"Part of it is because of that, but the main reason is that I have something more important to do," Nyla replied.Melody sounded a bit disappointed. "I don't know if the new research scientist will be easy to get along with..."Nyla smiled and gently reassured her, "No matter how the new person is, just focus on doing a good job yourself.""That's all we can do," Melody remarked.…In the afternoon, Nyla went to Prospectus Technology to pack up her things.The new drug researcher hadn't arrived yet, so Melody was taking a break from experiments and reading literature in the office.Just as Nyla was about to leave, Melody hugged her tightly. "Nyla, even if you've resigned, we have to keep in touch!"Seeing Melody's reluctance, Nyla nodded. "Okay. I probably won't be able to help you with pursuing Gabriel, but good luck.""Alright," Melody replied.After saying goodbye to Melody, Nyla was about to leave when the office door was suddenly pushed open.They both looked up to see

Spencer stepped aside and called Damon, briefly explaining the situation before ending the call."Mr. Sumner has agreed to call the police," he informed after hanging up.The police arrived promptly.As Nyla and Melody gave their statements, Gabriel walked into the office. Upon seeing the police, his eyes widened, but he quickly masked his surprise."Nyla, Melody, what's going on?" he asked.Spencer stepped forward and said, "Mr. Hackett, the experimental data from Ms. Jayston's project has been leaked. Have you noticed anyone suspicious entering or leaving the lab recently?"Gabriel thought for a moment and shook his head. "No. It's usually just the three of us in the lab."Spencer nodded. "Alright. You'll need to provide a statement as well."After they finished their statements, two hours had passed. They were instructed not to return to the lab and to wait at home for the investigation results, remaining available for further police questioning.As they left Prospectus Tec

Nyla walked to the door and looked through the peephole, surprised to see Gabriel. They had just parted ways not long ago—why was he back?As Nyla hesitated whether to open the door, Gabriel's deep voice came from outside. "Nyla, after I got home, I suddenly remembered a detail that might be related to the data leak."Nyla's expression tensed. She opened the door slightly and asked, "What detail?"Gabriel's gaze hardened as Nyla had only cracked the door open and hadn't invited him in."Once, when Melody and I were having dinner, she received a call midway through and then mentioned she had left something in the lab and rushed off. I thought, with work the next day, what could be so urgent that she needed to go back that night?" Gabriel suggested.A flicker of realization crossed Nyla's face. "If she went back to copy the data and give it to Contelligence, she probably wouldn't have told you she was going to the lab. She'd likely have used some other excuse."Gabriel looked down,

Gabriel offered a slight smile. "Mr. Sumner, haven't you heard the saying that an older brother is like a father? Nyla is quite innocent, so as her older brother, it's natural for me to look after her."Gabriel and Damon locked eyes, and the atmosphere between them grew icy. They each understood the other's unspoken message.Damon didn't believe that a stepbrother would treat his stepsister as well as a real sibling. Furthermore, his investigation had shown that their relationship was poor.Upon recalling the auction where Gabriel had deliberately competed with him for The Lone Tear, Damon's expression darkened."In that case, I should consider you a brother as well," Damon suggested.Gabriel sneered. "I've never seen anyone as shameless as you."Nyla frowned at Damon. "Mr. Sumner, what exactly do you want to say? If you're finished, you can leave."After a moment of silence, Damon realized it wasn't the best time to continue the discussion. He said quietly, "We'll talk about th

Not long after Nyla's car hit the road, she sensed something was amiss. She deliberately changed directions several times, but the black car continued to follow her.She frowned in concern. It was clear that the unmarked car was tailing her.After a moment of consideration, she decided to turn around and head in the opposite direction from her home.…About ten minutes later, Nyla parked her car in front of the police station.The car following her finally realized something was wrong and tried to leave, but the police quickly stopped it.Officers swiftly detained the occupant of the car.Only after confirming her safety did Nyla get out of her vehicle."Ms. Jayston, please come with us to make a statement," an officer requested.Nyla nodded and glanced at the person being led into the police station. He appeared to be in his early 20s, with a square face and plain features—one of those faces that blended into a crowd.Nyla was certain she had never seen him before.The man

"Fine," Valarie conceded.As Nyla sat across from Valarie, the latter hesitated after taking a careful spoonful of oatmeal and asked, "Nyla... I didn't make too much of a scene last night after getting drunk, did I?"She vaguely remembered crying on Nyla's shoulder and being quite loud about it. It was so embarrassing...Nyla raised an eyebrow. "Now you're worried about being embarrassed?"Valarie could only look down in silence. If she had known she would be so out of control while drunk, she would have avoided alcohol altogether and not even gone to the bar last night."Did something happen yesterday that made you drink so much?" Nyla asked.Valarie's gaze dimmed as she looked down and murmured, "I'd rather not talk about it."Nyla didn't press further and nodded. "If you don't want to talk about it, that's fine. Just finish your oatmeal. I'll take you to work after you shower."Valarie thought for a moment and declined, "No need. My company is in the opposite direction from

"Alright. I understand," Pete answered.After hanging up, Nyla sat on the sofa, contemplating who could be behind the situation. Whoever knew about the Harris Pharmaceuticals incident and could track down Steven to use him against her must hold significant power.When Valarie emerged from the bathroom, she noticed Nyla staring off into space on the sofa. She walked over and waved her hand in front of Nyla's face. "What's got you so lost in thought?"Nyla snapped out of her reverie, shook her head, and stood up. "Nothing much. Let's go."…On the other side, Nathaniel was fuming when he learned that Steven's tracking had been discovered."What's he doing? He was caught right away—what a useless fool!" he scolded.His secretary kept their head down, waiting for Nathaniel to calm down before cautiously suggesting, "Mr. Preston, it might be best to stop Steven from tracking Nyla any further. Otherwise, it could lead back to us."Nathaniel's expression remained grim.After a long p

Nyla's eyes were cold. "I didn't do it and won't admit to it."Spencer sighed. "Ms. Jayston, it's not about whether you admit it or not right now."The evidence was clear. If Prospectus Technology decided to sue, it would almost certainly go through.Nyla remained silent for a few seconds before quietly saying, "Give me three days."Spencer replied, "I need to consult the board on this. The development of this asthma medication has cost the company hundreds of millions, and the board is very concerned. I can't make this decision on my own."Nyla nodded. "Alright, I understand. Thank you, Mr. Hogg."After Spencer and the others left, Melody quickly moved to Nyla's side. "Nyla, I believe you didn't do this. Think carefully—was there anyone who might have accessed your computer last week?"Nyla lowered her gaze. The email had been scheduled for 1:30 p.m., meaning either someone controlled her computer remotely or used it during her lunch break to set up the email.Since she was a
