“Mr. York.” Nina nodded in acknowledgment as she greeted him.However, Mr. York did not respond. Instead, he walked steadily toward her, his imposing figure casting a strong sense of pressure over Nina. His expression was tense.Nina did not understand his current demeanor until he furrowed his brows and asked, “Nina, why did you help me?”He had heard from Quincy. He knew about Nina’s plan, how she swiftly orchestrated everything, ensuring his quick release and exposing the schemes of Clement and Paris.He clearly told her not to go, but she went anyway and acted so swiftly. Was it out of concern for him or afraid that something might happen to him?Nina had not expected Mr. York to question her like this.

As long as I’m with York Corporation, I’ll always help you through thick and thin.”Her tone was calm, devoid of any extra emotion, her clear eyes revealing nothing.A hint of sarcasm tugged at Mr. York’s lips. “Well, then you’re certainly a loyal employee.””Not at all,” Nina replied, bowing her head.Her demeanor fueled Mr. York’s growing anger.

Caleb, Hunter, and Ben were already there.Spotting him, Ben quipped, “Why are you alone? Where’s your lovely wife?”Caleb and Hunter had heard about what Nina had done for Nash today from Ben. They also knew about Nash’s instructions to Ben.Seeing Nash’s mood, Hunter shook his head, “As I suspected from the start, you’ve fallen for her.”Caleb added, “What’s there to fear? If you like her just be honest. Having feelings for each other is a good thing for you both. Have a kid soon. It’ll strengthen your bond. By then, who needs a divorce?
