Damon nodded. "Mm. I've already instructed Spencer to investigate Alexander's background. He landed this morning, barely spent any time at his hotel, and went directly to Gabriel's location."Not only that, but he somehow pinpointed exactly where Gabriel was keeping Buddy. I'm worried he might have ulterior motives for involving himself with Buddy."Nyla shared the same unease.Back in Capitarnia, Mason had never mentioned Alexander.Now, this man had suddenly appeared, and something about it didn't sit right. She couldn't shake the feeling that something bigger was at play."I'll keep a close eye on Buddy in the meantime," Nyla reassured him. "I won't let him have any further contact with that man. You focus on your work."Damon nodded. "Alright. Nyla, I know this is hard on you."Nyla shook her head gently. "The most important thing to me now is that the three of us stay together as a family. Everything else is secondary.""Mm." Damon hugged her briefly before heading to his

It was unexpected that Gabriel's plan would fail."Additionally, his secretary has been detained by the police. It looks like they'll both be facing jail time," Spencer reported.Damon's expression remained icy. "Understood. Make sure he doesn't have any chance of getting out.""Yes, Mr. Sumner," Spencer replied.Just as Spencer was about to leave, the door to Damon's office swung open.Pedro walked in, his face clouded with anger. "Mr. Sumner, it's been a while."Damon raised an eyebrow and offered a polite smile. "Mr. Wilkie, it has indeed. What brings you here today?"Pedro let out a cold laugh. "I heard that my useless granddaughter sold 10% of the Wilkie Group's shares to you for a mere 7,000,000 dollars without even knowing their actual value. I'm here about that.""Mr. Wilkie, please take a seat. We can discuss this," Damon said, gesturing toward the chair opposite him.Pedro sat down, his tone stern. "Mr. Sumner, I don’t plan to take advantage of you. My granddaughter

Damon chuckled. "As I said, you can buy them back at market value."Pedro's expression darkened. "Mr. Sumner, don't joke with me. You are well aware that the Wilkie Group doesn't have that kind of money right now. Name another condition—anything the Wilkie Group can do, and I'll agree to it!"For Pedro, saying this pushed his limits. If it weren't to eliminate future risks for Theo, he would never lower himself to negotiate like this with Damon.Damon looked at him, his tone calm but unyielding. "Mr. Wilkie, I'm not joking. I'm a businessman. I make deals to earn money. If there's no profit, why would I spend 7,000,000 dollars to buy the Wilkie Group shares from Ms. Wilkie? For fun?""I've already offered 8,000,000 dollars to buy back the shares. It's only been a few days, and you'd be making an easy 1,000,000 dollars. Isn't that a profit?" Pedro countered."Mr. Wilkie, do you take me for a fool? Even if I don't sell the shares back to you, I could sell them to anyone else for ten

Wren froze in disbelief. "Nyla, are you really this heartless? Even though your father and I divorced, you and Gabriel were siblings for years. Can you really stand to see his life destroyed?"Taking a deep breath, Nyla locked eyes with her. "His life is ruined because he chose the wrong path. That has nothing to do with me. Please leave. Don't come back—I won't see you again."With that, she shut the door and walked back to the living room.Outside, Wren stared at the closed door, her face pale and her expression increasingly desperate.Her phone buzzed in her bag.When she answered, an impatient voice barked through the line. "Wren, where are you? Get to the courthouse now and finalize the divorce!"Before she could respond, the caller hung up.Still holding the phone, Wren stood there, dazed.Why... Why had her life—and Gabriel's—fallen apart so suddenly?…Tom snorted when he heard about Gabriel's arrest. "Idiot!"If Gabriel hadn't foolishly tried to abduct Nyla and Maso

Tom's face paled as he instinctively stepped back two paces. "M-Mr. Mummery, why are you..."Drake chuckled. "You mean, why am I here?"Tom didn't respond, but the slight tremble in his body betrayed his fear."Why I'm here isn't important," Drake said, strolling from the window to the sofa and taking a seat.His demeanor remained calm, yet his presence exuded a chilling menace. "What matters is this—what exactly did you and Damon discuss earlier?"He gestured to the seat across from him. "Relax, Tom. Sit."The casual tone did little to calm Tom, who swallowed nervously before seating himself opposite Drake."It was nothing much," he stammered. "I... I was discussing a potential partnership with Prospectus Technology. Once I gain their trust, I'll find a way to bring them down.""Really?" Drake's sharp eyes locked onto Tom's, a faint smile playing on his lips."Yes," Tom nodded quickly. "By the way, Mr. Mummery, what brings you back to the country? Something important?""Oh,

