tribe?

Nina's breath quickened. She had not revealed her connection to Micah or Pharaoh. She had mentioned those names hoping it would make these people reconsider and release her.

Clearly, it had not worked. She could not afford to become a burden to them.

"If that's not it, then just kill me." Nina leaned back against the seat, resigned. With Nash's survival a secret, she coul

    Nash did not want to involve her, but since it concerned her directly, she had the right to know the truth. He knew how stubborn she could be, especially when she was angry. After a moment of silence, Nash spoke slowly, "These people are from my father's side. Sally isn't my biological mother, and William isn't my biological father. My real father is the president of Salterra. When I fell into the river that runs through the Yaren tribe, it was my father who saved me. I spent a long time recovering, and later he arranged many things for me. Nina, I made a deal with him back then. There were things I had to agree to."Nina could guess some of the complications that had kept Nash from contacting her, but hearing it from him still hurt. She wanted to reach out and hold him, but she held back, thinking about their child. "What about the child, Nash? I'm not a child myself. I can handle the truth. Is our child alive or not?"Tears welled up in her eyes as she gripped Nash's hand. St

    Nina pushed Nash away. "Go do what you need to do. As long as my child is alive…""Are you saying you don't want me anymore?"Nash could not bear to hear the rest of her words. His bloodshot eyes were fixed on Nina, his gaze intense and full of emotion. The redness in his eyes spread, and layers of sorrow seemed to rise within him.He knew that after being away for five years and suddenly reappearing, she would be angry and blame him. But he had no way to fight fate, no way to appear before her as the broken man he had been.Nina felt a surge of emotion, her blood rushing to her head. She looked at Nash, noting the scar on his forehead and the strands of white hair. Her heart ached intensely.She reached out to touch his face. "You have your position and your obligations. Nash, I can't stop you, and I can't help you. All I want now is my child."She was desperate to return to Orion, to make up for the five years she had missed as his mother.Nash's heart was in agony. He would r

    Nina frowned but remained silent.Eugene continued, "I won't hurt you. I have some things I need to tell you."Nina looked at him, waiting for him to speak.After a moment of silence, Eugene began, "Mr. Nash was saved by the President and remained in a coma for over three years. The bullet was very close to his heart, and he had multiple fractures and severe injuries all over his body. During his recovery, without the use of anesthesia to avoid side effects, he underwent countless surgeries and therapy sessions. In his moments of pain, he always called your name. He cares about you deeply. Now, he's even willing to defy the President for your sake. The President has a Reset Plan—""Eugene!" Eugene was abruptly interrupted by Nash's angry shout from outside the room. He immediately stood at attention, responding instinctively.Nash's men were trained to react this way. Despite the interruption, Eugene's words echoed in Nina's mind. She had suspected Nash had reasons for his actio

    This was the real Nash!No matter how angry Nina had been before, she loved Nash deeply and could not bear to see him die in front of her. Besides, his men had already explained everything to her. He had explained it himself, and she could understand his situation and feel his pain.Nina held Nash even tighter. "Nash, you have your reasons. Honestly, I’m grateful your father saved you."If it weren’t for his father, Nash might have died in that icy river. She would never have seen him again or been able to hold him like this.Most parents would want their children to succeed, and his father was the president. Their positions were different, especially now that she had been exposed as Pharaoh’s daughter and labeled the "daughter of a demon.""Nash, can I take Orion back to Birkham?" Nina decided not to dwell on their issues because thinking about them would only bring pain and suffocation. Orion was her child, and she wanted to take him out of the war zone and give him the best

    Dominic could not believe that Nash was actually throwing words at him here right now!He did not need anyone to point fingers at what he was doing.Nash's expression darkened as well. He pulled Nina behind him and said, "If you don't want to listen, then handle your own matters yourself. Don’t drag others into it."This could also be understood as he was stepping down as the Third Prince.And all of this was because of Nash's stance, particularly because of his relationship with Nina.Dominic pulled out his gun. As he cocked the trigger, Nash stood in front of Nina. Nash was ready to face death.Dominic was ruthless, but Nash had recovered and was still his most valued child. He could not just shoot Nash dead."It seems like you’re determined to be with her, even if it kills you. Fine, if she wants to be your wife, then she has to fulfill the duties of a wife. Being the wife of the Third Prince of Salterra isn’t that easy!" Dominic glared at Nina, his words cold and sharp.Nin

    Nina was fearless, but Nash held her hand tightly. Although Dominic did not say anything, Nina noticed the cold fury in his eyes, making him look like a demon emerging from hell.As the ruler of a nation, Dominic was not accustomed to anyone speaking to him in such a tone, except during wartime."You’d better pray you don’t end up alone..."Before Dominic could finish his sentence, Nash angrily cut him off. "If you want to kill her, you'll have to kill me first!"Determination flashed in Nash’s eyes, spreading through his entire being in an instant.Dominic did not respond. His lips pressed into a straight line as he stared at Nash for a few seconds before finally turning and leaving.After Dominic left, Nina grasped Nash’s hand. "Maybe you should go back to Salterra and follow your father’s plan...""Nina, I wanted to wait until everything was settled. Because of uncontrollable circumstances, I couldn’t be by your side. But now, at this point, I can’t leave you because... you’r

