Nina glanced back at her, noticing the smile on her lips and the look of admiration in her eyes. She recognized that look-admiration, a desire to understand everything about him. She, too, wanted to be the one who understood him the most.

"I know him a little," Nina said casually. "So, what exactly do you want to know from me about him?"

Linda didn't hide anything, confessing to her openly, "I want to know everything. The more I understand him, the less likely I'll upset him."

Nina asked again, "So, you think if you understand him well, don't upset him, and make him satisfied with everything, he'll like you more?"

Linda blushed in embarrassment. "Is it that obvious to you? Does Mr. York also notice that I might have a bit of a crush on him?"

Nina remained silent, noticing that Linda did not conceal her own ambitions.

"It's just not right. He sees right through everything. If I try too hard to please him, will I seem desperate?" Linda pondered, wanting to become the one Mr. York admired the most. "I don't come from a prestigious background, yet he doesn't mind. Just being in the same space as him is good enough. If I want too much, it's just greed. Just being able to steal a few glances at him is already satisfying." But even so, that wasn't her ultimate goal.
