Chapter 671

The next few days passed uneventfully, and Nyla's tension eased a little.Just after she and Mason finished dinner on Friday night, she suddenly received a call from Brandon."Aunt Nyla, can you bring Buddy to the hospital right now?" Brandon asked.Nyla paused for a moment before speaking. "What happened?"She wasn't particularly close with Brandon, so why would he suddenly ask her to come to the hospital? Could something have happened to Damon?The thought made her heart skip a beat, and her face paled."My grandfather passed away late last night. The lawyer came today to read the will, and he said both you and Buddy need to be present," Brandon explained.Nyla was shocked. She hadn't expected Richard to pass away so suddenly.She asked again, "Didn't he seem to be in good health not long ago?"Brandon sighed and spoke softly. "I'm not sure either. The doctor did say he was gradually recovering, but last night, he suddenly…"Anyway, let's not dwell on that now. If you're av

"Third, to my eldest son, Cyrus Sumner, I leave the legacy of my own selfishness and cold-heartedness, hoping he will make good use of these traits and find them beneficial."Fourth, to my youngest son, Damon Sumner, I leave only two words—Suit yourself."This will reflects my true intentions and has been notarized, giving it legal validity."Signed and stamped by Richard Sumner, dated August 19, 2024."As soon as Parker finished, Cyrus jumped up, his face red with rage."I don't accept this will!" he yelled. "There's no way my father would do this! He wouldn't leave me without a single penny!"Parker looked at him calmly. "Mr. Cyrus, this will has already been notarized. If you don't believe it, you're welcome to investigate. There are records on file.""No! This isn't fair! I won't accept this will! It's unfair, and I refuse to acknowledge it!" Cyrus cried.Furious, he turned to Anne, whose expression mirrored his displeasure."Anne, do you really think this will is real? Da

Brandon glared at her coldly. "I dull in comparison to you, Aunt Anne—ignoring Grandpa when he was sick and still managing to pocket 300,000 dollars from his inheritance.""300,000 dollars!" Anne sneered. "What can 300,000 dollars even do?!""If you keep gambling like before, it might not last even a month. But if you're frugal, it may sustain you for a few years," Brandon countered.Anne was so angry she almost spat blood.Her hatred for Richard deepened. All that money and property were left to Nyla's bastard child—wasn't that basically the same as giving it directly to Nyla?The more Anne thought about it, the angrier she became.She turned to Nyla, who had been silent, and questioned, "Nyla, do you really have the nerve to accept that money and those properties?"Nyla hadn't been interested in Richard's inheritance at all, but Anne's accusatory tone made her uncomfortable.Raising her eyebrows, she smirked. "Since your father left it to Buddy, why wouldn't I accept it? Did

Brandon instinctively turned to Damon.Seeing that Damon showed no reaction, he couldn't help but clench his jaw. "Uncle Damon, is what Uncle Cyrus saying true?""It is," Damon confirmed.Brandon's eyes widened as he struggled to process the news. Damon wasn't part of the Sumners!Cyrus laughed coldly. "As long as you admit it, Damon, then you, Nyla, and Mason have no right to Dad's inheritance."Meeting Cyrus' mocking gaze, Damon remained indifferent. "The will is valid. Whether or not I'm part of the Sumners is irrelevant.""You!" Cyrus shifted his approach after his previous tactic failed. "You already have Prospectus Technology. Why fight us over a small inheritance?""I built Prospectus Technology without a single cent from the Sumners. And who wouldn't want more money?" Damon retorted."Well, I won't recognize this will! I'll see you in court!" Cyrus huffed.Damon looked at him nonchalantly. "I'm afraid you won't get the chance to sue me. After all, you're the one who ki

The scene quickly descended into chaos.Nyla immediately pulled Mason behind her, ensuring that Cyrus and Anne wouldn't accidentally harm him.Damon stepped closer to her, speaking in a low voice. "You and Buddy stand behind me.""Okay," Nyla replied.Brandon watched Anne and Cyrus fight with a look of disappointment.They were family, yet they were squabbling over money. To think that Cyrus would kill his own father for it—it was despicable.Parker, who had been stunned into silence, now looked at the scene with disbelief. He frowned, wondering if he knew too much now.He was only there to read a will, yet he had just discovered that Damon wasn't even a Sumner and that Richard had been killed by his own son, Cyrus...The hospital room door opened, and two police officers walked in. They were momentarily taken aback by the chaotic scene but quickly stepped forward to separate Cyrus and Anne.Once Cyrus and Anne had calmed down, one of the officers turned to Cyrus and said, "Mr

