Chapter 86
The person on the other end hesitated for a moment. "Someone did see Nina in the office, but no one was keeping watch, so we can't guarantee she was there the whole time." It was a mystery.
He had once questioned Nina's suspicion.
In his memory, Nina had always maintained her boundaries with him, never making any mistakes, so he didn't have too many doubts.
Recalling the moment, Nina seemed quite flustered.
She was the only woman who could get close to him.
But he was certain it couldn't have been Miranda.
Nash hung up the phone, shut down the computer, and left the study.
In the bedroom, the lights were on, but Nina wasn't inside.
Even her phone was left on the bed.
He searched around but didn't find her, then asked the helper, "Where is Nina?"
The helper replied, "Mrs. York was seen going downstairs just now."
Nina was nowhere to be found in the villa, and she hadn't taken her phone, which worried Nash. He quickly made a call, "Nina's missing, find her!"
Nina woke up and her head was still spinning. As she took in her surroundings, she realized she was in the hospital.
Struggling to sit up, she found no one beside her.
"Miss, you're awake," the nurse came in.
Nina looked at her, her voice hoarse and weak, "What's wrong with me?"
The nurse explained, "You collapsed on the roadside, and a kind-hearted person brought you to the hospital. How could a young lady like you be out so late at night without a phone? If it weren't for that person finding you, you might have frozen to death on the street."
Only then did Nina recall what had happened yesterday, a bitter smile tugging at the corners of her lips.
"You fainted due to low blood sugar, and we haven't completed your admission yet. Notify
your family and complete the admission procedures," the nurse reminded her again.
Family?
Notifying her parents would only worry them.
Nash...
Nina hesitated to tell him, aware that any improvements were mere illusions before the storm.
"How much will it cost?" Nina's face paled. "Can I check out of the hospital?"
Then
occupied with changing her IV bag, replied, "What's the matter? You're penniless
at the moment. Besides informing your family, what else can you do?"
Nina lowered her gaze. "I don't have any family."
The nurse looked at her attire and said, "You must have some difficulty to speak of. You don't look like someone without family."
Nina fell silent..
"You should still notify your family quickly. You need someone to accompany you in your current state." The nurse didn't dare leave her alone, fearing she might faint again and not be as lucky as she was now. Nina evaded, "I really don't have any family."
The nurse still didn't believe her. "How can you possibly have no family? You need to notify your family members immediately..."
"What's going on here?" Caleb noticed the dispute and came over to take a look.
With the hospital beds occupied and Nina having been brought here by a kind individual, she lay on a temporary bed in the corridor.
"Dr. Smith, this young lady is unwell but refuses to notify her family," the nurse exclaimed in
frustration.
"Nina." Caleb saw it was Nina and was momentarily stunned.
Nina looked up, wishing she could bury her head and pretend she hadn't seen him.
"Dr. Smith, do you know her?" the nurse asked.
Caleb told the nurse, "You can leave. I'll take care of things here."
The nurse breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness you know her. I'll attend to other
matters."
Seeing her like this, Caleb asked with concern, "Nina, did you have a fight with Nash?" Nina replied, "No."© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
It didn't look like it at all, no matter how you looked at it.
