When he applied for the job, Quincy made it clear to him about the relationship between Nina and himself.
Since getting into the car, Nash had been chain-smoking, a clear indicator of the tension between them. Moreover, Nash's instructions to his subordinate about keeping tabs on Nina, along with his recent attempt to open the car door, did not go unnoticed.

I know I shouldn't speak out of turn, but I once had regrets. My wife and I were like this. We had conflicts, misunderstandings, and I never apologized, nor did she explain. Later, when I left hto earn a living, she had someone else's child. And then, I lost her forever." Nash pursed his lips, then after a few seconds of silence, he spoke in a low, commanding tone, "Drive." Such a situation was unimaginable for him. He would never allow Nina to bear another man's child! At that moment, although Nina was in the car with Scott, sitting in the back seat with him, she maintained sdistance.

Sally sneered, "I don't have a daughter like you! You haven't even divorced Nash yet, and you've already found a new man? Who's foolish enough to be your lover?" Nina pursed her lips. "Sally, please
watch your words. He's just a friend, and besides, Nash interacts with the opposite sex much more than do. How cI've never heard you calling anyone else a homewrecker?" As Nina spoke, she met Sally's gaze directly. At that moment, Nina remained calm and composed.
