Chapter 222

Nyla forced a bitter smile. She had always tried to maintain the illusion that her marriage was fine in front of Harrison, but now she realized how foolish she had been.

“Dad, this was the path I chose. I can accept the consequences,” she replied.

Before marrying Clark, Harrison had warned her that life with the Sumners might not be easy, especially since the Jaystons were bankrupt.

Nyla had believed that as long as she and Clark loved each other, they could overcome anything. Now, she understood how naive she had been.

Harrison sighed softly, his voice gentle. “Nyla, don’t worry about me. If you feel like you can’t stay with him anymore, I’ll support whatever decision you make.”

Nyla’s nose tingled as tears threatened to fall. She replied, “Dad, I know. But right now, the most important thing is for you to focus on getting better.”

Harrison wanted to mention his plan to discharge himself from the hospital, but seeing Nyla’s red–rimmed eyes, he held back, He decided to wait for a better time to bring it up.

After spending some time in the hospital room, Wren walked Nyla out.

At the hospital entrance, Wren looked at her with concern and said, “Nyla, I know staying with Clark is hard on you, but if you’re thinking about divorce, I just ask that you wait until after your dad’s kidney transplant. I’m begging you…”

The plea in Wren’s gaze made Nyla’s expression darken. She hesitated for a moment before deciding to tell Wren the truth. “Wren, the kidney we found before… Clark gave it to someone else.”

Wren’s eyes widened in disbelief, and she staggered back a step.

“What did you say?” she asked, her voice trembling.

“Wren, will replace another kidney for my dad, but it might take some time,” Nyla assured her.

Wren didn’t espond, her face turning ashen

you replace?

Before she could finish, Wren pushed her away. “Find a way? What way Clark’s people searched for over two years before they found that kidney. How many years will it take you? Your dad can’t wait that long!”

Wren’s eyes were filled with anger and despair. It was as if someone who had been wandering in darkness suddenly saw a ray of light, only for that light to be abruptly snuffed out

Seeing Wren so agitated, Nyla pressed her lips together. “Wren, I know this is hard to accept right now. We can talk about it when you’ve calmed down.

“Nyta, does Clark giving the kidney to someone else have anything to do with you?” Wren demanded.

Her gaze was accusatory. Clark had assured them that the kidney would go to Harrison, so why had he suddenly changed his mind?

Nyla’s hands clenched at her sides. After a moment, she finally uttered, “Yes.”

“I knew it,” Wren said, walking away without looking back.

Nyla didn’t try to stop her. She knew Wren was blaming her. While she could understand Wren’s feelings, she didn’t believe she was at fault. The blame lay with Clark

After watching Wren disappear into the hospital, Nyla turned and left.

Late at night, in the Prospectus Technology CEO’s office…

Spencer handed a document to Damon, his expression hesitant as he asked, “Mr. Sumner, are you sure you want to give these documents to Ms. Jayston?”
