Nyla walked to the door and looked through the peephole, surprised to see Gabriel. They had just parted ways not long ago-why was he back?

As Nyla hesitated whether to open the door, Gabriel's deep voice came from outside. "Nyla, after I got home, I suddenly remembered a detail that might be related to the data leak."

Nyla's expression tensed. She opened the door slightly and asked, "What detail?"

Gabriel's gaze hardened as Nyla had only cracked the door open and hadn't invited him in.

"Once, when Melody and I were having dinner, she received a call midway through and then mentioned she had left something in the lab and rushed off. I thought, with work the next day, what could be so urgent that she needed to go back that night?" Gabriel suggested.

A flicker of realization crossed Nyla's face. "If she went back to copy the data and give it to Contelligence, she probably wouldn't have told you she was going to the lab. She'd likely have used some other excuse."

Gabriel looked down, shaking his head. "I'm not sure. I just remembered this and thought I should mention it. Maybe I'm overthinking it or just worried about you, so I didn't consider this possibility sooner."

Nyla found his comments somewhat odd but chose not to dwell on them. "Thanks for your concern. Let's wait for the police investigation."
