Chapter 45
His words were firm, carrying his possessiveness.
How could he not see that this guy named Scott liked Nina? He always appeared in front of her.
Then he should let Scott know that he had no chance.
Scott looked directly at Nash, and their gazes became heavy in the air. After a stalemate for a while, Scott spoke, "Mr. York, you're speaking too soon."
He remained composed, not angry, taking a sip of water before saying meaningfully, "Nobody can predict the future. When fate arrives, nothing can. stop it."
Listening to this, Nash was displeased, but he instinctively held Nina's hand.
Nina also sensed his mood. Since Scott arrived, he had been acting strange, seemingly targeting him. at every turn.
However, Nina was rational and didn't act
impulsively. She withdrew her hand and eased the tension, "What are you all talking about? It was fine before, but now it's all about me. Mom, help Dad go rest. He's had too much to drink and might start saying nonsense again."
"Alright." Julia also felt awkward, "Zion, go get some rest and sleep off the alcohol."

Zion complied obediently, but his gaze lingered on Scott, still showing his approval, "Scott, I have high hopes for you. Let's have a drink together another time, and have a good one."
"Sure." Scott replied politely, standing up to acknowledge Zion's words.
Zion was assisted inside by Julia.
Nash remained cold-faced, unmoving.
At the dinner table, only the three of them remained.
Suddenly, it became quiet.
This made Nina uncomfortable, sensing the tension
between them.
Scott, however, paid no mind to Nash's gaze, gently saying to Nina, "You didn't eat much just now, did you have trouble reaching these dishes?"
He smoothly helped Nina pick up some food.
Nash quickly intercepted, "No need, she doesn't like it!"
Scott looked up at Nash, sensing his hostility, but smiled and said, "Mr. York, I know you're Nina's boss, but isn't this unnecessary to interfere with? The dishes I'm picking are the ones Nina likes, all placed on my side. I'm just concerned she might not be able to reach them."
Nina stared at Scott in astonishment, surprised that he understood her preferences so well.
Nash's gaze sharpened, his tone extremely cold, Mr. Lucas, I've been with Nina for so many years. Do you think you understand her better than I do?" Hearing this, Nina just pursed her lips slightly, remaining silent.
Scott was confident, smiling as he asked, "If Mr. York understands her so well, do you know what Nina likes and dislikes?"
What Nina liked.
Nash paused for a moment, pondering Nina's preferences, her habits, and the small details of her life. It seemed like Nina had always been the one following him and taking care of him. He hadn't had much time to think about what she liked or disliked.
Scott continued, "Nina is a bit timid and easily gets nervous. She likes to drink milk to relax. She's not very picky with food, but she doesn't like carrots. and dislikes food with green peppers. She prefers. wearing warm-colored clothes. Probably due to work, she wears a lot of black nowadays."
Nina hadn't fully recovered from her astonishment, "Scott, how did you know all this?"NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
Nash's expression darkened, clearly showing his displeasure.
These were details he wasn't aware of, and they were coming from another man.
Scott knew because he observed her closely by
paying attention to the details of her daily life.
