"Probably, but I feel like I've caused you trouble.""Don't say that. We're friends, and this isn't your fault. You've helped me with so much. If I didn't say such polite things, neither should you. Are we not friends?" Penelope laughed and added, "By the way, I have some great news for you. Our drama is a hit!"Nina was pleasantly surprised. "Really?"Penelope continued, "Yes, it's been steadily gaining momentum and now has the highest ratings in history. When you have time, you should check it out. Also, 'Demon Bone' started strong but is now falling apart. Everyone's criticizing it online, saying the plot is dragging and it looks like it's going to have a bad ending. Its ratings are dropping day by day. We won this round!""That's fantastic," Nina said. "I expected as much."She had always had high hopes for their show. Even when the initial buzz was low, she believed it had potential. She thought, even if the audience's acceptance wasn't high, at least breaking even would be

Nash paused for a moment, surprised. "He moved!"Nina felt it too. "See, I told you it was real."Nash pressed his face against her belly. "Do you think he can sense me?"Nina looked down at him, smiling. "Probably. Babies are quite perceptive, even before they're born. I think he can hear us talking."Nash was overjoyed. It was a new feeling, the joy of becoming a father. He kissed Nina's belly, cherishing their time together.Nina stroked his hair. "You'll get to meet him soon. Even though you haven't been around much lately, you'll have plenty of time to bond with him once he's born."Nash smiled without saying a word. He helped Nina to the bedroom. She wanted to take a bath and rest. He prepared a nightgown for her and helped her with a bath. These were tasks Nina had always done for Nash, but now the roles were reversed. Nina felt a bit shy but reminded herself that they were about to have a child, so she let Nash take on the responsibilities of a husband and father.Na

Nash was fortunate.In the first half of his life, he was not sure what he was striving for. On the surface, he had achieved a few things, holding a respectable position, but his life felt incomplete and hollow. He was merely getting by, with no clear direction. Even returning to the York family to fulfill his grandfather’s wishes was more of an obligation than a desire.He knew his grandfather felt guilty towards him. Growing up in the York family, he never experienced parental love and was burdened with the family's expectations. His life was materially rich but emotionally barren. His grandfather, feeling sorry for him, wished for someone to love him properly. And then Nina appeared.Hearing this, Nina felt a bit of bittersweetness. Maybe it was because she was pregnant, her thoughts were more sensitive, and she felt more vulnerable."Nash," Nina looked down, feeling that her past imagination no longer mattered as much. "Will we be able to stay together happily? Without doub

Nash helped Nina to her seat, thoughtfully pulling out the chair for her. These were tasks the helpers usually handled, but he found a sense of accomplishment in doing even the smallest things for her. In matters of love, he didn’t have much experience, but he knew he needed to be attentive and considerate to his woman.Nina noticed a change in Nash but couldn't quite pinpoint what was different. Perhaps their relationship had just become closer. The breakfast spread was simple but offered a variety of options. Nina, wanting to ensure she got the necessary nutrients, chose some eggs, beef, and pasta. Nash sat beside her, helping to serve her favorite foods. "That's enough, I can't eat that much," Nina protested, gently pushing his hand away. Just because she was pregnant didn’t mean she needed to eat everything in sight.Nash disagreed, "You're pregnant, but you don't seem to be gaining much weight. When I hold you, you're still so light. You need more nutrition, so eat a bit m
