Chasing the Unexpected (Nyla)

Chapter 143

After work, Nyla took a cab to the Sumner residence. As soon as she was led into the living room by a maid, Marie’s cold voice echoed. “On your knees!”

Nyla stopped in her tracks, her expression calm as she looked at Marie. “Grandma, I don’t know what I did wrong to deserve this.”

Cindy, sitting next to Marie, sneered with a sharp tone. “How dare you ask what you did wrong?! Why did you force Ms. Rainford to kneel and apologize to you in front of everyone last night? Do you even realize your status compared to hers?

“This morning, Gen Pharma and the Rainford Group terminated their contracts with the Sumner Group, causing billions in losses. The other shareholders are furious with Clark and are calling for a board meeting to remove him as the CEO. You’re nothing but bad luck!”

If it were not for affecting Clark, Cindy would have told Marie about Nyla’s infertility and had Marie chase Nyla out of the Sumner family.

Nyla met Cindy’s hateful gaze with a composed look. “Jacqueline tried to frame me with a necklace last night, then the Rainford Group terminated the contracts today. It shows they don’t respect the Sumners or the Sumner Group.

“Besides, she offered to kneel and apologize if the necklace wasn’t found on me. I don’t think I did anything wrong.”

Marie’s expression turned colder. “If you don’t understand your mistake, then go stand in the old wing until you figure it out.”
