Damon had prepared a pure white, strapless long dress for Nyla, tailored at the waist and featuring a layered skirt. The bottom layer was made of white silk, while the top layer was sheer, adorned with sequins that shimmered under the lights.The dress was simply elegant, and Nyla instantly fell in love with it.The shoes were crystal heels with a crystal flower embellishing the toes—glistening and stunning.After changing into the dress and shoes, Nyla pushed open the door and stepped out of the car.A cold breeze blew by, causing her to shiver involuntarily. The next moment, a warm coat was draped over her shoulders."Let's go," Damon said, taking her hand and leading her inside.He walked half a step ahead of her, and she couldn't help but admire his tall, handsome figure. Her eyes sparkled with joy, and warmth spread through her heart.As they entered Genge residence's hall, the space was brightly lit and bustling with people.Valarie spotted Nyla and hurried over after exc

After Valarie left, Charlotte finally got to the point. "Aunt Nyla, does your father have a unit in Sunshine Paradise?""Yeah, why do you suddenly ask?" Nyla replied.Sunshine Paradise was where her family's old house was. Harrison had moved there after getting out of the hospital."That area is about to be redeveloped. It won't be long before someone comes to discuss compensation with your father," Charlotte explained."How do you know about this? And why are you telling me?" Nyla's gaze was cold as she looked at Charlotte.Charlotte sighed. "My company is planning to collaborate with the Wilkie Group on that land, but the residents aren't keen on moving."Seeing that Nyla remained silent, she paused before continuing. "I came here to ask if you could discuss it with Mr. Jayston. If you agree to be the first to relocate, I can help you apply for an extra unit.""Ms. Sumner, I might not be able to help you with that. My dad might not want to move," Nyla replied.All these years

The raw dislike in Valarie's eyes stabbed at Tom's heart like a sharp knife, and the pain radiated through him, nearly overwhelming him.Tom began, "Valarie, I didn't understand my own feelings five years ago and did a lot of hurtful things to you. For the past five years abroad, I've thought about you every day. Valarie, I actually—"Valarie cut him off, "Tom, you're not about to say some nonsense about loving me, are you?"Tom froze, guilt and affection flooding his expression as he looked at her."Valarie, can't you give me another chance?" he asked. "I promise I'll cherish you and won't make you sad again.""Tom, you're overestimating yourself. I won't feel sad for you anymore. Your so-called love is just self-indulgence." Valarie's eyes showed no sign of softening."If you really loved me, would you have been in bed with another woman? Would you come to me now and ask for another chance while I'm seeing someone else?" she demanded. "If I were to get back together with you, h

"Okay," Damon said as he gently tucked a stray hair behind Nyla's ear and leaned closer to her.Suddenly, Valarie's voice interrupted them. "Mr. Sumner, PDAs are prohibited!"Damon was momentarily speechless. He pulled back from Nyla and turned to Valarie."Ms. Weir, I'll remember this," he said.Valarie replied confidently, "When you marry Nyla, I'll definitely be one of the bridesmaids. By the way, what was it you said you'd remember?"Damon took a deep breath."I remembered that I ought to invite you over for dinner sometime," he replied.Valarie raised an eyebrow. "Oh? I'm free any day. Feel free to contact me.""Sure…" Damon muttered, his expression turning into a semi-scowl.It seemed he would need to have a talk with Brandon soon about keeping his girlfriend in check.Seeing Damon flustered was rare, and Nyla couldn't help but chuckle.Damon glanced at her, his eyes silently reproachful.Nyla forced herself to stop laughing."You should go talk business," she said.

Rebecca watched Jane's proud figure walking away and clutched her dress tightly, rage burning in her eyes.When Jane returned to Gabriel's side, he was deep in conversation with Shane from Starlite Enterprise.Overhearing them discuss the Golden Waters Resort project, she remained alert. She held her glass and stood seemingly idly by Gabriel, but she absorbed every word they said."Mr. Hackett, I was quite interested in collaborating with the Wilkie Group, but they've been slow to respond. I had to sign a contract with Mr. Calnan from Start Vic," Shane said. "He transferred the funds to Starlite Enterprise's account this afternoon. We can consider collaborating next time."Gabriel nodded. "Of course, Mr. Tonra. The investment this time is substantial. Let's work together on the next promising project."Shane turned to Jane with a smile. "I admire your decisiveness, Ms. Wilkie. We must collaborate when the opportunity arises."Jane forced a smile. "Thank you for the compliment, Mr

"She told me tonight that if my dad was the first to agree to the demolition, he'd get an extra unit," Nyla said.Damon signaled left, stopping the car at the intersection to look at her. "Does your dad not want to move?""Yeah, and I don't really want to either," she replied."Then don't," Damon said.Nyla raised an eyebrow. "You're not the project manager. Just because you say we won't move doesn't mean we won't. Some people support the demolition, while those who disagree now are just trying to drive up the price."She didn't believe all the residents wanted to stay in that old, run-down neighborhood."I could buy that project," Damon suggested."If you have that much money, just give it to me," Nyla joked.Damon handed her a black card without hesitation."This is my main card," he said. "All my savings are in it."Nyla was taken aback—her first instinct was to refuse. "No thanks. I have enough money."Damon didn't press her and took the card back. After all, once they w

