Nina hesitated for a moment. "Aunt Zoe got into trouble because of me. How can I not get involved? I know you want to protect Miranda, but Aunt Zoe has been subjected to so much online abuse. She needs to clear her name. She shouldn't be bullied like this!" "It's not as simple as you think," Nash said with a meaningful tone.
But Nina smiled. "I know it's not simple. Miranda is not a simple person, and if she can do it, others can too. You may not want to help, but I will find a way to help Aunt Zoe." "I didn't say I wouldn't help Zoe," Nash added.
Nina looked at Nash, somewhat incredulous. "Didn't you ask Miranda to move to Riverside Estate? I'll be with Zoe these days. If she has any problems, I'll protect her!" Just now in the hospital room, Nash's words could not have been clearer. Even Zoe was on the verge of severing ties with him.

In that case, she had to prioritize Zoe.
Nash furrowed his brows tightly. Without being entirely sure, he did not want to risk telling her anything prematurely. So he said, "Until things are cleared up, both you and Zoe need to stay safe. Try to avoid going out as much as possible." He did not elaborate further or offer any explanations. Nina felt a surge of frustration and did not want to respond. With a cold expression, she turned and walked away.
Nash watched her leave in frustration and immediately made a phone call to have someone follow them and ensure their safety at all times.
Shortly after, Miranda's luggage was all packed.
"Nash," Miranda called out when she saw him. "We can leave now." As Miranda reached out to hold Nash's hand, he avoided her touch slightly. "I'll have someone escort you there." "Don't you want to cwith me?" Miranda looked puzzled.
Nash wrote, "Sending you to Riverside Estate is for your safety. I have other matters to attend to. If you need anything, you can ask Quincy or the helpers at Riverside Estate." Seeing Nash keeping his distance, Miranda could not help but feel a bit unsettled. Despite being able to go to Riverside Estate and being close to Nash, their relationship did not seem to progress any further.
But she reassured herself that it was still good. Everything would take time.

After Miranda finished speaking,
Nash seemed lost in thought, not really listening. He wrote om meaningfully, "By the way, we've know each other for so long, but I've never met your parents. Are they stiff living abroad?" Miranda's expression stiffened, and she nervously clasped her fingers together.
Nash noticed her subtle movements. "Is it inconvenient to talk about?"
Miranda forced a smile. "They're both abroad. When I went abroad, they naturally moved there too. But I cback here because Xcouldn't leave you behind. Besides, I'm used to the air here." Nash did not press further. He put the lighter away and slipped one hand into his pocket. "Once you're ready, let's go. Quincy is waiting at the door." "Okay." Quincy cin to collect the luggage, and with a nod at Nash, they left.
At this moment, there were still many reporters gathered downstairs.
