Chapter 288
Nina was at the career fair.
With the York Corporation label, there was a crowd coming to check it out and submit resumes. She went through them one by one, sending them to Nash, but got no response.
Not a single resume caught Nash's eye. It was clear he was intentionally making it tough for her, unwilling to let her leave.
Nina felt drained, both physically and emotionally. She made a decision. She would stay here for another hour and collect a few more resumes. If Nash still did not find any suitable, she would give up.
It was hot, so she went out to buy herself a bottle of water. As she walked back, with the blazing sun overhead, she felt dizzy. She immediately dared not move forward. She sat on the edge of the flowerbed by the roadside, gasping for breath.
"Nina." Suddenly, a somewhat uncertain male voice came from beside her.
Nina subconsciously looked over and saw Scott, standing beside her in a tall and well-fitted silver-gray suit, slightly bent over.
Nina was startled. Seeing her turn around, Scott straightened up again, with one hand in his pocket.
"Scott."
Scott looked at her and smiled, "Yes, it's me."
"What a coincidence," Nina found that she always ran into him.
"I came here for an on-site inspection, and my assistant just parked the car to buy something, and I saw you."
Nina also saw a black car parked not far away.
"And you? Why are you alone here?"
Scott's voice brought Nina's thoughts back.
Nina smiled lightly and replied, "I'm here for recruitment."
"Recruitment?"
Scott could not help but frown.
He asked in confusion, "Did York Corporation ask you to come in person for recruitment?"
As he spoke, he sat down beside Nina. However, he still kept some distance from her.
Nina remained silent for a moment, then continued, "Just recruiting for my position." "Are you resigning?" Scott concluded from her words.
Nina did not hide it, "Yes."
For a moment, the atmosphere fell silent.
Scott noticed her tired look and hesitated for a moment before asking, "Is there trouble between you and Nash?"
Scott's sudden question caught Nina off guard, and she looked up at him.
She and Nash were in a contractual hidden marriage. Few people knew about it. She had not told Scott either.
Did he know that their relationship was more than just employer and employee?
Nina realized and stared at him, asking in a muted voice, "You know?"
"Yeah," Scott smiled, "I figured it out last time."
He had sensed it when he last saw Nash. Combined with the recent rumors about Nina and Nash, he was sure. Before, he thought she just liked Nash. Now, he realized it was much more than he had imagined.
But as long as she was happy.
But she did not seem happy.
Nina lowered her head, "Sorry, Scott, I've been keeping something from you."
"It's okay, that's your privacy, I understand."
Not having to carry the burden of this hidden marriage and keeping secrets from Scott was a relief for Nina. She told him, "It doesn't matter that you know now. Anyway 'm planning to divorce him soon." en.s.net
Hearing the word "divorce," Scott felt a mix of joy and discomfort.
"Why?" Scott paused, subconsciously clenching his fist, and asked, "Is he... not treating you well?"
Nina chuckled softly, "It's hard to say
he's not treating me well. If you don't
consider the marriage, he should be good to me, but it's time for
divorce." en.s.net
Time for a divorce? It sounded like a contractual marriage. They probably did not want to make their marriage public, most likely.
He could only comfort Nina, "Nina, if
a relationship doesn't make you happy, it's okay to say goodbye. If you still have attachments, then hold on a little longer. Eventually, you'll let go Everything will pass." en.s.netRêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
