That person resembled someone she knew. She didn't want to make assumptions, but she desired to approach and gain clarity. As she drew closer to the roadside, someone seized her hand. "Nina, please forgive me this time. I promise not to harm you again. I realize I was wrong!" Lily was terrified of being apprehended by the police and ending up in jail. If Nina pardoned her, she could avoid that fate. So, she pleaded with her.

"Let go of me." Nina still yearned to pursue the person who was moving further away. She shook off Lily's grasp.

Lily clung tightly, tears welling in her eyes. "Even if you don't care about me, at least consider your uncle and the Walker family. If we both land in trouble, what will your uncle do?"

"Nina!" Sue knelt in front of Nina. "Please forgive me. I haven't graduated yet, and I don't want to go to jail. I'm about to start an internship, and no company will want me in this situation. I don't want to be looked down upon. I'm your cousin. Can't you release me from my responsibility?"

"I'm begging you!" Both of them restrained Nina, preventing her from moving forward.

Nina was unable to break free from their grasp and watched helplessly as the person she was chasing disappeared into the distance. She found herself standing beside a busy road, with traffic whizzing by and the cold wind stinging her face. Ignoring her surroundings, she shouted sternly, "Let go of me, now!"

Just as she shouted, she heard a squeak -

"Nina!"

As they continued to pull and tug, with neither side gaining any ground, Nina suddenly found herself being pushed out.

At that very moment, a car approached, unable to brake in time.

Nina could only watch in horror as the car rushed towards her, its speed making her feel as though her fate was sealed.

But then, in a stroke of luck, a hand swiftly grabbed hold of hers, wrapping around her waist and pulling her back from the brink of danger. The two of them tumbled to the ground, rolling over several times.

Although Nina didn't feel any pain, she heard a muffled groan that jolted her back to reality. Opening her eyes, she saw Nash in front of her.

She hadn't even realized when he had arrived.

Upon seeing Nash's pale face, Nina instinctively asked, "Where does it hurt?"

Nash remained silent, his brows

furrowed tightly. He had been occupied when he heard about a

broadcast happening at the company's entrance, involving Nina. Without hesitation, he rushed over to assess the situation.

When he arrived, he found Nina stumbling by the roadside, appearing as if she were being held against her will. Concerned for her safety with the heavy flow of traffic, he feared the worst. Fortunately, he made it just in time.

Yet, Nina had a sense that

something was amiss. She quickly pulled away from his embrace,

his body, only to discover a dampness on her hand. Panic washed over her as she examined her hand-stained with crimson blood!

She hurriedly assisted Nash to his feet. "You're bleeding, we need help!"

Colleagues from the company also rushed out. Witnessing Nash's injuries, they became frantic, shouting, "Someone get Mr. York to the hospital!"

Nina wasn't certain where Nash was bleeding from, but she could sense his pain. Initially, she believed it was his injured hand that was bleeding, yet she soon discovered that the source was his back. A nail pierced his back with vicious force.

Nina couldn't bear to imagine the consequences if Nash hadn't shielded her in time. That nail could have penetrated her skull, ending her life.

Lily and Sue were overcome with terror. Witnessing Nash's bleeding, they understood they couldn't escape the consequences. Lily stammered, "Nina, I didn't mean it, I didn't expect..."

"Enough!" Nina interrupted sternly. "Just stay silent, both of you, and don't cause any more trouble. If you keep your mouths shut, there won't be any complications!"

At her command, they both dared not even breathe.

As the car approached, they hastily placed Nash inside and raced to the hospital.
