It would be more convenient for her to switch to an ordinary one, especially the car used by the helpers for grocery runs. After cleaning her wound, Nina walked out of Nash's office. She was getting ready to leave work.
Eve was waiting outside, and as soon as she saw Nina, she immediately called out, "Sister-in-law!" Her voice immediately drew everyone's attention. The people in the office were still there, and upon hearing Eve's voice, they all looked at her with confusion.
With so many eyes staring at her as if trying to see through her, Nina instinctively tensed up. Before Eve could say "sister-in-law" for the second time, Nina covered her mouth.

"Don't callthat," Nina whispered, "This is a workplace." Eve did not understand, "Why can't I call you sister-in-law? Is it strange?" Nina explained, "It's not appropriate. Let's talk outside." She pulled Eve out. Her situation was a bit awkward now. Speople knew she was Nash's wife, but the company's employees did not. If Eve kept calling her sister-in-law one after another, wouldn't it raise suspicions? "Sister-in-law," Eve called out again outside.
Nina looked at her, "Aren't you going back?" Eve said, "Someone will cto pickup. Before that, I want to spend more twith you." "Why do you want to stay with me?" Nina didn't understand. "I'm about to leave work too." "Because you saved me," Eve thought for a moment. "You saved me, and I'll never forget that favor for the rest of my life. It was my fault before." "Does that change your opinion of me?" Nina asked with a smile, surprised that her act of saving Eve had dispelled her prejudice.
"Yeah, before I didn't understand you, but now I know you're not like that." "Not like what?" "Just...," Eve whispered again, "a bad woman..." Nina pondered Eve had a good relationship with Stella, and she might have heard a lot of gossip about Nina. It was true that before knowing someone, one could easily be misled by others' words. Nina could understand.
Moreover, Eve was straightforward and righteous. She was not inherently bad. She just lacked experience and could not see through people's hearts.
"Do you remember what I said on your grandfather's birthday?" Nina looked at her.
Eve was a bit puzzled.
"I forgive you," Nina reiterated. "I haven't suffered any loss so it's not too late."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith her forgiveness, Eve beceven happier. She clasped Nina's arm with both hands. "You forgive me? Thank you, you're really kind. I want to hang out with you from now on Nina could not help but chuckle at her innocence. "You think it's that easy? Nope, it's not that simple." "Huh? Can't I hang out with you?" Eve thought Nina was biased against her.
"Not exactly," Nina felt she was too naïve. Being too trusting like this would only lead to trouble in the future.
However, she retracted her words.
Keeping a pure heart was not m necessarily a bad thing. If she said too much at once, Eve probably would not be able to accept it. "How about we have dinner together later?" Nina invited her.
"Sure, I would love to have dinner with you."
Eve was quite happy. She had not expected Nina to forgive her so quickly She still figured that even if N she said a bunch of nice things, it might not necessarily guarantee forgiveness from Nina. It was already after work hours.