"In that case, do your research properly. Don't stir up trouble—unless you're prepared to deal with the fallout," Alexander warned.Drake's eyes searched Alexander's face for meaning. "What do you mean by that? I'm not sure I understand."Alexander closed his laptop and stood. "If you don't understand, then think it over."Without another glance, he walked away.Drake stood there, his expression darkening.As Alexander's figure disappeared, Drake's thoughts churned. The warning was unmistakable.Could Alexander know about the things he had done? But how?He had only just returned to Saintornia and hadn't even begun to target Prospectus Technology or meet with Nyla.Shaking off the doubts, he resolved: No matter what, he'd see this through. Not even Alexander could stop him.…After Drake left, Tom tried to stand but found his legs trembling. His fear of Drake hadn't diminished in the slightest.Drake's warning echoed ominously in Tom's mind. It was clear Drake knew he had di

Nyla paused for a moment, then looked up at Damon. "When did you buy this?""On my way back. I saw it while waiting at a red light and thought it would be perfect for you, so I bought it," he answered.Nyla took the necklace. The pendant was in the shape of a snowflake, sparkling beautifully under the light. She instantly loved it. "It's so beautiful! I really like it.""I'm glad you like it. So, can you forgive me, just for the sake of this necklace?" Damon asked.Nyla nodded with a smile. "Alright, I'll forgive you this time, just because of the necklace!"She walked to the mirror to check how it looked, then placed it into a nearby jewelry box.A look of confusion crossed Damon's face. "You like it, right? Why aren't you wearing it?""I'll wear it the next time I go out. Go check if Buddy is awake. I'll freshen up first," she replied.He nodded. "Okay."Nyla went into the bathroom to freshen up.When she came out, she saw Damon still standing in the bedroom.Unable to res

For a mother, nothing was more important than her child.If Gabriel had kidnapped Nyla, she wouldn't have hated him this much."Mm. I'll have someone keep an eye on her. She won't have another chance to come near you and Buddy," Damon said.He had also heard that Wren's husband had divorced her. Now that Gabriel was in jail, no one knew what crazy things she might do in her desperation."Okay, I'll leave you to work now. I won't disturb you," Nyla said.Damon hesitated for a moment, debating whether or not to tell her what Tom had mentioned earlier.When he didn't answer, Nyla asked, "What's wrong?"Damon shook his head. "It's nothing. You go ahead. I'll start working."Nyla frowned slightly, sensing something was off. "Are you sure? Is there something you want to tell me?""No, I'm just still a bit worried about Buddy," Damon replied.She sighed. "I am too, but he has to go to school. We'll just have to pay extra attention for now."After Gabriel's arrest, no one should hav

"That's more like it," Valarie chirped.Nyla couldn't help but say, "Valarie, stop bullying Brandon all the time."Brandon turned to her and sighed dramatically. "Aunt Nyla, since you mentioned it, I have to say something. You have no idea what I've been through these past six months, I— Ouch!"Before he could finish, Valarie pinched his waist. "What was that? Tell me, Brandon. Have you been unhappy these past six months?""N-No... I've been very happy..." Brandon winced."Have I bullied you then?" Valarie pressed."No..." Brandon murmured.Valarie huffed. "If not, then keep your mouth shut, or Nyla will really think I mistreat you." Brandon gave her a pitiful look, lowering his head like a scolded puppy.Before they married, Valarie had been gentle and beautiful in his eyes. But after marriage, he realized how wrong he had been.Gentle and beautiful? All an illusion.If he stayed out drinking and came home late, he'd have to choose between sleeping on the couch or outside.

Taking Mia to work was exhausting, but every time she smiled at Damon, it made everything worth it."She'll be fine. Didn't you just say she loves us both equally? She'll cry for a bit, but if you stop taking her to the office, she'll get used to being at home," Nyla reasoned.Seeing Nyla's determination, Damon finally relented. "Alright, we'll try it tomorrow. But if she cries too much, you'll have to take her to the office.""Deal!" Nyla said....After getting ready for work the next morning, Damon kissed Mia on the cheek and headed for the door.As soon as he changed his shoes at the entrance, she reached her little arms toward him, asking to be held. She had grown so accustomed to going to the office with him every day that it had become a reflex.Damon glanced at Nyla. "Nyla, maybe today we should—"Nyla interrupted, "Nope. You go to work. And if you're free for lunch, don't bother coming home. If you need to work late, no rush to come back either."Damon chuckled. "You'

"Brandon, from now on, I'm entrusting Valarie to you," Jonathan said. "She's been spoiled by us and can be a little willful at times. I hope you'll be patient with her in your marriage, and I wish you both a lifetime of happiness together."Brandon held Valarie's hand tightly, his expression solemn. "Dad, don't worry. I'll cherish her with all my heart."Jonathan nodded, stepping down from the stage. He discreetly wiped away his tears.After exchanging vows and rings, Valarie and Brandon sealed their love with a kiss, surrounded by cheers and applause.…On the way home from the wedding, Nyla glanced at Damon. "I saw Mr. Weir wipe his tears so many times today. When Bunny gets married, you'll definitely be just like him, sneaking off somewhere to cry."Damon's grip on the steering wheel tightened slightly, his gaze sharpening. "No one will ever be good enough for my daughter. If she never gets married, we'll take care of her for the rest of our lives."Nyla raised an eyebrow and