Nathaniel frowned when he didn't see Rebecca in the living room and called for a maid. "Where's Rebecca?"Seeing his scowl, the maid quickly bowed her head, too fearful to meet his gaze. "Mr. Preston, Mrs. Preston said she couldn't sleep and went for a walk in the garden. She didn't take anyone with her."Nathaniel said nothing more and strode out the door.In the garden's pavilion, Rebecca was on the phone with Sullivan."Sullivan, when are you going to take action? I don't have time to waste!" she hissed.Dim streetlights cast eerie shadows across her face."Ms. Austen, opportunities don't come easily, and I've been injured recently. There's no chance to do anything," Sullivan replied.His casual tone enraged Rebecca, and she growled, "Sullivan, I helped save your dad before, and I can cut off his medical expenses any time I want. I won't support a loser. If Nyla is still safe after a week, I won't pay a single penny to the hospital!"With what Sullivan earned, he couldn't po

Screams echoed from the pavilion, each one blending with the next, until a full half-hour passed before silence finally fell.During this time, not a single servant appeared. The staff had grown used to Rebecca being hit, and nobody dared to intervene. After all, they were just employees, and Rebecca wasn't particularly kind to them. It was best to avoid trouble whenever possible.Rebecca lay motionless on the pavilion floor, barely conscious. Her body was covered in bruises, though her face remained unmarked.Standing over her, Nathaniel looked down with a mix of disgust and hatred. He snarled, "Rebecca, if you hadn't lied to me, I wouldn't have had a falling-out with Damon. The Preston Group wouldn't be in this mess, begging for partnerships. You deserve every bit of this."Rebecca didn't reply. Her eyes were full of despair.How much longer would this endless, miserable life continue? If she had known what returning to the country would cost her, she would never have come back.

If Wilhelm stopped wanting to see Jane, the bond between them would naturally fade over time."No! I don't want food!" Wilhelm cried, hurling Gabriel's phone onto the car seat.He began pounding on the car door, trying to open it. "I want to see Mommy! I want to live with her, not you!"Gabriel, his patience wearing thin, locked the doors with a sharp click and turned to Wilhelm, his expression darkening."Your mother doesn't want you. Even if you find her, she won't take you. I'm the only one you have now," he said."I hate you! I don't want to be with you! I don't want you as my dad!" Wilhelm screamed.Gabriel's restraint, already fraying after days of tantrums, finally snapped. He stared at his son and said coldly, "It doesn't matter whether you want me or not. No one wants you now except me."Jane didn't want Wilhelm. The Wilkies wouldn't want him either."That's not true!" Wilhelm sobbed uncontrollably. "Mommy wants me. Mommy's just mad. If I'm good, she'll take me back! S

Lydia nodded. "Okay, Ms. Kinsey."Shortly after, Lydia returned with Mason by her side.When Mason saw Gabriel and Wilhelm standing at the door, he frowned and turned to Nyla. "Mommy, why is Wilhelm here?"Nyla patted his head gently. "He's here to apologize to you.""Oh." Mason's response was wary, clearly unconvinced.Gabriel observed Nyla's affectionate interaction with Mason, his eyes flickering with a trace of emotion. He turned to Wilhelm. "What did you promise me before we came?"Wilhelm's reluctance was evident. He had agreed to apologize, but only under the threat of losing his chance to see his mother."Mason, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have pushed you yesterday. I hope you can forgive me," Wilhelm said, his voice subdued.Mason didn't respond immediately. Instead, he looked up at Nyla, silently seeking her guidance."Buddy, this is your decision to make," Nyla said softly. "I'll respect whatever you decide."Mason lowered his head, thinking for a moment.Finally, he s

Brandon sighed and placed the items on the desk. "Aunt Nyla, this crisis is unlike anything Prospectus Technology has faced before. If things go wrong, the company can go bankrupt."Uncle Damon prepared these after finding out Buddy is his son, but he hadn't found the right time to give them to you."Keep them for now. If Prospectus Technology collapses, he'll need this to start over."After a moment's silence, Nyla nodded. "Alright, I'll hold onto them. Is this the only reason you came?""Yes, I need to get back to work," Brandon replied."I'll see you out," Nyla offered.After sending Brandon off, she returned to the study and placed the documents and bank card in the safe upstairs.The next morning…As Nyla was getting dressed, Lydia knocked on the door."Ms. Kinsey, there's a man outside who says he's your brother," Lydia informed her.Brother?Thinking it was likely Gabriel, Nyla's expression turned cold. "I don't know him. Tell him to leave.""Understood," Lydia said

