Chapter 281

After saying that, Nyla turned and quickly left the room.Harrison wanted to call after her but ultimately couldn't make a sound. He covered his face in anguish, regretting everything he had done and said. He had intended to protect her, but his words had caused so much pain.Wren sighed and said softly, "Harrison, don't blame yourself. This isn't your fault… It's mine. If I hadn't said those things, your relationship with Nyla wouldn't be like this…"Harrison hung his head in silence, unsure of how to respond.Outside the hospital, Nyla wiped the tears from her eyes, questioning her actions for the first time.Why was everyone against her? Should she really give up?But when she thought of Cyrus and Clark's schemes against her, and what Cyrus had done to her family, she couldn't bring herself to let it go. There was no turning back now—she had to stay with Damon and use him to deal with the Sumners.…When Nyla returned to the villa, it was already past 9:00 p.m.Damon was ho

Chapter 282

Just as Nyla was about to get up, Damon's hands gently pressed down on her shoulders."Don't move. Wait here," Damon instructed.Meeting his firm gaze, Nyla bit her lip and instinctively nodded.Damon patted her head with a smile. "Good girl."Nyla was left speechless.Damon worked quickly, and soon the kitchen was filled with the aroma of food.Nyla couldn't help but swallow as she headed to the kitchen. She hadn't eaten dinner and was now quite hungry.Just as she reached the kitchen door, Damon emerged, carrying a plate of sandwiches."Why did you come over?" he asked.Nyla was captivated by the sandwiches in his hand. It was a simple creation—vegetables and eggs topped with melted cheese. The green vegetables and crispy-edged fried eggs looked especially appetizing under the light.Noticing that all her attention was on the sandwiches and she had completely ignored him, Damon couldn't help but smile. "Go get your cutlery."At his words, Nyla quickly went into the kitchen

Chapter 283

Wren sighed. "Don't even mention it. She divorced Clark, and on top of that—"Before she could finish, Gabriel interrupted, "She got divorced?"Wren, oblivious to his agitation, continued with a frown. "Yes, it's complicated. I'll explain everything once I get to Meristate.""Alright…" Gabriel replied.After a few more words, Wren ended the call. Thinking about reuniting with her son in Meristate, she couldn't help but smile.Once she and Harrison were in Meristate, whatever Nyla did here wouldn't affect them. All she needed to do was focus on taking good care of Harrison and Gabriel.As for Nyla, Wren had never considered her part of the family. The courtesy Wren had shown in the past was merely out of respect for Harrison. Now that Nyla no longer respected her, Wren felt no need to curry favor with her.At the Sumner residence…Damon's decision to move Nyla into his villa had left Richard fuming."Outrageous! Does he really want to drag the Sumner name through the mud?!" Ric

Chapter 284

Noticing that Richard hadn't assigned him the task, Parker stood up and said, "Mr. Richard, I need to find more information to see if there's a way to bail out Mr. Cyrus. I'll be going now."Richard nodded. "Go ahead."After Parker left, Richard turned to Cindy. "You should go too. Whether Cyrus can be released depends on whether you can convince Nyla."With that, Richard left the room.As Cindy watched him leave, she couldn't help but grit her teeth, her eyes filled with resentment. It seemed Richard wasn't reliable either, and only she cared about Cyrus' fate.After leaving the Sumner residence, Cindy called Clark and recounted the night's events in detail."Clark, if we want to get your father out, it's up to us now. I'll wait downstairs at Prospectus Technology tomorrow. I refuse to believe I can't find a way to see her!" Cindy declared.There was a brief silence before Clark's cold voice came through. "Alright. I'll also find a way to create some trouble for Uncle Damon's c

Chapter 285

Cindy was furious and raised her hand to slap Nyla. However, before her hand could make contact, Nyla had already grabbed her wrist."Let go!" Cindy shrieked.Nyla smiled. "I suggest you adjust your attitude before asking for favors next time. Otherwise, you'll just end up looking foolish."With that, she released Cindy's wrist.Still struggling, Cindy didn't expect Nyla to suddenly let go. She lost her balance and fell awkwardly to the ground.As the elevator doors opened, Nyla walked in without looking back.Cindy tried to stop her, but the pain from her twisted ankle prevented her from getting up to chase after Nyla."Stop right there! You bitch! I won't let this go!" Cindy screeched.An icy glint crossed Nyla's eyes.Once the elevator doors closed and reached the first floor, she headed straight to the surveillance room. After copying the security footage of the argument with Cindy in front of the elevator, she left.Nyla then went to the top floor to find Damon but was t

