Hearing this, Nash was shocked and turned pale, furrowing his brows tightly. He said, “Where are you? I’ll be right there!”
“What’s happening, Nash?” Miranda asked, seeing his urgency.
“Nina is in trouble!” Nash didn’t even glance at her, he just ran out.
Seeing how hurried he was, Miranda sensed his deep concern for Nina, but she had no idea what was going on. Nina had been perfectly fine during the day. How could something happen so suddenly? She looked at the gift box left behind, untouched, feeling a pang of disappointment.
The assistant beside her said, “Just a few hours ago, Nina was fine. What could have happened? Could it be that she found out Mr. York was here and
intentionally caused trouble to ruin the relationship between you two?”
Miranda’s face went slightly pale, but she composed herself and said, “That’s unlikely. Nina isn’t that petty. Maybe something really did happen. I’m thinking if I should go help.”
“Miranda, you’re too kind. I think Nina is quite cunning,” the assistant said. “You can’t let her bully you. Mr. York and you are meant to be together. Nina snatched your man away. You shouldn’t sympathize with her. If she hadn’t interfered, you and Mr. York would have been together long ago.”
The assistant badmouthed Nina, feeling indignant for Miranda.
Nash arrived at the address given, which was a hotel. He rushed upstairs and opened the door to the suite. “Nina!”
Entering, he found Nina lying asleep on the bed. He looked around but didn’t see any danger. He carefully inspected the room. Walking to the bedside, he called out, “Nina.”
At that moment, Nina woke up, opened her eyes, and saw Nash. She sat up and asked, “What are you doing here?”
She had just been chatting over coffee with Zoe. Zoe mentioned feeling tired from sitting too long
and suggested getting a root
at
nearby hotel to continue their conversation. They were getting along quite well, and there were endless topics to discuss, so she accompanied her here.
Later, feeling tired, she decided to take a nap here. She looked around but didn’t see any sign of Zoe. When Nash saw that she was fine, he realized he had been fooled, and his initially tense emotions relaxed. “Are you okay?” he asked.
“What could happen to me?” Nina thought for a moment and then asked, “Zoe…”
“Nina, are you joking with me?” Nash said seriously. “Do you know how worried I’ve been about you?”
Nina didn’t fully understand the
situation, but she remembered Zoe asking if she wanted to know if Nash was worked about her. She didn’t think much of it at the time, but seeing Nash sweating and breathing heavily, it was clear he had hurried there genuinely concerned about
her.
“I just took a nap,” Nina explained. “I had no idea. you were worried about me. “If I had known, it wouldn’t have been like this.”
She thought to herself, it must have been something Zoe did to make Nash so anxious.
Nash’s emotions were in turmoil. He couldn’t decide whether to calm down or let his anger rise. Feeling a bit warm, he leaned against the wall, adjusting his tie.
Thinking about the gift she bought him today, Nina said, “Why don’t you take a rest? I bought you a coat at the mall today. It’s not very expensive, but it’s a token of my affection.”
At that moment, Quincy walked in and whispered something urgent into Nash’s ear.
His expression grew even more
serious, with sweat still beading on
his forehead as he cast a cold
glance at Nina. “No need to bother. I hope you’ll be more considerate in the future and refrain from playing pranks that interfere with my work.”
His words caused Nina’s face to tense up. Holding the carefully chosen coat, it suddenly felt heavy in her hand, prompting her to slowly lower it.
After Nash finished speaking, he walked out without looking back, showing no concern for Nina’s emotions.
“Nash, now that you’re here, where else do you think you’re going?”
