Chapter 413
Melody took the payment slip with a deep breath. âMoth, go back to the ward and take care of Dad. Iâll figure out the money.â
Her mother looked apologetic and uneasy. âMelody, Iâm sorry⦠We donât have the money, and weâre causing you troubleâ¦â
She knew her daughter didnât have that much money either. Apart from borrowing, there seemed to be no other way.
Her mother suggested, âMaybe I can ask your uncle for a loan⦠You-â
Before she could finish, Melody interrupted, âMom, weâve already borrowed a lot from him for the apartment down payment. We havenât even started repaying it yet, and asking for more might upset my aunt. Il find a way, so donât worry.â
âAlrightâ¦â her mother reluctantly agreed.
Melody took the payment slip and went to the end of the hallway to call her classmates and friends.
In the CEOâs office of Prospectus Technology, Damon looked grim as he stared at Spencer. âDidnât I tell you that this matter must not be leaked?â
Spencer felt distressed. He had indeed instructed everyone who knew about the data leak to keep it quiet, but he didnât know how so many sensationalist accounts had obtained it.
âMr. Sumner, Iâll look into it immediately,â Spencer replied.
âIâm giving you one hour. I donât want to see any more news about this issue within the hour!â Damon ordered.
He then stood up and headed for the door.
Spencer hurried after him. âMr. Sumner, where are you going? Iâll arrange for a car.â
âNo need. Just take care of the tasks I assigned,â Damon answered coldly before leaving.
Once Damonâs figure disappeared from view, Spencer let out a sigh of relief and cursed under his breath, wondering who had leaked the information. Whoever it was, he would make sure they paid for it!
This situation seemed deliberately aimed at Nyla. Who hated her so much to go this far?
Spencer shook his head, dismissing the thought. He quickly set about removing the trending topic and investigating which account was the first to leak the news.
When the doorbell rang. Nyla was reading the soâcalled sensational news online. The details of her past with Damon were known only to a few, so the person behind the leak must have been close to her.
No matter how she thought about it, Melody seemed the most likely suspectâ¦
Yet, emotionally, Nyla found it hard to believe that Melody would do such a thing, especially since it

wouldnât benefa her.
Hearing the doorbell, Nyla walked to the door and found Damon standing there. After a moment of hesitation, she opened
âMr. Sumner, what brings you here?â she asked.
âYou saw the trending news, right?â Damon inquired.
His gaze swept over her face, and he felt relieved to see her relatively calm.
Nyla noticed the concern in his eyes and lowered her gaze. âItâs nothing. You came here because of this?â âYes, Iâm worried about you,â Damon replied.
Nyla frowned slightly, her tone cold. âMr. Sumner, weâve broken up. You donât need to worry about me.â âNyla, you may not accept me, but you canât deny me the right to care for you and pursue you,â Damon said
Seeing him still as domineering as ever and disregarding her feelings, Nyla felt increasingly irritated.
âWell, I also have the right to reject you. Youâre bothering me even after Iâve made it clear that I donât want to see you,â she retorted.
