CHAPTER 137
CEO
Her career in acting didnât start off with a bang. During the York Corporationâs charity auction gala, Nash publicly distanced himself from her, causing her to feel embarrassed. In the intricate world of the entertainment industry, there were inevitably snide remarks about such situations.
Miranda was savvy enough to understand that Nash would support her, making him her strongest ally in the future. After reaching out to Nash at that time, her opportunities expanded.
She was occupied with filming and didnât have time to deal with Nina. Nina was also relatively peaceful. She didnât want to bother with these trivial matters.
The more she thought about it, the more it upset her. It was better to just let it go.
However, Taylor, beside Nina, glanced around and whispered, âNina, I made a mistake this time. Please donât take it personally. I wonât spread rumors about you and Mr. York anymore.â Nina looked at her. âWhat are you saying?â
Taylor furrowed her brows. âMr. York is already married, yet heâs still cheating. It shows heâs not trustworthy. I even thought Mr. York had feelings for you before. Iâm not trying to involve you in drama, even though I know Mr. York is exceptional in every way. But being unfaithful in relationships is just not right.â
She shook her head, still hoping Nina would find a good match.
Nina was sorting through some documents. âWhoâs been filling your head with gossip?â
âIâm not gossiping. I saw it with my own eyes,â Taylor said. âIt was that woman from the other day. You saw her too. She comes every day. Look, sheâll come again this afternoon.â
Nina was still pondering which woman she saw. Suddenly, she remembered Linda, who lived in the villa.
âMr. York has a wife at home who never checks up on him. She doesnât even know what heâs up to outside. Mrs. York must be feeling quite wronged,â Taylor said indignantly. âIf it were me, I wouldnât want such a life. Iâd rather have a simple life and a faithful partner.â
Linda came to the company to find Nash, and everyone noticed. She made a regular appearance at the company every day, giving others the opportunity to gossip.
Nina asked, âWhat does she say when she shows up every day?â
Taylor responded, âShe claims she wants to bring lunch to Mr. Ye, but lately, heâs never at the office during lunchtime. Sheâs bound to miss him.â
Taylor scratched her chin and added, âThey say Mr. Yorkâs preferences have always been consistent.â
Nina looked puzzled.
âThey claim this girl has a gentle and
delicate appearance, much like
Miranda. Mr. York seems to favor this type, so he found a
replacement,â Taylor explained, noting the similarity. âSince Miranda is unavailable due to her busy filming schedule, Mr. York sought out someone similar to fulfill his desires.â
Nina pursed her lips, finding some logic in Taylorâs words. âIf she shows up at noon, let me know.â
âSure.â
At noon, Linda arrived at the buildingâs entrance right on time.
She felt a twinge of anxiety, worrying that if too much time passed, Nash would forget about her. Although she now resided in the villa with al the comforts of home, her life was incomparably better than before. However, the house felt empty with only her presence, and she hadnât caught sight of Nashâs face again.
She couldnât shake off her unease.
Her girlfriends had often warned her that with so many other women out there, if a man didnât make an effort to see her for a while, he might forget about her and lose interest.
She didnât want Nash to lose interest in her.
As usual, she brought along a thermos bag and cautiously approached the front desk. She asked in a hushed tone, âExcuse me, is Mr. York in the office today?â
