She looked up to see Miranda wearing an apron, holding a ladle.

Upon seeing Nina, her smile faltered for a moment, then she warmly greeted, “Are you Sally’s guest? I just made some extra soup. Come in and have a seat.”

Her demeanor was composed, entirely that of the lady of the house. It was as if Nina was the guest from afar.

Indeed, before long, she would become an outsider.

Nina frowned, feeling deeply repelled. When she married Nash, Miranda even sent a congratulatory letter. It was impossible for her not to know Nina was Nash’s wife.

Seeing her standing motionless at the door, Miranda quickly came over and took her hand, “A guest is a guest, don’t be shy, come in.”

As she approached, a faint jasmine scent filled the air, the exact same fragrance of the perfume Nash gave her on her birthday last year. She felt her throat ache, and her breathing became heavy, as if there were a thousand pounds on her feet, making it difficult to move.

Sally noticed Nina standing there motionless, her brows furrowed in displeasure. “Nina, why are you just standing there? We have guests at home. Can’t you even pour a cup of tea?”

Nina glanced at her, aware she shouldn’t argue, but still inquired, “Mom, why is she coming to our house?”

Sally responded, “Miranda is back in the country, so naturally, she wants to come see me. What, you don’t want her to come to our house? Besides, I’ve already asked for Nash’s opinion, and he didn’t say anything. What’s the fuss about?”

“I didn’t mean that.” Nina lowered her head.

“So it’s Nina! When Nash got married, he didn’t show me your picture, so I didn’t recognize you for a moment. Please don’t be angry.”
