CHAPTER 207
CEO
âI told Dad that Nina was bullying you, which led to the police detaining you. He was furious and went to confront Nina. But he shouldnât have kidnapped her. Could it be true what she said, that someone was pulling the strings behind the scenes? Think about that woman who helped us. Could it be herâ¦?â
Sue felt a chilling sensation creeping over her.
How could someone help others without any reason?
If not for a purposeâ¦
Then, had her father also believed her nonsense?
âItâs impossible, itâs impossibleâ¦â Lily refused to believe this fact.
Sue said, âIf someone else killed Dad, what should we do?â
She did not know what to do next.
They could not let her fatherâs death be in vain and let the culprit escape unpunished.
âIs it over?â
Standing there, his tall figure towering, Nash asked as the car parked behind him, seeing Nina walking over.
Nina looked up at him. âYes, itâs over.â
âTheyâve all gone back. Why did you take so long?â Nash noticed her late arrival.
Nina did not hide anything and told him, âI just saw Linda and your mom, and we talked for a bit.â
Nash could not help but furrow his brows, looking down at Nina. âThey came here?â
Nina replied, âThey said they came for sightseeing.â
Nash fell silent.
Nina wondered whether she should tell Nash about the false accusations against her and Xanderâs kidnapping. Perhaps it would only cause him more trouble. âLetâs go back,â Nina said, wanting to get into the car, but she noticed Nash did not move, so she turned to look at him.
Nash stood with one hand in his pocket, sensing that she was hiding something from him. He asked in a deep voice, âWhy did they come to kind of place for sightseeing? What did they say to you?â
Nina shrugged indifferently. âWhat could your mom possibly say to me?â
Nash could understand, but he still questioned Ninaâs response. âYou donât have anything to ask me about Lindaâs pregnancy?â
Nina replied, âYou havenât been back these days.â
âYeah.â He either stayed in the hospital or at the company.
Since Nina had not returned to the York residence, Nash had not gone back either. He was indifferent to their affairs.
Nina remained expressionless. âYour
mom has taken Linda under her
care, saying itâs for her grandson. They seem to get along well. Your momis ecstatic about having a grandchild, eagerly awaiting the birth moment.â
Her words did not address Nashâs concerns at all. It felt awkward.
Nashâs expression turned stern. âYou havenât answered my question yet.â
Nina looked at him. âIsnât everything already known? You wanted to find that woman before, and now sheâs pregnant. What else is there to ask?â
She felt she had done what was expected of her.
Nashâs gaze sharpened as he stared at Nina. âThe surveillance footage from that night disappeared, and
thereâs no evidence proving that et
woman in room.
was in my room. Suddenly, a
woman shows up and gets pregnant. Does everything just fall
into place so smoothly?â
Nina thought Nash was unwavering in his beliefs, but he did not seem so easy to deceive after all.
Nash got into the car, his face cold, eyes fixed straight ahead. âI suspect the surveillance was deleted intentionally!â Hearing this, Ninaâs body tensed up.
âSomeone didnât want to be caught, so they let someone else take the fall!â
He did not believe for a moment that the woman was Linda. Something about her did not sit right with him.
His speculation sent shivers down Ninaâs spine.
âAnd you, Nina,â he added, calling her out by name, making Nina unable to maintain her composure any longer.
