The crowd instantly fell silent, their attention drawn to the voice''s source. A few cars were parked in the background, and a tall, noticeable figure approached.


    He wore a ck-grey suit and had a stern demeanor. His sharp, serious eyes emitted an aloof aura, causing people to be cautious yet respectful, keeping their distance. They made way for him as he walked through.


    Nina turned around, feeling somewhat startled. How had he also ended up here? The tension eased as she released the water hose from her grip.


    After a few seconds of silence, someone angrily questioned, "Who do you think you are, interfering in the Walker family''s business?"


    Nash''s piercing gaze fixated on the individual, who felt a shiver run down their spine under the pressure. Nash''s voice turned cold as he replied, "I am Nina''s husband. Do you think I have the rights to speak?" "Husband?" they eximed in astonishment, curiosity piqued.


    "That means hees from a wealthy family." Numerous luxury cars were parked at the entrance, recognizable brands seldom seen in real life. They knew he held a high status.


    They had only heard rumors before, but now they truly understood that Nina had married into a wealthy family.


    "No wonder there are so many cars parked. The disy when wealthy families go out is always this grand!" They curiously gazed at the cars outside.


    Nash approached Nina. "How did youe here?" Nina hadn''t seen Nash for several days; she hade with her parents.


    Like in previous years during festivals and holidays, she would be with her parents, while Nash wouldn''t be around. Their marriage was kept secret, so she didn''t differ much from being single. They each lived their own lives. He had never visited her hometown before, and she hadn''t expected him toe.


    "I came because it''s customary to attend the funeral when you return to your hometown. Is there a problem?" Nash asked.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Nina pursed her lips. "No problem."


    Seeing them gathering around,


    looking like they were about to bully


    someone Nash asserted with


    authority. "This is a society governed byw It''s best for all of you to disperse now! If you don''t, we''ll have to handle it privately!"


    He had over ten men under hismand, all skilled fighters. If things turned physical, they wouldn''t stand a chance.


    Considering Nash''s formidable reputation and influential allies, they knew better than to confront him directly. Some questioned, "Is violence the only solution now that there''s now left?" Nash''s piercing gaze andposed voice interrupted, "If we handle it with violence, will you still be standing here spouting nonsense?"


    The person in question fell silent immediately, his heart filled with a hint of fear.


    Quincy, standing nearby, cleared his throat and spoke up, "Nina is innocent. You don''t know the whole story, yet you blindly believe others instead of trusting the police? She stands here unashamed, with a clear conscience. It is you who allow yourselves to be manipted..."


    Quincy lectured them, presenting facts, evidence, and logical reasoning in an attempt to dispel their misconceptions. Those easily swayed by others'' opinions found his words resonating with them.


    However, Lily and Sue remained


    silent, their hearts brimming with resentment. They held deep hatred towards Nina and wished ill upon her. Nash''s interference and the change in their rtives'' attitudes did not sit well with them, but they were powerless to do anything.


    Nina settled her parents and stayed in the house where her grandparents lived.