    For now, the only option was to coax him into eating a bit more. Thankfully, Micah’s words seemed to work. However, apart from eating, Orion remained completely silent.Micah watched Orion, hesitating for a moment before dialing Wilfred’s number. Wilfred quickly answered, "Mr. Micah."Micah said, "Nina has been helping a little boy, but he won't speak. I have a feeling something's wrong. Are you in Salterra? If so, come over and take a look at him."Since Nina had come to Salterra as a war journalist, Wilfred had also relocated and opened a small clinic to treat the local residents. Knowing how devoted Wilfred was to Nina, the Pharaoh had even helped Wilfred regain a civilian identity."Yes, I’ll come right away."Although Wilfred was usually busy treating patients at his clinic, he would always make time to see Nina. But Nina was often unavailable, and he did not want to impose, so he always asked her first before visiting. Lately, though, she had not been responding to his mes

    Wilfred’s eyes widened in shock. "I was summoned by the military and just got out today."Micah understood immediately. He then signaled with a look, "Just do the DNA test between him and me.""Alright."However, when Wilfred tried to draw Orion’s blood, the boy resisted fiercely, clenching his teeth like a cornered wild animal.Orion quickly fled.Micah tried to calm him down, saying, "We just need to run some tests to make sure you’re not sick. We’re Nina’s friends, and we mean no harm.""You… liar!" Orion struggled to speak.Micah was taken aback. He had not expected Orion to talk but he was determined to get an answer now.Just as he was about to catch Orion, the boy ran straight into someone’s arms. Micah looked closely and realized it was Nina.Standing beside her was a man, about six-foot-three, wearing a black mask. From his sharp, cold eyes, Micah recognized him instantly.He blurted out, "Nash?""It’s me," Nash replied in a low, hoarse voice.He and Nina had rushe

    Why would someone as unbothered by non-work matters as Wilfred suddenly intervene in this situation? Karina didn’t think too deeply about it. She failed to notice that the real reason lay in Wilfred’s reluctance to let Xavier stay at the hospital. After all, the only person Wilfred trusted in the Atlantis hospital was Karina. If Xavier stayed, she would inevitably be the one to care for him. And Wilfred, stationed in Birkham, wouldn’t be able to keep an eye on things. Just the thought of Karina and Xavier spending days and nights together in a place out of his sight, talking and sharing moments, made Wilfred’s gaze grow icy without him realizing it. Meanwhile, Karina, shivering from the sudden chill, blamed the air conditioning or her choice of outfit. She was completely oblivious to the most obvious culprit standing right next to her. The discharge procedures went smoothly. By the afternoon, Xavier’s belongings were packed, and he was ready to leave. Since he was Karina’

    Harley gritted his teeth, glaring at her as if he wanted to press further, but before he could act, Karina was pulled back. Wilfred fixed him with an icy stare. “This isn’t your place to lay a hand on anyone.” “Wilfred!” Ignoring him entirely, Wilfred turned to Karina and asked softly, “Does it hurt?” Her wrist was red, but as she looked at his serious expression, any discomfort seemed to fade. She shook her head. “It doesn’t hurt. With you here, he wouldn’t dare go too far.“Still, there’s no point wasting time on him. Let’s go.” Wilfred nodded. Before leaving, he glanced coolly at Harley and left him with a parting shot. “This bet? I won. Relay this to your mentor and tell him to keep the association’s hands out of Birkham and Atlantis. Otherwise, I won’t hesitate to make sure his reputation is shattered, no matter his age.” With that, they left the corridor. Karina didn’t turn to see Harley’s expression, but as they walked away, she couldn’t help voicing her

    At the time, Wilfred had already guessed that this had everything to do with Harley and his mentor, Professor Zeller. “You and your so-called association don’t focus on benefiting patients. Instead, you spend all your time trying to monopolize everything. And now you want to turn me into one of you? Keep dreaming.” Wilfred’s tone was filled with disdain, his eyes cold with contempt. The smug smile on Harley’s face slowly faded. With a sneer, Harley’s voice turned bitter. “You know what I despise most about you? That self-righteous, holier-than-thou attitude of yours. I was offering you advice, but if you don’t want to hear it, fine. There’s nothing more to say. After all, if the surgery fails—” Before he could finish the word “fail,” the surgical light outside the operating room flicked off. Clack!The sliding doors parted, and Karina burst through, her face flushed with emotion. She didn’t even notice Harley. Her focus zeroed in on Wilfred. “Wilfred!” Her voice trem

