Chapter 299

Ben’s words were slow and clear.
Nina was dumbfounded. In two and a half months, she would be four months along, visibly pregnant. By then, Nash would be even less likely to let her go.
However, Nina quickly realized something. Her lips curled into a smirk as she said, “Should I address you as Nash’s friend?”
Ben’s eyes narrowed slightly, but he quickly smiled. “Miss Walker has sharp eyes.”
Although Ben appeared nonchalant on the surface, he admired Nina inwardly. She had seen through him with just one glance.
“Since you won’t handle my divorce case, I’ll take my leave,” Nina said, turning to leave.
After she left, Ben called Nash. Nash was still asleep, having drunk too much. He was awoken by the noise, his entire body aching.
Hearing Nash’s hoarse voice, Ben chuckled. “Still sleeping? Your wife came to see me early in the morning, and she saw through my identity. I think you should pay more attention!”
Nash’s exhaustion vanished from his pupils, replaced by a coldness. Without saying a word, he hung up on Ben and called Nina.
At that moment, Nina was seeking a lawyer. She had hit a dead end at a law firm.
Seeing Nash’s call, she felt her scalp tingle, but she could not ignore it.
Nash’s icy voice came through the phone, “Where are you?”
“I’m out shopping. Do you need something? I want to take the day off today.” Nina tightened her grip on the phone. When she left, Nash was still not sober. She did not panic about finding a lawyer. “Did you finish what I assigned you yesterday?” Nash asked, his tone indifferent.
Nina pursed her lips. “Then I’ll head to the office now.”
“Okay.”
Nina agreed but she did not go to York Corporation right away. Nash was still at home, so it would not make sense to go there so early.
After hanging up the phone, Nash got up and went to the walk-in closet. At that moment, his phone rang again.
Thinking it was Nina, he spoke with a cold tone, “There are some things I don’t want to repeat. Don’t try to challenge my limits.”
Miranda froze. Was Nash really speaking to her with such coldness?
“Nash,” Miranda’s voice trembled.
Only then did Nash realize that the person calling him was Miranda. Immediately, he softened his tone.
“What is it?”
Although Nash’s tone was much gentler, Miranda still sensed the distance in his words.
“I want to see you. There’s something I need to tell you in person,” Miranda said resolutely.
“Come over this afternoon.”
“I’ll wait for you.”
A determined look flashed in Miranda’s eyes.
When Nash arrived at York Corporation, the new employee had already arrived. Nina brought the person to him. “Mr. York, this is Cynthia Stewart.”
Nash looked up, his gaze falling on Cynthia. She had long hair, wavy curls and very slender.
“You shall go assist the person in charge of the Jasper Corporation,” Nash said, looking at Cynthia.
Cynthia nodded.
At this moment, Nina spoke up, “Alright, Mr. York. I’ll take care of Cynthia.”
Later, Nina personally took Cynthia to the hotel where the person in charge of the Jasper Corporation was located, intending for Cynthia to take charge.
Unexpectedly, Stella, the person in charge of the Jasper Corporation, directly stopped her. “Secretary Nina, I did not know it was you last time. I’m really sorry.”
