She tried to endure it for a while, thinking she could tough it out. But her nose was too sensitive, and she ended up retching directly.Leonard, in the midst of chatting with her, suddenly noticed her reaction and asked with concern, “Nina, are you okay?”Unable to hold back any longer, Nina covered her mouth and hurried to the bathroom. Seeing her symptoms, Leonard could not figure it out.Only pregnant women would have such a reaction, right? His expression changed constantly, and he followed her to the bathroom door.Nina vomited for quite some time. The morning sickness was getting stronger. After vomiting, Nina washed her face and walked out. Leonard handed her a tissue.Nina took it and said, “Thanks.”Leonard asked, “Why are you vomiting so badly? Are you pregnant?””Yes, you caught me,” Nina admitted without hesitation.Leonard was very surprised. It had not been that long since he last saw Nina, and now she already had a child on the way. “Congratulations, I didn’t expect that after all this time apart, you’d already have a child,” he said, genuinely happy for her.But Nina avoided the topic and said with a smile, “Let’s talk about something else.”Leonard sensed that Nina did not want to discuss the father of the child. He did not pry further. If she did not want to talk about it, he would not push. But looking at her slender figure, pregnant and still working so hard, he wondered if her resignation was related to her pregnancy.She would rather step down than stay at York Corporation, so something must have happened. Leonard felt sorry for her. She was a woman after all, with limited capabilities. Would she continue working tirelessly every day, even with a growing belly? It was pitiful.Leonard immediately instructed his assistant, “Go, buy something for me.””Yes, Mr. Hill,” the assistant replied promptly before leaving.Meanwhile, Nina continued her work with the photographer. Whenever she caught a whiff of the foul odor, she would cover her nose, furrowing her brows, and suppress the urge to vomit. “Leonard,” Nina closed her notebook and discussed work with him. “There’s a new project at the TVstation. I wanted to give you aheads-up. If you’re interested, wecan discuss it further.””Let’s not talk about work for now. I think you need to rest,” Leonard suggested, noticing her pale complexion.”It’s okay,” Nina insisted, unwilling to waste time. “Work is important.”She could not afford to slack off for a moment. She still had to go back and write articles.Leonard followed behind her, Ads by PubFuture
keeping a close eye on her.Suddenly, Nina felt dizzy, her vision blurred. Leonard instinctivelyreached out to support her. “I’ve netbeen saying you need to rest Pregnant women need plenty of rést. The baby in your belly is important…” Before he could finish, someone grabbed Leonard’s hand tightly, causing him pain. Then, without warning, a fist landed on his face, knocking him to the ground. “Mr. Hill!” his assistant exclaimed in shock, rushing to help him.Nina, still feeling dizzy, sensed that something was wrong.Nash loomed over Leonard on the ground, his expression dark and his anger boiling over. He asked sharply, “Are you Zac? Is the baby in her belly yours?” Confused and disoriented from the sudden attack, Leonard’s cheek quickly bruised. He saw Nash standing before him. “Mr. York, I…”Nash grabbed his collar, lifting him up, and delivered another blow.As Nina’s dizziness began to subside, she witnessed Nash striking Leonard again. Her expression changed drastically. “Nash, what are you doing?” Nash held onto Leonard, interrogating Nina, “Is this the man you’ve been secretly in love with all these years?” Ads by PubFuture
