Nayla fell silent, her face paled as guilt assailed her. “Michael, I can explain...” she tried to speak, but her voice trailed off. Zavier remained calm despite the escalating situation. He looked at Michael with a faint smile on his face, as if he didn't feel the slightest bit guilty. “There's nothing to worry about, Michael. We were just talking.” Michael approached further, now standing between Zavier and Nayla. “Stay away from my wife,” he said in a low, threatening tone, ”I warned you before, Zavier.” Zavier raised an eyebrow, as if challenged. “Sure, Michael. But remember, Nayla has the right to choose what she wants.” Before Michael could react, Nayla pulled his hand away, trying to stop the confrontation from escalating. “Michael, let's go,” she whispered, her eyes pleading with him not to prolong the matter. 

Zavier gave a small applause. “That's amazing, Joen! You were great!” Joen smiled shyly and then approached Zavier, taking his hand gently. Zavier felt his heart melt at the little girl's sweet gesture. Nayla smiled happily at their interaction. Inwardly, Nayla recognized that Joen was rarely so close to new people. “You really have the magic touch, Zavier,” Nayla murmured as she gazed at Zavier and his movements in playing with Joen. Zavier felt proud and happy. “I'm glad I could make her comfortable. Joen is a wonderful girl.” Nayla nodded. “She is indeed extraordinary. Joen has her own way of showing affection and comfort. I'm so grateful that you can accept and appreciate her.” “Why do you want to meet him? He is Michael's son. Not yours, stop your unwarranted suspicions,” Nayla said with a confident smile.&n

Nayla was silent for a moment, contemplating Michael's words. “Michael, I'm not asking you to forget or forgive Zavier. I just want to give Joen a chance to get to know his father. I will always protect Joen and myself, but I cannot ignore Joen's happiness.” “This is not about me or my feelings, Michael. It's about Joen.” “She looked like a normal girl when she was playing with Zavier. She was interacting with her father. I-I was touched by the sight.” Michael sighed, held his sore cheek and sat down next to Nayla. “Nayla, I just want you to be happy and safe. I don't want to see you hurt again.” Michael realized his own shortcomings because while he was playing with Joen, the girl kept glancing the other way and playing with her own world. Nayla looked at Michael with understanding. “I know, Michael. I really appreciate your

Although she still doubted Zavier's intentions, she couldn't ignore the happiness on Joen's face.Joen started playing with the puzzle, trying to assemble the pieces according to the instructions given by the software.

You're very clever,” Zavier praised when Joen successfully completed one more piece of the puzzle.Joen smiled broadly. “This is fun. Thank you, Uncle Zavier.”Joen hugged Zavier so tightly that Zavier almost fell over and they lay on the floor.
