As Nyla opened the file, her expression quickly turned grim. She asked, "Are you sure this information is accurate?" Pete nodded confidently and replied, "Of course, Ms. Jayston. I wouldn't charge such a high fee if I weren't certain of the value of my findings." Closing the file, Nyla inquired, "Can you find concrete evidence that Cyrus orchestrated the accident?"

"If something happens and the Sumners find out I was here and didn't help, it won't look good." Nathaniel nodded. "Makes sense." He had met Clark's mother before-she was quite a formidable character.
