Chapter 154
Linda was initially nervous and felt like she was losing, but overhearing their conversation boosted her confidence. Nina’s position as Mrs. York was meaningless; nobody knew about it, and it wouldn’t serve any purpose. They would probably get divorced in the future.
As she looked at them, an idea suddenly struck Linda. “Don’t be in such a hurry,” Linda smiled, “It’s not easy to get into York Corporation. You might be kicked out before even getting in!”
“How could that happen? I’m Nash’s aunt-in-law. Who would dare to kick me out?” Lily said confidently, relying on her status and expecting to be treated well.
Linda continued, “All of you mentioned that Nina is wary of you. She’s Nash’s secretary. If you’re reported when you enter, she’ll be the first to know. Do you think you’ll be allowed to stay?”
Lily frowned, realizing the possibility. “You make a good point. I didn’t speak nicely to her at the hospital. Coming here, she won’t give me a warm welcome!”
“My niece doesn’t respect her elders at all. She doesn’t know how to show respect!” Sue, influenced by her aunt’s words, became anxious. “What should we do?”
Lily looked ahead at the towering building with the York Corporation logo. The entire building belonged to the York family. They must be incredibly wealthy. She had never dared to imagine that her family would one day marry into such wealth.
“I have a solution!” Linda exclaimed. “I’m not sure if you’re open to trying it.”
Lily turned to Linda, her face brightening. “Miss, you’re a lifesaver! What’s your plan?”
Thirty minutes later, there was a commotion at the entrance of York Corporation. Lily attempted to speak with the receptionist but couldn’t locate Nina anywhere. She had anticipated this. Even though they were relatives, Nina didn’t acknowledge her. Well, if Nina wouldn’t acknowledge her, then Lily wouldn’t hold back!
Lily began to throw an unreasonable tantrum, crying and causing a scene. “Nina Walker is my niece, and her own aunt can’t even see her. She’s disrespectful and doesn’t care about her uncle’s life or death. Just because she works for a big company, does that mean she can disown her own family?”
The receptionist struggled to handle Lily’s behavior. She was particularly concerned about the sanitation workers outside. If reporters witnessed this spectacle, it would damage the company’s reputation. She quickly stepped forward to assist. “Ma’am, please calm down. Take a seat and have some water.”
Lily glared at the receptionist. “Who wants water? Bring Nina out. If she doesn’t come out, we’re not leaving!”
Linda had warned that directly confronting Nash would likely result in expulsion. It would be pointless to go empty-handed and risk being kicked out for no reason.
She was Nina’s aunt, after all, and if Nina refused to acknowledge her own family, it would only show that Nina was heartless. Moreover, if Nina’s image was tarnished, it could potentially affect York Corporation, and she couldn’t allow that to happen. It made perfect sense to take action.
Nash was a big shot, and if he held a grudge against her, it could spell trouble for her in the future. Offending a wealthy nephew-in-law was not something she could afford. Therefore, she had to find a way to address the situation with Nina.
“Ms. Walker is quite busy and doesn’t have much time,” the receptionist said.
“Even if she’s busy, she still has time to spare, doesn’t she? What harm would it do to meet her aunt?” Lily persisted.
“I understand that she’s avoiding me because she’s afraid I’ll cause trouble, but even when her uncle was almost killed, she didn’t lift a finger to help. Can your company really tolerate such a heartless employee? If she’s disrespectful to her own family, can she be trusted to take care of the company? If news of this gets out, your company’s reputation will be at stake!”
