Chapter 128
Nyla laughed lightly, her gaze indifferent as she said, âDo you even believe what youâre saying? If you really didnât want to see her, you wouldnât have allowed her to keep the baby or stay in the city. With your power, you could have easily taken care of that.â
âThe baby⦠I had no choice but to let her keep itâ¦â Clark explained.
Nyla lowered her gaze and spoke slowly. âYou donât need to explain yourself to me. I donât want to argue about it anymore. If you want to see her, I can leave and take a taxi home.â
As soon as she finished speaking, the black Cayenne sped off.
Less than half an hour later, they arrived at the villa.
Nyla was about to get out when Clark said coldly, âNyla, remember, youâre the one pushing me toward her.â
âIf you really want to be with her, I wonât blame you. I came back prepared to accept her and the child,â Nyla replied.
Clark didnât look at her and said coldly, âGet out!â
Nyla got out of the car. As soon as she closed the door, Clark sped away. Watching his car disappear, a trace of mockery flashed in her
eyes.
Clark still couldnât let go of Jordyn, yet he wanted Nyla to be the bad guy.
Nyla wondered when he had become so despicable. She could hardly recognize him anymore.
Taking a deep breath, she turned and walked into the villa.

Patricia hurried over and took the flowers from her, asking, âMrs. Sumner, should I put these flowers in your bedroom?â
âNo, just leave them in the living room,â Nyla replied.
She didnât want to be reminded of Clark every time she saw the flowers in her bedroom.
âOkay. By the way, whereâs Mr. Sumner? He asked the kitchen to
prepare your favorite soup for tonightâs dinner,â Patricia inquired.
âJordyn isnât feeling well. He went to be with her. Iâll go change. Prepare dinner,â Nyla said.
Patricia looked at her, surprised that she didnât seem upset. She had assumed Nyla had returned to win Clark back from Jordyn, but now it
seemed otherwise.
Lost in thought, Patricia didnât notice Nyla heading upstairs.
Nyla changed into casual clothes in her room.
When she came back down, she found Cindy sitting on the living room
sofa, looking angry.
Seeing Nyla, Cindy sneered and threw a document at her feet.
âNo wonder you havenât gotten pregnant in three years. It turns out youâre a barren hen!â Cindy snapped.
Nyla frowned as a sense of dread crept over her. She picked up the document and opened it.
As Nylaâs face grew paler, Cindy said coldly, âSince you canât have children, make way for someone who can. I wonât let my son waste his life with a woman who canât bear children!â

Ignoring Cindy, Nyla stared at the medical report in disbelief, her hands trembling.
After marrying, they hadnât used protection. Nyla had assumed this was because she was consciously avoiding fertile periods, but it turned out she was unable to conceive.
She forced herself to stay calm, wondering if the report was a
fabrication orchestrated by Cindy to pressure her into divorcing Clark.
âWhere did you get this report?â she asked.
Cindy sneered. âFrom the hospital where you had your checkup, of course! Do you think Iâd fake something like this?â
Her eyes filled with disdain as she continued. âIf you donât believe me, call the hospital and ask them to send another copy.â
Nyla pressed her lips together and sat down across from Cindy, placing the report on the table. âIf you want me to divorce Clark, you should talk to him, not me.â
Cindy gritted her teeth. âYou think I wonât? Once he knows youâre barren, heâll divorce you immediately!â
âI hope so,â Nyla replied.
Cindy scowled, not expecting Nyla to be so defiant even after learning she couldnât have children.
She growled, âNyla, donât forget that you rely on the Sumners for everything. Without us, youâre nothing!â
