The more Nina listened, the more absurd it seemed. "You're overthinking it. I'm just telling the truth."
"Do you dare to say you don't like Mr. York?" Linda looked into her eyes and asked.
Since Nina was speaking the truth, she hesitated on this one.
"Your silence means consent."
As a woman, her intuition was spot-on, and she did indeed have feelings for Nash. If after all these years Nash hadn't returned her affections, it meant there was no romantic future for them. Yet, Nina also made sure no other women dared to fancy Mr. York. It explained the scarcity of rumors surrounding him; she must have meddled.
"Nina, we can compete fairly. If I lose, then I'll accept it," Linda said earnestly. "If Mr. York doesn't like me, then I'll back off and stop bothering him."
Nina found it laughable. "Do you really think I see you as a rival?"
Linda understood. "I know you've been by Mr. York's side for many years. He has feelings for you, but not romantic ones. It's the affection between a superior and a subordinate. I can understand your position, and I hope you can understand mine."
All of Linda's words couldn't hurt Nina, but when she mentioned how Nash treated her only as a subordinate over the years, it cut deep.
She was just too aware not to overstep boundaries. She wasn't someone who could be easily swayed by mere words, but as she looked at Linda's face and demeanor, she couldn't ignore the resemblance to Miranda.
Just as Taylor had said, Nash would take a few extra glances at such a woman.

Can you add more chapters per day please...
Don't tell me 🤯 Is Nina pharaoh's daughter?...
Meanwhile why is Nina playing hard to get? What else does she want from the man? I bet if Nash ever declares to kove the baby unconditionally she might soften up but lady just spill the secret he would be overjoyed!...
I see you increased the number of chapters per day by 2, but please can we have like 20 chapters per day? 7 chapters is too little, the suspense is just crazy...
