Chapter 10
She was doing him a favor, he should be happy about it. Or perhaps it was his pride at play, feeling embarrassed that she had brought it up, causing him to lose face.
Nash's gaze shifted away from her, and he said coldly, "It's time to work." Nina checked the time; it was exactly nine o'clock, the start of the workday. She couldn't help but chuckle; he was really punctual, not allowing her a single idle
moment.
Watching Nash's retreating figure that was emanating an icy aura, she felt the distance between them, like that of a superior and subordinate. She didn't dwell on it and stepped out.
Quincy was waiting for her outside the door. "Nina, these are the documents Mr. York wants you to handle." A mountain of documents was thrust into her hands. Dust flew into her face, making her cough. Nina asked, "These documents are covered in dust. How old are they?" Quincy didn't dare to say, "I'm not sure. Mr. York arranged it." People from the company looked at Nina with
sympathetic eyes, thinking she had offended Mr. York, hence being assigned such unimportant tasks. Some even thought she had fallen out of favor with him.
Nina didn't know what was wrong with Mr. York, but he was acting unusually, giving her some unimportant tasks.
Later on, “Nina, these are important documents. You need to print fifty copies. Mr. York needs them, so you better get it done!" Paris Carter, another secretary, placed a stack of crumpled A4 papers in front of her, with a hint of disdain and mockery in her eyes, as if to assert
€
dominance over her, implying that if
Nina fell out of favor, Paris could easily
take her place.
Nina was still handling documents.
Seeing the large pile in front of her, she
knew it wasn't just about printing; she had to organize them too. Completing this task without working overtime in the evening was impossible. She looked up at Paris, who sneered, "With your ability, isn't it impossible not to finish?" Paris. and Nina were in a competitive relationship.
Nash spent a lot of time with Nina, and their understanding of each other was unmatched by anyone else. This made Paris very jealous. Despite her strong work abilities, she couldn't surpass Nina. This accident worsened their
relationship, and Nina was left doing the work of a lowly secretary.
Paris thought Nina relied on her looks to get ahead and considered her lucky. This time, she was determined to show Nina a thing or two. Nina knew Paris didn't like her, but she always focused on Nash, ignoring Paris's taunts. However, this time, she was being difficult.
Nina didn't want to endure it anymore. Enduring it only emboldened others. "Are
these really important documents Mr. York needs? If they're important, why aren't they being treated as such? I have other things to do, and I may not have time!" 1
Paris, seeing that Nina wasn't buying it, said indignantly, "Are you trying to defy Mr. York?"
Nina looked up at her. "I'm only doing what I can!"
"Who do you think you are, Nina? You have some nerve! I bet you don't want this job anymore!" Paris was furious and spoke loudly. If it weren't for Nash's permission, she wouldn't dare to bully
Nina.
After following Nash for so many years, Nina never expected any favor in return. She stood up suddenly, leaving the documents behind, and looked Paris in the eye, saying coldly, "I don't mind losing this job. You tell Mr. York that I'm taking the day off today. Will his
company collapse if he doesn't keep an eye on me?"

With that, she grabbed her bag and left. the company. Paris was furious but also eager to see Nina's fate. She shouted after her, "Fine! I'll go tell Mr. York, and we'll see what happens to you!" Paris saw an opportunity. No one dared to speak to Nash like that. If she told him what Nina said, Nina would surely be
fired. She couldn't wait to see Nina get
what she deserved.
She knocked on the office door and called
out, "Mr. York."
Without lifting his head, Nash replied coldly, "What is it?"
Paris stood there awkwardly and said, Mr. York, Nina actually skipped work during office hours. She just left without permission, and she even said that if you don't keep an eye on her, the company will go under. Everyone in the company saw it. Nina is becoming more and more unruly, disrespecting you and even cursing the company. I'm angry for you. Her attitude is outrageous. Should we just fire her directly..."
Nash's expression turned icy, and he uttered, "Get out!" He didn't want to hear
any more.
This left Paris bewildered. She knew Nash
would be furious about this matter and would definitely fire Nina, but she didn't expect his anger to extend to her as well. Feeling somewhat aggrieved, she dared not provoke him further and left with a gloomy expression.
Just as Nina reached the elevator, a doctor carrying a medical kit stepped out from it. He was tall, wearing a white coat, and upon seeing Nina, his sunny face. immediately lit up with a smile. He called out, "Nina, why aren't you in the office? Where are you off to with your bag? Didn't Nash tell you? Knowing you're
injured, he asked me to come and check on you..."
It was rare for Nash to personally request his medical attention, but he was
evidently concerned, fearing any complications.
Nina glanced at him and replied, "You better care for Nash and give him a check -up."
With that, she stepped into the elevator, ignoring the puzzled expression on the faces of those coming out.
