After a brief hesitation, Nyla decided to share her suspicions with Damon.
Listening intently, Damon frowned and spoke in a low voice. “I understand. I’ll have Spencer look into it.”
“Okay.” Nyla sighed, hoping that Ruby had nothing to do with the matter.
After dinner, Damon retreated to his study. As soon as he picked up a file, his phone rang.
“Mr. Sumner, we’ve received news from Falcon. The real owner behind Nyce Tech… You know him,” Spencer reported.
Damon’s expression remained unchanged as he asked, “Is it Gabriel?”
“Yes…” Spencer replied.
“I see. Keep a close watch on Starlite. Gabriel’s goal is likely to take over the Wilkie Group,” Damon instructed.
“Understood. Should we inform Mr. Wilkie about this?” Spencer asked.
If Nyce Tech acquired the Wilkie Group, it would pose a significant threat to Prospectus Technology.
“No need for now. Let’s see what his next move is. In the meantime, investigate where Sullivan funneled the embezzled funds,” Damon said.

Later that morning…
As Nyla arrived at the lab, Leon approached her. “Nyla, do you have time tonight? Let’s invite Ruby for dinner as a farewell.”
Nyla pressed her lips together before responding, “I already called her this morning. She turned it down. It seems she doesn’t want to see me. If you want to invite her, go ahead, but I won’t join.”
Leon’s face darkened, “She wouldn’t even come to her own farewell dinner? What’s gotten into her? Is she even the same person anymore?”
Back when they were in Capitarnia, Nyla had helped Ruby a lot, and Ruby had always been grateful.
Now, she seemed unrecognizable. The more Leon thought about it, the more disillusioned he felt.
Nyla felt a similar disappointment.
She urged, “Let’s get ready for the experiment.”
As Nyla walked away, Leon decided he wouldn’t bother with the farewell dinner either. A person so ungrateful wasn’t worth the
