Chapter 749
In that moment, Nash's face flashed in her mind, and her heart ached intensely.
But then she suddenly thought of their dead child, a child she never even got to see...
There were some things she could not think about, because once she did, she could not control her emotions.
"I need to go to the restroom," Nina said.
Standing next to her, Penelope immediately noticed something was wrong. She saw the redness in Nina's eyes and followed her. Penelope found Nina leaning on the sink, silently crying. It was as if an invisible hand was gripping her heart, and Penelope felt it too. "Nina..." Penelope walked over.
Nina did not expect her to follow. She had thought she could control her emotions, but now she could not hold back anymore.
"Penelope, I have fame and fortune now, and you're all celebrating with me. I know I should be happy. But I can't. I feel so empty, so hollow..." She pointed to her heart as she spoke.
Anyone who saw Nina and Nash's interactions would have said they were a loving couple. But now Nash was gone, vanished without a trace.
What Penelope did not know was
that Nina did not just feel the loss of Nash. Scott had gone to find a cure for her and was still missing. Wilfred was nowhere to be found. And even the child she carried for ten months was gone.
It was not just emptiness. It was a numbness, a sense of suffocation, not knowing what to do but unable to die. Every day felt stifling.
Penelope patted her shoulder and
said hoarsely Nina, what you have now is something many people can only dream of. You need to
understand that some people leave, but it's not forever. Mr. York. he'll come back to you once everything is settled."
Penelope could only comfort her this way. The fact that Nash had given everything to Nina already said a lot.
Nash cared deeply for her, loved her enough to risk his life. He would finish what he needed to do and return to her. They would live happily together, and they could have more children in the future. Nina and Nash were a perfect match, and their children would surely be exceptional. It was just a pity about the child they had already lost.
Nina let out a bitter laugh. Everyone saw her current status and thought she had surpassed many, with wealth and status.
They believed Nash would return. But what she wanted wasn't money or status, nor for Nash to leave and come back. What she always wanted was simple.
She wanted them to face everything together, no matter what.
"He thinks giving me all these things is a form of assurance. But if he doesn't come back, or if we're separated, what good are they? Will I still be happy?"
She thought to herself, "Material possessions are fleeting. You can't take them with you when you die. It's emotions and relationships that matter most. Isn't life supported by love from family, friends, and partners?"
Penelope patted her shoulder again