Noticing Nyla's cold attitude, Damon frowned and asked softly, "Did something happen?"Nyla looked up, confused. "No, why do you ask?""You seem a bit down today," he replied.Nyla shook her head. "No, I'm fine. Sit down. I'll change your bandages."Damon studied her for a moment but chose not to press further. "Okay."As Nyla finished changing his bandages and tidying up the used items, she said, "You can go now. I need to get back to work."Damon stared at her for several seconds before asking, "Did you get upset because I didn't come home last night?"Nyla was taken aback. "No, why would you think that?""Because you seem distant. I must have done something to upset you," he suggested.Nyla couldn't meet Damon's gentle gaze and looked away. "No, it might just be that I didn't sleep well because of the bed change last night.""Really?" he asked."Yeah. You worked all night at the company and must be very busy. It's not ideal for you to stay in the lab for too long. We shou

"I'll try to have more self-control in the future, but don't blame me if I can't hold back," Damon said.Nyla was speechless. Was there any difference between what he said and saying nothing at all?Seeing Nyla's slightly darkened expression, Damon realized that staying any longer might push her over the edge.He quickly added, "I have a meeting later. Send me a message when you finish work tonight, and we can go home together."After Damon left, Nyla went straight to the lab.Melody smiled slyly when she saw her. "Nyla, guess what I saw when I went to your office just now?""What?" Nyla had a bad premonition—she hoped Melody hadn't just seen Damon kissing her.As expected, Melody's next words confirmed her suspicion.Nyla wished for the floor to swallow her whole. She cleared her throat to hide her embarrassment. "Alright. Let's get back to the experiment, or we'll be working overtime today.""Okay, hahaha… Nyla, I didn't expect to see you shy," Melody teased....The morni

Chapter 288

Erin walked into Damon's office with anticipation and smiled as she looked at him.Damon was handling documents bathed in the sunlight streaming through the window. The radiant glow enhanced his handsome features, making them even more striking."Mr. Damon, I have the contract ready. When would be a good time for us to sign it?" she chirped.Damon set aside the document he was working on and regarded her with an emotionless gaze. "Ms. Hulle, you may have misunderstood. I asked to see you today to inform you that Prospectus Technology has decided to pursue other partnership opportunities. You no longer need to come by," he said.Erin's smile froze as she stared at Damon in disbelief. "What did you say?"After so many discussions and being on the verge of signing the contract, he was now backing out?Despite her anger, Erin tried to maintain her composure and asked, "May I know why?""Your unsolicited harassment of my girlfriend indicates a lack of professional integrity on your

Chapter 289

By the time they finished the experiment and were ready to leave, it was already past 8:00 p.m.Knowing that Melody lived quite far, Nyla offered her a ride home.Melody's eyes lit up. "Really? Thank you so much, Nyla!""It's no problem. It's not safe for a girl to go home alone at night," Nyla said.As they chatted, they put away the lab equipment and ensured everything was in order before heading downstairs together.Nyla sent a message to Damon, letting him know she would be dropping off Melody. He didn't seem to mind.When Melody saw Damon, she was a bit flustered.Sitting in the back seat and seeing Damon in the driver's seat, she was even more surprised. Having the company CEO as a chauffeur was something she could barely have dreamed of."Mr. Sumner, thank you for this," she said.Damon responded with a brief acknowledgment and turned to Nyla. "Can you set the navigation?""Sure," Nyla agreed.Melody's home was in the opposite direction of Damon's villa, so they dropp

Chapter 290

In the end, it seemed Nyla didn't like Damon that much.However, they had a lifetime ahead of them. Damon had enough patience to make her eventually depend on him just as she once depended on Clark."Yeah, but I still hope that if someone bothers you in the future, you'll think of coming to me for help instead of handling everything on your own," Damon said.His serious demeanor made Nyla's heart soften."Okay," she agreed.…Back in her room, Nyla was about to remove her makeup when her phone rang. It was Valarie."Nyla, your ex-mother-in-law is spreading rumors that you've been violent with her. The upper crust of Saintornia is already talking about it," Valarie informed her.Nyla looked down. "Don't worry about it. She'll get what's coming to her soon enough."Valarie's tone was filled with frustration. "You don't know how horrible the things she's saying are. I'm so angry."Nyla's heart warmed a little. She replied gently, "You haven't fully recovered yet. Don't let someo
