Chapter 30 Miranda stood there, forcing a smile as she turned back, "Zoe, do you have any other business?" Zoe looked at her, "Are you here to buy clothes too? This coat isn't for yourself, is it?" Miranda's face stiffened, "It's for someone else." Zoe saw through it but didn't expose it. With her arms crossed, she spoke coldly, "Miranda, you're a public figure after all. You should know what's right and what's wrong. Just because I don't say anything doesn't mean I agree. I'm just turning a blind eye out of respect for your family's reputation. Don't wait until everything falls apart to regret it. I'm not like Sally, allowing you to do as you please!" Miranda's expression turned ugly, feeling humiliated. Her steps faltered, and her assistant helped her leave.
"Nina, it's rare to meet. Let's go for a drink," Zoe said with a smile.

The two headed to the café.
Though Zoe didn't often involve herself in family matters, she still cared for the young couple. She asked, “It's been three years since you and Nash got married. Aren't you planning to have a baby?" Nina paused, unsure how to respond as she looked at Zoe.
Zoe, however, was hopeful and continued, "Nina, you know I have no children of my own. Nash is like a son to me. I'm eagerly waiting for you two to givea grandchild. My friends, younger than me, already have grandchildren.” Nina sipped her coffee.
She knew Nash's relationship with Zoe was closer than with his own mother, Sally.
The relationships within the York family seem a bit complicated. It's said that Nash didn't grow up in the York family hwhen he was young. It was Zoe who brought him back. Sally didn't seem to care much about him; on the contrary, she's a bit indifferent towards him. The one who truly cared for him was Zoe.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs Nash grew older, Sally started to improve her relationship with him. Nina didn't know whether to mention that she and Nash were almost getting a divorce. She was afraid of saying too much and shattering Zoe's expectations, so she could only say, "Zoe, Nash and I are still young, focusing on our careers. Let's consider this issue again in a few years." She had said the sthing to Sally.
Sally blamed her for not being able to bear children, but she knew deep down that Nash didn't love her and had never touched her. He had always been exploiting her. Zoe, on the other hand, was different; she genuinely cared for her. Nina didn't want to disappoint her either.
Seeing Nina's evasive gaze, Zoe instantly guessed what was going on and asked, Are you and Nash still the sas before? Nina wasn't sure what she meant and replied, "What do you mean by 'the sas before,' Zoe?" "I know how you and Nash got married," Zoe said knowingly, causing Nina to immediately lower her head. "Don't misunderstand," Zoe said, holding her hand warmly. "I never thought you married Nash with any ulterior motives. My father liked you back then, which is why he agreed to your marriage to him. He had foresight, and I also agree with his choice." Her words gave Nina enough confidence. "Zoe, why did Grandpa choose me?" she asked, genuinely puzzled. In reality, she didn't understand. Her father owed money, and their family background was likely not up to the York family's standards. Nash's grandfather paid off their debts and arranged her marriage to Nash. It was like a stroke of luck.
Zoe smiled. "He thought Nash would like you."
"My dad feels a lot of guilt towards m Nash. His wish is simply for Nash to find his own happiness, zoe Paused for a moment, implying, “That's something Miranda can't provide. He won't allow Nash to be with her."
Nina furrowed her brows, not quite understanding the reasons behind it. If Nash's grandfather cherished him so much and gave him everything he had, why would there be guilt? And why wouldn't he allow him to be with Miranda? Yet, she also felt disheartened." I've let Grandpa down," she sighed.
"How could you say that? I think Nash really likes you. At least, he hasn't grown tired of you after m spending so much ttogether," Zbe said, then added with a smirk, "He's just not very smart and doesn't know how to please his wife. Nash has always been a bit dense since he was young, making our Nina suffer. I'll have to enlighten him!" Nina, however, countered, "He isn't unintelligent." Today's Bonus Offer
