Nathaniel cut her off. âIf you really donât want to upset me, then go public about your breakup with Damon right now and announce our relationship.â
Rebecca fell silent, frustration and hesitation flashing in her eyes.
She couldnât understand why Nathaniel, who had always been so accommodating, was suddenly pushing her like this.
She had just told Damon that she and Nathaniel were only friends. If she turned around and made their relationship public, how would Damon perceive her?
âNathaniel, do you really have to force me?â she asked.
Nathaniel chuckled. âRebecca, itâs because youâve never given me any security in this relationship that weâre at this point. Either you make it public or never show up in front of me again. If I donât see an announcement by 8:00 a.m. tomorrow, Iâll assume youâve made your choice.â
Before she could respond, he hung up.
Rebecca frantically tried to call him back several times, but he didnât answer. It was clearâhe was forcing her to choose.
She was furious but also realized that, aside from Nathanielâs feelings for her, she had nothing else to rely on right now.
The idea of going public? She couldnât accept it.
Once she announced her relationship with Nathaniel, it would be nearly impossible to reconnect with Damon in the future.
After a sleepless night of contemplation, Rebecca saw no other option and grudgingly posted online.
Her post quickly went viral.
The next morning at breakfast, Valarie brought it up. âYou wouldnât believe the nonsense Rebecca posted! She said that after getting back with Damon, she realized they had missed too many years and were no longer compatible, so they broke up and stayed friends. The nerve! Thatâs not what she said when she stole Damon from you!â

Nyla quietly took a bite of her bread, her expression calm. âI saw it. But honestly, if Damon hadnât given her the opportunity, she wouldnât have been able to interfere in our relationship in the first place.â
Seeing Nylaâs composure, Valarie hesitated before speaking again. âNow that Damon has broken up with her⦠You and Damonâ¦â
âWhether they broke up or not, thereâs no chance for me and Damon. Right now, my priority is studying for grad school. Iâm not interested in relationships at the moment, âNyla replied.
Both Clark and Damon had taught her that relying on romance wasnât enough. She needed to be strong on her own.
âAlright, then,â Valarie relented.
They didnât discuss it any further.
After breakfast, Valarie left for work, while Nyla returned to her room to study.
She had barely studied for an hour when she received a call from Wren.
âNyla, what did you do to Gabriel? Why was he taken by the police?â Wren demanded.
Wrenâs accusatory tone made Nyla frown.
âMaybe you should ask what Gabriel did to me. And consider why the police took him and not me.â With that, Nyla hung up and immediately blocked Wren.
Wren was shaking with anger. She turned to Harrison, seething. âHarrison, your daughter has really grown wings now. Not only has she cut ties with you, but now sheâs had Gabriel sent to the police! Itâs like she wonât stop until this family is torn apart!â
Harrison frowned, his voice serious. âGo to the police station and find out exactly whatâs going on. Weâll discuss it after we know the full story.â
Since the police had taken Gabriel, it must be serious.
Deep down, Harrison still sided with Nylaâafter all, the police had been involved.
Wren quickly nodded. âYouâre right. Iâll go to the station and figure out whatâs happening.â
