CHAPTER 170
CEO
Quincy glanced at Nash once more. âNina said it is on the left side of the walk-in closet. You can ask the helper to find.â
Nash furrowed his brows. âWhat about the overcoat? The one thatâs camel-colored?â
âThat coat is hanging in the wardrobe,â Nina added.
âNo need for a sweater, Iâll wear a suit. Find the blue striped tie,â Nash instructed.
Nina frowned. âWhich blue tie are you referring to? We have several.â
âThe one with vertical stripes.â
âItâs in the twenty-eighth slot of the tie box,â Nina promptly replied, anticipating Nashâs next question.
To avoid further inquiries, Nina decided to provide all the details. âMr. York, all your suits and shirts, except those at the dry cleanerâs, are in the wardrobe and easily accessible for the helper. As for the winter clothes, theyâre neatly stored in the walk-in closet. Iâve organized them by category, making it easy for the helper to find. The ties are also sorted and stored in separate compartments, with each tie color-coded There shouldnât be any confusion.â
Nina could quickly answer Nashâs questions, whether they were about coats, sweaters, or even specific ties. She was familiar with the wardrobe inside and out, even without being at the York residence. For three years, she had taken care of every aspect of Nashâs life â knowing his preferences, dressing style, and even remembering every watch he owned. She believed it was her duty as his secretary and as his wife.
When she spoke, silence fell on the other end. Seeing no response for a while, Nina asked again, âQuincy, is there anything else?â
Quincy, besides his surprise, showed no other expression, his gaze fixed on Nash.
Nash remained silent, his displeasure evident on his face, blaming Nina for not finding any fault with him.
At that moment, Nina realized that Nash was deliberately picking a fight. She didnât want to say more and simply said, âIf thereâs nothing else, then Iâll hang up.â Without waiting for Quincy to respond, Nina ended the call.
After the call, Nina finally breathed a sigh of relief. In the past, whenever Nash needed something, she would immediately find it and have it sent to him as quickly as possible. Actually, refusing Nash wasnât that difficult. She just needed to overcome her inner demons.
âMr. York, Nina hung up.â
Quincy cautiously stated the fact, unable to comprehend Ninaâs unusually cold behavior this time. It was not at all like her usual self. Additionally, Nash appeared even more unwell than before, as if the hospital could engulf him at any moment. Nash felt annoyed; Ninaâs abrupt termination of the call only added to his agitation.
Before long, Nina received another call from Quincy. It seemed like there was no end to the calls.
âNina, Mr. York just asked the helper, and she was unable to locate the sweater he likes to wear. He may need you to personally search for it.â
Nina furrowed her brows tightly. Couldnât find it? How was that even possible?
âNina, Mr. York needs it urgently. The
room is freezing, and Iâm concerned he might catch a cold. He doesnât look well, and if he gets a fever, it could lead to an infection in his wound. Quincy pleaded once more, sincerely. âYou know how particular Mr. York can be. You understand him better than anyone. Without you, he would be quite uncomfortable. Heâs still in the hospital. I hope you will consider Mr. Yorkâs well-being this time.â
Hesitating Nina listened to Quincyâs words. Despite her indifference, she couldnât ignore the injury Nash had suffered for her sake. With this in mind, she responded, âI understand. I will go home and bring it to him.â
