Jensen focused fully on going over her answers and spoke slowly, “I recall you majored in finance overseas.”

“You know that perfectly well already.”

“What schools teach you is nothing but obscure jargon and confusing definitions. Those textbook lessons will never teach you how to run a real business. If professors could actually make big money just by relying on what’s printed in books, they would all be top business tycoons instead of staying in classrooms to teach.”

“Then is there anything wrong with my answers?”

“Your writing reads just like something written by a seasoned veteran in the business field. I even started to wonder if your side job overseas was never being an entertainer, but running a listed company instead.”

Jensen stared straight at her, as if he could see right through every secret she hid.

Just as Nina struggled to think of words to brush it off, he suddenly spoke again, “It must run in your family. Your parents are sharp business people, and they’ve influenced you deeply since you were little. You truly have more talent for business than for being in the spotlight.*

Nina let out a quiet breath of relief.

Thank goodness he did not suspect my connection to The T Company. Otherwise, my real identity would have been exposed for sure.

“You look really nervous right now.”

“Do I? You must be imagining things.” Nina stood up quickly. “You’ve finished checking my work, right? I’m heading back to my room now.”

She was about to leave when her phone suddenly rang.

It was her mother calling. She picked up right away. “Hi Mom, I’ll be heading back

tomorrow.”

“Nina… your dad got into a car accident. He’s in the hospital right now!”

Shocked by the news, Nina froze for a second. She grabbed her bag and turned to Jensen in a panic. “I have to go back to Linholt right this instant!”

Chapter 239 Sudden Family Emergency

Sensing how flustered she was, Jensen knew something serious had happened. “Did something happen to your family?”

“My dad was hurt in a crash. He’s still in hospital!”

Nina booked the earliest available flight and rushed straight back to Linholt.

The local downtown hospital was always crowded. She hurried to the ward and saw her father lying in bed with his arm wrapped in bandages. Luckily, his injuries did not seem too

severe.

Marvin looked surprised the moment he saw her. “Nina? Why did you come back all of a sudden?”

“I couldn’t keep such a thing hidden from our daughter,” Esther said as she tended to Marvin. “Don’t worry too much, Nina. It’s just some minor scrapes. I texted you not to rush back. Why didn’t you listen?”

“Dad, how did this accident even happen out of nowhere?”

Sam had worked as their family driver for decades and had never caused any traffic incidents before. No one expected him to get into trouble this time.

“A car suddenly cut in front of us out of the blue. Even Sam couldn’t react in time. Thankfully no one got badly hurt. We heard the other driver was drunk and driving recklessly in broad daylight.”

A frown settled on Nina’s face.

This was far too coincidental.

“Have they arrested the person who caused the crash?”

“The police have taken him into custody. He will face detention charges and has to cover all compensation fees.”

Standing outside the ward, Jensen heard every word they said and knitted his brows tightly. He immediately dialed Kent’s number and spoke in a cold voice, “Contact the local police station in Linholt, look into the full details of this accident, and gather all personal information on the culprit. Get it done as fast as possible.”

“Understood, sir.”

Jensen stayed outside and did not step into the room..

When Nina walked out later, her tone turned icy the second she laid eyes on him. “Jensen, you owe me an explanation for this.”

“I’m truly sorry.” His voice sank low.

“Right after Julian threatened to teach you a lesson, someone immediately targeted my family. They are clearly trying to force me to give in. I will never let this matter rest easily.”

“I will take full care of this matter properly.” He sounded even more solemn. “Let me drive you home first.”

“If you can, please arrange people to keep my parents safe. I know you have enough influence to do so. They have always treated you kindly and never done anything wrong. I won’t allow anyone to hurt them in the slightest.”
