Chasing the Unexpected (Nyla)

Chapter 293

Just a moment ago, Wren had been thrilled about the upcoming reunion with her son. Now, she felt as if she had been struck by a hammer.

“I was actually planning to return last year,” Gabriel explained. ” I just hadn’t found a suitable job until last month when I began talks with a company in Saintornia. I’m signing the contract. tomorrow.”

“Why didn’t you tell me sooner?” Wren asked.

If she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have agreed to take Harrison abroad for treatment. Being unfamiliar with life abroad, both she and Harrison would face many inconveniences compared to staying in the country.

“I wanted to finalize everything before telling you,” Gabriel said.

Wren frowned, still feeling some frustration. She had already promised Nyla, and backing out now seemed unreasonable. Plus, staying in Saintornia might expose them to potential

retaliation from the Sumners.

After weighing her options, going abroad still seemed best.

“Gabriel, there’s something I need to tell you,” Wren said.

She explained Nyla’s conflicts with the Sumners, concluding with a serious tone, “Since you haven’t signed the contract yet, I suggest you don’t come back to avoid being dragged into this mess. Nyla isn’t listening to anyone right now, so who knows what she might do next?”
