When stiffened. Throwing up her hands, she said, “Fine I won’t say anything more. I finally understand what it’s like to be a stepmother–whatever you do, you’re never right. I get it now!”

Harrison frowned, looking somewhat helpless. “That’s not what I meant ”

“Then what do you mean? I’ve taken care of you diligently these past two years, and I haven’t mistreated your daughter. Now, just because I mention the trouble she has caused, it’s too much?” Wren questioned.

Seeing Wren’s confrontational expression, Harrison felt imitated. He turned his head away and fell silent.

years

After a few minutes Harrison could no longer tolerate it and barked, “Yes, it’s been hard taking care of me. but didn’t I provide you with enough before Harris Pharmaceuticals‘ bankruptcy? No matter how she is you have no right to criticize her!”

When sneered. “Then ask her to take care of you from now on! And stop making me do it!”

With that, she angrily turned and stormed out of the room.

As the door slammed shut, the room fell silent once again.

Hamson sighed and picked up his phone, dialing a number.

After leaving the hospital, Nyla went straight to meet Valarie for a drink.

Valane’s eyes widened when she heard that Nyla had divorced Clark.

“Really?! He agreed to the divorce?!” Valarie asked, her voice tinged with disbelief.

“What’s wrong? Isn’t divorce supposed to be a good thing? You seem a bit down.” Valarie inquired. Nyla took a sip of her drink and briefly recounted the argument she had had with her father.

After listening. Valarie fell silent for a moment before speaking. “I’ve heard about you sending Clark’s father to jail too. From your dad’s perspective, he was just trying to protect you. None of you are at fault. The Sumners are.”

Nyla smiled wryly, her eyes reddening. “I’m not blaming him. I just feel sad. He’s endured so much, and I can’t make things right for him.”

Valarie gently patted her back and said softly, “You’ve done well. If it were me, I don’t think I’d have your courage. But what your dad said is also true.”

Given Nyla’s current situation, seeking justice was extremely difficult. It was unfair to her and the Jaystons, but what could be done about it? The world was full of injustices.

To receive fair treatment, one must strive to become stronger.

Noticing Nyla’s silence, Valarie encouraged her, “Apologize to your dad tomorrow and discuss how to resolve this issue. If you stubbornly pursue Cyrus, the Summers might retaliate against you.

“And for you and your dad right now, getting him treated and focusing on living well is the most Important thing.” Valarie advised.

Nyla closed her eyes, feeling a sense of helplessness. Everyone said she shouldn’t have gone after Cyrus- had she really made a mistake?

But all she wanted was justice…

After a while, she spoke. “Valarie, I understand. I’ll go apologize to my dad tomorrow.”

She didn’t think she had done anything wrong, but she didn’t want to cause her father any more worry, especially with his deteriorating health.

“That’s the right attitude. Cheers! Here’s to shedding the bad relationship and starting anew!” Valarie cheered.

They drank heavily, and by the end of the night, they ended up sleeping in the private room.

When Nyla woke up the next morning, it was already past 8:00 a.m. As soon as she checked her phone, she saw a dozen missed calls from Wren. Alarmed, she quickly called back.
