Nina noticed that but kept quiet so Miranda assumed Nash was going to give Nina trouble and left feeling smug.

"Then why didn't you mention it earlier?" Nash furrowed his brows.

Nina's words made him realize the issue too.

A touch of sarcasm crossed Nina's lips. "Would something you've already decided change just because of a few words from me?"

With that, Nina shrugged off Nash and left him with her back turned. Nash did not pursue or try to stop her, but his black eyes remained fixed on her retreating figure.

Just as Nash lit a cigarette, Miranda's call came through. He put it on speakerphone. Miranda's voice sounded hoarse on the other end. "Nash, don't make things difficult for Nina. I know it's my fault, and I'll control how often I reach out to you in the future."

"It's best that way," Nash's icy words cut through, leaving Miranda stunned.

Didn't Nash believe that Nina pushed her? There was no footage. And just a few minutes ago, Nash even made Nina apologize to her personally. How could he change his attitude so quickly?

Before Miranda could respond, Nash's cold voice rang out again. "Miranda, don't test my limits."

With that, Nash hung up. Hearing the dial tone, Miranda was dumbfounded.

But for Nina, this was just the beginning. Miranda would surely take drastic measures to eliminate her in order to remain by Nash's side!

As for Nash, after finishing his cigarette, he called for Mary. "Go make some stomach-soothing dishes for Madam now."

From Miranda's visit, Nina barely ate a few bites. He remembered that Nina had a delicate stomach.

"I'll go now," Mary immediately followed Nash's orders. Since it was just for Nina, Mary worked quickly.

When she was about to take the food upstairs to Nina, Nash stopped her. "Wait."

At the moment Mary halted, Nash took the food from her hands and personally headed upstairs.

In the room, Nina was scrolling through her phone, catching up on the news. She had an interest in current events. However, now that she was pregnant and could not afford to be seen after leaving Nash, she was contemplating her next steps when she heard a click.

The bedroom door was pushed open from the outside. Nash walked in carrying food.

Nina could not wrap her head around it. "Mr. York, what's the deal? First, you scold me, and now you're being nice?"

"I really didn't expect it when I saw the surveillance footage, but I also warned her," Nash's voice was low and hoarse.

A cold smirk played across Nina's lips. "Is that so? Should I thank Mr. York for standing up for me today?"

She had a heart and emotions as well. If she was falsely accused of something she did not do, it was only natural for her to feel upset.

Nash pursed his lips, speaking softly, "You haven't eaten much. Have something to eat first."

"If you have time, why don't you go replace Miranda? Haven't you already obtained everything you wanted?" She could not understand why Nash would do this, why he would still care about her emotions. Clearly, she had no more value to offer. He should go to his beloved.

Nash ignored her, sitting down beside her.
