Noticing Spencer’s silence, Damon frowned. “Is there something else?”
After a moment of hesitation, Spencer spoke up. “Mr. Sumner, I think you should reconsider. The rumors circulating in the company are just hearsay. You could issue a statement prohibiting discussions about your personal life, but there’s no need to clarify your relationship with Ms. Austen.”
If all the employees learned that Nyla had dumped Damon, it might cause an even bigger stir.
Damon was silent for a few seconds before replying in a deep voice, “Fine, we’ll handle it your way.”
Soon after, the CEO’s office issued a statement banning employees from discussing Damon’s personal life. Anyone caught doing so would be terminated.

Both of them turned to see Damon and Spencer standing a short distance away, their presence unexpected.
Damon’s cold gaze lingered on them, his brow furrowed. A heavy, oppressive aura surrounded him.
Spencer, standing behind Damon, couldn’t help but remind him, “Mr. Sumner, it’s lunchtime…”
Damon’s expression darkened, his voice growing even colder. “Do I need you
to remind me?”
Spencer fell silent, regretting his words.
