Nyla walked over and sat across from Damon. "I heard the Galaxy chip that Nyce Tech launched today was developed using data stolen from Prospectus Technology's Agihop 6th Gen. Is that true?"Damon frowned. "That's a company matter—you don't need to worry about it."Seeing his reaction, Nyla understood that what Leon had said was likely true."Have you identified who leaked the company's data?" she asked."Not yet. I'm having my team look into employees who recently had contact with Nyce Tech," Damon replied.Upon noticing the fatigue on his face, a flash of concern crossed her eyes."Focusing only on employees won't help. Someone who could leak all of the Agihop 6th Gen data to Nyce Tech must hold considerable influence in the company. Have you looked into Prospectus Technology's shareholders?" she asked softly.Damon's expression darkened. "Not yet. But if we don't find anything with the employees, I'll have Spencer investigate the shareholders next."Prospectus Technology's s

To Nyla, being with Gabriel felt just as wrong as any taboo.Gabriel's smile turned cold. "Nyla, once Damon's company collapses, you'll come back to me."Nyla met his gaze, her words deliberate. "First of all, I was never with you, so there's no 'coming back.' Second, if being forced to be with you is my only option, I'd rather die."With each word, Gabriel's face darkened. By the end of her speech, the veins in his forehead bulged, and his clenched fists trembled with restraint."You hate me that much?" he asked."Yes," Nyla confirmed.His past harassment and ongoing persistence filled her with nothing but disgust.If Gabriel truly cared for her, he wouldn't pressure her like this—forcing her to be with him against her will.Gabriel remained silent, but the shadow in his eyes deepened.Whether Nyla hated or ignored him, he vowed he would do whatever it took to have her by his side.Soon after, Mason emerged.Without a glance at Gabriel, Nyla took Mason's hand and left.Gab

"Well then, I'll wish you success, Mr. Sumner. I've got other guests to attend to, so I'll excuse myself," Gabriel said, turning and walking away.Damon's gaze followed his retreating figure, his expression icy as he downed the rest of his drink in one gulp.Damon was certain that Gabriel's smug grin wouldn't last much longer.Setting his glass down, Damon left the event, only to run into Tom at the entrance.Tom's smile carried a trace of mockery. "Mr. Sumner, long time no see. I hear Prospectus Technology's chips have been causing you quite a headache lately. Shouldn't you be busy dealing with that instead of attending parties?"Five years ago, Tom had approached Damon with a proposal for a business partnership. Damon hadn't even spared him a glance.Now, Tom was savoring the opportunity to watch Prospectus Technology falter.Damon's face remained impassive. "It seems Prospectus Technology's business troubles are something you've been monitoring closely, Mr. Genge."While you

The next morning, Spencer entered Damon's office with a grim expression, holding a document. "Mr. Sumner, you need to see this."Damon took the file and flipped through it, his face growing colder with every page."Mr. Sumner, we've found evidence of Mr. Wakeham having close contact with Gabriel, but there's no definitive proof that he leaked the Agihop 6th Gen data," Spencer reported.Damon's tone was flat but decisive. "It's him."Only someone from the management team could have accessed and leaked the Agihop 6th Gen data to Gabriel.Damon had initially dismissed the possibility of betrayal at the management level, assuming they wouldn't jeopardize their own interests. Now, it was clear the incentives Gabriel offered had been too tempting to resist."What's the next step? Should we involve the police?" Spencer asked.Henry Wakeham was a key shareholder, holding 10% of Prospectus Technology's shares. Over the years, he'd appeared loyal to the company, making this revelation all

As Nyla knocked and opened the office door, she found Damon engrossed in his documents.Hearing her familiar footsteps, Damon lifted his head. A smile softened his features as their eyes met."You're here," he said warmly.Nyla placed the packed breakfast on his desk and gently urged, "Take a break and eat something. No matter how busy you are, your health comes first."Damon didn't have much of an appetite, but he didn't want to worry her. Setting the document aside, he walked over to sit across from her.As she handed him the cutlery, Nyla noticed the dark circles under his eyes and the rough stubble on his jaw. Her heart ached at the sight."Eat first. When you're done, I'll help you shave," she offered with a tender smile.Damon nodded. "Alright."As he began eating the omelet, Nyla stood and headed toward the lounge. The moment she turned her back, her eyes welled up with tears.On the way to the office, she had received a call from Valarie, who had warned her there was a

Damon raised a hand to stop him, his voice low and hoarse. "Leave me for now."Spencer lingered for a moment before speaking again. "Mr. Sumner, the most critical thing right now is to contain Henry. If we don't, Prospectus Technology could genuinely collapse—""Notify the shareholders. We're holding a meeting at 10:00 a.m.," Damon interrupted."Understood," Spencer replied.Once alone, Damon walked to the office window. As he stared at the vast ocean in the distance, his face remained expressionless.Whenever he faced a problem in the past, this view often helped him clear his mind. He knew this might be one of the last times he could stand here, gazing at the sea.…At 10:00 a.m., Prospectus Technology's shareholders convened.Every shareholder was present—except Henry.Damon scanned the room, his gaze lingering on the visibly anxious faces of those seated.He spoke. "Prospectus Technology is facing potential bankruptcy. Prepare yourselves."His words landed like a thunder

