CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 23

Chapter 23 

Everyone was curious about his answer. 

Scott paused for a while, being watched by everyone, and softly moved his lips, ” She’s not here and you don’t know her.” The interest everyone had suddenly disappeared. 

“Oh, I thought it was Nina. It turns out it’s not. It seems we were overthinking.” 

Nina never thought it was her. 

Their relationship was now more familiar than in the past. 

It was everyone’s over–speculation. 

Afterward, the focus was no longer on her, which left her feeling relaxed, not having to engage in their conversations. 

During the class reunion, men talked among themselves about work and 

business while holding their wine glasses. 

Nina drank a bit, perhaps not having 

drunk for too long, and soon felt dizzy, entering a slightly tipsy state. 

She vaguely heard someone talking, and it seemed like they were discussing her name. 

“Among us, Nina seems to be doing well, huh? She’s hovering between two big bosses. She must have made a lot of benefits, right?” 

“I don’t want to have such ‘good connections.‘ It stains your reputation. Haven’t you heard? Nina isn’t from a wealthy family. How could she afford Hermes? My guess is she’s probably the boss’s mistress, trading favors for luxury. 

” 

Several women deliberately whispered. 

They had long ago scrutinized Nina. 

She was dressed in luxury brand clothing, carrying Hermes bags worth hundreds of 

thousands. 

If she were only a secretary, she definitely couldn’t reach this level. 

They were speculating there. 

When Nina was studying, she couldn’t blend into these small groups. 

She wasn’t much into gossip and lacked curiosity about others, whereas they weren’t keen on reading and had long been immersed in society. In terms of perspective and outlook, they didn’t align. 

“Nina is just Mr. York’s secretary at the York Corporation, right? Are they having an affair?” 

“You see, Nina has been at the York 

Corporation for six or seven years, never changing jobs. She must have received a lot of benefits from Mr. York.” 

“I guess she wants to marry into a wealthy family!” 

“Just her?” One woman scoffed. 

“Impossible. The standards for marrying into a wealthy family are high. With her questionable background, how could she possibly marry into one? I bet she 

couldn’t get any more benefits from Mr. 

York, so she turned to her old classmate. She’s set her sights on Scott. Too bad 

Scott has someone he likes and doesn’t like her. Now she ended up like a clown.” 

They all burst into laughter. 

Nina tightened her grip on her glass but didn’t erupt. 

“Yeah, it’s weird. My dad and Nina’s parents live in the same neighborhood. I heard her dad owed a lot of money and then paid it off. Could it be Nina used her body to settle the debt?” 

“She looks decent on the surface, but deep down, she’s quite promiscuous…” 

Clang! 

Empowered by alcohol, Nina approached them and splashed her drink at them. 

“Ah!” They all screamed. 

Turning around, they looked at the indifferent Nina, feeling outraged as they stood up. Several of them accused her with indignation, “Nina, are you crazy? We didn’t do anything to you, yet you 

come here and splash us!” 

“Watch your mouth!” Nina retorted. 

One of the women had never liked Nina since middle school, finding her too self- righteous. Now, unable to resist, she sarcastically remarked, “You’ve already done shameful things, and yet you won’t allow us to talk about it. Who doesn’t know you’re being a mistress for someone? You avoid interacting with us, your old classmates, just because you’re afraid we’ll expose your dirty laundry. What’s there for you to act all high and mighty about!” 

Nina slapped her across the face. 

“You dare hit me? I’ll kill you!” The 

woman was furious and tried to strike back. 

Nina didn’t dodge. She had drunk quite a bit and felt dizzy, her reflexes slow. 

But before anyone could react, a figure stepped in front of her, stopping the woman who wanted to attack her. 

Amidst everyone’s astonishment, the figure pushed the woman away again. 

“York… Mr. York…” 

They were very surprised to see the man they had just discussed suddenly appearing in this situation. 

Hearing their astonished exclamations, Nina raised her head and saw a tall figure standing in front of her. She thought she might be drunk and didn’t see clearly. 

With her eyes wide open, she stared at Nash. She saw him wearing a cold expression and heard his chilly tone as he said, “Who gave you the audacity to spread rumors here?” 

With Nash’s presence, his naturally strong aura exerted pressure on 

everyone. The women who had just been arrogant were now too afraid to even breathe, lowering their heads one after another. They dared not say a word. 

They also backed down. No matter how much they disliked Nina, they had to 

humble themselves in front of the big boss. They spoke words of apology, “Mr. York, we misspoke. We hope you won’t take it to heart.”
