Chapter 291

“Yeah, you’re just afraid that Mr. York will be implicated. Then you will have no legitimate source of income, so you’re trying to twist the truth here!”
These folks redirected all their fury at Nina. They charged at her like they were possessed.
Paris observed, feeling satisfied. Under her breath, she muttered, “Let them beat her up.” It would serve Nina right to get a good thrashing, to learn her lesson.
However, Nash grew tense. Struggling against the police officers nearby, he found Nina guarded by another group of officers. Simultaneously, Quincy also made his way toward Nina.
In that moment, Nash breathed a sigh of relief and followed the police.
Nina immediately approached Quincy and said, “Focus on investigating Mr. Clementi and Serene.”
Nash publicly criticized Mr. Clementi at the shareholders’ meeting and Serene had been by Nash’s side recently. These two had the highest suspicion.
However, the investigation into this matter did not progress as quickly, and the public security department was still investigating. As a result, Nina was instructed to remain at York Corporation.
Quincy contacted lawyer Ben to go to the police station, but when Ben met Nash, Nash told him, “Don’t let her notice anything unusual about the divorce case.”
Ben was speechless. “Mr. York, you’re facing a homicide charge now. You’re the legal representative of the company, and on top of those accusations, do you know how many years you’ll be sentenced to if they can’t find crucial evidence to overturn the case? Things are urgent now, and you’re still thinking about the divorce case with Nina!”
Nash’s thin lips curled coldly. “That’s for killers and masterminds. And I’m not, so what’s the point?”
Ben shot him a fierce glare. “Aren’t you just relying on having Quincy and me around to behave like this?”
Despite his disdain, Ben still prioritized Nash.
Meanwhile, on Nina’s side, Mr. Clementi had already joined forces with the shareholders, clamoring for a reelection of the chairman and proposing someone else to lead York Corporation.
Nina scanned these people coldly. “You’ve all been with York Corporation for so many years. If Mr. York really had a problem, he wouldn’t have been caught at such a crucial moment.”
“Even if it’s not Mr. York, he’s a suspect now. A country can’t be without a ruler for a day, and a company can’t be without a leader. Are we all supposed to wait for him?” Mr. Clementi immediately directed his words at Nina.
Nina smirked lightly. “Mr. Clement, even though Mr. York is detained, there’s still me and Quincy in the company. Mr. York’s intentions will be conveyed in a timely manner.”
With that, Nina added casually, “Mr. Clement, you seem quite anxious. About Mr. York’s situation…”
Nina intentionally did not continue.
Mr. Clementi’s expression suddenly changed. “Nina, you’re just a mere secretary. What nonsense are you spouting?”
Nina smiled coldly. “You’re so quick to accuse me of nonsense, Mr. Clement? People with nothing to hide have nothing to fear. Why are you so panicked when others are not?” Nina’s sharp, dark gaze pierced Mr. Clementi.
Mr. Clementi was furious and wanted to tear Nina apart. “Nina, I believe you’re doing this on purpose! Last time, Mr. York deliberately targeted me at the shareholders’ meeting, and now you’re pulling this stunt. Are you colluding with Mr. York, trying to drag me down?”
Standing silently beside Nina all this while, Paris pretended to advise, “Let’s not argue, everyone. Nina is just concerned about Mr. York, so she’s a bit anxious.”
Nina brushed off Paris and spoke calmly, “If you’re the one guilty, I don’t even need to drag you down. If it’s not you, I can’t frame you either. Let’s make it clear, everyone. There won’t be an interim chairman. Both major and minor company matters will be overseen by me and Quincy.”
