Chapter 235
Nash's dark eyes were tinged with a chill. "Where did you find this person?"
She had found someone so quickly. Next it was time for her to leave him. He had not even agreed, yet she had arranged everything so confidently! Nina pushed him, her hand moving involuntarily. "It was a normal recruitment process, Nash. Did not you admire her?"
"If you don't want to work, I'll allow you to resign. You can just focus on being Mrs. York at home," Nash's voice was low and chilling. With a slight pressure from his hand, Nina was forced to look up, and in that moment, their eyes met.
Nina frowned. "Why? Do you think I don't want to work and just want to be Mrs. York at home? Have you forgotten what you said when we got married? Know your place, don't overstep boundaries. When the three-year deadline is up, we'll divorce! Why are you so unwilling to divorce me?"
"Shut up!" Nash clenched his teeth, barely containing his patience. He did not want to hear the word "divorce" again.
Nina did not want to argue with him. She only did what was expected of her. "Fine, Nash, it's work hours now. If there's nothing else, I'll go back to my desk. I haven't been feeling well lately. If there are any events to attend, call Serene."
She needed to create some distance from him now. With this kind of separation, fewer conflicts would arise. Once Nash got used to it all, he would not see her leaving as a problem.
Nash did not release her. A cold smirk played at the corners of his mouth. "So, should I thank you for arranging everything so well for me?"
Nina did not want to argue with him. "Nash, I'm your secretary. These are just my duties."
"Am I supposed to embarrass myself with a newcomer?" Nash's brows furrowed and his face full of suspicion.
Nina followed his lead. "Then I'll take her over to familiarize herself with the scene. But you need to tell me, how long do you expect me to stay?"
"It's not about how long I need, it's about how long this person you brought in needs," Nash replied coldly.
"Understood." Nina responded calmly, her whole demeanor quiet, no longer causing a scene.
"Leave!" Nash let go of her and turned his back to her. He was afraid that if he looked at her any longer, he would strangle her.
"Okay." Nina replied softly and went outside.
When Serene saw Nina emerge, she approached with two documents in hand and inquired. Serene swiftly grasped their contents.
The Harris Corporation's banquet was held at a luxury hotel in the city. Guests were dressed in fine clothes, toasting and mingling amidst the shimmering stars.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Beside Nash were Nina, Quincy, and
the newcomer Serene. Nina and Quincy as Nash's right-hand men, were well-known in the circle. Seeing the new face of Serene, there were murmurs in private.
"Nash rarely associates with the opposite sex, but now he's bringing in a new person. He must be grooming someone new. So, is Nina stepping down?"
"She's been by Nash's side for a long time. Could she be Nash's secret lover? Is she pregnant?"
"If that's the case, Nina is definitely the most inspiring person. What a rise! Compared to being a secretary, being a pampered wife is much better. Even if they split up, Nash would compensate her adequately!"
"It may not be as good as you think Is it possible that Nina has offended Nash and been kicked out? In elite circles, it's always about seeing new faces and forgetting old ones!"
