Julia glanced at Nash, her warmth now replaced with a distant politeness. "No need, you're a guest, just sit there."
Before, Julia used to like Nash quite a bit. Love begets love. But after all the facade shattered, she had regrets, yet she did not want to blame them. Their marriage was their business. If they were divorcing, she could not treat him the same as before.
Now, when Nash came to their home, he could only be treated as a guest. No more favors. Nash knew it would come to this and his image in their hearts had taken a big hit. He wanted to redeem himself, especially in front of Nina's parents.
"It's no trouble to lend a hand when I’m idle," Nash persisted despite Julia's standoffishness, taking the initiative to help her.
Julia wanted to refuse, but Nash had already walked into the kitchen, just as he used to, understanding her hardships and volunteering to help. Julia sighed inwardly as she watched him.
Before, she used to be happy. She only had Nina as her daughter. No matter how high her husband's status was, he could humble himself in front of her family, showing that he cared deeply for her.
That was what she used to think, that her beloved daughter was loved, and she could finally rest easy. But it was all a facade.
Julia did not say anything and followed Nash.
Nina could still notice the subtle shifts in her parents' demeanor. Despite their polite facade, she could tell they still harbored reservations about her marriage to Nash.
Her father always had concerns, but her mother's disappointment would be more palpable. She thought her daughter had found a good match, only to be disappointed.
"Nina," Eve called Nina several times.
Nina turned around. "Yeah, what's up?" she asked.
"I've been calling you several times. Why aren't you responding?"

Can you add more chapters per day please...
Don't tell me 🤯 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...
