Chapter 51
Zoe was greatly surprised, left only with anger and disappointment. At that moment, Nash emerged from the hospital room and spotted Zoe with Nina. He politely called out, "Aunt Zoe."
"Don't call me that!" Zoe's temper flared as she launched into a tirade against Nash. "Do you still see me as your aunt? How could you not discuss. something as significant as divorcing Nina with me? Have you forgotten Grandpa's advice to take care of Nina? Is this how you take care of her? Nash, I've watched you grow up. How could I not know you're so irresponsible, wanting a divorce? You're completely disregarding the marital bond for this mistress pretending to be sick in bed!"
"Zoe, mind your words. What mistress? What irresponsibility? Can you not drag this into the conversation?" It was the first time Sally stood up to Zoe upon hearing her harsh words. "If Nash wants a divorce, it's their business. What does it have to do with you? You're just using your seniority to reprimand my son like this!"
Nina hadn't expected this outcome, causing them to quarrel. She hurried over to try and stop Zoe, not wanting people to see a joke.
But it wasn't just about their divorce; it was about Zoe having a dislike for Sally, disdainfully sneering, "I'm talking to my nephew. What business is it of yours, Sally? What right do you have to speak to me? "Zoe, you're going too far!" Sally retorted.
Zoe didn't like Sally. Sally didn't like Zoe. Whenever they met, they exchanged few words, akin to strangers.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Zoe looked down on Sally, speaking sharply as she approached, "It's me advising you not to go too far! As a mother, your contribution to Nash is evident. I need not say more. Here, everyone's words carry weight, except for you, Sally. I'm rebuking my nephew, and you have no business interfering!"
Nash's childhood, Sally hadn't been much involved. She knew she was in the wrong but wasn't willing to give in. "Nash, just look at your aunt, daring to scold me like this. What kind of example is she setting? Speak up. This family isn't just hers!"
As they argued vehemently, Nash furrowed his brow and interjected coldly, "I didn't agree to divorce. This marriage isn't ending."
Their dispute fell into silence at Nash's declaration.
Zoe couldn't grasp the situation. "What do you mean?" she asked.
Sally also inquired, "Nash, you don't want a divorce?"
At this point, Nina intervened, "I initiated it."
They couldn't imagine that Nina would be the one to bring up divorce
first. Zoe pursed her lips, unable accept it even if it was Nina's idea.
"No, I don't agree!"
Nina hadn't anticipated things escalating to this point, disappointing Zoe in the process. "Zoe..."
Zoe didn't want to hear it, turning to Nash. "Deal with your wife. Make her change her mind!"
Zoe didn't blame Nina; as a woman, she could empathize.
They had been married for so long, yet Nash
showed her no warmth or affection. Even the
naet
no
coldest stone should have warmed up by now but her nephew had sense of compassion. No wonder Nina
was disappointed.

Zoe wouldn't press Nina further because she could tell that Nina
cared deeply for Nash. The monet
one cared, the more disappointment they felt.
As the tension eased, Zoe simmered down while Sally went to tend to Miranda's needs.
"You've told Zoe?" Nash asked Nina.
