“Okay.”
As Spencer r walked out of the office, he couldn’t help but frown, pondering Damon’s 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 Damon’s niece–in–law, 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 middle–aged 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.
“Ms. Jayston, please, I’m begging you to let my daughter go. My wife was in a car accident and is the hospital. I haven’t found a job yet, and if my daughter stays in jail, our family will fall apart.”
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 Lucia’s schemes.
“Your wife’s car accident has nothing to do with me. I haven’t done anything to Mabel, yet she tried to ruin my face and my career. I have no obligation to forgive her.”
Nyla tried to leave, but the man, Kenneth O’Neill, blocked her path again.
‘Ms. Jayston, I’m desperate. What will it take for you to let Mabel go? I’ll kneel if I have to.”
Kenneth dropped to his knees in front of Nyla.
Nyla’s eyes flashed with disgust. She detested being emotionally blackmailed into forgiving someone who had wronged her. Just because their family was suffering didn’t mean Mabel could harm others without facing consequences.
“Kneeling won’t change anything. I’m not giving a letter of forgiveness. The court will decide her punishment, not me.”
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 Nyla’s reputation in tatters, Park Pharmaceuticals would surely drop her.
Kenneth stood up and approached Lucia, his demeanor submissive. “Ms. Pollard, I did as you asked… About my wife’s medical bills…”

Lucia’s 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.
After a moment of hesitation, she locked eyes with Nyla and asked, “By 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?”

When will the new chapters come...
Author! Why does it always so mean? Like a new character will appear and at the end of the chapter, they're all antagonist who always intend to hurt Nyla. Is there any character who will protect her with no expectation in return of any thing?...
AUTHOR!!! NOTICE THIS PLEASE!!!! I hope that Nyla's heart can be softened with Damon alone like clear things up and make some intimate time with each other. And of course Damon talking to Rebecca will make Nyla go back to her status again. Just a short calmness and joy for Nyla and Damon....
