NovelEnglish"That's it? You're just giving up?" Nina's mind was racing, but deep down, she was anxious.
She was worried the woman would keep pursuing Nash. It wasn't men's wandering hearts that scared her, it was when other women got serious. No man could resist temptation when it's served to him on a silver platter. "Nash, consider yourself lucky," Nina muttered under her breath.
Suddenly, someone blocked her path. She looked up, locking eyes with Nash, his gaze filled with tenderness.
"Aren't there other women looking for you? Why aren't you with them? Go on, make them happy, so..." "Then I'll go." Nina grabbed his arm. "Don't you dare." Taking advantage of the moment, Nash stole a quick kiss, grinning mischievously. "I wouldn't dare, and I won't. You and Orion are all I need." Reassured by his words, Nina's face lit up with joy.

Nash hailed a cab and took Nina to a hotel. Yes, he had planned for them not to go htonight.
The holiday of love always felt warmer and more romantic than other celebrations, with the young reveling in the moment and the old reminiscing about the past.
As the night passed and morning arrived, Nina groggily woke up, her mind still replaying the events of last night's wild moments.
She shook her head, trying to clear her thoughts and regain her composure. Then she noticed the time. She had missed the window to take Orion to school! In a rush, Nina threw on sclothes, leaving Nash still asleep in bed, and dashed downstairs.
"Darling, why are you in such a rush? Were you worried because you couldn't find me?" Zoe hugged Nina.
Nina stood there confused while Zoe whispered urgently, "This time, I really need your help." Nina followed Zoe's gaze and saw a young man by the window, staring at them.
"What's going on?" Nina asked.
"That's Michael. We met at an event months ago, and he's been trying to askout ever since. I didn't agree to meet him last night, so this morning he..." Before Zoe could finish, Michael was already approaching.
He gave Nina a quick once-over, frowning slightly. "Zoe, is this the girlfriend you've been talking about?" Zoe nodded seriously, wrapping her arm around Nina. "Why, does it seem unlikely? Lots of people say we look like a married couple." Nina felt a pang of frustration. Zoe seemed desperate enough to pull out the "pretend we're a couple" card. Wasn't she worried this could ruin her chances of getting married later? "Hello, I'm Zoe's admirer, Michael. She toldyou two are together, but it doesn't seem that way to me." He was testing the waters.

Suddenly, an idea struck her. Nina blinked a few times, and tears began to fall. "Darling, last night you said you'd only love me. And now, first thing in the morning, you're meeting someone else? Were you lying to me?"
"Of course not! How could I lie to you?" Zoe was panicking on them inside. She She had no experience in this kind of situation and had no idea how to play the part of a girlfriend. Nina cupped Zoe's face in her
hands, making her look into her eyes. "Then swear tothat you love only me. And promiseyou'll cut ties with him. No more meetings, no more business, nothing! Before she could finish her sentence, tears were streaming down her face. Even Michael, as a grown man, couldn't help but feel a pang of pity.
Seeing his reaction, Zoe turned to Michael and said seriously, "Mr. Michael, as you can see, my girlfriend is very upset because of you think it's best if we don't see each other anymore."