    As the surgery approached, Karina worked overtime, meticulously double-checking for any possible oversights. Before stepping into the operating room, she took a deep breath."Karina, you’ve got this!" a nurse beside her encouraged.This surgery was particularly significant, and the assistants and nurses weren’t from her hospital. They were brought in by the project, specifically by Harley’s team. Without a single familiar face around, Karina felt a twinge of anxiety. Opportunities to lead surgeries were already rare for her, let alone under circumstances like this, with no one she could truly rely on.But there was no turning back now. Gritting her teeth, Karina donned her gloves. As she was about to enter the operating room, her peripheral vision caught sight of a figure standing silently in the distance. It was Wilfred. His steady gaze met hers, his eyes carrying something profound she couldn’t quite decipher. When their eyes locked, a faint smile curved his lips.In th

    “Ava.”A deep voice cut through the air, and Karina turned to see a man in a black suit, wearing a hat and a mask, striding toward them. But the man’s white eyelashes and distinctive eyes were all Karina needed to recognize him. He was her albino patient, Xavier Jasper!Xavier also didn’t expect to run into both Wilfred and Karina here. “It’s you two,” he exclaimed in surprise.Wilfred’s gaze sharpened as he calmly addressed Xavier. “Keep your sister in line. Apologize.”Before Xavier could respond, Ava stepped forward and, to everyone’s surprise, said, “I’m sorry. I was too impulsive. Please forgive me.” Karina was taken aback by how quickly Ava apologized. Even Xavier, who knew his sister’s arrogant tendencies well, looked stunned.Karina nodded, her tone steady but firm. “I forgive you, but that doesn’t mean everyone else will. You should work on your attitude. Stop acting so entitled everywhere you go.” With that, Karina turned on her heel and walked away. Although Xavie

    ”Those were her meticulously compiled notes, the result of hours of hard work—and now they were ruined just like that?” Karina thought.“I’ve never wronged you. Why would you do something like this?” she demanded, her voice trembling with indignation. Something about the situation felt off, and Karina’s sharp intuition told her this wasn’t a simple misunderstanding.Under Karina’s intense gaze, the nurse finally broke down, revealing Ava’s role in orchestrating the whole thing. Karina’s anger turned into a mix of rage and incredulous amusement. “Really? Rich people—did they all enjoy throwing money around like this?”All this trouble, just to ruin her hard-earned work over a seat?Her carefully compiled notes were gone, and there wasn’t a second copy. Arguing wouldn’t bring them back, but Ava wasn’t going to let this slide without giving someone a piece of her mind.Finding Ava wasn’t difficult. In fact, Ava didn’t even try to avoid her. She seemed to be waiting, eager to see

    Just as Ava was about to cause a scene, the sound of steady footsteps filled the room. Wilfred strode in, his white coat enhancing his composed, almost ethereal aura. Ava shot Karina a glare, silently committing her to memory, then begrudgingly found another seat. Wilfred’s gaze swept across the room, pausing ever so briefly on Karina before moving on. She wasn’t sure if it was real or just her imagination. “Today, we’ll discuss cellular structures. I’ll start with an example from my doctoral thesis,” Wilfred announced, adjusting the projector. To Karina’s surprise, he was an exceptional lecturer—clear, engaging, and far more comprehensible than many university professors. She listened intently, taking meticulous notes. Yvette peeked over at Karina’s notebook, wide-eyed at the densely packed writing. “Karina, when you eventually get promoted, land a big raise, or go for your doctorate, I promise I won’t be jealous. Truly.”Karina chuckled. “If you need these notes, I can len

    Karina glanced at the time and quickly gestured for Yvette to sit down as well. However, barely had they taken their seats when a haughty woman marched up to Karina, her sharp gaze fixed on the chair she was sitting on. “You, get up. I want that seat!” Karina frowned, studying the unfamiliar woman. She didn’t recognize her from the hospital, but the designer jewelry around her neck and the branded bag on her arm screamed wealth. She seemed like the kind of entitled socialite who rarely had to fight for anything, let alone a seat.Unsure if the woman was trying to pick a fight or genuinely wanted the chair, Karina pointed to the open seats nearby. “There are plenty of seats over there. Take one of those.”Then, she lowered her head, dismissing the woman entirely.The woman’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Excuse me? I said I want your seat. Get up. Now!” Not content with words alone, she reached out to pull Karina up by force. Karina, now genuinely angry, shook her off. “I was h

    Karina looked slightly surprised. She distinctly remembered that Wilfred wasn’t a drinker. “I thought you avoided alcohol?” Wilfred, ever the epitome of control and composure, preferred to steer clear of anything that dulled his sharpness. Back when they worked at the Birkham Central Hospital, she had seen him reject bottles of expensive wine from people trying to curry favor with him. He sipped his tea slowly before replying, “You’ve started at a new hospital. As your former mentor, I haven’t given you a proper congratulatory gift yet.” “This is… for me?” Karina asked, her voice tinged with disbelief. Wilfred’s gaze was steady as he replied, “Don’t like it? If not, I can send it back and we can find something else later.” He raised his hand to call the server over. “Wait! No need. I like it a lot,” Karina interjected hastily, stopping him in his tracks. The idea of going gift shopping with him later felt uncomfortably like a date. And knowing Wilfred’s personality, w
