Chapter 20

His words shocked Nina deeply. This was the most private secret between her and Nash. How could he say it out loud? She remained cautious.

Scott was extremely surprised, stunned for a moment before calmly asking, ” How did you find out?”

Nash moved his mouth slightly, but Nina spoke first, “Mr. York is just joking.” She interrupted Nash directly, maintaining a smile on her face as she stepped away from him.

“I’ve been busy with work all these years, how could I possibly get married? Don’t overthink it,” she said to Scott.

Upon hearing this, Nash’s face tensed up, his gaze fixed on Nina with displeasure, lips pressed tight.

“I see,” Scott sighed in relief. “Well, that’s alright. I was wondering why I didn’t hear about your marriage.”

If she had gotten married, he thought, he would have known.

Nina immediately changed the subject, not giving Nash a chance to explode, saying, “Scott, I promised to go back to the company with Mr. York. You don’t need to see me off. You go ahead and take care of your business.”

Scott looked at the two of them, realizing that it wasn’t convenient for him to

accompany her and worrying that he might delay Nina’s work. So, he agreed, Alright, then I’ll leave first. See you next time.”

“Okay, see you next time,” Nina waved at him.

Scott’s car was nearby. He opened the door, got in, rolled down the window,

waved at Nina, and then drove away.

After he left, Nina felt the tension in her

heart relax.

“Are you afraid of others knowing about our relationship?” Nash walked up to her,

his voice cold in her ear.

Nina turned to him and asked back, Isn’t it you who doesn’t want others to know about our relationship?”

Nash pursed his lips tightly, unsure of what to say next, his eyes showing clear displeasure.

“I remember.” Nina was clear–headed. She wouldn’t act impulsively. She always remembered the heartless words he said to her on their wedding day.

Then she told him, “You’re very particular about this matter. Rest
