CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery
Chapter 1081

Zoe shot a reproachful glance at Nash.

Nina, aware of the matchmaking gathering, patted Zoe's shoulder comfortingly. "Alright, Nash had good intentions that just went wrong. You must not have slept well. Go take a nap, and I'll cook something nice for lunch to treat you." "You're the best," Zoe said, giving Nina a quick kiss on the cheek before happily running upstairs.

Nina noticed an unusual glint of amusement in Nash's eyes, almost like a shrewd hunter savoring his strategy.

She wrapped her arm around his and leaned in closer. "Mr. York, is there something good you're not telling me?"

With Nina in his arms, Nash couldn't resist. He pulled her in for a deep kiss, leaving her breathless.

"Are you going to tell me or not?" she demanded, a bit flustered at how easily she still lost her breath during a kiss.

Nash leaned in and whispered in her ear, "The one who saved Zoe last night was Eugene Lowe."

Eugene Lowe? Nina thought for a moment before remembering the Lowe family. He was known for being a bit of a troublemaker, but how did that connect to anything good?

Just as she was about to ask Nash, she saw the smirk on his face and suddenly understood.

"So, our dear aunt is attracting the attention of a younger man, huh? But could there be more to it? A scheme, maybe?"

One guy like Michael was enough to deal with, and now another man from a powerful family? Even they might not be able to handle it.

Nash wasn't worried at all. "I doubt it. The Lowes are far too wealthy to need any underhanded tactics to gain more. If there's any plot, it's probably not about money. Maybe it's just fate for them."

"We'll replace out soon enough, won't we? Go get changed. We have a meeting today with one of the Lowe family's old clients. Maybe we can learn something from him," Nina suggested.

Nash nodded, remembering the meeting. He gave her another quick, possessive kiss before heading to change.

In the top-floor meeting room at York Corppration, a bearded man nervously gulped down his fifth cup of tea. His stomach was starting to churn. Looking a bit pale, he whispered, "When is Mr. York coming? If it's going to be a while, I need to use the restroom." The assistant smiled politely. "Apologies for the wait. Mr. York is on his way, but if you really need to go, feel free. I'll make sure he understands."

"Thank you," the man said, rushing off to the bathroom.

Just as he left, Nash and Nina arrived. The assistant quickly filled them in on the situation. Nash shot a playful yet slightly reproachful look at Nina. Thanks to her delaying him, they were nearly an hour late.

Nina's cheeks were still flushed, but she ignored Nash's teasing. Instead, she instructed the assistant to prepare breakfast. The client seemed pretty easygoing, so having breakfast with them should not be a problem.

When the bearded man returned to the meeting room, he was startled by the spread of breakfast on the table.

"Am I interrupting something?"

"Mr. Zook, no need to be nervous. If anything, we've been poor hosts, leaving you waiting for almost an hour. Please don't go around saying that we neglected you," Nash joked.

Mr. Zook was startled and quickly shook his head. "Mr. York, I would never! Really."

He pulled out a contract and handed it over. "I've reconsidered, and I'm willing to lower the price by another 10 percent. As long as you're interested, we can sign right away."

Another 10 percent off? That practically meant doing the job for free.

Nina narrowed her eyes, trying to gauge Mr. Zook's true intentions.