Upon hearing those words, everyone's expressions turned grim, and the meeting room plunged into heavy silence.After a moment, Damon spoke. "For now, return to your departments and prepare comprehensive reports on your projects. I'll instruct the legal team to file a lawsuit against Nyce Tech for illegally stealing Prospectus Technology's proprietary data."However, litigation could take a long time, and Prospectus Technology might not survive that wait."If Nyce Tech decided to drag this out, both companies could end up in ruins, leaving room for others to reap the rewards.The room remained silent.Seeing no objections, Damon said firmly, "If there's nothing else, this meeting is adjourned."With that, he stood and walked out.Back in his office, it wasn’t long before Spencer knocked and entered. "Mr. Sumner, Nyce Tech just reached out. Gabriel wants to meet with you."Damon’s face darkened.After a moment, he replied, "Tell him to come to my office at 2:00 p.m."...At pr

With that, Gabriel hung up.Prospectus Technology was struggling in vain.Soon, it would announce its bankruptcy, and Damon would revert to an average Joe. By then, Gabriel could do anything he wanted to him.…News of Prospectus Technology's imminent bankruptcy began circulating internally.At first, few believed it. But as rumors spread and the tension became palpable, employees and business partners grew uneasy.Prospectus Technology's partners began calling Damon, desperate for confirmation. But no matter how many times they tried, their calls went unanswered, leaving them increasingly convinced the rumors were true.Soon, partners began terminating contracts with Prospectus Technology.By the third day, most of the company's business agreements had been canceled.Adding fuel to the fire, the police reported that Henry had committed suicide while in custody.His death didn't change the facts. Damon had already handed over the evidence of Henry's collusion with Nyce Tech,

"That's more like it," Valarie chirped.Nyla couldn't help but say, "Valarie, stop bullying Brandon all the time."Brandon turned to her and sighed dramatically. "Aunt Nyla, since you mentioned it, I have to say something. You have no idea what I've been through these past six months, I— Ouch!"Before he could finish, Valarie pinched his waist. "What was that? Tell me, Brandon. Have you been unhappy these past six months?""N-No... I've been very happy..." Brandon winced."Have I bullied you then?" Valarie pressed."No..." Brandon murmured.Valarie huffed. "If not, then keep your mouth shut, or Nyla will really think I mistreat you." Brandon gave her a pitiful look, lowering his head like a scolded puppy.Before they married, Valarie had been gentle and beautiful in his eyes. But after marriage, he realized how wrong he had been.Gentle and beautiful? All an illusion.If he stayed out drinking and came home late, he'd have to choose between sleeping on the couch or outside.

Taking Mia to work was exhausting, but every time she smiled at Damon, it made everything worth it."She'll be fine. Didn't you just say she loves us both equally? She'll cry for a bit, but if you stop taking her to the office, she'll get used to being at home," Nyla reasoned.Seeing Nyla's determination, Damon finally relented. "Alright, we'll try it tomorrow. But if she cries too much, you'll have to take her to the office.""Deal!" Nyla said....After getting ready for work the next morning, Damon kissed Mia on the cheek and headed for the door.As soon as he changed his shoes at the entrance, she reached her little arms toward him, asking to be held. She had grown so accustomed to going to the office with him every day that it had become a reflex.Damon glanced at Nyla. "Nyla, maybe today we should—"Nyla interrupted, "Nope. You go to work. And if you're free for lunch, don't bother coming home. If you need to work late, no rush to come back either."Damon chuckled. "You'

"Brandon, from now on, I'm entrusting Valarie to you," Jonathan said. "She's been spoiled by us and can be a little willful at times. I hope you'll be patient with her in your marriage, and I wish you both a lifetime of happiness together."Brandon held Valarie's hand tightly, his expression solemn. "Dad, don't worry. I'll cherish her with all my heart."Jonathan nodded, stepping down from the stage. He discreetly wiped away his tears.After exchanging vows and rings, Valarie and Brandon sealed their love with a kiss, surrounded by cheers and applause.…On the way home from the wedding, Nyla glanced at Damon. "I saw Mr. Weir wipe his tears so many times today. When Bunny gets married, you'll definitely be just like him, sneaking off somewhere to cry."Damon's grip on the steering wheel tightened slightly, his gaze sharpening. "No one will ever be good enough for my daughter. If she never gets married, we'll take care of her for the rest of our lives."Nyla raised an eyebrow and

