Wren sighed. “Don’t even mention it. She divorced Clark, and on top of that-”
Before she could finish, Gabriel interrupted, “She got divorced?”
Wren, oblivious to his agitation, continued with a frown. “Yes, it’s complicated. I’ll explain everything once I get to Meristate.”
“Alright… Gabriel replied.
After a few more words, Wren ended the call. Thinking about. reuniting with her son in Meristate, she couldn’t help but smile.
Once she and Harrison were in Meristate, whatever Nyla did here wouldn’t affect them. All she needed to do was focus on taking good care of Harrison and Gabriel.
As for Nyla, Wren had never considered her part of the family. The courtesy Wren had shown in the past was merely out of respect for Harrison. Now that Nyla no longer respected her, Wren felt no need to curry favor with her.
At the Sumner residence…
Damon’s decision to move Nyla into his villa had left Richard fuming.
“Outrageous! Does he really want to drag the Sumner name through the mud?!” Richard bellowed.
The lawyer, Parker Frampton, sat nearby in silence, his gaze
lowered.

He had met with Cyrus at the police station earlier and knew that the police had gathered substantial evidence, making it impossible to bail him out anytime soon.
Richard had ordered his people to replace Nyla and planned to confront her tonight. However, discovering she had moved into Damon’s villa meant he couldn’t meet her without Damon knowing, which only added to his frustration.
Cindy, her eyes red from crying, looked at Richard. “Dad, when has Cyrus ever been through this kind of suffering? We need to replace a way to get him out. The longer he stays in there, the worse it is for the Sumners.”
Richard shot her a cold look. “I don’t need you to remind me.”
His face darkened with frustration. The situation wasn’t just affecting the Sumners–it was threatening the Sumner Group’s business relationships as well.
Although the Sumners had managed to contain the scandal, there was no guarantee it wouldn’t spread further. If their business partners found out, they might sever ties with the Sumner Group, leading to significant losses.
“Find a way to get Nyla to meet with us,” Richard ordered.
Parker sighed. “Mr. Summer, my assistant tried to approach. her but was warned off by Mr. Damon’s people. We haven’t been able to see her, and there’s nothing more we can do.”
The living room fell into a heavy silence, the atmosphere thick with tension.

Richard’s expression grew even darker. Damon was clearly determined to oppose the family over a woman. His son had turned out to be a huge disappointment.
Cindy’s eyes flashed with hatred as she gritted her teeth. “That little wretch thinks she can get away with anything just because she’s with Damon?! If anything happens to Cyrus, I swear I’ll make her pay, even if it costs me my life!”
“Rather than wasting time on empty threats, we should focus on how to meet with her,” Richard retorted.
“Meeting her is all? I’ll go myself. I don’t believe I can’t replace a chance to see her if I camp outside Prospectus Technology!” Cindy declared.
Richard, having just clashed with Damon, was eager to avoid further escalating their conflict. Cindy stepping in as the “bad guy” was actually ideal. After all, it was her duty to do something for her husband.
“Then do as you said. Find a way to get her to sign the forgiveness letter when you meet her,” Richard said.
