Nyla paused and turned to look at Emerald. "What is it?""I heard Robin went to see you today," Emerald said."Yeah. What about it?" Nyla responded.Emerald pressed her lips together before speaking sternly. "He's Kajer's second-largest shareholder and the head of R&D. Try not to offend him. If he approaches you, avoid conflict."Nyla found this amusing. "You should be telling him that. I didn't even know who he was until today. He's the one who came looking for trouble.""I don't care. Just don't provoke him," Emerald repeated.Seeing Emerald's cold expression, Nyla lowered her gaze and spoke evenly. "That's not happening. I won't go looking for a fight, but I'm not just going to sit there and take it if he comes after me."Emerald frowned. "I didn't put you in that company to make enemies.""Oh, so you put me there to be a punching bag?" Nyla retorted.Emerald fell silent, and an awkward tension settled between them.Finally, Filipe spoke up. "Madam, your next meeting is ab

"Ms. Kinsey, Madam is in a bad mood today. If she says or does anything unpleasant, try to endure it to avoid unnecessary trouble," Filipe reminded her."Got it," Nyla replied.…Dinner that night was tense.Emerald sat at the head of the table, her face so dark it seemed a storm was brewing.Even the usually chatty Delia was unusually quiet, keeping her head down and eating timidly, not daring to crack a single joke.Nyla remained indifferent, acting as if she noticed nothing. She ate at her usual pace, unbothered by the heavy atmosphere.Halfway through her meal, she set down her utensils and announced, "I'm done."Just as she stood to leave, Emerald spoke in a cold voice. "Wait. I need to talk to you later."At this, Nyla sat back down, casually pulling out her phone and starting a zombie-shooting game.Delia glanced at her from the side, her eyes flashing with dissatisfaction at how Nyla seemed unaffected by Emerald's mood.She could understand why Emerald didn't like Ny

Nyla exited the chat app, set her phone aside, and contemplated whether or not to follow through with the engagement.The prospect of moving out of the estate was a huge incentive. However, if Emerald went back on her word, Nyla would have no recourse.While she was lost in thought, a sudden, urgent knock interrupted her.She rose and opened the door to find a flustered maid. "Ms. Kinsey, Madam wants you in the main hall immediately."Seeing the maid's ashen face, Nyla felt a sinking sensation in her gut. She asked quietly, "What happened?"The maid hesitated, as if struggling to find the right words. "I-It's Mr. Nixon... You'll understand when you get there."Without further questioning, Nyla hurried to the hall.Upon entering, she saw Emerald sitting on the sofa, her expression as dark as a thundercloud. Delia sat beside her, crying.Nyla took a seat across from Emerald.Before Nyla could speak, Emerald did. "Brian had an accident. I'm leaving for the south first thing in th

Darcy nodded. "Alright. I'll contact you once I get any updates.""Mm. Darcy, I'm counting on you," Mary replied.After Darcy left, Mary returned to the bedside, sitting down and clasping her hands together in prayer. She gazed at the unconscious, pale-faced Edward, hoping that Darcy would succeed this time.If he failed, Emerald would never let her or her son, Vik, go.…Back in her bedroom, Nyla couldn't shake off a growing sense of unease, though she wasn't sure why.She reached for her phone, about to contact Damon, when she suddenly heard urgent footsteps approaching.Before she could react, the door burst open, and several men in black stormed in.A maid from the estate stood behind them.Nyla tightened her grip on her phone and demanded coldly, "Who are you?!"The maid pointed at her and told the leader of the men in black, "She's Emerald's other daughter."The leader nodded, and in an instant, the men swarmed her, restraining her tightly.In the struggle, Nyla's pho

Nyla pressed her lips together and said nothing."Hey, why aren't you answering me? Say something!" Delia exclaimed."I don't feel like talking," Nyla replied flatly. "If you have the energy to waste, use it to think of a way out of here."Delia pouted. "I don't need to. Mom will definitely come save me, and Darcy wouldn't dare do anything to me."But you? That's another story. You always argue with her, so she might just leave you here."Nyla ignored her childish remark and leaned against the cold wall, eyes closed.The fact that Darcy had locked them up instead of harming them right away meant he likely planned to use them as bargaining chips against Emerald. As long as Emerald hadn't returned yet, they were probably safe.Delia grumbled to herself for a while. Seeing that Nyla had no intention of responding, she eventually fell silent as well.…After hearing about Brian's car accident, Andre immediately sent a message to Nyla, but there was no response.An hour passed.S

After Ross' secretary left, he turned to Damon. "Damon, don't worry. I won't let Ms. Kinsey come to any harm."Damon nodded. "Thank you, Ross.""If it weren't for you back then, I'd already be dead. I should be the one thanking you. Right now, the most important thing is getting Ms. Kinsey out safely," Ross replied.Damon hummed in agreement.…By the time Emerald arrived outside the operating room of a private hospital in the south, Brian's surgery had just ended.Seeing him lying on the hospital bed, his face as pale as paper, Emerald felt her heart ache.She turned to the doctor beside her. "How is he?""The surgery was successful. He should wake up in a few hours," the doctor answered.Hearing this, Emerald finally let out a sigh of relief.Just as she was about to speak, her phone started ringing from inside her bag.Seeing it was Filipe calling, she frowned and declined the call."Thank you," Emerald told the doctor."No need to thank me. It's my job," the doctor rep

