CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 139

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.

The sight stunned everyone, yet Linda's bold move proved successful. The car, not moving too fast, happened to stop just in front of her. It was a close call. Nonetheless, the car still collided with Linda, sending her crashing to the ground, her legs searing with pain.

She gritted her teeth against the pain and lifted her head. She then reached out her hand and cried, "Mr. York..."

Nina was also startled by her reckless actions and she hurried over to check. She was relieved to see no blood on the ground which indicated that Linda wasn't severely injured.

Nash stepped out of the car and casted a cold gaze upon Linda, who lay before the car. He walked over, but Linda feared he might leave her. Clutching onto his trouser leg, she managed to utter a few words.

Nina was too far away to hear clearly. She only saw Nash's expression soften, and he urgently instructed someone to lift Linda into the car.
