She smirked slightly, a cold smile playing on her lips, as she looked into Nash's icy gaze. She told herself it did not matter. After all, she had also benefited from this marriage.

But deep down, she was deeply hurt, realizing she was just a tool for Nash. Some things could be left unsaid, and she did not need to dwell on them. After all, she had also gained advantages from it. It was no necessary for her to bring the embarrassment to the surface.

Nash furrowed his brows, his tone icy. "When did you find out?"

"Does it matter?" Nina replied coldly. "Just know that I know everything, and I don't want to continue this marriage anymore."

Nash's expression turned cold as he tightly grabbed her hand, his voice harsh. "What if I don't want to?"

"Don't want to? Who are you to decide?" Nina's emotions surged. "These are your rules of the game. I followed them, completed the task, and now you should let me go. Nash, I'm not playing with you anymore, and you shouldn't play with me either!"

"Then you should know, I call the shots," Nash's gaze turned cold, his words cruel. "Behave yourself, and maybe you'll get what you want. But if you don't..."

"Nash, I don't love you!" Nina cut him off, staring defiantly into his eyes. "I've never loved you. I don't want to play along anymore. My youth can't be wasted on you. I want freedom, liberation, I want... ugh..." Listening to her, Nash's expression darkened, and he angrily kissed her lips. He did not want to hear her say those things. He wanted her to be completely devoted to him!

At least for now, he needed Nina to be by his side wholeheartedly. Just like before. Being his secretary, understanding his preferences, knowing him, and making things easier for him.

Nina had always made him feel comfortable. Perhaps they had a special understanding. If it were someone else, they could not achieve what Nina did. He did not want to lose this sense of comfort. But now, Nina wanted to escape and she did not want to be by his side anymore. However, he would not allow it!

His kiss was fervent and suffocating, almost causing Nina to lose her breath. She struggled, wanting to break free from his restraint. She realized Nash had changed, becoming somewhat frightening, just like last time, wanting to gradually confine her, to cage her and to make her a captive bird.

She had dignity. She could not be a captive bird. She wanted to break free from this confinement. "Let go... of me..." Nina struggled desperately. The more she resisted, the more Nash wanted to confine her, to restrain her hands, pressing them onto the table. Everything on the table was knocked over by Nash.

"Ah." Nina's mouth stung for a moment, unable to help but cry out. A taste of blood spread in her mouth.

"Does it hurt?" Nash panted, whispering lowly in her ear, "Remember this pain, see if you dare next time."

With her hair in disarray and her eyes damp, Nina felt both bullied and a little indignant. Refusing to show weakness, she exclaimed, "Nash, you're such a jerk, you... um..."

She wanted to let loose a string of curses. Though unable to physically confront him, she still needed an outlet for her frustration. Yet, her moans escaped involuntarily from her lips.

Nash could not help but let out a light chuckle in response. "Nina, as tough as you talk, your body tells the truth!"

Tears rolled down Nina's cheeks, feeling a mix of shame and yet wanting to provoke him. "Don't you think you're great? This is just a normal physiological response. Any man can... ah." She trailed off with a gasp.