"Of course! When's the wedding?" Nyla asked.Valarie shook her head. "We haven't decided yet. He'll come to my house in a few days to discuss it with my parents."Nyla raised an eyebrow. "You're about to get really busy. Planning a wedding alone will take a lot of work.""Yeah, I'm already getting a headache just thinking about it," Valarie replied....For the next few months, Valarie was completely consumed by wedding preparations and work, barely having time to catch her breath.The wedding was set for August 8th, leaving them with less than six months to finalize everything.Valarie even traveled abroad several times to meet with designers and ensure her wedding dress was exactly what she wanted.Beyond the dress, she and Brandon spent hours discussing every detail—from the venue to the wedding favors and bouquet choices....After months of nonstop planning, the big day finally arrived.Valarie was already up, getting her hair and makeup done at 2:00 a.m.By the time N

Valarie looked up and saw the approaching glow.When the figure finally stopped in front of her, she realized it was Brandon.Frowning, she asked, "Where did you go? I waited so long for you. And what are you hiding behind your back?"Brandon flipped his phone face-down on the table, revealing the flowers he had hidden. Then he dropped to one knee."Valarie, I had planned a perfect proposal for you, but when you asked earlier about the meaning of wearing a wedding dress, I knew I couldn't wait any longer."Before I met you, my life revolved solely around work. I never paused for anyone—I never cared whether the sun was rising or setting, or if the moon was full or waning. But everything changed after I met you."I began cherishing the thought of greeting you every morning, sharing meals with you, and standing by your side for life."Valarie, I want every morning to begin with us waking up together, and every night to end with us holding each other as we fall asleep."Finally, B

Of course, every time they visited Valarie's home, Phoebe would subtly—or sometimes not so subtly—hint that they should get married.Brandon had always assumed Valarie wasn't interested in marriage since she never responded to those hints. He hadn't considered proposing.But today, seeing her so excited about picking out baby clothes made him start to imagine a future with her—building a family, raising a child.That thought filled his heart with warmth.After more than three hours of shopping, they finally left the mall, their arms full of bags.Once they loaded everything into the car, Valarie turned to Brandon. "I'm starving. Let's grab something to eat."Brandon nodded. "Sure. What are you in the mood for?""I'm not picky. Is there anything good around here? I don't feel like going too far," she replied.Brandon paused, then said, "There's a place with ethnic cuisine nearby. I went there once for a business meeting—it was pretty authentic. Want to give it a try?""Sounds g

Nyla was silent for a moment before nodding. "Alright. If you ever need Damon to help figure out Brandon's thoughts, just let me know.""I will. Don't worry about us, though. You just gave birth. Your main priority should be resting," Valarie said."Okay," Nyla replied.Valarie lingered in the bedroom for a while, but when she saw Nyla looking tired, she stood up and left.Downstairs, only Brandon was in the living room.Valarie walked over to him and asked, "Where's Damon?""He had something to take care of for work, so he went to the study. How's Aunt Nyla?" Brandon asked."She seems to be doing well, and the baby is adorable. Oh, right, I forgot to ask what the baby's name is. I only know her nickname is Bunny," Valarie said.Just thinking about Mia Sumner's cute little face made Valarie smile. She was already looking forward to the day the baby would call her godmother.A flicker of something crossed Brandon's eyes. "You really like kids, huh?""Of course! I've said befor

Once they were in the car, Nyla suddenly recalled Damon's phone call earlier. "By the way, what did Alexander want?"After a brief pause, Damon glanced at her. "He said Ms. Kinsey left you an inheritance and asked when we'd be able to go to Meristate to take care of it."Nyla pressed her lips together before replying, "Call him later and tell him to donate it or keep it for himself. I don't want it.""Alright," Damon replied.When they arrived home, Damon helped Nyla settle onto the couch, placing a pillow behind her back for support. Then, he said seriously, "Nyla, you've been through enough. Let's not have any more kids after this."During her first pregnancy with Mason, Damon hadn't been around, so he hadn't realized how difficult it was for her.Now, experiencing this pregnancy with her, every checkup and blood draw made his heart ache.Once Nyla gave birth, he planned to get a vasectomy. Two kids were enough for them.Nyla shot him a look. "This wasn't exactly planned, was

More than half an hour later, Nyla finally stirred from her nap.When she opened her eyes, she found Damon sitting by her bed, watching her. She froze for a moment, caught off guard.Rubbing her eyes, she realized he was still there and confirmed she wasn't dreaming.She slowly sat up, her voice still heavy with sleep. "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be in your study working?""I missed you, so I came to see you," Damon replied.Nyla narrowed her eyes. "You definitely have something to say if you're here all of a sudden."Damon chuckled, a little helpless. "I guess I can't fool you.""Of course not. I know you too well. Ever since I got pregnant, you've never come to see me like this in the afternoon," Nyla said."Alright. Go freshen up first, and I'll wait for you downstairs," Damon suggested."Okay," Nyla replied.After washing up, she went downstairs and sat beside Damon. "Alright, tell me. What's going on? You're acting all mysterious."Damon hesitated for a moment befo
