Chapter 1092
"Miss Nina, it's an honor that I met you before anyone else and that we're together now. Although we've faced many challenges along the way, I've always remembered that you're the one I love. From the beginning until now, that has never changed. There have been rumors that you gained your position as a mistress, and I know those rumors have affected you. I don't know who started them, but that's not important. Today, I want to say..."
As Nash spoke, pictures of their daily life together appeared on the screen, showing their love and making others envious.
Nash took the microphone and stood up, pulling a bewildered Nina to her feet.
"Nina, they don't know how amazing you are. They think you married up by being with me. But I know the truth that I'm the one who's lucky. Being loved by you is the greatest honor of my life. People don't know how we met and fell in love. But you know, don't you?" Nash's eyes grew misty. What had started as a way to address the rumors about Nina being a mistress had turned into something deeper as he saw the pictures of their past. They had been through so much, but they had stayed true to each other. Nina, with tears in her eyes, shyly turned her face away.
When Nash asked, "Do you believe that the only person I've ever loved is you?"
She nodded.
"Then remember this. You are not a mistress. I have never loved anyone else. Got it?"
After saying this, Nash kissed her forehead, then turned to the reporters. "Thanks to Mr. Lowe, everyone here gets a chance to witness the love between my wife and me. I apologize for taking up your time, but I do want to make one thing clear. When you see her, please refer to her as Mrs. York."
She had always been Mrs. York, and everyone knew it. Nash's emphasis seemed a bit strange at first, but then the reporters understood.
He wasn't just emphasizing it. He was showing off their love.
He was giving them a story.
Nash's public display of affection for his wife wasn't just a romantic gesture. It was also a subtle message to Eugene, reminding him that he should treat Zoe the same way.
By evening, the news was updated again. The reports framed Nash's actions as a lesson for Mr. Lowe. he wanted to become a part of the York family, he would need to treat Zoe with the same level of care and respect.
When Eugene saw the reports, he was livid. He coldly slammed his phone onto the table. "I knew something was off when you first I get it!
suggested this plan. Now I st
You're playing the role of my parent. Nash, that's pretty low."
Nash offered an apologetic smile. "I didn't expect the reporters to take it in this direction, Mr. Lowe. You can't really blame me for that."
"Of course I can blame you. You've set the bar so high with how you treat your wife. If I can't match that, how could I ever be considered worthy of marrying Zoe?" Eugene's comment left Nash momentarily stunned.
As far as Nash knew, Eugene and Zoe weren't even officially a couple, so how had things escalated to talk of marriage?
"Mr. York, you owe me compensation," Eugene said, his eyes gleaming with mischief.
Nash didn't catch the implication right away. Thinking of the situation with Mr. Zook, he replied, "Alright, we won't work with Mr. Zook anymore. That should make us even."
"That won't do. Whether you work with him or not is up to you. People like him, I neither encourage nor discourage. But, Mr. York, the compensation I'm asking for is different."All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Seeing Nash's confused expression,
Eugene got straight to the point.
"You have to treat me to dinner, as an apology. And of course, if you bring Zoe along, I might be more forgiving."
Nash laughed so hard he nearly fell over. Only Eugene could make such a shameless demand.
But a dinner? That was no problem at all.
After all, the idea of a powerful alliance was still quite appealing.
The dinner was arranged at a downtown hotel, where Nash reserved a private room with a "Lifetime Commitment" theme.
After notifying Zoe about the plans, he took Nina out to catch a movie.
