Hearing this, Nina instinctively clenched her fists and avoided his gaze. She was afraid she was being too self-centered. “You only want to change because you care. Why do you care so much?” Nash looked at her. “You’re my wife.”Nina pursed her lips slightly and poked the tacos with her fork without eating. “Haven’t we already agreed to divorce? Just being your wife isn’t enough of a reason.

she accidentally spilled some sauce from the tacos. The sauce splattered onto her pajamas.Nash quickly grabbed a napkin and wiped it off. “Eat slowly. No one’s going to take it from you.””Okay.”Nina’s long eyelashes fluttered slightly, hiding her inner turmoil.Nash sat beside her, watching her take small bites. Whenever the spice got to her, she would breathe in sharply. He was there, handing her tea and napkins. After she finished eating, Nina felt satisfied but also sleepy. Seeing that Nash had no intention of leaving, she asked, “Aren’t you going home?”Nash replied, “Go rest if you’re tired. I’ll close the door when I leave.”He kept his distance, but he could not stop himself from caring about her.Nina glanced at him. Since moving here, Nash had not been as domineering as before.
