Nash returned from outside, his expression indifferent, as he listened to others report on work. "Mr. York, everything is arranged for one o'clock in the afternoon," someone reported promptly.
Nash glanced towards Nina, who was busy nearby, and coldly called out, "Nina." Nina hurried over, "Mr. York." "If you're free this afternoon, calong," Nash stated bluntly.
Everyone present was surprised by his decision. This kind of task was tough and tiresome, and no woman would willingly go. It was usually assigned to men. Nina was the only woman present.
With the blazing sun outside, and considering Nina's attire - a dress and heels - it wasn't convenient for her to squat down or walk. It wasn't suitable for her to go.

"I'll accompany you, Nina," Taylor offered to share the burden with her.
"No need," Nina declined. "We have enough manpower. An extra person won't make much of a difference. You stay in the office." At one o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun was at its peak, the sanitation workers on the streets were still busy. Nina carried the water and walked towards the road. After just a short while, she was sweating profusely.
She handed them out one by one. Most of the sanitation workers were elderly, and they expressed gratitude and thanks as she approached them. After she had handed out several boxes, one of the men passing by said, "Young lady, it's a charity event. Can you spare swater for us too?" These men were passersby, and upon seeing Nina in a skirt and stockings, they cast lecherous glances, using the pretext of getting water to flirt. Nina knew what they were up to. She stepped back a few paces and frowned. "The water is for the sanitation workers." Search The Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
"This is discrimination," one of the men retorted.
Their gaze traveled up and down Nina's body, making her uncomfortable. She was firm in her response. "Can you read the large letters on our vehicle? The water is only for the sanitation workers!" They seemed inclined to get handsy with Nina, but before they could make a move, someone intervened. Most of the people distributing water were men, and they cto Nina's aid when they saw her being harassed.
The men causing trouble quickly backed off.
"Nina, are you okay?" a concerned colleague asked.
"I'm fine. Once we're done distributing here, we'll call it a day," Nina replied, wiping away her sweat.
Coincidentally, someone happened to be observing all of this.

In the office, a handsman in a suit with fair skin couldn't help but smile as he glanced at Nash. Nash, what's the point of you just standing there staring? What good does it do? Why don't you head downstairs and stare?" He was a friend of Nash's.
Nash stood by the window, but his gaze was fixed outside, watching Nina working diligently downstairs Even when she was delivering water to the sanitation workers, she maintained great manners, never showing any disdain due to differences in status. However, there were a few passersby with poor manners. His gaze sharpened when he noticed someone staring at Nina, making him even more displeased.
"Mind your own business," Nash said coldly, shooting a sidelong glance at the man.
"Did you skip our gathering yesterday because of your so-called wife?" Hunter Hall sipped his wine as he spoke. They had agreed to meet for drinks yesterday, but Nash bailed halfway through.
Nash frowned, unsure of what was happening to himself. He had never cared about what Nina didor said e before. He at Nina had never spared her an extra glance. Now, he found himself getting irritated by her words, behaving unlike his usual self.
