Chapter 1125

"I overheard it earlier. Apparently, Nyla is related by blood to a key member of the Nixons, but I don't know exactly who," Tom revealed.

To be honest, he didn't even know who the main members of the Nixons were. He had only heard of them but had never met anyone from that family.

From what he had gathered, even someone like Drake would need to schedule an appointment far in advance just to meet with them.

Damon's gaze hardened. His first thought was of Nyla's mother. After her divorce from Harrison, she had reportedly left for overseas in a hurry.

Could it be that she had somehow ended up becoming a member of the Nixons and gained a position of influence? If that were the case, it would explain why Drake was after Nyla.

Damon looked up at Tom. "Got it. Is there anything else you know?"

"Drake's pretty guarded around me, so he doesn't let me in on much. But I do have a close relationship with one of his trusted associates.

"One time, we were drinking, and his associate let it slip. Drake's ultimate goal with Nyla is to marry her and use her as a stepping stone to gain entry into the Nixons," Tom replied.

If Nyla was indeed blood-related to a core member of the Nixons, marrying her could be a legitimate way for Drake to secure a position in the family.

As soon as Tom finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room turned ice-cold. He shivered involuntarily and glanced at Damon, whose expression had darkened to the point of startling him.
