The company group chat fell silent. No one dared to speak up.

However, in the smaller private groups without any supervisors, things had already exploded.

[Did I read that right? Mr. Sumner said he’s pursuing Nyla Kinsey?]

[I can’t believe it either, but that’s exactly what it says in his statement.]

[Wow, I’m so jealous…]

Some of the old–timers at Prospectus Technology couldn’t help but chime in with the gossip.

[Actually, Mr. Sumner went public with her a few years ago, but then she fell into the sea, and everyone thought she had died. No one expected her to reappear five years later.]

[Is this Nyla Kinsey the same person as Nyla Jayston from before? I was shocked when I first saw her. They look practically identical. Could it be that she got plastic surgery to look like Nyla Jayston to seduce Mr. Sumner?]

[Who knows? We’re just here to watch the drama unfold.]

[Alright, enough gossiping. If this gets out, Mr. Sumner will definitely follow through on his threat to fire anyone talking behind the scenes.]

There was a moment of silence in the lab as Tina looked at Nyla with envy. “Nyla, I never expected Mr. Sumner to be pursuing you.”

Brody scoffed. “See? Some people just know how to play their cards right, managing to get Mr. Sumner to

Before he could finish, he noticed Ruby pointing her phone’s camera at him.

“Ruby, what are you doing?!” he snapped.

Ruby smiled. “Go on, keep talking. I’m recording this to send to the group later. Let’s see if you’ll be the first one to get fired for running your mouth.”

Brody’s gaze darkened instantly, glaring at her like a snake ready to strike.

Ruby wasn’t afraid. She had had enough of Brody’s attitude for a while now.

She provoked, “What? You thinking of hitting me? A grown man who just loves to bully others. No wonder you’re in your 30s and still single–probably no woman wants a guy like you.”

“You!” Brody clenched his fists, his whole body tensing as if he were ready to attack at any moment.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Nyla stepped in, pulling Ruby behind her. “Brody, you’ve been stirring up trouble for no reason lately. I’ve told Ruby and Leon to put up with it, but if you keep pushing your luck, I’ll make sure you’re out of this

project.”

Brody glared back. “Are you threatening me?”

“Take it however you want,” Nyla shot back.

Just as the tension reached its peak, Sullivan’s voice came from the doorway. “What’s going on here? Why’s the lab atmosphere so heavy so early in the morning?”

Nyla turned to look at him, her expression cool. “Nothing, Sullivan, Since you’re here, let’s discuss the upcoming work arrangements.”

Noticing her cold attitude, Sullivan didn’t get angry.

He nodded and replied, “Alright.”

As he and Nyla walked to the office, he exchanged a look with Brody, a warning evident in his eyes. If that idiot dared to mess up his plans, he wouldn’t let him off easily.

After discussing the work arrangements, Sullivan left.

Nyla took out her phone, hesitated for a moment, and sent Damon a message asking why he did what he did.

After waiting for a while without receiving a response, she put her phone away and returned to work.

Around noon, Damon suddenly appeared outside the lab.

At that time, Nyla was monitoring a chemical reaction in one of the lab’s instruments.

It wasn’t until Ruby nudged her that she noticed Damon standing outside, his gaze fixed on her, clearly

there to see her.

She handed her notebook to Ruby, instructing, “Take over recording for now. I’ll be back in a bit.”
