"Emerald, we've known each other for so many years. I don't want things to get ugly.

If you step down now, I won't make things difficult for you," Darcy said.

Emerald set down her teacup, her expression steady as she met Darcy's gaze. "I've told you before-my chosen successor is my eldest daughter, Nyla, not Brian. So whether or not Brian is injured has nothing to do with the future of the Nixons."

Darcy's face darkened. "So you're refusing to settle this peacefully?"
