With her head lowered, Nina responded, "No, it was just a casual remark, don't take it to heart. I know the agreement between us, and as you know, my heart belongs to someone else." She knew that saying this would undoubtedly anger Nash, but she felt she had no choice. She had that little bit of pride and did not want Nash to think she was jealous.

Following her words, the smile on his face quickly disappeared, and he darkened his expression, "In the office, you are my secretary. When I ask you to do something, you just need to nod and agree." The implication was clear which was to cut the unnecessary talk.

Nina nodded, "Yes." Then, she stepped towards Nash.

Her touch was gentle, and importantly, the faint fragrance from Nina made Nash feel very relaxed. Soon, he closed his eyes and relaxed completely.

Meanwhile, Sally had arrived at the Walker residence.

The last time they were at the hospital, Sally had physically attacked Nina, and Julia had developed a poor impression of her. Seeing Sally now, she was even more dismissive, "What are you doing here?" Sally, holding her branded bag, looked down upon Julia from her lofty position, "Your daughter and Nash are in a contract marriage, initially married for two million. Tell me, how much will it take for you to agree to a divorce now?"

Sally's words only fueled Julia's anger.

She grabbed a nearby broom, ready to chase Sally away, "They'll naturally divorce when the agreement ends, but if they're still married now, it's clearly because your son is clinging to my daughter! Don't use money to insult people. If Nash had no ulterior motives, why would he marry my daughter?"

Zion was not home today, so it was a showdown between two women.

Sally had not expected Julia to react this way. Already furious, her anger intensified: "My son clinging to your daughter? That's laughable. Let me tell you, the daughter-in-law I desire is definitely not Nina! If it weren't for her tricks initially, do you think the old man would have wanted Nina as Nash's wife?"

Sally continued, "I'm laying it out here today. Tell Nina to divorce my son quickly, or don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Get out now!" Julia, usually amicable and never involved in conflicts, was truly angered by Sally's behavior today.

Not only was she disregarded as a person, but Sally had also the audacity to come knocking on her door!

This was no behavior of a lady. It was downright vulgar!

After driving Sally out, Julia immediately called Nina. "Nina, did not you tell me last time that you and Nash were planning to divorce? Have you set a date yet?"

Since they were considering divorce, it was better to act sooner rather than later to avoid further entanglements with unreasonable people like Sally, which could lead to wrongful accusations.

However, Julia never expected to hear Nash's voice from the phone, "Nina and I haven't set a date for the divorce, and we are not going to divorce."

Nash's expression darkened. Even Julia seemed to want him and Nina to divorce!

Though surprised, Julia quickly retorted after a few seconds of silence: "Nash, whether you have plans or not, now that I've made this call, you better hurry up. I can't deal with your mother's kind of people!"
