"Ms. Jayston, I discovered that Steven has had contact with someone from the Preston Group. However, it appears you have no personal grievances with them, so there would be no reason for them to target you," Pete said.Nyla tightened her grip on the phone. "Actually, there is some personal animosity. I understand the situation now, Mr. Monaghan, so there's no need for further investigation."If you have the time, could you check whether Robert Palfrey from Contelligence has had any contact with employees from Prospectus Technology?""Certainly. I'll look into it right away," Pete replied.After ending the call, Nyla transferred some money to Pete. Once he confirmed receipt, Nyla closed the chat. She placed her phone in her bag, paused for a moment, and then called Damon.The call connected quickly.Damon's voice carried a hint of tension. "Nyla... what's wrong?"Nyla pressed her lips together, a flicker of hesitation in her eyes before she composed herself. "Mr. Sumner, I'm not

Nathaniel called his secretary into the office and said coldly, "Contact Steven and have him prepare to attack Nyla."The secretary, Troy Cantrill, noticed the cracked screen of his phone on the floor and replied, "Understood, Mr. Preston. I'll handle it right away."He picked up the phone, left the office, and immediately ordered a new one to be delivered.…When Steven received the call, he was at a prenatal check-up with his girlfriend.Learning that he needed to attack Nyla, he hesitated. After all, Nathaniel had only instructed him to scare Nyla, not to harm her.Noticing Steven's hesitation, Troy said coldly, "Mr. Abney, do you think that money was easy to come by?"When Nathaniel first approached Steven, he was struggling to meet a request for 80,000 dollars from his girlfriend's parents. They had threatened to force her to have an abortion if he couldn't come up with the money.Nathaniel had found and given him 150,000 dollars to track and harass Nyla. Nathaniel had als

Camila asked him several times, but Steven just said he was too tired from work.After dropping Camila off at home, Steven watched her walk away and made up his mind. He was determined to protect her and the baby, even if it meant committing a crime.He called Troy, gritting his teeth. "I'll do what you asked, but I need to wait until my girlfriend gives birth.""No way. That's too late," Troy replied.Steven sneered. "Mr. Cantrill, I can always tell Nyla what you're planning. You're just looking for a scapegoat. Am I not even allowed to decide on the timing?""If you tell Nyla, there's no telling if your child will even have a chance to be born," Troy warned."Mr. Cantrill, if anything happens to my family, I'll post our phone conversation online. You wouldn't want this to blow up, would you? I just need two months," Steven negotiated.Troy was silent for a moment before saying coldly, "I'll consult with Mr. Preston and get back to you."…Upon hearing this, Nathaniel sneered

Hector sneered. "You certainly have the means to cover her compensation, Mr. Sumner."Damon looked at him and said slowly, "I'd cover her compensation—if she's actually responsible for this.""Who else could it be? The email was sent from her computer. That's a fact, isn't it?" Hector asked.If he weren't afraid of future retaliation from Damon, he'd almost accuse him of deliberately shielding Nyla."It was indeed sent from her computer, but there's no evidence of her communication with Contelligence," Damon replied."That email is evidence enough. What more do you need? Mr. Sumner, are you hesitating to pay?" Hector pressed.If the board were to be the fall guy, he would be the first to refuse!"Mr. Warner, today's meeting is to determine the exact compensation amount, not to discuss whether I'm willing to pay," Damon stated.Hector snorted and fell silent.After an hour of discussion, the agreed-upon compensation amount was 200,000,000 dollars.As the meeting ended, Hector

Rebecca felt a slight relief seeing the panic on Nathaniel's face. Turning her head away, she said coldly, "I already told you that what happened that night should be considered as if it never occurred. If you're having second thoughts, we can still be friends.""No!" Nathaniel took her hand and said gently, "I don't want to be just friends. I want to be your boyfriend."As she looked into his deep, affectionate eyes, Rebecca felt no emotional stir but decided to play along with a shy demeanor. "Okay."Moved by her act, Nathaniel instinctively cupped her chin and leaned in to kiss her.Rebecca, startled, quickly pushed him away. "No… There are too many people in the restaurant. Someone might see us."Noticing her pale face, Nathaniel frowned. "Do I look that unpresentable?""It's not that… It's just that my breakup with Damon hasn't been made public yet. If someone who knows us sees us, it might reflect poorly on you," Rebecca explained."I don't care," Nathaniel insisted."Eve

Gabriel smirked. "Don't worry. If you do as I say, your mother will be safe."Melody glared at him, her eyes filled with deep-seated hatred. "Gabriel, you're so untrustworthy! I was blind to have ever fallen for someone like you!"As she thought about how he had coerced her into borrowing 30,000 dollars from Nyla and wondered what other schemes he might have, Melody felt a wave of despair.Was there truly no way to expose his true nature?Gabriel looked down at her, showing no sympathy for the tear stains on her face. Instead, he found her tears annoying.He pinched her chin and said coldly, "Tomorrow morning, go to Prospectus Technology and report her. The 30,000 dollars she transferred to you tonight is your hush money."Melody's eyes widened in shock, and she shook her head. "No! I won't help you frame Nyla!"She finally understood the real purpose behind Gabriel's demand for the 30,000 dollars from Nyla. Trembling, she realized how dangerous this man was—he truly intended to

Seeing Nyla so agitated, Spencer spoke up. "Nyla, do you have anything else to say?"Nyla didn't respond to him. Instead, she looked directly at Melody and asked, "You're sure the 30,000 dollars I gave you was hush money, right?"For a brief moment, Melody's expression faltered, but she quickly nodded. "I'm sure.""Okay." Nyla calmly pulled out her phone. "I recorded our call last night."As soon as she said that, Melody's face turned pale.Gabriel, sitting nearby, tensed up, his expression darkening. His eyes narrowed, and his hands clenched on the table instinctively.He hadn't expected this—Nyla had been cautious enough to record the conversation even in that situation.Nyla placed her phone on the table and played the recording. The voices from the call echoed through the dead-silent conference room. The more it played, the paler Melody became.When the recording ended, Nyla put away her phone and looked coldly at Melody. "If you don't want to admit it, I can show the times

Melody stood frozen for a moment, stunned by Nyla's questions.After a long pause, she finally spoke. "Does it really matter? As long as you know I did it, isn't that enough?""Of course it matters. When the police come, they'll ask for these details too. If your answers don't match Contelligence's, it will be clear someone else is behind this," Nyla replied.If Contelligence had been interested in Prospectus Technology's research data from the start, they wouldn't have made it public. They'd know it would lead to a lawsuit. The fact that they released it meant they never intended to keep it. Their goal was simply to target Prospectus Technology.More importantly, Nyla had checked the security footage after growing suspicious of Melody. Melody had been delivering meals to her from the cafeteria every day, and the surveillance had never cut out. There had been no opportunity for her to drug Nyla's food or drink.Melody bit her lip and took a deep breath. "Then I'll answer those q
