Chapter 1173 Emerald looked at Nyla and asked, "What are your conditions?" "First, Buddy stays in Saintornia. He can't cto Meristate with me. Second, I need you to provide resources to Damon's company to help him take it international. Third, I want full control over my marriage decisions," Nyla stated firmly.
Emerald narrowed her eyes and pondered briefly before letting out a soft laugh. "Once you join the Nixons, you and Damon will belong to two entirely different worlds.
"As for Buddy-if you leave him here, his life trajectory will end up just like yours. Are you sure you want to leave him behind?" Nyla's second condition wasn't difficult for Emerald to guess. She could see where this was heading, though Nyla clearly underestimated the Nixons. Even with abundant resources, Damon could never compete with them.
As for Nyla's third condition? Once she was in Meristate, who she wanted to marry would hardly be her decision to make.

Whether it was Mason or Damon, Emerald knew either man could be used to control Nyla if necessary.
From the moment Emerald decided to bring her to Meristate, Nyla's autonomy ceased to exist. The only variable would be whether she complied willingly or resisted until it proved futile.
"Just tellwhether you agree to my conditions. Whether my decision is naive or not is irrelevant to you," Nyla retorted.
Emerald frowned, clearly displeased with Nyla's defiance.
How Harrison had managed to raise such a headstrong daughter was beyond her comprehension. Once Nyla arrived in Meristate, Emerald vowed to teach her proper manners.
"Fine. I agree. When will you be ready to leave for Meristate?" she asked.
"I'll need tto say goodbye to Damon and Buddy," Nyla replied.
"Three days. That's all you get. I'm very busy and can't waste my there," Emerald decided curtly.
Nyla's face paled slightly. After a long pause, she finally nodded. "Okay." "I'll have Alexander deliver your ticket. See you at the airport in three days." With that, Emerald grabbed her bag and left without another word. .

Earlier, Nyla had been steadfast in her refusal to go to Meristate. What had changed? "It doesn't matter why I changed my mind. The outcis what's important," Nyla answered. Alexander frowned. Although he had cto convince her to go, her sudden agreement unsettled him.
"You should think carefully. Things are complicated with the Nixons. You might face challenges you can't foresee," he cautioned.
Nyla chuckled, her eyes glinting with faint sarcasm. "Mr. Kinsey, weren't you the one encouragingto goz earlier? Now you're tellingto think twice? So, what is it that you really want-forto go, or to stay?" P.n
"I want you to understand the full picture before making@decision," Alexander replied.
"It doesn't seem like I have much of a choice," Nyla remarked The content istomnovelenglish.net!
Alexander was rendered speechless.
Emerald's domineering nature had e left no room for negotiation. After a moment, he finally said, "Don't worry too much. The Nixons are complicated, yes, but my dad and I will help you. That said, leaving Buddy behind might mean you'll never see him again."
