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.

    Nyla looked up and saw the deep sadness in Damon's eyes, which caused a sharp pang in her chest.She reached out and hugged him, whispering, "Yes, as long as the three of us are together, we'll be okay."The two held each other in silence, as if time had frozen in that moment.After a while, a knock came at the door.Damon released Nyla and called out, "Come in."Spencer entered and reported, "Mr. Sumner, the employees' salaries and severance pay have been disbursed. They'll pack their things and leave by tonight. The shareholders have also taken their shares and left."As he spoke, his eyes reddened. He had never imagined the company he'd worked at for so many years would one day face bankruptcy.If it weren't for Henry leaking so much confidential data, Prospectus Technology wouldn't have ended up like this.Damon, looking weary, pinched the bridge of his nose.

    "For how long?" Nyla asked.Seeing the worry in her eyes, Damon stroked her head, answering in a slightly hoarse voice, "Don't worry. With you and Buddy here, I won't do anything foolish. I promise."Nyla bit her lip, her concern evident."I promise," Damon said again, his tone firm. "If I left you and Buddy behind, I'd be the most selfish person alive. Trust me, okay?"Looking into his serious gaze, Nyla hesitated before finally nodding. "Alright. I'll be in the living room. If you get hungry, just let me know.""Okay. But don't wait up for me. I might sleep in the study tonight. Get some rest," Damon replied."Alright," Nyla conceded.Damon turned and walked toward the study, his steps heavy.Nyla's worry deepened as she watched his retreating figure. She was genuinely afraid that he might not be able to cope.For now, all she could do was trust him. Prospectus Technology's abrupt collapse was something he needed time to process and accept.After Damon disappeared around th

    Nyla Jayston was in her third month of trying to conceive when she saw a message on her husband Clark Sumner's phone from a contact named "Jordyn Cheatham".Jordyn: [I think my new nightgown is a bit tight. Why don't you come over and check if it fits?]Attached was a selfie of a woman in a deep V-neck red slip dress, her cleavage partly exposed, exuding seduction.Nyla's grip on the phone tightened. She scrolled up and found Clark and Jordyn's previous exchanges to be strictly work-related, which made her frown.'Was the text sent by mistake? Or…'A hand wrapped around Nyla's waist from behind, breaking her thoughts.Clark pressed his warm body against hers and gently nibbled her earlobe. "Honey, I'm all cleaned up. Do you want to do it on the couch or the bed?"Before Nyla could respond, Clark picked her up and laid her on the couch, his tall frame looming over her."Since you're not saying anything, I'll choose. Let's do it on the couch," Clark said, his voice husky and his

    Nyla downed her drink in one gulp. She had never imagined Clark would betray her. Seeing him in bed with another woman felt like a dagger through her heart."I just can't believe it. He loved you so much. He didn't seem like the type to cheat. Maybe there's a misunderstanding," Valarie suggested.Nyla let out a cold laugh. "I saw it with my own eyes. How could that be a misunderstanding?"The room fell silent.Watching Nyla drink like there was no tomorrow, Valarie grabbed the glass from her hand. "Even if he cheated, you shouldn't punish yourself by getting drunk. What are you going to do now?""I'm getting a divorce. Just thinking about him with that woman makes me sick."Upon seeing the defiance in Nyla’s red eyes, Valarie's heart ached. "Don't think about it now. You need to rest. Decide what to do next once you’re calm. I'll take you home."Nyla shook her head. "No... I don't want to go back."Returning to that house would only bring back the sickening images of Clark’s be

    On Nyla's way back, she hesitated for a long time before finally messaging Damon, someone whose contact she had had for three years but had never contacted.Nyla: [Uncle Damon... Can we pretend tonight never happened? I was really drunk and went to the wrong room.]She waited for a long time, but there was no response from Damon. Frowning, she sent another message.Nyla: [?]As soon as she sent it, a red exclamation mark appeared: [You are no longer friends with this user. Please send a friend request to continue chatting.]Nyla bit her lip. Damon had deleted her. He must not want to bring this up again. Relieved, she finally felt a bit of peace.…When Nyla got home, it was already past 6:00 a.m.As soon as she opened the door, she saw Clark sitting on the sofa. He turned sharply at the sound of the door, his eyes bloodshot from a sleepless night."Where were you last night? I called you dozens of times. Why didn’t you answer?"Clark stood up and walked quickly toward her, r

    Nyla froze for a moment, then struggled desperately. Just the thought of Clark kissing another woman the night before filled her with disgust and rage."Let go!"Her struggles were futile against Clark, who only tightened his grip around her waist.As she fought, her towel loosened, revealing her body. His gaze darkened, and he felt a rush of desire.Their bodies were pressed tightly together, and Nyla quickly noticed the change in Clark. Furious, she bit him hard, tasting blood in their mouths.Instead of letting go, Clark's other hand slipped under Nyla's towel. She had nothing on underneath, having just come out of the shower. She stiffened and struggled even more fiercely."Clark, get off me!"Clark ignored Nyla, his fingers teasing her sensitive spots. "Nyla, you need me too, don't you?"Nyla’s struggles were in vain, and she grew increasingly desperate. As Clark positioned himself, she closed her eyes in despair. "Clark, don't make me hate you."Clark halted abruptly. Se

    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

    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

    "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

    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
