It was as if he had let down his guard in front of her.
She knew it would be like this. His sturdy back also bore wounds, scars crisscrossing it, giving it a fierce appearance, leaving marks of imperfection on that flawless figure.
Nina looked at his broad back, knowing his capacity now to shoulder the responsibilities of the York family, but who would imagine the weight his shoulders bore.
Her hand gently touched his back, causing Nash's body to stiffen for a moment. His gaze deep, he didn't reject her touch, only his hoarse voice telling her, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Each scar pierced Nina's heart. She remained silent, but her fists clenched tightly.
He was unwilling to bring it up, perhaps these scars were memories Nash preferred not to revisit, including the time with her.
Nina pursed her lips, took a few steps back, and withdrew her hand. She realized there were still secrets about Nash she didn't know. She even speculated that he used to be "Zac," not Nash.
Zoe had also mentioned that she disliked Sally, even going as far as to claim that she was the one who raised Nash, implying that Sally had no right to assert dominance in her presence. Clearly, despite being his mother, Sally had never really taken care of him.
It was all too strange. Perhaps Sally simply didn't love her son very much, leaving his childhood less than happy. Looking at it now, Sally cherished her son. Maybe in middle age, she had finally realized it!

Can you add more chapters per day please...
Don't tell me π€― Is Nina pharaoh's daughter?...
Meanwhile why is Nina playing hard to get? What else does she want from the man? I bet if Nash ever declares to kove the baby unconditionally she might soften up but lady just spill the secret he would be overjoyed!...
I see you increased the number of chapters per day by 2, but please can we have like 20 chapters per day? 7 chapters is too little, the suspense is just crazy...
