His words warmed Linda's heart enough for her to sit close to him. "Mr. York, can someone like me really go to college?"

"Yes."

Linda smiled happily, her lips forming a gentle curve. "Mr. York, you're so kind to me. You're the best person in the world to me!"

This statement caused a slight change in Nash's expression. He set down the newspaper he was holding. Nina watched them, observing their harmonious interaction and genuine laughter, the first time she had seen such a lively scene. Even when Nash was with Miranda, he didn't appear as relaxed.

Linda's easy-to-please smile was evident. Just the thought of going to school made her this happy, which was indeed different from many others. She was innocent and inexperienced, making people see her as pure and deserving of sympathy. Perhaps that was her charm.

"Madam, why don't you come in and sit?" Nina stood at the door and was politely asked by a passing helper.

Her words were overheard by those inside. Nash shifted his gaze to Nina at the door, first puzzled, then his expression turned cold and indifferent, indicating he was still upset with her.

Linda quickly caught on, stood up from the sofa, and exclaimed, "It's Nina! You've come to see me!" She approached Nina, her eyes showing genuine emotions. "I thought you were still mad at me. I'm so happy you came to see me."

Not wanting to appear deliberate, Nina responded, "I heard you were having rashes due to the dry climate here. I brought a bottle of moisturizer for you. It works wonders; I hope it helps."

"No need, Mr. York already took me to see a doctor," Linda replied.

Nina glanced at Nash, somewhat surprised that he personally took Linda to see a doctor.

Nina extended the moisturizer to Linda, then awkwardly withdrew it. However, Linda intercepted it halfway and cradled it in her arms "But what you've brought me is different. Your concern makes me very happy. I'll definitely use it after my shower tonight. I'm sure it will help me heal faster." Content

Nina gazed at Linda's smile; she did seem much brighter than before. Was it Nash who gave her such a sense of warmth, allowing her to let her guard down?

She wanted to speculate if Linda had ulterior motives, but now she couldn't find fault with her behavior, making it hard for her to say anything. It was simply uncomfortable. To put it plainly, it was jealousy.

"Come on in quickly, don't stand at the door," Linda pulled Nina inside.

Seeing them like this, with Nash indifferent and cold towards her, made her feel a bit embarrassed all of a sudden. Even though she had made up an excuse about bringing moisturizer, she was well aware of her real purpose, which was to see Nash. Seeing them so harmonious made her feel like she was intruding.

She remained composed as she called out, "Mr. York."

Nash looked up with his icy gaze. "You've been ignoring here for the past few days, and suddenly you're showing concern?"

Nina felt a pang of discomfort at

being blamed for neglecting her duties. She replied, "With Mr. York here,

and you personally showing

such concern for Linda, where would

there be room for my involvement?"

She didn't realize the sharpness of her words, but Nash seemed displeased by them.

He retorted sarcastically, "Isn't it all thanks to your effort that I had the chance to get close?"
