Chapter 557

Caroline hadn’t asked directly, but she sensed that Bailey still hadn’t moved on from her past relation which was why she was reluctant to meet Gerrard.

“Nyla, I can introduce you to other lawyers. I know several who are just as capable as my sister. You could consider them,” Caroline suggested.

Nyla shook her head. “For custody cases like this, your sister is the most well–

known. She has never lost a case she’s taken, so I really want to give it a shot. I just want to meet her. If she declines, I won’t push her If it weren’t for M Caroline understood that and nodded after a moment of hesitation. “Alright, Il arrange for you to meet Bailey, but whether or not you can convince her is “Thank you, Caroline!” Nyla exclaimed.

“Don’t thank me just yet. The chances of success are low. Besides, I’ve watched Buddy grow up, so I’ll do everything I can to help.” Caroline replied.

Nyla felt a wave of gratitude. “Okay.”

Nyla nodded. “Thanks, but you’re busy right now, I can handle this myself.”

Just as Oliver was about to respond, his phone rang.

After answering, he turned to Nyla with a smile. “Nyla, we’ve found Buddy!”

When Nyla and Oliver arrived, his men had surrounded the villa. A similar number of black–clad men I need off against Oliver’s team, both sides glaring at each other but making no move.

As soon as they saw Oliver and Nyla, the crowd parted to let them through. Upon entering the living room, the atmosphere grew tense as Oliver’s gaze met Damon’s.

Oliver spoke first. “Mr. Sumner, if you don’t return Buddy to Nyla today, this matter won’t end well.”

Damon let out a light laugh, completely unfazed by Oliver’s words. “Mr. Raynor, Buddy is my child with Nyla. What’s it to you? What right do you have to interfere? I’ve never met someone so eager to raise someone else’s child.”

Before Oliver could respond, Nyla interjected coldly, “It absolutely involves
