Nash's expression changed, and he added coldly, "Soon to be ex-wife!"

The doctor was momentarily taken aback by their responses but quickly continued, "The patient has a mild concussion and a fractured hand. She will recover with some rest. There's no need to worry too much."

Nina was relieved and immediately said, "Thank you, doctor."

Nash stayed by her side. No one else was in the room to avoid disturbing the patient's rest.
