Gabriel offered a slight smile. “Mr. Sumner, haven’t you heard the saying that an older brother is like a fath Nyla is quite innocent, so as her older brother, it’s natural for me to look after her.”

Gabriel and Damon locked eyes, and the atmosphere between them grew icy. They each understood the othe unspoken message.

Damon didn’t believe that a stepbrother would treat his stepsister as well as a real sibling. Furthermore, his investigation had shown that their relationship was poor.

Upon recalling the auction where Gabriel had deliberately competed with him for The Lone Tear, Damon’s expression darkened.

“In that case, I should consider you a brother as well,” Damon suggested.

Gabriel sneered. “I’ve never seen anyone as shameless as you.”

Nyla frowned at Damon. “Mr. Sumner, what exactly do you want to say? If you’re finished, you can leave.”

After a moment of silence, Damon realized it wasn’t the best time to continue the discussion. He said quietly, We’ll talk about this another time.”

With that, the door slammed shut.

Gabriel and Damon exchanged glances at the closed door, both brimming with animosity.

Gabriel’s smile deepened, clearly pleased that Nyla had shut the door on Damon. “Mr. Sumner, still standing here after being shown the door?”

“Mr. Hackett, don’t you think you’re overstepping your bounds?” Damon’s eyes were radiating a chilling hostility.

Gabriel’s smile widened. “Since you seem to enjoy lingering, I won’t keep you company. Goodbye.”

With that, Gabriel walked toward the elevator.

After Gabriel left, Damon also turned to leave.

“Hello, is this Ms. Nyla Jayston? The owner of this phone is drunk at our bar. The speed dial is your number. Can you come pick her up?”

When Nyla arrived at the bar, it was already 2:00 a.m. She navigated through the noisy main area and entered a private room to find Valarie passed out on the sofa.

Although Valarie often frequented bars, she rarely got this drunk. There must be a reason behind it.

The Weirs lived over 20 kilometers away, and her parents were likely already asleep. Taking Valarie home would

surely wake them.

After a moment’s consideration, Nyla decided to take Valarie to her place first and return her home once she sobered up the next day.
