"The whole thing with Miranda," Nash began, his voice firm, "was because she once saved my life. I owed her a debt of gratitude. I didn't explain before because I didn't want to make things worse, and honestly, I don't need to explain myself to anyone. But now, I'm committed to being with Nina, and I won't tolerate anyone trying to slander or hurt her." He paused, glancing toward Remi. "As for the woman standing here today, she's someone my biological father arranged for me to marry. From the start, I made my feelings clear that I don't love her, and I never intended to marry her."

He continued, "I appreciate your presence at my wedding to Nina, and I welcome it. But if you're here with any other intentions, there's nothing I can do about that."

Nash's tone sharpened. "I've said everything that needed to be said. Anything beyond this is not my concern, and I won't be offering further explanations."

With those final words, he signaled to Quincy, who arrived with security.

Remi's supposed "gift" was unwrapped, revealing a timed bomb.

For James and Felix, seasoned military men, disarming it was second nature. They had faced far worse during their careers, and with their expertise, the bomb was swiftly dismantled.

However, the chaos unsettled the guests, and Quincy had to step in to smooth things over. Despite Nash's efforts to give Nina an unforgettable wedding, it became unforgettable for all the wrong reasons.

Later, in private, Zion and Julia confronted Nash.

Zion's expression was stern and his gaze was filled with anger. "You already made Nina suffer so much. Now, even at her wedding, you've let her down again! Nash, do you think my daughter's life is meant to be filled with nothing but misery?"

Not far off, Pharaoh stood waiting. He had planned to speak with Nash, but seeing Zion and Julia approach first, he held back. His heart ached as he listened to Zion's words.

Pharaoh owed everything to them. Without their care, Nina would not have survived her childhood, let alone grown into the woman she was today.

Nash responded with a heavy heart, "I know this was my mistake. I never wanted Nina to suffer, and I regret my past decisions deeply. But I promise you, from now on, I won't let anything like this happen again. I love Nina, and I will never allow her to be hurt." Ever since his return, Nash had thrown himself into planning the wedding. He wanted everything to be perfect, from the smallest detail to the grandest gesture, and he had personally overseen every aspect. The flowers, all roses, were Nina's favorite, and he made sure there were countless varieties.

Yet despite all his efforts, Remi had disrupted the day he had hoped would be perfect.

Although some of the people who came to the wedding might have been there for personal gain or social status, there were still others who were genuinely there to celebrate. However, in the end, Quincy had to smooth things over with money, leaving Nash feeling deeply disappointed.

Zion, unable to hold back his frustration, pressed Nash harder. "You talk a good game, but what about the truth? You had a fiancée, and you still have a biological father. Does my Nina know about all of this?"

He choked on his words, tears welling up as he continued, "If you're not honest with her, how much more pain will my Nina have to endure?"
