Cyrus scolded, "Look at what he's done to Clark! If Clark hadn't been so lucky, he might have died by now! He has to come and apologize to Clark, or we'll call the police!"Richard glared at him. "Family matters shouldn't be aired out. If you dare to call the police, don't blame me for disowning you as my son!"Cyrus, breathing heavily with anger, pointed at Clark and said, "Dad, how can you be so biased? Damon is your son, but is Clark not your grandson? And Damon has already disowned you as his father, yet you're still trying to help him?!"Richard retorted, "Don't forget it was Damon who helped you when your company was on the brink of bankruptcy several times!""I'm his brother. That's what he should do!" Cyrus argued, his entitlement evident.The argument between Richard and Cyrus grew more heated, while Clark, lying in bed with a cast, stared blankly out the window, lost in thought.Not far from the window was a university.As the sun set, young couples walked hand in hand
"Clark, help me! It was you who told me to return to the country! You have to help me, or I'll tell Damon about this!" Rebecca threatened.To Clark, her threat seemed laughable. He remained silent, watching as she crawled toward him.The nurses who had initially planned to stop Rebecca hesitated upon seeing her familiarity with Clark. After all, he was a Sumner, and they didn't want to offend him.When Rebecca finally stopped at Clark's feet, looking up at him with pleading eyes, he asked, "Rebecca, how do you want me to help you?"Her face lit up with hope as she hurriedly replied, "Just get me out of the country. I'll never come back. If you help me, I'll never tell Damon you contacted me to return!"Clark smirked.Just as Rebecca thought he might agree, he said, "But he already knows about this."Her smile froze, and despair filled her eyes. "No… It's impossible… How could he know…"Clark turned to the nurses and coldly ordered, "Since she needs the amputation, take her to t
Rebecca gnashed her teeth. She didn't want to die and couldn't afford to. She needed to find a chance to get her revenge.Seeing that she had stopped struggling, Nathaniel slipped the prepared ring onto her finger, then slid his ring on and clasped their hands together.The reporters took a few obligatory shots before quickly leaving. After all, the bride and groom's expressions were so grim that the whole wedding felt eerie.Once the reporters were gone, Nathaniel immediately released Rebecca's hand.They exchanged glances filled with pure loathing as if they wished they could destroy each other."Nathaniel, I must have been cursed in my previous lives to end up with you! You're nothing but a useless waste, destined to be trampled under Damon's foot. Whatever he tells you to do, you follow like a dog!"As soon as she finished, Nathaniel seized her throat.In the next moment, his face loomed large in her vision. Though he was handsome, his expression was dark and menacing, looki
How ironic. Nathaniel once fantasized about the day he could marry Rebecca, but now that she was actually his wife, they both despised each other so much that they wished the other were dead.…Wren had kept the news of Nyla's cliff dive a secret for a month, but Harrison eventually found out.Overwhelmed by shock, he fainted and had to be revived multiple times over the next three days.Even after waking up, he couldn't come to terms with reality. He refused to eat or undergo treatment, clearly resigning himself to dying.Wren tried to persuade him but to no avail. In frustration, she threw the food into the trash and sat by his bed, crying. "Fine, don't eat then. I'll starve with you!"Harrison turned his back to her as if he hadn't heard.After a long silence, he finally spoke in a weary voice. "I have two bank cards in the bedside drawer. There's money in them that should be enough for you to live on—"Wren interrupted him angrily, "Why are you telling me this? If you want
An hour later, Gabriel stormed into the CEO's office at Prospectus Technology.A dozen security guards trailed behind, but none managed to stop him.He marched up to Damon's desk, slammed his fists down hard, and grabbed Damon by the collar, his eyes bloodshot with rage."Damon, you're responsible for Nyla's death, and you act like nothing happened? I won't let you get away with this!" Gabriel growled.Damon shrugged off his hands and stared at him coldly. "Get out."Gabriel sneered. "This matter isn't over! You'd better watch out!"With that, he turned and stormed out.Damon watched Gabriel's retreating figure with a blank expression.Spencer, trembling, stood by the office door. "Mr. Sumner… I'm sorry…""Get out," Damon replied simply.Given the force with which Gabriel had grabbed him, it was no surprise the security guards couldn't stop him.Spencer quickly exited the office, instructing the guards at the door to return to their posts.Since Nyla had fallen into the sea
"Wait!" Wren stopped him. "Harrison's been very unstable since Nyla's fall. He has tried to end his life several times. I told him Nyla's body hasn't been found, so she might still be alive, which gave him a reason to hold on. If he asks you to look for Nyla, just play along. The most important thing is to help him get through this period."Gabriel impatiently shook off her hand and replied coldly, "Got it."As Gabriel entered the hospital room, he noticed that Harrison looked even more emaciated than before. He hesitated, his step faltering.When Harrison saw him, he managed a weak smile. "Gabriel… you're back… You must have heard about Nyla. I need to ask you for a favor…"Gabriel took his hand, his expression serious. "I understand. You don't need to say more. I'll look for Nyla. I won't give up until I find her."Harrison's eyes reddened as he grasped Gabriel's hand. "Thank you!""It's the least I can do," Gabriel replied.He lingered for a moment before standing up to leave
Before Cyrus could finish his sentence, Richard interrupted coldly, "Shut up!"No one knew what might happen with such hypnosis treatments. He had even heard of cases where people turned into fools after undergoing them.Cyrus, pale with fear at Richard's icy gaze, quickly lowered his head, unable to meet his eyes.However, considering that Damon's recent actions had nearly driven Clark's companies to collapse, Cyrus gathered his courage again."Dad, I'm just giving you a suggestion. Damon is my brother, and I wouldn't harm him. I'm only thinking about what's best for him and the Sumners," he said.Richard sneered. "You're only thinking about yourself, not him.""Dad, I'm just suggesting something. If you don't agree, that's fine," Cyrus replied."I won't agree to this, and don't ever bring up such things in front of me again, or I won't spare you!" With that, Richard stood up and left, not even glancing back at Cyrus.Cyrus watched his father's retreating figure, his eyes fill
Damon's offer of ten times the market value was too tempting for the shareholders. They didn't know when Prospectus Technology's stock price would ever see such a surge.With this realization, several shareholders quickly decided to sell their shares.Damon's expression remained unchanged as he instructed Spencer to tally up the shareholders wishing to sell. He immediately had the lawyers draft the transfer agreements.Soon, the shareholders signed the share transfer agreements and received their payments.Seeing the large sums in their bank accounts, many left with gleaming eyes, clearly thrilled.The remaining shareholders, witnessing this, began to waver as well.Damon glanced at the remaining shareholders and said, "If anyone else wants to sell their shares, now is the time. After today, this offer won't be available."Hearing this, a few more shareholders chose to sell their shares.As he watched them leave, delighted by the bank transfer notifications they received, Spenc
