The restaurant's lighting cast a soft glow over Damon's normally cool profile, making his expression appear much gentler as he looked at Nyla.The photo could easily be misinterpreted.It was simply the angle—Damon had been speaking to her and naturally looked her way, which happened to be caught on camera.Nyla immediately called Valarie. "What's the deal with that photo? Who took it?""You're finally up! That photo was taken by a somewhat well-known photographer who posted it on their profile. It blew up, and now everyone online is saying you and Damon are a perfect match."Nyla was speechless.Although the photo only showed their profiles, anyone who knew them could easily recognize them. No wonder Clark was so furious earlier."It's just the angle. I'll contact Clark's uncle to sort this out," Nyla said.If this got any bigger, it would only cause her more trouble. She decided to call Spencer instead of contacting Damon directly.When Spencer heard about the photo, he quic

"I don't need you to tell me what I should or shouldn't do," Damon said coldly, plunging the office into silence.The tension between him and Clark was palpable as they stared each other down, neither willing to back off.Sensing the intensity of the situation, Spencer quickly intervened, "Mr. Clark, Mr. Damon has been dealing with the photo situation since this morning. Maybe you should head back for now."Clark turned to Spencer, his tone icy. "Mr. Hogg, you've been with my uncle for a few years now. I hope you can talk some sense into him, remind him not to—""Clark!" Damon's voice cut through sharply, his eyes filled with a storm of anger. "Say one more word, and you can forget about staying as the Sumner Group's CEO."Clark's hands clenched tightly at his sides, feeling both humiliated and frustrated. He knew Damon had the power to oust him from his position.He glared at Damon, enunciating each word, "I hope you know what you're doing, Uncle Damon."With that, he turned an

When Clark saw Nyla's eyelashes flutter, his eyes flashed with satisfaction.Nyla bit her lip and said coldly, "I need to go to work. Can you leave now?"Upon noticing her distant attitude, Clark's gaze darkened. He didn't want to push her too hard as it would only worsen their relationship."I'll drive you," he offered."No need."With that, Nyla pushed him out and closed the door behind him.…Upon arriving at the office, Nyla noticed her colleagues sneaking glances at her.She remained expressionless, assuming they had all seen the photo online.After placing her things at her desk, she was about to head to the lab when Sasha approached her, whispering, "Nyla, about that photo online...

Does Mr. Sumner really like you?"Immediately, everyone around them perked up their ears.Everyone knew about the incident where Damon protected Nyla during the lab explosion, risking his own safety. Now, with the photo circulating online, they couldn't help but speculate about

Kenneth stood in a hospital corridor, staring at the bill with worry. Hearing Lucia's voice, he replied seriously, "Within the next few days."He was completely out of money. With Mabel in police custody, his only option was to follow Lucia's plan to get the money for medical expenses."I'll be waiting for your good news then," Lucia said, hanging up with a smirk.Once Kenneth kidnapped Nyla, she would ensure both of them perished at the scene, leaving her free of worry.…In the lab.Nyla was preparing to continue her experiment when she received a message from Genevieve, asking her to come to her office.When she arrived, Genevieve greeted her with a smile.

Once Nyla got home, she contacted Spencer, who instructed her to come to the CEO's office the next morning for fingerprint registration and access cards.After hanging up, Nyla felt anxious.

Damon looked up at Spencer, his expression cool and detached. "Got it."Seeing Damon's indifferent reaction, Spencer felt he might be overdoing it by bringing this up. After reminding Damon about the 10:00 a.m. meeting, he turned and left.…At noon, Nyla took her meal card to the cafeteria.As soon as she walked in, she was stunned by the luxurious setup. It looked more like a five-star restaurant than a cafeteria.The food at each station was meticulously prepared and visually appealing. Moreover, the prices were incredibly low, almost the same as a university cafeteria.The cafeteria had three floors, offering a variety of cuisines.Nyla lined up at one of the food stations, collected her meal, and found a seat in a corner.Tasting the soup, she was surprised at how delicious it was, comparable to what she had tasted at five-star restaurants before.She had heard people online say that Prospectus Technology's cafeteria was like a five-star restaurant and thought it was an e

Nyla's steps faltered, and she glared at Clark. "What did you tell my dad?!"Before Clark could respond, Harrison shouted, "You're questioning Clark? How could you betray him with his uncle?!"Nyla's fingers trembled with rage. She couldn't believe Clark had the gall to twist the truth, and even more, she couldn't believe her father had fallen for it."Dad, do you really see me as that kind of person? You didn't even ask me, and you just believed Clark's side of the story, thinking I betrayed him?!" she questioned.Nyla took a deep breath, deciding not to hide Clark's infidelity any longer. "Do you know it was he who—""Nyla, your dad was so upset earlier that he almost fainted. The doctor said he can't take any more stress. Do you really want to push him to the brink?"Clark's loud voice drowned out Nyla's words.She clenched her hands at her sides, her hatred for Clark reaching a peak. "If you know my dad can't take stress, why did you come here and tell him nonsense?!"Clark

Instantly, a red handprint appeared on Clark's face. His gaze toward Nyla was chilling. "How dare you hit me?!"Nyla met his furious eyes and said slowly, "Why wouldn't I? You're the one who cheated, yet you have the audacity to slander me in front of my dad. Don't you deserve to be hit?"As soon as she finished speaking, Clark grabbed her chin and pushed her against the wall, his eyes filled with anger."Nyla, it's your fault for not listening to me. If you had obeyed, I wouldn't have had to go to your father," he claimed.Nyla sneered. "If you dare approach my dad again, I'll expose your affair.""If you're not afraid of aggravating his condition, go ahead," Clark dared herClark's nonchalant tone fueled Nyla's rage, her hands clenched at her sides. "Clark, how did you become so despicable?!"Clark leaned closer. He could see the disgust and anger in Nyla's eyes and tightened his grip on her chin."Nyla, I just want you back by my side and to stay away from my uncle. You're t

People were hiding in both the bedroom and by the door, indicating a premeditated attack.Nyla scrambled to her feet and ran toward the kitchen. Unfortunately, she only managed a few steps before someone grabbed her arm and slammed her against the wall."Who are you? Why are you— Mmph!"Before she could finish, one of her attackers pinned her down and pressed a cloth against her nose. A pungent smell filled her nostrils, and her vision began to blur.Soon, two masked men dragged a large suitcase out of Nyla's apartment.Since it was just past 8:00 p.m. and most people were home from work, there weren't many people around, so the men didn't attract much attention.They quickly reached the back gate of the building, where a nondescript van without a license plate was parked in the shadows.They loaded the suitcase into the trunk and drove off toward the outskirts of the city.…Spencer hurried into the CEO's office at Prospectus Technology with a document in hand."Mr. Sumner,

"Even if you spill the beans, I don't have any money now. And if this gets out, you'll be going to jail too!" Kenneth responded.As the argument grew more intense, Nyla finally recognized the man who had kidnapped her—Mabel's father, Kenneth.She had only met him once. How did he know where she lived? How had he gotten into her home?This wasn't something a regular farm worker could come up with. Someone must have been behind it, and that person was obviously Lucia.Gradually, the argument outside died down, followed by the sound of a car starting.Soon, everything was silent.Nyla held her breath, not daring to make a sound.Suddenly, she felt the suitcase being moved and heard the wheels rolling on the ground. She realized she was being dragged somewhere, and her mind raced as she considered how to escape.Nyla cautiously unzipped the top of the suitcase a little, but the outside was pitch black except for the flashlight held by the person dragging her.Unable to see her sur
