Feeling frustrated and aggrieved, Clark watched as Nyla finished her breakfast and left the table. As he stared at her retreating figure, he slammed his fork and knife onto the table, startling Patricia, who was seated nearby."Mr. Sumner, is the breakfast not to your liking?" Patricia asked.Clark rose from his seat and departed without responding, his expression stern.As soon as he got into his car outside the villa, his phone rang. Seeing that it was Cindy calling, he answered with a frown. "Mom, what's the matter so early in the morning?""Clark, did you know Nyla can't have children?!" Cindy demanded.Clark's expression turned icy as he asked, "Did Jordyn tell you?""Never mind who told me. If she really can't have children, you need to divorce her immediately!" Cindy insisted.Her commanding tone made Clark's gaze harden. "Mom, this is between Nyla and me. You don't get to make decisions about it. Also, I don't want anyone else in the Sumners to know about this. If it get

Damon's expression turned icy as he looked at Erin and said, "Ms. Hulle, I hope you understand the implications of what you're saying."Erin smiled, showing no fear. "Of course I do. I wonder if you understand the consequences of your actions. Coveting your nephew's wife—if this gets out, you know what will happen to Ms. Nyla."Damon's eyes narrowed. "Are you threatening me?""Not at all. I intend to help you," Erin replied.Damon asked, "Oh? How exactly do you plan to help me?"Sensing the cold aura around Damon, Erin took two steps closer and said, "Mr. Damon, you should know that even if Ms. Nyla divorces your nephew, you two can never be together. But if you choose to be with me, I'll help keep your secret."Damon let out a cold laugh, each word dripping with ice. "Ms. Hulle, I don't like you and will never be with you."If this gets out, Prospectus Technology will immediately cancel all contracts with Builders Property and never cooperate again. You should consider if Build

Nyla added the solution to the flask and began the reaction before sitting down to write her experiment records.She soon found herself distracted until her phone rang, jolting her back to reality. Seeing that it was Clark, she answered. "What's up?""Nyla, there's a charity gala tonight. Come with me," Clark said.Nyla hesitated for a moment before replying, "Alright. What should I wear?""No need to worry about that. I'll have my secretary prepare something for you," Clark assured her.Since Clark was taking care of it, Nyla didn't dwell on the matter. After confirming the time, she hung up.…Time flew by, and soon it was the end of the workday.Nyla finished filling out her experiment records, cleaned the equipment, put everything back in place, and locked the lab before leaving.…Nyla and Clark arrived at the gala around 7:00 p.m.After getting out of the car, Clark asked her to link arms with him and whispered, "You know most of the people here. I'll be discussing bus

Chapter 134

Erin turned to Jacqueline. "You know her?"If she remembered correctly, Jacqueline had also just returned to the country not long ago.Jacqueline sneered. "Of course I know her. She's good friends with that slut clinging to Tom."The mere thought of Valarie filled Jacqueline with disgust. If she hadn't gone abroad, there was no way Valarie would have gotten close to Tom.Originally, Jacqueline had planned to deal with Valarie today, but since Valarie hadn't shown up, targeting Nyla would suffice.Surprise flashed in Erin's eyes, and she frowned. "What are you planning to do?"Jacqueline pondered for a moment before removing the diamond necklace from her neck. "I heard her family isn't well off, so it's understandable if she resorts to stealing."There was a glint in Erin's eyes, but she didn’t stop Jacqueline.With the Sumners' influence, Nyla wouldn’t face severe consequences. However, if she were branded a thief, it would tarnish the Sumners' reputation. And who would want a

Clark frowned, about to speak, when a loud female voice suddenly echoed in the banquet hall. "Oh no! My necklace is missing!"The voice was so piercing that it immediately drew everyone's attention.Staff members quickly approached her. Upon hearing about the missing necklace, they turned on the lights, illuminating the ballroom as bright as day."Ms. Rainford, don't worry. We'll have our staff search for it right away. If it's here, we should be able to find it quickly."Jacqueline looked anxious and said, "Why not check the security cameras? We should be able to find it quickly. I'm sure I lost it here."The staff member apologized, "I'm sorry, Ms. Rainford. To ensure the privacy and security of the charity gala, there are no cameras in the ballroom."Jacqueline was aware of this already. She was simply trying to convey her urgency. "Please help me find it. The necklace was a birthday gift from Tom, and it means a lot to me.""Of course, Ms. Rainford," the staff member assured

