N knew there was no way Harrison didn''t realize she would be at a disadvantage once he epted the money. But he took it anyway. She had lost-not to the Sumners, but to Harrison.


    She looked up at Richard, about to speak, when the door to the private room suddenly swung open.


    Damon walked in, his expression cold as he stared at Richard. "Dad, I remember telling you not to bother her."


    Richard''s scowl deepened, and he replied icily, "Didn''t you just say yesterday that we''ve cut ties? What does it matter to you if I bother her or not?" Damon nodded. "You''re right. In that case, Prospectus Technology will have issues with the Sumner Group too."


    "This is outrageous! You''re going to turn against the Sumner Group just for a woman?" Richard bellowed. Damon remained silent, but his gaze spoke volumes.


    From the moment Damon entered the room, N only nced at him once before ignoring himpletely.


    She fixed her eyes on Richard and said, "Mr. Richard, I''ll withdraw thewsuit as you requested. But one day, I will seek justice on my own terms." With that, she turned to leave.


    As she reached the door, Damon blocked her path. "If the Sumners bother you again, just call me, and I''ll handle it."


    N looked at him, exasperated. "Mr. Summer, I thought I made myself clearst time. I don''t want anything to do with you anymore."


    Staring into her cold eyes, Damon replied quietly, "I''m not trying to get involved with you. I just don''t want the Sumners to cause you any more trouble." "Aren''t you part of the Sumners?" N shot back.


    The only difference between Damon and the rest of the Sumners was that he didn''t personally target Harrison and her.


    N''s expression was indifferent.


    "Mr. Summer however the Sumners treat me is my business. If you can''t take my side and won''t help the Sumners against me, then don''t try to y both sides. Let''s just pretend we''re strangers from now on."


    Leaving those cold words behind, she got into her car and drove away.


    N sped to the hospital and quickly headed to Harrison''s room.


    Hearing theughter inside, she took a deep breath and pushed the door open.


    Everyone in the room froze when they saw her.


    "N, what''s wrong..." Sensing something was off, Gabriel stood up and walked toward her.


    N didn''t even look at him. Her eyes were fixed coldly on Harrison, who was lying in bed.


    "Am I only worth 7,000,000 dors in your eyes? You should''ve asked Richard for more, at least double that amount!"


    Harrison frowned. "I warned you not to go up against the Sumners."


    "So, you took Richard''s money behind my back and let him use it to threaten me into dropping thewsuit?" N growled. Wren hurriedly said, "N, your dad''s not in good health. He can''t take any stress. Besides, he used the money to—"


    "I wasn''t talking to you. Can you just keep your mouth shut?" N interrupted.


    Wren''s face fell. Though she didn''t say anything else, her expression was full of grievance and displeasure.


    Harrison looked at N with


    disappointment. "N, you still don''t realize you''re wrong. Instead, you''re taking your anger out on an elder. You''ve let me down."


    N chuckled. "I feel the same. You''ve let me down as a father. I will drop thewsuit, but I won''t see you again. I''ll transfer your medical expenses to your ount each month. I''m leaving Saintornia soon and won''t being back
