Cindy immediately intervened when she learned that Nyla wanted a divorce from Clark.

"Your dad is still in the police station. If you divorce her now, it will only make it harder for her to relent later. As long as she's still your wife, we can at least mitigate the sentence with a letter of forgiveness if your dad is convicted. If you divorce her now, things will only get worse," she said.

Clark's face was grim. "She has evidence of my involvement in the kidnapping. If I don't go along with her demands, she'll turn that evidence over to the police."

Cindy frowned, anger flashing in her eyes. "That scheming woman! She really came prepared! But the more she acts like this, the more you can't divorce her right now. Otherwise, who knows what she'll do to the Sumners."

"Mom, do you still naively believe that if I delay the divorce, she'll let the Sumners off the hook?" Clark asked.

Nyla was determined to sever ties with the Sumners by sending Cyrus to jail.

After this incident, neither Richard nor Marie would ever accept her again. If Clark stayed with her, he would only disappoint them further and ruin his chances with the Sumner Group.

Cindy was furious, but with Nyla holding evidence, she felt powerless. Moreover, considering Damon's attitude, he was likely to protect Nyla.

The more she thought about it, the more she hated Nyla. She regretted ever letting Nyla into their family. Now, the Sumners were in chaos.
