Chapter 9
Just at that moment, Niņa had arrived at the office, and the atmosphere in the entire CEO's office was quite somber. "Nina," they all politely greeted her.
"Nina, is the injury on your head okay now?" They expressed their concern.
Nina didn't want them to worry too much. "It's nothing serious. I rested all night yesterday, and I feel much better now."
"But you should rest more. Just ask Mr. York for a day off instead of coming to work with your injury. Nina, you take your work too seriously." They admired Nina's dedication; she worked more than she lived, and they probably wouldn't find another secretary like her.
Nina and Nash were still in a concealed
marriage status, and no one knew about their relationship, so she didn't dare to reveal too much. "I'll go find Mr. York first. You all focus on your work; don't worry about me too much."
As she reached the door, she heard
Nash's cold voice, "Kick out everyone who caused the accident on the construction site!"
Nina was taken aback; she thought he would blame her.
Then, a group of people came out of the office.
They looked dejected, but Nina showed little emotion on her face as she walked in as usual.
Nash glanced at her, noticing the injury on her forehead and her somewhat pale complexion. The wound seemed a bit serious.
"Mr. York," Nina called out.
Nash withdrew his gaze, not mentioning the incident at the construction site, and placed the documents from the brown envelope on the table. "What do you mean by this?"
It was probably the divorce agreement drafted by Yvonne. Nina calmly said, "I think Mr. York should understand. It's a divorce agreement. Today, I'm not just here for company matters; I also want to discuss ou divorce. Do you have time, Mr. Yok?"
"Nina!" Nash's tone grew heavier, his voice cold. "How come I didn't know you were eager for a child!"
Nina looked puzzled. "What do you mean?
Nash tossed over the document. "See for yourself.”
Nina opened the document and only then discovered the reason for divorce stating: "The wife desires children, while the husband's infertility has led to the breakdown of the relationship!" Suddenly, Nina felt very embarrassed. Yvonne had prepared the divorce agreement for her, but she didn't know when she had added a few clauses sneakily. Each sentence leaned in her favor. No wonder Yvonne had been so excited when she left, as if Nina would come back with a fortune.
But that was not very realistic.
She glanced at Nash. He was angry, perhaps thinking she was too scheming to dare to make such bold demands.
"Mr. York, I sent the wrong agreement, Nina closed the agreement. "If you're in a hurry, I can bring you another one as soon as possible."
"I'm infertile?"
He had already approached, his face dark, seeming to confirm the meaning of those words from her.
She couldn't help but take two steps back. "Mr. York, I may not be very clear about this. Miranda should know better..."
The next moment, Nash grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms.
Nina was powerless to resist, being held
tightly by him and pushed against the desk. She braced herself against the tabletop, but her lower back hit the edge of the desk, causing some pain. "Why didn't you mention wanting children earlier?" Nash said.
Nina opened her mouth to respond, but Nash sneered, "Or did you want to tie me down with a child? Is the divorce a ploy to have a child with me?" His words made Nina's face pale even She struggled to push his hand away. "Nash, you're going too far!"All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
Nash became even more indifferent, more distant, his tone icy. "Nina, I've never mistreated you these years. Don't think about those unrealistic things!" He didn't understand her. In his eyes, marrying him meant a life of luxury and glamour with the title of "Mrs. York."
But she wasn't happy.
Nina calmed down, not wanting to argue with him anymore. "Don't forget, the
three-year marriage contract was your decision. I just made it happen earlier.
"It was my decision, so I have the final say. Without my consent, this marriage won't end."
Nina frowned. If they divorced sooner, wouldn't he be able to be with Miranda sooner?