Damon put the file down and sat across from Nyla.Noticing two portions of breakfast on the table, he asked, "You haven't eaten either?""No," Nyla replied as she opened the packages and handed one to him. "I came to eat with you. Spencer told me he brought you breakfast this morning, but you didn't touch it.""I was too busy," Damon said."Being busy isn't an excuse to skip meals. I saw your assistants running around like crazy, and I heard they barely got any sleep last night. Is the issue with the company that serious?" Nyla asked."It's significant," Damon admitted. "Our chips might be causing malfunctions in our partner's machines. If that's confirmed, the company will face a massive compensation payout."Nyla frowned, worry flashing in her eyes. "I can't help much with work, but the least I can do is keep things in order at home. By the way, are you coming home tonight?""Probably not," he replied. "There's still a lot to handle.""Alright. Finish your breakfast. I'll hea

Gabriel took the document, skimmed its contents, and his face darkened."What is it?" Tom asked.Gabriel tossed the document onto the table with a cold laugh. "Nothing important. Damon's just trying to catch me off guard."The document contained evidence of Nyce Tech hiring paid posters to smear Prospectus Technology, but Gabriel wasn't worried.Soon enough, those allegations would become the truth.Tom glanced at the papers and grinned. "As long as it's not a big problem. Anyway, I should get going.""Fine, but don't forget your part in this," Gabriel said pointedly.There was a cold glint in Tom's eyes, though his smile remained. "Relax. I won't let you handle Prospectus Technology alone."After Tom left, Gabriel drained his wine in one gulp.As he prepared to head to his study, a maid approached with a concerned expression."Mr. Hackett, Mr. Wilhelm still refuses to eat," the maid informed him.Gabriel had brought Wilhelm straight back to the villa instead of letting him

Damon's expression was icy as he spoke. "I've already sent the head of R&D with a team to investigate. Let's wait for their findings before jumping to conclusions."He added, "The Agihop 6th Gen isn't out yet. If the issue does lie in the Agihop 5th Gen, we should prepare for the worst—compensation payouts and the possibility of... bankruptcy.""What?!" A collective gasp echoed through the room, disbelief etched on everyone's faces."All this over a single batch of faulty machines from the Longbow Company? Isn't that a bit extreme?""Exactly. If the problem is with the Agihop 5th Gen chips, wouldn't paying compensation suffice?""Mr. Sumner, aren't you exaggerating?"The notion that Prospectus Technology could face bankruptcy over a single chip seemed absurd.Meeting their skepticism with a calm demeanor, Damon elaborated, "The news about Longbow Company's machines breaking down after using our chips has already spread.They're attributing the issue to Prospectus Technology's p

Damon's expression remained unmoved. "As I said, we'll investigate thoroughly. Asking us to accept responsibility before the investigation is complete seems unreasonable, doesn't it?"Jeffrey let out a cold laugh. "Fine, Mr. Sumner. But I hope you act quickly. Every day of delay costs us millions. The longer this drags on, the more Prospectus Technology will have to pay."With that, Jeffrey turned and stormed out of the room.Damon, his expression as icy as ever, summoned the head of the R&D department to his office."Take two of your team members to the Longbow Company and investigate the root cause of the machine failures. Determine whether it's our chips," Damon instructed."Mr. Sumner, it can't be our chips! We've invested so much in their development, and they've been on the market for over three years without a single issue. The problem must be elsewhere," the department head replied.Damon's tone sharpened. "I want accurate results based on the investigation—not assumption

Upon noticing Nyla's flushed cheeks, Damon's eyes darkened further."Nyla, need some help with your bath?" he asked, his voice low and enticing.Nyla snapped out of her daze, quickly pushing him away. Her wary gaze made him look like some kind of dangerous predator."No need, I'll do it myself," she replied.If she let him help, they might not come out of the bathroom for two hours.Disappointment flickered in Damon's eyes. "You really don't need help?""Mm-hmm. Now go. If you have nothing to do, play with Buddy downstairs. I'm going to shower," Nyla said, grabbing her pajamas.She darted into the bathroom as though something was chasing her, locking the door behind her with a sharp click.Hearing the lock, Damon chuckled softly, shook his head, and left the bedroom.Downstairs, Mason was playing with toys in the living room. He didn't even glance up at the sound of Damon's footsteps, already able to distinguish between Damon and Nyla's steps. Just as Damon reached the sofa,

Damon raised an eyebrow and said flatly, "It's not about my approval. It's about ensuring the safety of the other children."Gabriel kept his gaze low, anger flickering in his eyes. What else could he say?"Understood. I've learned my lesson today, Mr. Sumner," he gritted through his teeth.The crowd began to disperse.Most parents hurriedly took their children and left, keeping a noticeable distance from Wilhelm and Gabriel as they passed, still wary that Wilhelm might lash out unpredictably.Before long, only Damon, Nyla, and Mason remained at the gate with Gabriel and Wilhelm.Gabriel turned to Damon with a cold expression. "If there's nothing else, Mr. Sumner, I'll take Wilhelm and leave now.""Mr. Hackett, shouldn't your son apologize to Buddy?" Damon asked.Gabriel's expression hardened.Taking a deep breath, he looked down at Wilhelm and said sternly, "Wilhelm, apologize to Buddy."Wilhelm lifted his chin defiantly. "I won't! I didn't do anything wrong!""Wilhelm, beh
