As time passed, he became more mature and composed.
Nash noticed her gaze and smirked, “What are you thinking while staring at me like that?” Supporting her chin, Nina, caught off guard, shifted her gaze nervously, “Nothing.”
“You were clearly stealing glances at me just now,” Nash countered.
Nina countered back, “If you didn’t look at m would you know I was stealing glances at your
“Well, I did indeed steal glances at you,” Nash admitted frankly. He couldn’t help but notice her every move unintentionally.
This left Nina unsure of how to respond, feeling her heart pounding rapidly.
Nash sliced the steak and handed it to her, “It’s cut. Go ahead, eat.”
Nina cherished his thoughtful care, feeling warmth in her chest instantly. As long as Nash took a step toward her, she felt the world was a much better place.
She picked up her fork and knife, saying, “Do you know what I was thinking when I was looking at you just now?”

“I was thinking how lucky I’ve been all these years. I’ve never faced much hardship in life or work. Although my family wasn’t wealthy, my parents never let me suffer too much. They even managed to send me to college. After I met you, everything went smoothly. You helped me repay my father’s debts, and I married you without any obstacles. There’s nothing I can’t overcome.

Nina lifted her gaze, locking eyes with Nash, her hands tightly gripping the tablecloth. How did he know?
At that moment, Nina felt a mixture of fear and anticipation, as if her secret was about to be exposed.
Nash’s
s gaze turned icy, like a cold arrow piercing through Nina’s heart, “If you liked him so much, why did you marry me in the first place?”
His words caused Nina’s expression to change. Her hands gradually loosened their grip on the tablecloth, and she even looked a bit distressed, What?” Ads by PubFuture
Nash stood up, “Am I wrong? The person you like is Zac, but you ended up marrying me. He’s your hero, the one you can’t forget.”
Nina felt like a bucket of cold water had been
