Nina's gaze remained on the documents as she calmly said, "I'm still in my position, and Mr. York also needs a new secretary. Naturally, I'll do my duty and choose a good one for you."
Despite her words, Nash felt a slight annoyance. Was she trying to escape from him?
"I wonder when Mr. York will have time?" Nina reiterated, "We agreed to get divorced when the three-year term expired. Mr. York would not go back on his word, would he?"
Nash pursed his lips, remaining silent. Nina looked up at him again and said, "I hope Mr. York keeps his promise, for both your sake and mine..."
"Quincy, leave!" Suddenly, Nash's voice was sharp.
This command startled Nina. Watching Quincy leave, she felt a sense of suffocation in the now-empty space with only her and Nash. Looking into his eyes, she sensed something was wrong.
She could not figure out what she said wrong. Was not divorce better for them? He got the shares, she gained freedom, each getting what they wanted. What made him unhappy?
