When Oliver received Nyla’s call, he was in the middle of packing up his personal belongings. Despite working at the Raynor Group for five years, there wasn’t much that was solely his.

His voice, as always, was gentle. “Nyla, what’s wrong? Shouldn’t you be in the lab right now?”

Nyla felt a sting in her nose, and her voice grew hoarse. “Oliver, did you get forced out of the Raynor Group because of me?”

Although she tried to keep her emotions in check, Oliver could still hear the slight tremble in her voice, as if she were on the verge of tears.

He remained silent for a couple of seconds before replying softly, “This has nothing to do with you. I’ve been wanting to take a break for a while, and now’s as good a time as any.”

“Liar!” Nyla snapped.

She wasn’t naive. She knew how much effort and ambition he had poured into his work–things he never openly shared.

Taking a deep breath, Nyla spoke softly but firmly. “Oliver, I’m sorry. This is my fault. I’ll replace a way to make it right.”

Sensing something off in her tone, Oliver instinctively frowned. “Nyla, you don’t need to-”

“I need to get back to the lab. Let’s talk later.” With that, Nyla hung up.

She took a deep breath, her eyes now filled with determination.

After Oliver resigned from the Raynor Group, Hugh personally appointed Fred as the interim CEO.

As soon as the meeting ended, Fred couldn’t wait to call Damon.

“Mr. Sumner, I’ve successfully pushed Oliver out of the Raynor Group. He won’t be able to challenge you again,” he reported. “Now, about the amusement park project you mentioned bringing the Raynor Group into–when can we meet to discuss the details?”

Damon raised an eyebrow in surprise. “How did you manage that?”

He hadn’t even begun to make his move yet. With Fred’s limited shares, it shouldn’t have been so easy to

take down Oliver.

Fred smirked as he replied coldly, “I don’t know what’s gotten into Hugh, but he personally came to the company and ordered Oliver to resign on the spot, without any leniency. He even appointed me as interim CEO.”

Damon narrowed his eyes.

Hugh didn’t stand by his own son? He kicked him out of the Raynor Group and let a man with clear ulterior motives take over? What was he playing at?

“I’ll have my secretary contact you about the partnership. I have a meeting to attend,” Damon said and placed his phone on the desk, a thoughtful expression crossing his face.

Damon shot him a sharp look. “What kind of person?”

“You asked me to dig into Nyla’s past when you wanted me to prepare a lawsuit against her, right? Well, guess what I found?” Gerrard asked.

“What is it?” Damon’s impatience was palpable.

Sensing Damon was on the verge of losing his temper, Gerrard quickly dropped the act. “I found

something about her past… She wasn’t always named Nyla Kinsey. She used to go by Nyla Jayston, and… she’s your nephew’s ex–wife.”