"Of course! When's the wedding?" Nyla asked.Valarie shook her head. "We haven't decided yet. He'll come to my house in a few days to discuss it with my parents."Nyla raised an eyebrow. "You're about to get really busy. Planning a wedding alone will take a lot of work.""Yeah, I'm already getting a headache just thinking about it," Valarie replied....For the next few months, Valarie was completely consumed by wedding preparations and work, barely having time to catch her breath.The wedding was set for August 8th, leaving them with less than six months to finalize everything.Valarie even traveled abroad several times to meet with designers and ensure her wedding dress was exactly what she wanted.Beyond the dress, she and Brandon spent hours discussing every detail—from the venue to the wedding favors and bouquet choices....After months of nonstop planning, the big day finally arrived.Valarie was already up, getting her hair and makeup done at 2:00 a.m.By the time N

Valarie looked up and saw the approaching glow.When the figure finally stopped in front of her, she realized it was Brandon.Frowning, she asked, "Where did you go? I waited so long for you. And what are you hiding behind your back?"Brandon flipped his phone face-down on the table, revealing the flowers he had hidden. Then he dropped to one knee."Valarie, I had planned a perfect proposal for you, but when you asked earlier about the meaning of wearing a wedding dress, I knew I couldn't wait any longer."Before I met you, my life revolved solely around work. I never paused for anyone—I never cared whether the sun was rising or setting, or if the moon was full or waning. But everything changed after I met you."I began cherishing the thought of greeting you every morning, sharing meals with you, and standing by your side for life."Valarie, I want every morning to begin with us waking up together, and every night to end with us holding each other as we fall asleep."Finally, B

Of course, every time they visited Valarie's home, Phoebe would subtly—or sometimes not so subtly—hint that they should get married.Brandon had always assumed Valarie wasn't interested in marriage since she never responded to those hints. He hadn't considered proposing.But today, seeing her so excited about picking out baby clothes made him start to imagine a future with her—building a family, raising a child.That thought filled his heart with warmth.After more than three hours of shopping, they finally left the mall, their arms full of bags.Once they loaded everything into the car, Valarie turned to Brandon. "I'm starving. Let's grab something to eat."Brandon nodded. "Sure. What are you in the mood for?""I'm not picky. Is there anything good around here? I don't feel like going too far," she replied.Brandon paused, then said, "There's a place with ethnic cuisine nearby. I went there once for a business meeting—it was pretty authentic. Want to give it a try?""Sounds g

Nyla was silent for a moment before nodding. "Alright. If you ever need Damon to help figure out Brandon's thoughts, just let me know.""I will. Don't worry about us, though. You just gave birth. Your main priority should be resting," Valarie said."Okay," Nyla replied.Valarie lingered in the bedroom for a while, but when she saw Nyla looking tired, she stood up and left.Downstairs, only Brandon was in the living room.Valarie walked over to him and asked, "Where's Damon?""He had something to take care of for work, so he went to the study. How's Aunt Nyla?" Brandon asked."She seems to be doing well, and the baby is adorable. Oh, right, I forgot to ask what the baby's name is. I only know her nickname is Bunny," Valarie said.Just thinking about Mia Sumner's cute little face made Valarie smile. She was already looking forward to the day the baby would call her godmother.A flicker of something crossed Brandon's eyes. "You really like kids, huh?""Of course! I've said befor

Once they were in the car, Nyla suddenly recalled Damon's phone call earlier. "By the way, what did Alexander want?"After a brief pause, Damon glanced at her. "He said Ms. Kinsey left you an inheritance and asked when we'd be able to go to Meristate to take care of it."Nyla pressed her lips together before replying, "Call him later and tell him to donate it or keep it for himself. I don't want it.""Alright," Damon replied.When they arrived home, Damon helped Nyla settle onto the couch, placing a pillow behind her back for support. Then, he said seriously, "Nyla, you've been through enough. Let's not have any more kids after this."During her first pregnancy with Mason, Damon hadn't been around, so he hadn't realized how difficult it was for her.Now, experiencing this pregnancy with her, every checkup and blood draw made his heart ache.Once Nyla gave birth, he planned to get a vasectomy. Two kids were enough for them.Nyla shot him a look. "This wasn't exactly planned, was

More than half an hour later, Nyla finally stirred from her nap.When she opened her eyes, she found Damon sitting by her bed, watching her. She froze for a moment, caught off guard.Rubbing her eyes, she realized he was still there and confirmed she wasn't dreaming.She slowly sat up, her voice still heavy with sleep. "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be in your study working?""I missed you, so I came to see you," Damon replied.Nyla narrowed her eyes. "You definitely have something to say if you're here all of a sudden."Damon chuckled, a little helpless. "I guess I can't fool you.""Of course not. I know you too well. Ever since I got pregnant, you've never come to see me like this in the afternoon," Nyla said."Alright. Go freshen up first, and I'll wait for you downstairs," Damon suggested."Okay," Nyla replied.After washing up, she went downstairs and sat beside Damon. "Alright, tell me. What's going on? You're acting all mysterious."Damon hesitated for a moment befo