Darcy hung up.Emerald's face darkened with fury. Taking a deep breath to steady herself, she turned and walked toward Brian's hospital room.George was standing guard outside, looking almost as bad as Brian himself.As Emerald approached, she took in the sight of his injuries—his face and body covered in wounds. Though bandaged, blood still seeped through the gauze, making for a horrifying scene."George, what happened? Why did the accident occur?" she asked.George's face was pale, his voice grim. "Ms. Kinsey, I don't think Mr. Nixon's accident was just an accident. I believe someone orchestrated it."Emerald's expression turned ice-cold. "Do you have any proof?"George shook his head. "No, just a gut feeling. The driver who hit us seemed to know Mr. Nixon was in the back seat. He deliberately rammed into the rear of the car. That's why the driver and I only suffered minor injuries, while Mr. Nixon's condition was severe enough to require amputation."Emerald tightened her gr

Darcy's eyes flickered. If he released Nyla while still holding onto Delia, he would retain enough leverage to negotiate with Emerald.Seeing Darcy waver, Ross pressed on. "I'll give you three minutes to think about it. If you don't release her, Mary and Vik will suffer the consequences."At Ross' threat, Darcy remained silent for a moment before finally saying, "Fine, I agree."He turned to his men and ordered coldly, "Go get Nyla.""Yes, sir!" one of them said.…Nyla and Delia were leaning against the wall in the basement, half-asleep, when the door suddenly swung open.Two men dressed in black strode in and headed straight for Nyla.Delia, watching with amusement, made no move to speak up for her. She could barely protect herself, let alone someone else.Besides, as Emerald's most beloved daughter, she was certain Darcy's men wouldn't dare harm her.Nyla's gaze turned icy. "Where are you taking me?"The men in black didn't respond. They simply seized her and led her away

Delia stared at Emerald, her eyes wide with disbelief, filled with confusion and helplessness. "I just wanted to move out. When did I say I wanted to sever ties with you?""Moving out is the same as severing ties, isn't it? I told you I wouldn't give you another penny. After you leave, are you really going to stay in contact with me?" Emerald asked.Delia was momentarily choked by Emerald's words. It took her a while to respond. "I just want to become independent, not sever ties with you."Of course, deep down, she also wanted to prove that the man she loved wasn't wrong. She had decided long ago that she would never marry anyone but Andre.Emerald didn't look at her and said nothing further.Delia sat down, continuing to stare at her. "Mom, how did you suddenly collapse and end up in the hospital? Do you have any test results? Let me see them."Emerald's tone remained cold. "Don't worry. I'm not going to die.""Mom, don't say such ominous things!" Delia whined.Emerald pursed

Emerald shook her head, wanting to refuse, but suddenly her vision went black, and she fainted.When she regained consciousness, she found herself in a hospital room. She stared at the ceiling for a few seconds, recalling how she had collapsed in the study earlier.Fully awake now, she sat up slowly and noticed an IV in her arm. She couldn't help but frown.The door to the room opened, and Filipe walked in.When he saw that Emerald had woken up, a look of relief flashed in his eyes. "Madam, you're finally awake! You've been unconscious for an entire day!"Emerald could hardly believe what she was hearing. Her frown intensified, and she asked, "How could I have been unconscious for so long?""The doctor said you've been sleep-deprived for a long time, and with the recent emotional strain, it caused you to cough up blood.“From now on, you need to get at least eight to ten hours of sleep each day, or your health will continue to decline," Filipe explained.Emerald's face darkened

"We'll see how long you can hold out!" Emerald challenged.Delia sneered. "Fine, you said it. Don't go back on your word!""Don't worry, I won't." With that, Emerald turned sharply and walked away.Once in her study, she sank into a chair. Her icy expression slowly turned to one of exhaustion.She had spent years fighting to become the head of the Nixons. But now, one of her children had lost a leg in a plot, and the other was infatuated with a man utterly unworthy of her.For the first time, she felt like a failure.Even though she had finally gained control of the Nixons, what was the point? She was still alone.Lost in thought, Filipe hurriedly knocked and entered. "Madam, Mr. Jayston was secretly taken from the hospital!"Emerald's angry voice echoed. "What were those people at the hospital doing? How could they let him be taken, with so many people watching?"Harrison was her only leverage over Nyla. If he disappeared, she would lose control of Nyla. But, as she considere

