Chapter 417

Camila asked him several times, but Steven just said he was too tired from work.

After dropping Camila off at home, Steven watched her walk away and made up his mind. He was determined to protect her and the baby, even if it meant committing a crime.

He called Troy, gritting his teeth. “Till do what you asked, but I need to wait until my girlfriend gives birth.”

“No way. That’s too late,” Troy replied.

Steven sneered. “Mr. Cantrill, I can always tell Nyla what you’re planning. You’re just looking for a scapegoat. Am I not even allowed to decide on the timing?”

“If you tell Nyla, there’s no telling if your child will even have a chance to be born,” Troy warned.

“Mr. Cantrill, if anything happens to my family, I’ll post our phone conversation online. You wouldn’t want this to blow up, would you? I just need two months,” Steven negotiated.

Troy was silent for a moment before saying coldly, “I’ll consult with Mr. Preston and get back to you.

Upon hearing this, Nathaniel sneered. “Two months? No, the maximum I’ll give him is one week!”

“Mr. Preston, if we push too hard, it might backfire,” Troy advised.

“Then make it half a month. I can’t wait any longer. If he continues to haggle, just get rid of him,” Nathaniel instructed.

A nobody like Steven didn’t get to make demands!

“Understood,” Troy replied.

After reporting this, he hesitantly added, “Mr. Preston, Mr. Hogg just came over with the termination contract… Those contracts…”

Nathaniel’s eyes flashed with anger. So, Damon was really serious!

Alright, he’d see who would back down first!

“Bring me the contracts. I’ll sign them now!” Nathaniel snapped.

Spencer left after receiving the signed termination contracts from Nathaniel.

Back at Prospectus Technology, Damon reviewed the contracts and said coldly, “Everything seems fine. Put them away.

“Mr. Sumner, is it really worth ending our cooperation with the Preston Group over this? What if it gets

out…”

Damon looked up, his eyes icy. “Do you think sending someone to follow and harm Nyla is a trivial matter?

Noticing Damon’s displeasure, Spencer quickly lowered his head. “I just thought, since Mr. Preston hasn’t

wen did it become your place to instruct me on how to handle things? Damon questioned.

” don’t dare. Spencer replied

“Then just follow my instructions,” Damon said

Spencer sighed silently and was about to leave when Damon suddenly added, “Gather the board nembers for a meeting in half an hour to discuss how to handle the data leak.”

“Understood.” Spencer answered

Half an hour later..

As soon as Damon entered the meeting room, a board member sarcastically said, “Mr. Sumner, I don’t see why there’s anything left to discuss. We should just follow the company rules. Just because the person at fault is your girlfriend, you’re shielding her. Does that mean if any of our subordinates mess up. we can also protect them?”

Damon remained silent. He walked to the main seat and coldly stared at the board member who had spoken.

“Mr. Warner, if you don’t want to attend this meeting, you can leave now,” Damon said.

Hector Warner stiffened but did not speak or leave.

“This meeting is primarily to discuss the issue of compensation,” Damon began.

Hearing this, Hector couldn’t resist making another sarcastic remark. “Mr. Sumner, Nyla probably can’t afford hundreds of millions, can she?”

“If she can’t afford it, I’ll cover it for her,” Damon answered.
