Chapter 1328

For the next few years, Emerald would likely be too consumed with internal struggles to trouble Damon and Nyla.

Nyla lowered her gaze. "Either way, what happens in Meristate no longer concerns us. I just want our family to stay together."

"Mm," Damon murmured in agreement.

Over the next few days, Brandon focused solely on suppressing the online accusations of ingratitude. He worked late into the night, desperately trying to contain the fallout.

Jayden stormed into Brandon's office, noticing that Brandon seemed more concerned with the company's reputation than visiting Michelle.

"She's not just any woman-she's my girlfriend. The woman I love," Brandon replied.

Jayden pressed, "And what about our years of friendship? What does that mean to you?"
