Chapter 1163
At the thought of her situation, Yvonne's eyes dimmed.
Noticing her change in mood, Nina quickly sat down beside her, holding her hand for comfort. "It's okay. Whatever happened before is in the past. You can go wherever you want, and I'll help you."
After what had happened to Yvonne, Nina had spent a lot of time reflecting. She realized that Yvonne's sudden request for money must have meant something was seriously wrong. And as Yvonne's only friend, Nina knew she was the only one who could help her. Once Nina came to that realization, she made a decision. Whatever Yvonne needed after waking up, she would agree to it, no questions asked. If Yvonne wanted to leave, then she would make it happen.
Without wasting any time, Nina spotted a wheelchair and helped Yvonne into it, pushing her out of the hospital room.
"Where are you two going?" Nash asked, surprised. He noticed that Yvonne had woken up, but it seemed they were leaving in a hurry.
"Yvonne wants to leave, and I promised her we'd go now. Not a moment to waste," Nina said, grabbing Nash's hand and pleading, "You'll support me, right?"
Nash gently rubbed her head, smiling. "Of course I support you. But if we're taking her out of here, we at least need to inform the hospital. I'll go speak to Caleb and handle the discharge. You take her downstairs." Though everything that had happened with Yvonne was serious, Nash didn't believe leaving the hospital would make things worse.
As he watched Nina and Yvonne head into the elevator, Nash went to find Caleb. The discharge was processed quickly, and the three of them left the hospital soon after.
Yvonne breathed a sigh of relief, a faint smile appearing on her face.
Seeing her friend's smile, Nina's heart filled with joy, and she held Yvonne's hand. "We'll head to my place first. You can change clothes, have something to eat, and then we'll take you to the airport later tonight." "Thank you, Nina. I'm so lucky to have met you," Yvonne said, pulling Nina into a big hug. She wanted to say more, but their car suddenly jolted as Nash slammed on the brakes.
Yvonne instinctively shielded Nina. "Nash, don't you know Nina's pregnant? What's going on?" she asked, confused.
Before Nash could answer, Yvonne saw Joe stepping out of the car in front of them. Her body started trembling with fear.
Nina hugged Yvonne tightly. "It's okay, Yvonne. We won't let him get to you."
She turned to Nash and urged him to drive, but it was too late. Joe had blocked them in with three

cars one in front, one on the left, and one behind them.
There was no way out.
Knock, knock.
Joe tapped on the window, motioning for them to step out of the car.
"I'm not getting out, Nina. I want to leave. I need to leave right now," Yvonne said, panicking, unable to even look at Joe.
Nina hesitated, but then Joe
smashed the passenger-side
window and issued a threat. "If you don't want anything to happen to the baby, you'll get out of the car now."

"Joe, you think you can scare us with threats? It's broad daylight. I don't believe you'd dare harm us," Nina shot back, unafraid.
Joe smirked. "You may not believe me, Mrs. York, but what about Mr. York? Is he willing to gamble with the lives of his wife and child?" Joe's cold gaze shifted to Nash.
Nash knew he couldn't risk Nina or the baby, but Yvonne was just as important to Nina. He was caught between a rock and a hard place.
"Don't worry. I won't hurt Yvonne,"
Joe said, softening his tone. "I'm happy to hear she's awake, but the
fact that you're trying to take her away like this. It's making me angry."

Joe turned to Yvonne. "Come out. Let me talk to you for a moment. If you still want to leave with them after that, I won't stop you."
"Really?" Yvonne asked, unsure but not wanting to put Nina in harm's way. Joe's offer of a simple conversation tempted her.