Chapter 136

With Nyla's words, everyone began to grasp the absurdity of the situation. They turned to Erin and Jacqueline with expressions of displeasure.Jacqueline had lost her own necklace. What did that have to do with them? Why should their bags be searched because of her mistake?A necklace worth millions? They could easily afford several of those. There was no need to resort to theft.A cold glint appeared in Erin's eyes as she noticed the unfriendly looks from the crowd. She hadn't anticipated Nyla being so sharp-tongued and difficult to handle. Soon enough, she would make her pay.Erin sighed and said helplessly, "I suggested this to clear everyone's names and help Jacqueline find her necklace. It means a lot to her.""What does that have to do with us? If it was so important, she should've kept it safe at home instead of wearing it out.""Exactly! She lost it herself and now wants to search our bags? I don't agree with that!""Hah! If you care about the necklace so much, I'll buy

"Nyla, am I not giving you enough money? Why would you do something like this?!" Clark demanded.Nyla glanced at him, noting the unfamiliar fury in his eyes. She even suspected that if they weren't in a public setting, he might have grabbed her by the neck and demanded answers.She smiled. "Clark, you've really changed."He used to trust her completely, but now he seemed to think she was capable of stealing from someone else. It appeared that when a person's heart changed, they also became blind to reality.Taking the diamond necklace out of her bag, Nyla held it up for Jacqueline to see. "Ms. Rainford, take a good look. Is this your necklace? If I remember correctly, Ms. Hulle described your necklace's pendant as a swan encrusted with diamonds."Under the light, the necklace Nyla held was a delicate heart-shaped pink diamond, clearly different from Erin's description. This was the necklace Nyla had worn to the event.Jacqueline's eyes widened in disbelief. "Impossible! My neckla

"Or do you think your apology is worth that much, Mr. Genge?"Everyone turned to the door as Damon walked in with Lincoln Gunton, the host of the charity event.Lincoln wore a smile, but Damon's demeanor was icy, exuding an unwelcoming aura.Tom's gaze darkened. If only Clark had been present, he might have been able to resolve the situation amicably. With Damon involved, however, things were likely to become much more complicated.Clark's expression was also grim. Nyla had almost agreed to his suggestion, but Damon's arrival threatened to jeopardize the Sumner Group's cooperation with Gen Pharma."Mr. Damon, this was Jacqueline's mistake. I've assured you that she will apologize and compensate Mrs. Sumner in any way possible," Tom said, hoping to show respect to the Sumners.He knew that if things escalated further, it would reflect poorly on everyone involved.Damon stopped a few steps away, his gaze frosty enough to freeze someone in place. "If Jacqueline had been falsely acc

Jacqueline screamed, clutching her dress in desperation, her eyes filled with terror. "No! Don't come any closer! I'll kneel and apologize!"She had initially thought Damon was merely trying to scare her, but now she saw that his men were actually advancing. He was mad. She would rather be dead than exposed in front of everyone. Kneeling and apologizing seemed preferable.Damon's expression remained icy as he sneered. "Alright, back off."The men in black retreated, leaving Jacqueline on the floor, desperately holding onto her dress. Her hair and clothes were in disarray, and she looked utterly disheveled.Trembling with fear, she crawled over and knelt before Nyla."Ms. Jayston, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have framed you. I was wrong. I'll never do it again. Please forgive me..." she pleaded.Nyla regarded her with indifference, feeling no sympathy. Had she not discovered the necklace in her bag, she might have been the one facing humiliation now."Ms. Rainford, there's no need to

Clark was indignant as Damon scolded him, his hands clenched at his sides. Anger flashed in his eyes."Uncle Damon, Nyla is my wife. How I handle things is none of your business!" he snapped.Damon sneered. "At least Tom knew to protect Jacqueline. You, on the other hand, are both unfaithful and cowardly. I don't know how the Sumners ended up with someone as useless as you."Clark gritted his teeth and said coldly, "At least I'm not coveting someone else's wife.""Do you believe I can have you two divorced by tomorrow?" Damon threatened.He had only held back out of respect for Nyla, waiting until she was ready to make her own decision.Clark's face twisted with resentment. He knew Damon had the power to do just that. Even if Damon took Nyla away from him right now, he wouldn't be able to do anything about it. As the CEO of the Sumner Group without any shares, he was no match for Damon."Uncle Damon, don't push it too far!"He had endured a lot, but Damon's blatant support for
