Ignoring Harrison's reaction, Nyla turned and left without another word.
Behind her, Wren exclaimed, "Harrison, calm down. Take deep breaths. The doctor said you can't get agitated!" Nyla hesitated briefly but didn't look back. She took a deep breath and walked straight out of the hospital room. As she reached the hospital entrance, Gabriel caught up to her.

Who's going to understand me?" She had risked her life to put Cyrus away, only for Harrison to undo it all.
To him, she probably no longer mattered. Before marrying Wren, he had promised to put her first. Now, it seemed Wren meant more to him than she ever had.
"I know you're upset," Gabriel said gently. "But your father did this to protect you. You can't take on the Sumners by yourself. You'd only end up in danger." Nyla's expression remained icy. "Whether there's danger or not is my choice to make. No one else has the right to decide for me." Gabriel sighed. "One day, you'll understand why your dad did what he did." "Save your breath until that day comes," Nyla retorted.
She shoved him aside, opened her dar door, got in, and drove off Gabriel frowned as he watched her car disappear into the distance.
Back in the hospital room, Harrison still hadn't calmed down, his face twisted in anger.
Wren gently patted his back and glanced at Gabriel. "How did it go? Is Nyla still mad?" Gabriel pressed his lips together, speaking in a low voice, "I'll talk to her again when I get home." "No need!" Harrison snapped. "If she doesn't want to acknowledgeas her father anymore, fine. I won't go after her. She can do who won't go wants!" she Seeing Harrison getting worked up again, Wren quickly interjected. Harrison, don't get upset. Nyla is still a child, she "Child? She's nearly 30! When is she going to grow up?!" Harrison huffed.

Gabriel's expression remained indifferent as he glanced at Harrison "It's getting late. I should head back" "Go ahead, and be careful on your way home," Harrison replied After leaving the hospital, Gabriel got into his car and drove home, determined to speak with Nyla again. Meanwhile, Myle hed just arrived at her building when she received a call from Willer Ms. Jayston, regarding Cyrus' case, I heard you're planning to drop the charges? William inquired.
Nyla lowered her gaze, pausing for a few seconds before quietly replying, "Yes, MN Harwell. Thank you for your help. Please proceed with withdrawing the charges. I'll transfer the legal fees shortly."
"Ms. Jayston, why are you dropping the charges? With the evidence om you've provided our chances of Winning are much stronger now. It would be a shto give up at this point," William urged. "No, I've made up my mind. I don't want to pursue this anymore. Please helpwithdraw the charges," Nyla insisted.
She ended the call and immediately transferred the legal fees to William.
Tossing her phone onto the passenger seat, she slumped om forward against the steering wheel, consumed by despair and an overwhelming sense of helpless rage. X
