Chapter 354
Miranda chuckled again. “Actually, it’s not much of a secret anymore. Nash admitted his marriage a while back, but he didn’t want to tell everyone who his wife is.” “Do you know?” Stella asked.
Miranda replied, “I do know, but Nash doesn’t want me to say. After all, it’s a secret marriage. They’ve been married for so long, so naturally, he doesn’t want everyone to know about the woman.” “Alright, I have to go. I won’t keep you any longer. I’ll treat you to tea when I’m less busy.” With that, Miranda got into her chauffeured car.
Stella was left alone, puzzled for a while.
Before getting into the car, Miranda glanced at Stella and smirked.
“Miranda, why didn’t you assert your dominance? Let others know you’re Mr. York’s sweetheart. They’ll feel the pressure and back off!” Her assistant, Ruby, did not understand why she acted that way. Miranda would not have said something like this before. But she noticed Stella’s keen interest in Nash, which changed things.
Since Stella mentioned being classmates with Nash and had such a deep impression of him despite not spending much time at school, something must have happened between them.
“Stella hasn’t watched my TV dramas,” Miranda said.
“Huh?” Ruby was surprised. “How do you know?”
Miranda’s lips curled slightly as she toyed with her fingers, calculating. “I saw her searching for my dramas on her phone. It’s obvious she did her homework in advance. She’s not my fan at all, yet she’s trying to get close to me, curious about my relationship with Nash. This woman isn’t simple. I don’t want to draw fire to myself. If my guess is correct, she might be able to help me.”
The assistant did not quite understand yet but after some thought, she suddenly got it. “Miranda, you’re really smart!”
After pondering in place for a while, Stella could not sit still anymore. Nash was married? How could this be!
Stella clenched her fists tightly, feeling suffocated, her eyes piercing.
Did he forget their agreement?
She had promised that when she came of age, she would marry him and become his wife. He had clearly agreed.
How could he get married now?
Who was his wife?
Miranda was ambiguous, not explicitly stating who it was, but she mentioned someone who had been with him for a long time.
Who had been by Nash’s side for a long time?
Stella suddenly realized that Nash’s relationship with Nina seemed different. Wasn’t Nina the person who had been by Nash’s side the longest?
She understood now. Stella’s eyes gleamed with a hint of malice.
“Stella.” Her friend, seeing her ominous gaze, felt a bit scared. “Are you okay?”
Stella quickly masked her emotions and said in a friendly tone, “I’m fine. We still have shopping to do. Let’s get in the car. I bought you that limited edition bag you like.” “Really?” Her friend, initially worried, became excited again upon hearing about the bag. “Stella, you’re so kind! I love you!”
Stella smiled and said, “As long as you’re happy. Money is no big deal when it comes to your happiness.”
Her friend was immediately won over by her generosity and hugged her tightly. “Stella, you’re my best friend.”
Stella smiled, but her eyes were icy cold.
Nash purposely left the office ten minutes early. He had a date with Nina.
These past few days, he had carefully considered the distance between him and Nina. He even watched videos online about maintaining a marriage.
Nina wanting a divorce might be because their marriage lacked romance, or she could not feel the usual affection between husband and wife.
He understood. After all, he was busy with work. In the three years of their marriage, he had never taken her out to dinner or prepared gifts for her.
She did not feel valued and could not experience the happiness of being Mrs. York. Naturally, she wanted to leave him.
If he let her experience the feeling of being in love and being happy, she probably would not want to leave him.
