Chapter 351
Upon receiving the order, Cynthia simply replied, “Oh.”
Nash stared at Nina, his expression darkening involuntarily, and added, “I’m not accustomed to drinking what others make.”
Cynthia halted in her steps once again.
However, Nina retorted, “Didn’t you hear what Miss Miranda say? The company doesn’t keep idlers. If Cynthia can’t handle the drink, what else can she do?”
Her words carried a sting, far from pleasant.
This caused both Taylor and Cynthia to draw in a sharp breath, feeling uneasy.
The atmosphere did not seem quite right.
Taylor had been by Nina’s side for several months now. Although she was reserved by nature, she was gentle in her demeanor, especially in front of Mr. York, showing utmost respect.
She always knew how to handle any situation.
When would she ever speak in such a tone to him?
They dared not breathe heavily, standing there obediently.
Nash’s eyes darkened. He was not feeling pleased about this matter either. He said coldly, “Didn’t you bring this upon yourself?”
Nina pursed her lips. “Yes, I did. So I have to teach her. It’s my responsibility, Mr. York. Can I teach her?”
Nash had no need to find a new secretary. It was all just an excuse to keep Nina around.
Today Nina was ready to argue with anyone, including him. He did not want to argue with her about this, so he simply said, “If you want to teach her, then take your time. Today, I want to drink what you’ve made!”
After saying this, he did not allow Nina to retort, walking into his office.
With the biggest pressure gone, Taylor relaxed and said to Nina, “Nina, you’re so cool. Miranda’s face must be turning blue by now!”
The appearance of Miranda had also brought considerable influence to Nina.
If it was just influence, she could handle it, but she also wanted to suppress her. Naturally, she could not let her leave so easily.
“She’s targeting you, treating you like a thorn in her side. She’s just full of envy and jealousy. Nina, you’ll always be on a higher level than her!” Taylor had just been scolded by Miranda, but Nina helped her back, which made her feel balanced again.
Miranda’s behavior also made Taylor realize something. Miranda had been seeing Nina as a competitor. That was probably why they had never gotten along before.
“Let’s not dwell on that.” Nina did not see Miranda as a rival. As long as Miranda did not provoke her, she didn’t want to bother herself with her.
Cynthia kept her head down, feeling a bit unsure. “Nina, am I too stupid?”
Nina looked at Cynthia and softened her expression. “No, you’re very smart. Don’t let Mr. York’s words affect you.”
Taylor also comforted Cynthia. “Don’t overthink it. I get scolded often too. Mr. York just has a temper. Don’t doubt yourself.”
Cynthia’s strengths were her honesty and diligence. She might not be very slick or tactful, but she was attentive and straightforward.
Most importantly, she cherished the opportunity that came her way.
Saying this also brought comfort to Cynthia.
The workplace could be brutal, and internal competition was fierce, but fortunately, Nina’s easygoing personality brought them a lot of warmth.
“Nina, I won’t lose heart. I might not make coffee as well as you do, but I’ll try a few more times until Mr. York is satisfied.” Cynthia pumped herself up again. In the end, Nina had to go make coffee for Nash.
When she entered, Nash was not working. He looked up at her and said, “Let’s leave work early tonight.”
Nina found this a bit unusual and asked, “Do we have dinner plans?”
Nash looked at her with interest. “It’s been a while since we went out together. How about dinner and a movie?”
