When Damon arrived at Nylaâs place, it was already an hour later.
âWhatâs going on?â he asked,
Nyla looked up at him with reddened eyes. âUncle Damon, can you help me find a place to stay? If I look for one myself, Clark might continue to harass me.â
Upon seeing the hint of vulnerability in her eyes, Damonâs gaze hardened. âDid Clark come by earlier?â
Nyla nodded. âYes. I donât know where he got the keys, but he just walked in.â
âAlright. Iâll handle the rental. Do you need help with the divorce?â Damon asked.
Nyla looked down. âThe divorce should be happening soon.
âGot it,â Damon replied.
Noticing Damonâs gaze resting on her, Nyla nervously clenched her hands and mustered the courage to look up at him. âIf thatâs all, and since itâs getting late, I see you out.â
Damon stood up. âNo need. Get some rest.â
After leaving the neighborhood, Damon called Spencer âClark broke into Nylaâs place tonight. Did the two people I asked you to arrange not notice anything?â
The thought of Clark being alone with Nyla made Damon frown. With Clark expelled from the Sumner Group, who knew what he might do next?
âMr. Sumner, Iâll find out what happened right away,â Spencer answered.
âWhatever the reason, replace them with new ones. Also, find a place to rent under your name,â Damon instructed.
âUnderstood. Iâll handle it immediately,â Spencer replied
After hanging up, Damon put his phone down and drummed his fingers absently on the steering wheel. The dim light in the car made his stern face appear halfâhidden, giving off an intimidating aura.
The n next morning, Nyla received a call from the authentication center. After reviewing the report, she immediately sent a copy to Clark.
It wasnât long before Clark called her, sounding somewhat resigned. âNyla, itâs all in the past. Why bring it up again?â
Nyla snorted. âIn the past? You wronged me. Donât you think you owe me an apology?â
There was silence on the other end of the line.
After a few seconds, Clark spoke quietly. âI already apologized last night. You used to never be so aggressive. I barely recognize you now.â
âItâs because I was too easygoing that you felt you could hurt me repeatedly. But I donât want to dwell on

the past. Bring your ID, and weâll get divorced today,â Nyla said.
Clarkâs voice turned cold. âNyla, Iâm not divorcing you. Besides, you said last night youâd think about what I proposed. Why the sudden change? Did Damon put you up to this?â
âLast night was just a temporary measure to get you to leave. Iâll send you a document shortly. Meet me at the courthouse at 10:00 a.m. If you donât show up, Iâll take the document to the police,â Nyla stated.
With that, she hung up and sent Clark the file she had prepared the night before.
Shortly after, he called again, but she ignored it and blocked his number before heading to the courthouse with her ID.
She was certain Clark would come.
Clark stared at the photos Nyla had sent, his eyes red.
Could the incident with Harris Pharmaceuticals six years ago really be connected to Cyrus?
If these documents were authentic and Nyla turned them over to the police, Cyrus would surely end up in prison.
After a momentâs reflection, Clark forwarded the photos to Cyrus.
It wasnât long before Cyrus called him.
