Seeing the coldness in Clark's eyes, Nyla realized how blind she had been to fall in love with such a man.
Her eyes stung with unshed tears, but she refused to show any vulnerability in front of him. She yanked her hand away, took a deep breath, and headed upstairs. The only thought in her mind was to find a job quickly so she could move out and divorce Clark.
She grabbed a random outfit, tied her hair up with a hairpin, and went back downstairs. She was never one to fuss over her appearance. In the past, she had dressed up for the Sumners' gatherings to make a good impression. Now, she couldn't care less.
Hearing her footsteps, Clark looked up.
Nyla wore a fitted white dress, her waist so slender it seemed it could be encircled with one hand. Her hair was secured with a jade hairpin, revealing her delicate neck. She was breathtakingly beautiful. The grace she exuded was just like when they first met. However, the look in her eyes now was devoid of any warmth.
"Let's go," she said.
They drove to the Sumner residence in silence.
As they arrived and were about to get out of the car, a black Range Rover sped up and stopped abruptly in front of them.
Upon recognizing the car, Clark's expression darkened. It was Damon's car, someone he both feared and disliked.
Damon was known for his reckless and unpredictable behavior. He had refused to take over the Sumner Group when Richard wanted him to run the company, choosing to start his own business instead. Everyone had expected him to fail, but within five years, his company had grown to be worth several times more than the Sumner Group.
Clark couldn't stand Damon, partly out of jealousy. Once, a comment Clark made about Damon reached Damon's ears, and in retaliation, Damon refused to collaborate with the Sumner Group, costing them millions.
Damon rarely attended family dinners, and Clark had hoped to avoid him.
