Chapter 46
Over time, without needing to say much, Scott came to understand her. Maintaining hist gentlemanly demeanor, he didn't offer too much explanation: "It's nothing, just go ahead and eat."
Yet, there was a twinge of shame in Nina's heart. To her, Scott was merely an old classmate, hardly event a friend, yet he was so attentive to her needs.
Picking up her fork, she tried to eat the meat in her bowl. However, she couldn't shake off a nauseating smell, which killed her appetite.
"What's wrong? Can't eat anymore?" Scott asked.
Setting down her fork, Nina didn't want to admit. she had lost her appetite. Instead, she replied, "I have a small stomach, and I'm already full."
Nash stood up. "Since everyone's eaten their fill, let's stop here."
Nina could sense his displeasure in Nash's words, so she glanced at him, only to find his cold indifference. Meanwhile, Julia was attending to Zion. With no other choice, Nina had to see Scott off. Seeing Nina's pale complexion, Scott advised, "If you're not feeling well, you don't have to see me off. Go back and rest well. I'll come see you again next time."
Nina had many doubts in her heart, but with Nash present, she refrained from asking too much. She nodded slightly. "Okay, take care then."
"Yeah, goodbye."
Without lingering too long, Scott took one last glance at Nina before leaving
Nash picked up his coat and walked to the door. "Why does Scott understand you so well? Were you two that close in the past?"
"I don't know," Nina replied.
Nash pressed further, "Can't you see it? Scott has strong feelings for you."
Nina looked up at Nash. "There's nothing like that. Please don't make baseless claims. He and I are just classmates. We haven't been in touch for so many years. How could he possibly have feelings for me?" There was no reason for that; they had only met a few times.
"Don't contact him anymore!"Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Nina was puzzled. "Why can't I contact him? He and I are friends."
"I don't like it."
"You dislike many people. It doesn't mean I have to dislike them too."
Seeing her complete lack of awareness, Nash's expression became even more displeased. "Nina, you are so naive!"
His words made Nina feel a bit
ridiculous. "Nash, don't you think it's
unreasonable for you to be so upset? Shouldn't you think about why, after being.
married for so long, you still don't understand me as well as Scott does?"
She looked at him, even though he was very angry, she still wanted to tell him: "Because in your world, there is no room for me. You don't care about me, nor do you know my preferences. Even my little interests and hobbies are known through others. So you have no right to criticize me!"
He understood Miranda.
But he didn't understand her.
"Nina, anyone is fine, but not him!" Nash's expression turned serious.
Nina stared at his stern face. "What if I do?"
"Then we'll get divorced!"
Nina kept glancing at him as those
words quickly came out of his mouth When she brought up divorce, he could refuse, but when he mentioned it, she didn't even have the right to object.
She felt as if Nash had complete control over her, and she was powerless to resist.
Nina felt both angry and amused, wondering why she ended up in this situation.
A surge of nausea rose up, making her unable to hold back the urge to retch. "Urgh..."
