Just as he encountered Nina, Quincy stopped and said, "Madam, Mr. York invited you to dinner..." He noticed the glistening tears in Nina's eyes, realizing they had argued before. He added, "Madam, regardless of the conflict between you and Mr. York this time, he knows he was wrong. Look, these flowers were bought by Mr. York, they're for you."He wanted to mend their relationship. He had been with Mr. York for many years, and he had never thought about buying flowers for anyone. Mr. York was clueless about what couples should do. It's not that he did not understand, but he felt that no woman could make him do such things. The fact that he put thought into these flowers for Nina showed he still cared for her.Nina looked at the flowers in Quincy's hand and smiled faintly. "Didn't I say to call me Nina? Why are you calling me 'Madam' again? From now on, there's no 'Madam,' just colleagues. And as for these flowers, Mr. York should give them to someone who's actually important to hi
"Nash, what's got you so worked up?" Hunter, seated across from him, asked. They were at a nightclub, the music loud and lively, with sexy dancers on stage and many people enjoying the night out. The atmosphere was noisy, but Nash was not interested in this kind of nightlife. This was more Hunter's scene. "Nothing," Nash replied, his face serious and contemplative. Hunter took a sip of his wine, still holding onto a woman, and grinned mischievously. "Another clash with your lady?" "Impossible," Caleb chimed in knowingly. "Nash never comes out on the losing end." Hunter continued, "Caleb, don't underestimate that woman. Last time Nash saw her talking to another man, he flipped out. I saw it with my own eyes." Caleb did not quite get it. "Do married people need to be that possessive?" "Shut up!" Nash snapped at them. Hunter naturally fell silent. But even the discerning eye could see that Nash's marriage was in an abnormal state. His emotions had never been this out of co
Nina stared at the lipstick mark on the shirt for a while, her expression showing little emotion. She understood that attending social events would inevitably encounter flirtatious encounters. However, she had never seen lipstick mark on his shirt before. Nina subconsciously grasped the shirt tightly, causing it to wrinkle in her hands. As the bathroom door opened, Nina snapped out of her thoughts. Nash emerged from inside and noticed Nina standing there motionless. "What are you doing standing there?" he asked. Not sensing Nina's emotions, he glanced at the time and added, "It's late. You usually sleep by now. Can't sleep tonight?" Recently, Nina rarely waited for him to sleep. In the past, she could only sleep soundly when he returned home. Now, sometimes when he came back late, Nina was already fast asleep, no longer waiting for him. Though Nina could sleep whenever she wanted, Nash could not help but notice the difference in these details, which brought a sense of dis
If it required authority, she would notify the other executives. With everyone else unavailable this time, the responsibility fell on her shoulders. "Okay, let's go. You're coming along too.""Okay," Cynthia replied.Nina brought along a few others.Cynthia was new, and she needed to familiarize herself with the company's operations. Along the way, Nina repeatedly reminded Cynthia to be careful and meticulous. There could not be any mistakes.Before long, they arrived at the dock.The ship had already docked, and Jasper Corporation's people were unloading cargo.As soon as Nina stepped out of the car, she heard someone say, "Why isn't it Mr. York who came, but you, Nina? Can you represent Mr. York now?"Turning around, she saw Stella approaching with her arms crossed. Nina replied with a smile, "Mr. York is busy today. Besides, it's not the first time I've represented Mr. York in negotiations with Miss Jasper. I believe you can understand."Stella was increasingly displease
She had heard of Nash and Miranda. As for Stella, she had not heard of her at all. Stella recalled the past, still finding it romantic. At least, there had not been such exciting moments in her life since then. "You wouldn't understand! Nash saved me, and I fell in love with him at first sight. I told him then that I would marry him when I grew up, and he promised. He promised to marry me! That's our agreement," Stella declared passionately.Nina found her words absurd. Wasn't she just a child back then? How could a child's words be taken seriously? Moreover, Stella claiming that Nash had promised her seemed dubious. Nash probably did not even remember Stella, just like he did not remember her. With so many people Nash had helped, it could not have meant anything to him emotionally. "You should ask Nash about that. It's pointless discussing it with me. We still have work to do," Nina responded, uninterested in Stella and Nash's story.However, Stella grabbed her hand, refus
Nina's decision to bite her was a desperate move, hoping to make Stella back off. With Nina positioned at the shore's edge, she plunged straight into the sea when Stella shook her off.She refused to accept such a fate for herself. Even if she were to die, she would not go down alone. In the moment Stella shook her off, Nina swiftly grabbed onto Stella's other hand, and they both fell into the ocean together. With a loud splash, waves erupted around them. Both women struggled in the water, Stella unable to swim, shouting for help. The wind was strong today, causing the waves to surge dangerously high. Nina, though adept at swimming, found herself battling the strong currents. No matter how hard she tried, it seemed like they were drifting farther from the shore. Panic set in. She could not bear the thought of dying, especially with her unborn child at risk. She pushed forward with all her strength, her arms growing heavy with fatigue. But as she looked back at the endless expa
The reporters aimed their microphones at them, numerous devices poised for interviews. "Mr. York, Miss Miranda is a rising star you've nurtured from the start. With her receiving this newcomer award today, is there anything you'd like to say to her?" Facing the camera, Nash replied calmly, "Her hard work has paid off, and I'm genuinely happy for her." Miranda held the trophy in her hands, smiling shyly. The reporter turned to Miranda and continued, "Miss Miranda, today is a great day for you. Your debut film earns you this newcomer award. Shouldn't you be grateful to Mr. York?" The reporters intentionally asked questions about each other, not letting any gossip slip away. Holding the microphone, Miranda responded gently, "I'm delighted to win the award today. This marks my first step into the entertainment industry, and I believe it won't be my last. My success wouldn't be possible without Mr. York. He's the most important person in my life." She glanced at Nash, her eyes revea
Although Nash had clarified his marital status at a previous York Corporation gala, stating he was married, the public remained unaware. Today, he publicly acknowledged his marriage to prevent further speculation about him and Miranda in the media."This can't be a joke, Mr. York. Your marriage shouldn't be such a secret. How come there's been no news about it?""It's not April Fools' Day, Mr. York. Please don't joke around...""I am married," Nash said earnestly. "I've never been one for jokes. My wife has been by my side for seven years, and we've been married for three. We've always been very close. I don't want any of you to misreport and cause misunderstandings with my wife!"Miranda's expression turned somewhat unnatural. Nash publicly acknowledging their marriage was something she had never anticipated. Despite her discomfort, she maintained her composure in front of the cameras, though her fingers tightened in an effort to control her inner anxiety.Nash had always indulge
