Trading My Ex for His Uncle by Hello Spring

The situation needed to escalate. If Nyla wasn't pushed to her limits, she wouldn't willingly stay by his side.

Gabriel's smile deepened. He was confident that soon he would be with Nyla.

Melody cried bitterly in the taxi on her way home. She hadn't expected that the first man she ever liked would use her to scheme against Nyla, and worse... Nyla was his sister. When she got home, she cried again.

It took several hours for her emotions to settle. Just as she was about to call Nyla to tell her what she had discovered, a news alert popped up on her phone screen.

[Prospectus Technology's experimental data leaked. The culprit is a researcher with a personal vendetta against Prospectus Technology's CEO. Was this done out of revenge or for profit?]

Melody clicked on the link and found a sensationalist article. Not only did it accuse Nyla of leaking the data, but it also exposed Nyla's past relationship with Damon.

The article implied that Nyla had leaked the data out of spite after being dumped by Damon, seeking revenge.

Fuming with anger, Melody saw that most comments were attacking Nyla. She couldn't hold back and started arguing with the commenters.

When she encountered some calmer ones, she tried to explain, but with everyone so quick to judge, no one believed her.
