Chapter 940
Nina's words were like a sharp dagger, piercing Nash's heart within seconds, leaving it bloodied and full of holes. He knew, however, that Nina was suffering more than he was.
"Nina, please, don't get so worked up. There are things I'll explain to you, but you need to wait a bit longer." Nash took a deep breath, trying to calm her down.
But Nina did not want to hear it. "Nash, I've already waited five years. How much longer do you expect me to wait?"
Before Nash could respond, Nina yelled again, "Are you expecting me to spend my entire life waiting for you? Where is my child?"This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
"Beep, beep beep..."
The phone suddenly emitted a series of busy signals. Nash had hung up.
Regardless of why Nash had hung up, Nina knew that calling back would be pointless. He would either be offline, busy, or simply not answering. But her emotions, already stirred up by Nash, surged into a wave of grief. Clutching her chest, she felt a pain so intense it left her struggling to breathe.
Seeing this, Micah strode over to her. He offered a tissue and placed a comforting hand on her shoulder, gently patting her back. "Nina, we'll get to the bottom of this together. No matter what obstacles you face, my father and I will help you overcome them." They had always been her strongest supporters.
Nina shook her head. "I'll investigate on my own." Wiping away her tears quickly, Nina took a deep breath.
She was a normal person, prone to emotional breakdowns, but she could also regain her composure swiftly. Living amidst the dangers of war had taught her that tears would not solve problems, only action would.
"What can you investigate alone?
Even if you've built a network, we're here with established connections you can use. Why not leverage that?" Micah frowned, then added in a low voice Nina, you understand what I'm saying. It's never too late to turn over a new leaf. Are you really going to wait until our father is gone before forgiving him and me?"
Nina felt a splitting headache, as if her heart were being sliced by a sharp blade: The bonds of family could not be severed, and it would be cruel not to reconcile in time. Yet now she could not forget the past or convince herself to forgive
There were times when the word "brother" was on the tip of her tongue, but she just could not say it.
"I'm leaving for Salterra today," she said, determined.
Micah realized he could not change her mind but suggested, "I'll take you back. We faced danger on the way here, and Seth's remaining followers might retaliate."
"Alright." Nina couldn't refuse.
While Pharaoh had not appeared in front of her, she noticed him silently watching as she left. As she turned her head, she saw Pharaoh smiling at her. Apart from that garden encounter where they spoke the most, she had not exchanged many words with him, nor had he appeared before her again.
From the Pharaoh's perspective, and
considering everything Micah said,
she could understand. Only a father would go to such lengths for his
over
daughter, making significant sacrifices and showing
unconditional love.
