Nash was unaware, but Scott was. She had truly kept it to herself, not mentioning it to anyone.

Scott's words resonated with her deeply. If someone paid even a bit of attention to her, they would recognize the person reflected in the depths of her eyes.

The absence of attention meant ignorance. This indirectly suggested that Nash did not know about her feelings because he hadn't focused on her.

She felt immensely sad.

Scott's heart ached sharply. He had never seen Nina cry so intensely. It was merely Nash tearing up their marriage certificate, seemingly a trivial act, yet it left Nina utterly devastated.

Scott embraced her, gently patting her back. "I understand your sadness. I understand you. You're not wrong. There's nothing wrong with liking someone."

"I was wrong," Nina shook her head. "I was wrong from the beginning. I thought I was special, but I was just a passing figure in his life. It was wrong from the start!"

She liked him because Nash had saved her, and she believed he would value her deeply. But he treated others the same, not just her. There were many others, so she was not special. Nash could not even remember her.

Her own unwarranted feelings had harmed her. She wished she could go back, maybe then she would not have taken it to heart. She would not have mistaken his indifference for care, and she would not have fallen into this web of emotions woven with knives.

"It's okay now, everything's okay." Scott's eyes were also red as he hoarsely spoke. "Time will forget everything, and you will break free from it."

Nina still held onto the piece of paper, clutching it tightly in her palm. She cried for a long time until she exhausted herself. She had cried for Nash many times before, but this time was the hardest.

Her heart slowly cracked open and seemed beyond repair. Eventually, she regained her composure. Apart from her red eyes, she sat in silence for a long time, still holding onto that piece of marriage certificate She needed time to process. She also believed in Scott's words that time would change everything, and she could eventually push Nash out of her heart. She just had not found the right way yet. Seeing her like this, Scott was still very worried, so he called Yvonne over. Yvonne dropped everything to come to Nina's side.

When Yvonne arrived, Scott said, "I'll leave this to you."

Seeing Scott's worried expression, Yvonne added, "Scott, I think what you did wasn't wrong. Since Nash cares about someone else, he should know that Nina also has someone who cares about her and isn't lacking in attention!"

Scott did not say anything. He had taken matters into his own hands, unsure if it was good or bad for Nina. He left the hospital room to give them space.

Nina touched her face, afraid there might still be tears. She was feeling too disheveled, which was not like her usual self. "I'm okay now. Everyone has emotions. Crying is a way to release them and make oneself feel less miserable."

However, Yvonne said, "Nina, you should consider Scott. Moving on from your current relationship means starting a new one. Without Nash, the world won't stop turning."

Nina took a deep breath to alleviate her suppressed emotions and shook her head. "I'm pregnant. It's not appropriate. I can't hold him him."

Yvonne had a different opinion. "Do you know how many years Scott has waited for you? You don't seriously believe that he's been harboring a secret crush on you all these years without making a move, do you?"
