Chapter 921
Before Lydia could finish, Damon interrupted, "Lydia, these sandwiches are really good. Grab two more for me
from the kitchen, please." Lydia's attention was successfully diverted. She replied, "Sure, I'll get them right
away."
Once she left, Nyla quickly walked over and sat across from Damon.
"If you're really not feeling well, don't push yourself," Damon said.
Nyla nodded. "I know."
After breakfast, the two headed to work.
Throughout the morning, Nyla tried to minimize her movements, staying seated as much as possible. Thankfully,
it wasn't too exhausting.
Close to lunchtime, she received an unexpected call from Gabriel.
"Nyla, do you have tfor lunch? | have something I'd like to discuss with you," Gabriel invited.
Nyla's tone turned cold. "What is it? Just say it over the phone. There's no need for us to meet."
A brief silence followed on the other end before Gabriel spoke again, his voice slightly somber. "Do you really
dislikethis much?"
"I don't have tto entertain pointless questions. If that's all, I'll hang up now. I'm busy," Nyla replied.

For Gabriel, she could barely muster the energy to treat him like a stranger. She had no interest in further
interaction.
"I wanted to talk about my mom and your father," Gabriel stated.
Hearing this, Nyla's brows furrowed tightly. "They've already divorced. There's nothing left to discuss. Tell Ms.
Hackett this forif verbal warnings don't work, I'll be forced to take legal action." With that, she ended the
call, her mood sour for the rest of the day.
Gabriel set his phone down, his expression darkening.
It was clear to him that Nyla's resistance toward him had grown even stronger than it was five years ago.
It seemed his plans would need to move faster.
Moments later, Jane burst into his office, her face lit up with excitement.
"Gabriel! Grandpa agreed to collaborate with Starlite! I'm going to sign the contract soon!" she exclaimed.
Her enthusiasm was palpable. She was already envisioning herself triumphing over Theo and solidifying
her position as the true successor to the Wilkie Group.
What could a spoiled, incompetent man like Theo do? She would teach him a lesson about overestimating
himself.
Gabriel, however, was clearly
annoyed by her habit of barging in uninvited. He didn't let it show and instead maintained a neutrab expression.
Jane's smile faltered slightly. "Why aren't you saying anything?"
Gabriel forced a smile. "I'm just surprised. Congratulations, Jane. You really managed to convince Grandpa."
"There's credit to you too! Without
your introduction to Mr. Tonra, | wouldn't have had this opportunity. Now do you want as a
reward?" Jane asked.
"We're husband and wife. Helping you is my responsibility. | don't need a reward," Gabriel answered.
Before Jane could respond, her phone buzzed.
Seeing that it was Shane calling, she quickly answered.
After a brief exchange, her face lit up
again as she replied “AMighd, (VAR
Tonra, Mira Ser right now!" The