After ensuring everything was settled, Parker left.Nyla glanced at Brandon, who had remained silent since the start of the altercation.Guessing he probably had something to discuss with Damon, she decided it was best to give them some privacy and took Mason out of the room.Once the door closed, Brandon finally spoke to Damon. "Uncle Damon, when did you find out that you're not a Sumner?""A short while ago," Damon answered indifferently. "But don't worry. I have no intention of competing with you for control of the Sumner Group."He had never been interested in running the company and had been grooming Brandon to take the reins for years. Now that Brandon was capable, he was ready to step back.Brandon frowned and replied, "You know that's not what I meant. If you wanted the company, I'd hand it over to you in a heartbeat. After all, we both know the company has a better future with you in charge than with me. It's just… hard for me to accept that you're not really my uncle."

Hearing the hesitation in Caroline's voice, Nyla pressed her lips together, understanding her meaning."Don't worry, Caroline, I won't let personal feelings affect my work. Plus, Mr. Sumner is the CEO of Prospectus Technology. He won't have the time to worry about a small project," she replied.Caroline sighed in relief but added, "Nyla, if you feel pressured, I'll talk to the professor.""It's fine. I don't have anything else going on in Saintornia right now, so I might as well finish this project before heading back," Nyla reassured her.Seeing her insist, Caroline decided not to push further and said quietly, "Alright, I'll send you the project details in a bit. Leon and Ruby will come to Saintornia in a couple of days to assist you.""Okay, got it," Nyla answered.After ending the call, she quickly received the project documents from Caroline.When she opened them, her feelings grew complicated—she hadn't expected to have the opportunity to work with Prospectus Technology ag

After Nyla and her group introduced themselves, Ethan smiled and said, "Alright. Mr. Colwell and Ms. Jenner, your accommodations are ready. I'll take you there now.""Thank you," Leon and Ruby replied.Prospectus Technology had arranged for Leon and Ruby to stay in apartments just two blocks from the company. They each had a one-bedroom unit, and there were other out-of-town staff members on the same floor.Seeing that they were satisfied with the arrangements, Ethan said apologetically, "Ms. Kinsey, I should have treated you all to a welcome dinner today, but I have a meeting shortly."If there's nothing else, please come to the office at 9:00 a.m. tomorrow. I'll have someone issue your work IDs and access badges and give you a tour of the company."Nyla nodded. "That's alright, Mr. Jack. We can handle dinner ourselves.""Alright, I'll get going then. I apologize for the inconvenience today," Ethan said as he excused himself.After Ethan left, Nyla planned to let Leon and Ruby

Nathaniel turned his head and widened his eyes when he saw Nyla.It was only recently that he learned she was alive and had returned with Damon's child.However, he didn't care much about this. After all, he had already fallen out with Damon. Even if Nyla came back, they couldn't make amends.He stared at Nyla for a few seconds before looking away, expressionless. "It's none of our business. There's no need to pay attention."Even though Nathaniel's tone was indifferent, Rebecca noticed his grip on the cutlery tighten. Clearly, he wasn't as nonchalant as he pretended to be.Rebecca set down her utensils and asked Nathaniel, "Don't you think it's unfair? Nyla came back unharmed, and she even had Damon's child, but we were the ones caught in his revenge. Especially you—the Preston Group almost went bankrupt."You've worked so hard over the past few years to keep things afloat, facing so much disdain and hardship."Nathaniel sneered. "Rebecca, don't think I don't know what's going

As soon as Nyla entered the villa, she saw Damon and Mason sitting on the living room floor, playing with building blocks.Mason was quick, but Damon was even faster and wasn't going easy on his son. While Mason was only halfway done, Damon had already finished."I win," Damon declared, his expression calm and tone flat.However, if one looked closely, they might catch a hint of amusement in his eyes.Mason pouted but said nothing.Playing games with his father was no fun—he hadn't won a single round tonight. He sniffled, thinking it would be more enjoyable to play with his mother.Noticing that Mason seemed upset, Damon raised an eyebrow and said, "You'll need a lot more practice if you want to beat me.""Fine…" Mason replied reluctantly.Suddenly, a soft laugh came from nearby.Mason and Damon both turned to see Nyla standing by the sofa, smiling warmly at them.She wore a gray trench coat over a cream V-neck sweater and light jeans, paired with classic round-toed loafers.
