Darcy's eyes flickered. If he released Nyla while still holding onto Delia, he would retain enough leverage to negotiate with Emerald.Seeing Darcy waver, Ross pressed on. "I'll give you three minutes to think about it. If you don't release her, Mary and Vik will suffer the consequences."At Ross' threat, Darcy remained silent for a moment before finally saying, "Fine, I agree."He turned to his men and ordered coldly, "Go get Nyla.""Yes, sir!" one of them said.…Nyla and Delia were leaning against the wall in the basement, half-asleep, when the door suddenly swung open.Two men dressed in black strode in and headed straight for Nyla.Delia, watching with amusement, made no move to speak up for her. She could barely protect herself, let alone someone else.Besides, as Emerald's most beloved daughter, she was certain Darcy's men wouldn't dare harm her.Nyla's gaze turned icy. "Where are you taking me?"The men in black didn't respond. They simply seized her and led her away

After speaking, Damon took Nyla and left.Once they got into the car, Nyla turned to him. "Where are we going now?""We'll head back to my villa first. Emerald should be too preoccupied to bother you for now. After that, we'll take things one step at a time," Damon answered.Nyla leaned against his shoulder and murmured, "Mm. I never want to be apart from you again.""Me neither," Damon replied.…More than an hour later, the car pulled up in front of Damon's villa.As soon as they got out, they saw Alexander standing by the entrance, as if he had been waiting for a long time.Damon's expression turned icy. "Mr. Kinsey, what are you doing here?"At the same time, he instinctively positioned Nyla behind him.Alexander noted Damon's protective stance, and his gaze darkened slightly. "Relax. I'm not here to take Nyla away. I'm here to help you."Damon let out a cold laugh. "We don't need your help."If it hadn't been for Alexander, Nyla wouldn't have been taken to Meristate in

No matter how furious Warren was, Alexander didn't look back. He was certain that Emerald would reach out to him soon and agree to his terms.At present, she had no one else to rely on. Even the people she could use, she didn't fully trust. Besides, the condition he proposed wasn't that difficult.After Alexander left, Warren fumed for a while before finally calming down. He then dialed Emerald's number and relayed everything Alexander had said, word for word.There was a brief silence on the other end before Emerald's cold voice came through. "Ignore him. If he wants to go against me for Nyla's sake, I want to see how long he can keep it up!"Warren quickly tried to soothe her. "Don't be too upset. Alexander is still young. It's normal for him to act impulsively. Once he thinks things through, he'll come back."Emerald let out a cold laugh. "He knows exactly what he's doing. If we wait for him to come to his senses, who knows how many years that'll take? I won't let him threaten

A cold glint flashed in Darcy's eyes when he saw that Emerald remained completely calm—and could even smile."Emerald, we've known each other for so many years. I don't want things to get ugly. You already have more wealth than you could spend in a lifetime, and with Brian losing a leg, he's no longer a viable successor to the Nixons. 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?""The moment you came to my estate and kidnapped my daughters, a peaceful resolution was off the table," Emerald replied.As soon as she finished speaking, more than a dozen men in black emerged from the shadows, swiftly surrounding them.Darcy's expression changed inst

Mary's face turned pale in an instant. "What did you do to Darcy?!"She leered at Emerald, her eyes burning with rage.Emerald smiled. "Nothing much. Just putting him back where he belongs."Then, with a teasing lilt, she added, "But the way you're so concerned about him makes it easy to suspect there's something more between you two."Mary's expression grew even uglier."Emerald, what nonsense are you talking about?! Darcy and I are completely innocent!" she snapped.Emerald raised an eyebrow. "No need to get so worked up. I was just making an observation. But now that Darcy is out of the picture, you should face reality—there's no one left in the Nixons to support you."You can forget about your little dream of Vik taking over. The only thing you should focus on now is taking care of Edward. Once he's gone, I'll give you and Vik some money so you can leave. But if you try anything foolish again, don't blame me for what happens next."Mary ground her teeth. "Don't get too comf
