Melody glanced at Nyla, hesitated for a moment, but kept her thoughts to herself. When the attack occurred, she had been too slow to react, but Nyla had immediately rushed to Damon’s side, shielding him from the blow. 

Melody had a vague sense that Nyla’s feelings for Damon might be different. However, since they only exchanged greetings at the company and never showed signs of closeness, she wasn’t sure about their relationship. 

Lost in thought, Melody was jolted back to the present by Nyla’s serious tone. “There’s a leak in the filter paper. Didn’t you notice?” 

Melody snapped back to reality and looked down, spotting a hole in the bottom of the filter paper. The solution had leaked through and contaminated the previously filtered liquid, meaning they would need to 

start over. 

“I am sorry, Nyla. I didn’t notice,” Melody apologized. 

“There’s no need to apologize. Just be more careful when doing experiments. If you can’t focus, take a break,” Nyla replied calmly. 

The experiment they were conducting was relatively low–risk, so a moment of distraction wasn’t a big deal. However, Nyla knew that in future organic experiments, any lack of focus could lead to dangerous situations, potentially causing explosions with serious consequences. 

Melody nodded quickly. “I’ll make sure it doesn’t happen again.” 

Nyla didn’t say anything more and continued with her work. 

Soon, the workday came to an end. As Nyla was gathering her things to leave, she received a call from Valarie, inviting her to dinner. 

They met at the restaurant, and Valarie frowned when she saw Nyla. “Has something happened recently? You look so worn out.” 

Nyla didn’t want to worry Valarie, so she shook her head. “No. I’ve just been a bit tired from work.” 

“Well, a big dinner tonight will be a nice treat,” Valarie said, trying to lift her spirits. 

Seeing Valarie’s enthusiasm, Nyla smiled. “Okay.” 

After they were seated and had ordered their food, Valarie asked, “By the way, has Tom or Jacqueline caused you any trouble lately?” 

“No, but Gen Pharma and the Rainford Group have teamed up to terminate contracts with the Sumner Group and Prospectus Technology, causing significant losses,” Nyla replied. 

“Gen Pharma and the Rainford Group have probably suffered more. Prospectus Technology and the Sumner Group have started to retaliate, and many partners are terminating contracts with them. Tom and Jacqueline’s situation must be quite tough now,” Valarie added. 

Valarie’s family owned a moderately–sized company, so she kept up with business news.

Nyla’s expression remained neutral. “Even if it’s tough, it’s their fault.” 

Valarie snorted. “They got what they deserved. But I bet Jacqueline will come looking for you soon. Don’t 

go soft on her.” 

If Valarie had been at the party, she would have torn Jacqueline apart. 

“Don’t worry. I won’t,” Nyla replied. 

Jacqueline had set her up at the party, and now Gen Pharma and the Rainford Group were using contract terminations to pressure the Sumners into coercing her to apologize. 

Nyla knew that if she forgave Jacqueline, she’d be a fool. 

After dinner, Valarie dragged Nyla out for some shopping. 

Noticing that Valarie was more focused on picking out clothes for her than for herself, Nyla couldn’t help but smile-“Valarie, are you planning to buy me clothes? 

Valarie picked up a red strapless gown and nodded. “Yes. Don’t you remember? Your birthday is coming