Suddenly, the door to the private room was pushed open, and several men in black rushed in.When Delia saw they were Emerald's subordinates, she immediately set her wine glass down, her face contorting in a grimace. "What are you doing here?!"Seeing the group, Andre looked surprised for a moment before raising an eyebrow. He swirled his wine glass without saying a word.The leader stepped forward, bowing slightly before addressing Delia. "Ms. Nixon, Madam sent us to bring you back to the estate."Delia's expression changed, panic and fear filling her eyes. The moment those men entered, she had a sinking feeling, and now it was confirmed.Emerald had forbidden her from associating with Andre, and now that Delia was sneaking around with him, her mother must be furious. She could already imagine the anger awaiting her return to the estate.Grounding her teeth, Delia stubbornly said, "I'm not going back!"The men in black exchanged a glance before one spoke slowly. "Madam said if y

There was a long silence on the other end.After a while, Filipe spoke. Yes... so Madam broke his leg too."Brian gripped the phone tightly, as if he were about to crush it. He had lost his own leg because of Darcy's scheming, along with the opportunity to inherit the Nixons. Yet Emerald only broke Darcy's leg?To Brian, that wasn't enough. He wanted Darcy to suffer so much that death would seem preferable to living."Got it." With that, Brian hung up.The maid, trembling, watched as he clutched her phone, afraid he might throw it in anger.Fortunately, Brian soon handed the phone back to her. "Leave."The maid nodded quickly and left the room.Once alone, Brian picked up his phone and dialed a number. "Bring Darcy to my villa's basement. He lost a leg, don't treat him, but don't let him die."After ending the call, Brian glanced at the empty space beside his bed where his leg used to be. A ruthless glint flashed in his eyes.It wasn't long before Emerald heard that Brian had

Who would let a disabled man inherit the Nixons?Emerald's expression shifted slightly as she gritted her teeth. "Why not?""Even if you're willing, the other members of the Nixons wouldn't be," Brian retorted.Before his accident, many had already criticized his lack of ability and opposed him inheriting the family business. Now that he'd lost a leg, those people were even less likely to let him take over.No matter how hard he worked from now on, he would never inherit the Nixons.Emerald's face darkened. "It's normal for others to give up on you, but if you give up on yourself, that's it—you'll be beyond saving."With that, she stopped talking and turned to leave.Watching her go, Brian subconsciously clenched the blanket in his hands. He didn't want to give up on himself, but the situation was forcing him to.The more he thought about it, the darker his mood became.…Emerald returned to her study.It wasn't long before Filipe knocked and entered. "Madam, Mr. Salter is h

After the maid left, Warren dialed Emerald's number. "I heard Edward woke up. Is that true?"Emerald, on her way back to the estate, furrowed her brow. "Yes.""So, what's your plan now? Once Edward recovers, he'll want you to return control of the Nixons to him," Warren asked.A flash of frustration crossed Emerald's face. "We'll see. I have things to take care of, so I'll talk to you later."She hung up and set her phone down, still unsettled.The land issue remained unresolved, and now Edward had woken up. The people who were already unhappy with her because of the land might side with Edward. She needed to come up with a solution, or things could spiral out of control quickly.She had finally secured her position. Even if Edward recovered, she wasn't going to give it up without a fight.As she thought it over, George's call came through. "Ms. Kinsey, we've captured Darcy. Should we bring him to the estate now?"A cold glint crossed Emerald's eyes. "Yes."…Upon returning t

"I'll handle things with Nyla's father. Now that my aunt is looking for you and Nyla, you two should stay in and avoid being seen by anyone for now," Alexander said.Damon nodded. "Got it."Just as Alexander was about to speak, his phone rang.His face instantly darkened after he answered the call. He stood up and said, "I have to go. If you need anything, just call me."With that, he quickly left.Once he stepped out of Damon's villa, he got into the car and told the driver, "Take me to the Kinseys."…An hour later, Alexander's car arrived at the Kinsey residence. He got out and rang the doorbell.When the maid saw him, she hesitated. After all, Warren had given strict orders to cut ties with Alexander. If he showed up again, they were instructed not to open the door.Noticing the maid's hesitation, Alexander furrowed his brow and said in a low voice, "Open the door."After a brief pause, the maid nervously looked at him and replied, "Mr. Alexander, it's not that I don't wa

If there were nothing special, Vik wouldn't possibly go to Chyland."We're not sure yet, but he's the only one going for now," George replied.Emerald furrowed her brow, sensing that something was off. She said coldly, "Stop him. Don't let him leave the country.""Understood," George answered."Have you found any leads on Nyla? Any clues?" Emerald asked."No, not yet," George replied.Emerald instructed, "Keep looking."After hanging up, Emerald placed her phone on the desk, her face clouded with anger.Where were Nyla and Damon hiding? Even George couldn't track them down. It seemed she would have to speak with Ross.…The next morning, Emerald went straight to Ross' residence.When Ross saw her, he smiled, appearing in a good mood. "Emerald, what brings you here today?"Emerald got straight to the point. "Ross, where have you hidden my daughter?"Ross raised an eyebrow in surprise. "If I'm not mistaken, didn't your people rescue Ms. Nixon from Darcy already?"Emerald sn
