Trading My Ex for His Uncle by Hello Spring

"Ms. Jayston, I discovered that Steven has had contact with someone from the Preston Group. However, it appears you have no personal grievances with them, so there would be no reason for them to target you," Pete said.

Nyla tightened her grip on the phone. "Actually, there is some personal animosity. I understand the situation now, Mr. Monaghan, so there's no need for further investigation.

"If you have the time, could you check whether Robert Palfrey from Contelligence has had any contact with employees from Prospectus Technology?"

"Certainly. I'll look into it right away," Pete replied.

After ending the call, Nyla transferred some money to Pete. Once he confirmed receipt, Nyla closed the chat. She placed her phone in her bag, paused for a moment, and then called Damon. The call connected quickly.

"In the past few days. The specifics, Mr. Sumner, you'll need to ask him directly," Nyla said before ending the call.
