Chapter CHAPTER 167



Sally gazed at Nash, lying in the hospital bed, his complexion looking poor. It was clear that his interest in this girl indicated that he still had lingering feelings for Miranda. This realization made things simpler. Linda’s thoughts were consumed by Nash. She suggested to Sally, “No one is taking care of Nash here. Why don’t I take care of him?”

Sally immediately dismissed the idea, concerned for Linda’s well-being. “You can’t do that,” she objected. “You’re pregnant, and you need to be cautious. Come back to the York residence with me. Nash has plenty of people to look after him. Take care of yourself.”

Despite her strong desire to stay and care for Nash, Linda couldn’t argue with Sally’s reasoning. She could only respond, “Okay.”

Reluctantly, Linda’s eyes lingered on Nash. She held onto the hope that once he recovered, he would return home, and they would be able to spend more time together.

Sally was worried about Miranda. With Nash injured, and his relationship with Nina in shambles, this was Miranda’s chance to step in. In Sally’s eyes, Miranda was the only daughter-in-law that mattered. She quickly messaged Miranda: “Miranda, Nash is injured. Come right away.”

At that moment, Miranda was getting ready on set. She had a scene to shoot in half an hour. It was a play directed by a famous director. Although Miranda wasn’t the lead, she played the second female lead, a role even better than the main female character.

Nash had fought for her to get this role. If the play was successful, it would be a huge hit, and she would have no shortage of roles in the future.

Success was within reach, and Miranda remained focused and worked hard to complete the filming, not dwelling on romantic relationships. If she could just get through this, she would soon be standing side by side with Nash.

She refrained from probing for information. If Nash had gone this far for her, there must still be a place for her in his heart. What else couldn’t wait a little longer?

Just then, she received a message from Sally.

Upon reading the message, Miranda’s reaction was immediate and intense. She abruptly stood up, causing the makeup artist who was working on her eyebrows to almost make a mistake.

Her assistant reminded her, “Miranda, what’s the matter? You’re currently in the process of having your makeup done.”

Miranda sat back down, her expression becoming serious as she tightly grasped her phone. She was filled with anxiety. “Nash is injured and he needs someone to take care of him. I have to go look after him.”

The assistant-exclaimed, “Miranda,

you’re in the middle of filming right now. If you leave to take care of Mr. York, how will the shoot continue?

This is the opportunity you’ve be

waiting for. Penelope and the others are watching. You can’t act impulsively!”

So Miranda found herself torn. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If she dropped everything to care for Nash, maybe he would see her in a different way. She had already missed one chance and didn’t want to miss another.

Everything she was doing that day was for one purpose: to win back Nash’s love. She wanted him to know that she was the only one qualified to stand by his side.

“No, I still need to go to the hospital,” Miranda said, standing up. She no longer had any interest in filming. “Ruby, please inform the director that there’s an emergency. I need to go to the hospital. Ask him to postpone shooting for a day.”

Miranda was determined. “We can film the scenes at any time, but Nash has helped me so many times. I have to show him my worth. I must go to the hospital to take care of him!”

The assistant hesitated, then spoke up, “Miranda…”

After an hour of applying makeup, she wiped it all off in an instant.

The director happened to see and shouted, “Miranda, what are you doing? We’re about to start shooting, and you’ve removed all your makeup!”
