After saying that, Nyla stood up and left.

Once her figure disappeared from view, Spencer dialed a number. “Find out which kindergarten Nyla’s son attends and get a photo for me.”

Although Nyla insisted that the child had nothing to do with Damon, Spencer felt he needed to verify it himself for peace of mind. If the child truly wasn’t related to Damon, he wouldn’t bother her again.

After leaving the restaurant, Nyla calmed down and immediately called Oliver.

“Oliver, I need a favor,” she said.

For the next several days, Nyla focused on spending time with Mason and didn’t concern herself with anything else.

On the last day of her break, while practicing writing with Mason, she received a call from Edgar asking her to attend a dinner the following night.

Nyla frowned. “Professor, you promised me before that you wouldn’t schedule dinner events for me. I’ve made it clear I just want to focus on my research.”

Sensing her cold tone, Edgar quickly reassured, “Nyla, this dinner is with an investor from the lab. She’s a woman and has expressed admiration for your dedication to research, so she wants to meet you. I promise there won’t be any pressure to drink.”

After Edgar’s repeated assurances, Nyla finally relented. “But I know most of the female investors in our lab. Who is this one?”

“She’s a new investor, and since you’ve been away for the past half month, you wouldn’t know her. You’ll replace out when you get there tomorrow,” Edgar said.

Feeling something was off, Nyla was going to press further when Edgar hurriedly added, “I have to go to a meeting now. I’ll send you the time and location shortly, so be sure to arrive on time.”

Not long after hanging up, Nyla received a message from Edgar with the details. Remembering how he had always protected his students during dinners, ensuring they didn’t drink more than necessary, she decided not to question it further.

The next evening, Nyla followed the server into a private room. Upon seeing the person seated inside, she finally understood why she had been invited.

“Nyla, long time no see,” Erin greeted her.

Nyla sat down across from Erin, her expression calm. “Ms. Hulle, you went through all this trouble just to see me?”

Erin raised an eyebrow, a small smile on her lips. “You’re not that important to me. I’m only interested in your lab’s research, which I replace promising. As for you, I’m just checking in.”

Nyla didn’t believe a word of it. The disdain in Erin’s eyes made it clear–there was no way she would invest in the lab Nyla worked for.

“So, what’s your real reason for inviting me here today?” Nyla asked.

“You must know that I’m Damon’s fiancee now. I don’t want you anywhere near him. Given the Hulles‘ influence, it would be easy to bring down a small lab like yours.

“If you don’t want the others to suffer because of you, I suggest you leave quietly before things get ugly,” Erin threatened.
