âOkay.â
As Spencer r walked out of the office, he couldnât help but frown, pondering Damonâs attitude toward Nyla.
Earlier today, Damon had immediately called Nyla to question her about the sults, clearly Irritated by her attempt to distance herself from him. Considering Nyla was Damonâs nieceâinâlaw, Spencer hoped he had overthought the matter.
After breakfast, Nyla headed straight to Park Pharmaceuticals.
After giving her statement last night, Genevieve had messaged her, saying she could return to work today. and that the company would handle the situation with Mabel.
To her surprise, a middleâaged man stopped her at the entrance of Park Pharmaceuticals. His face was dark and lined with exhaustion, his eyes bloodshot, and his hair disheveled. He looked at her pleadingly.
âMs. Jayston, please, Iâm begging you to let my daughter go. My wife was in a car accident and is the hospital. I havenât found a job yet, and if my daughter stays in jail, our family will fall apart.â
Nyla instinctively took a few steps back, frowning.

This man resembled Mabel, indicating he was likely her father. However, there was no way Mabel could have described her appearance to him since she was detained. As such, this had to be another of Luciaâs schemes.
âYour wifeâs car accident has nothing to do with me. I havenât done anything to Mabel, yet she tried to ruin my face and my career. I have no obligation to forgive her.â
Nyla tried to leave, but the man, Kenneth OâNeill, blocked her path again.
âMs. Jayston, Iâm desperate. What will it take for you to let Mabel go? Iâll kneel if I have to.â
Kenneth dropped to his knees in front of Nyla.
Nylaâs eyes flashed with disgust. She detested being emotionally blackmailed into forgiving someone who had wronged her. Just because their family was suffering didnât mean Mabel could harm others without facing consequences.
âKneeling wonât change anything. Iâm not giving a letter of forgiveness. The court will decide her punishment, not me.â
Nyla walked past Kenneth and quickly disappeared from sight.
Across the street, Lucia smirked as she recorded the scene on her phone. She thought Nyla would be trashed by netizens once this video hit the Internet. With Nylaâs reputation in tatters, Park Pharmaceuticals would surely drop her.
Kenneth stood up and approached Lucia, his demeanor submissive. âMs. Pollard, I did as you asked⦠About my wifeâs medical billsâ¦â
âDonât worry. I just had 15,000 dollars transferred. It should last until Mabel is out.â

hank you so much, Ms. Pollard. Meeting you has been a blessing for our family.â
Luciaâs eyes flickered with disdain. She sent Kenneth away with a few words and then forwarded the video to a social media influencer, instructing them to embellish the story and make it go viral.
Due to Nylaâs injured hands, she couldnât conduct experiments for a while. She had to stay at her desk, reviewing literature and researching experiment directions.
As soon as she sat down, Sasha approached her. âNyla, howâs your hand?â
âMuch better. The doctor said I shouldnât get them wet for a while, but they should heal in about two weeks.â
Sasha nodded. âThatâs good to hear.
After a moment of hesitation, she locked eyes with Nyla and asked, âBy the way, when the flask exploded yesterday, everyone ran out, but Mr. Sumner took off his jacket and rushed straight to you. Do you think he might have feelings for you?â
