Chapter 1188

Author: Hello Spring
"Alright, let's take a nap. We still have to play with Buddy later," Damon suggested.

Nyla shook her head. "Before we nap, there's something I need to tell you."

"What is it?" Damon asked.

She pulled a small notebook from her bag, flipped it open, and handed it to him. "This is what Buddy wrote last night—all the rewards he wants.

"I plan to buy the remaining ones over the next two days. I'll also prepare a few extra gifts. In the future, for his birthdays or holidays, just pick something from here and give it to him for me."

As soon as she finished speaking, Damon frowned. "Even after you go to Meristate, you can still send him gifts yourself. Are you planning never to come back?"

"No, listen to me. I just want to be prepared. If I can stay in touch with both of you after I leave, then you won't need to use these gifts. I'll choose new ones every year and send them myself. I'm just getting these ready in case something happens," Nyla explained.

Damon protested, "There won't be

    Damon nodded. "Got it. You don't need to worry about these things. You're going to Meristate alone. If something happens, I won't be able to reach you right away. You need to be careful.""I know," Nyla replied."You can't trust Alexander or Drake, but they don't get along. You might be able to use that to your advantage," Damon suggested."As for the internal power dynamics of the Nixons, I don't have all the details yet, but from what I've found, your stepfather has a son and a daughter with your mother."He also has a mistress, and they have a son together. For the past ten years, he's essentially been living with her, and his relationship with your mother is terrible."Now that he's sick, he wants to pass the Nixons down to his mistress' son. Your mother won't accept that, so there's been a lot of internal conflict."I wasn't able to find out much more beyond that. If you can gather more information once you're there and can contact me, call me. I'll help you."Hearing Damon

    Damon and Nyla didn't speak. They simply lay there, holding each other, feeling time slowly slip away.Eventually, they both drifted off to sleep.The next morning, Nyla and Damon were still asleep when there was a knock at the door."Daddy! Mommy! Are you awake?" Mason called.Nyla stirred but still felt groggy, her eyes refusing to open. "Damon, can you get the door for Buddy?""Alright." Damon sat up, yawning as he walked to the door.When he opened it, he looked down to see Mason fully dressed—hat, mask, everything—looking completely ready to go.Seeing that Damon was still in his pajamas, Mason frowned. "Daddy, it's already past eight, and you guys are still sleeping?"Damon leaned against the doorframe, looking a little helpless. "Mommy and I went to bed late last night. Can you let us sleep for just 30 more minutes?"Mason thought about it seriously before nodding. "Alright. I'll wait for you in the living room.""Good." Damon closed the door and climbed back into bed,

    Nyla looked appalled as she quickly asked, "Which hospital?"After receiving the details, she hung up and turned to Damon. "My dad suddenly collapsed and was rushed to the hospital. I need to go see him.""I'll go with you," Damon said."No, you stay here with Buddy. Keep playing and enjoying the trip. I'll go check on him first. If it's not serious, I'll return," Nyla refused."Dad isn't feeling well. Buddy and I would just be worrying here anyway. We'll go with you," Damon insisted.Meeting Damon's serious gaze, Nyla hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Alright."…They rushed to the hospital, arriving over an hour later.As soon as they reached the hospital room, the housekeeper quickly approached. "Ms. Kinsey, Mr. Jayston hasn't woken up yet."Nyla frowned. "What happened? Why did he suddenly collapse?"The housekeeper shook her head. "I don't know. This morning, a well-dressed middle-aged woman came to visit him. Mr. Jayston sent me out to buy groceries. When I got ba

    "There's no need. My dad has no connection to the Kinseys anymore. Tell her to stay out of his life," Nyla said, hanging up.On the other end, Alexander immediately dialed Emerald."What is it?" Her tone was cold and impatient."Aunt Emerald, did you go see Nyla's father?" Alexander asked."How did you know?" Emerald shot back."Nyla just called me. She said her father collapsed after seeing you and is still unconscious in the hospital," Alexander explained.There was a brief silence before Emerald's voice returned, laced with sarcasm. "All I did was tell him I was taking Nyla to Meristate and bring up some past matters. If that was enough to make him collapse, then his mental fortitude is laughably weak."Alexander sighed. "Aunt Emerald, you and her father have been divorced for so long. There's no reason to see him anymore. If something serious happens because of this, Nyla will definitely resent you."He added, "Don't forget, she's lived with her father all these years. Her

    Nyla pressed her lips together. "Dad, don't worry. Since I've chosen to go to Meristate, I've already prepared myself to face whatever comes my way. You don't need to worry about me."Harrison wanted to say more, but just then, the hospital room door opened. The housekeeper entered with a bag of clean clothes for him."Ms. Kinsey, has Mr. Jayston woken up?" she asked.Nyla nodded. "Yes, he's awake. The doctor just came by and said there's nothing serious for now. They'll continue monitoring him over the next few days.""Alright, Ms. Kinsey. If you have things to take care of, you can go ahead. I'll stay here and call you if anything comes up," the housekeeper offered.Since there wasn't much for Nyla to do at the hospital, she nodded and stood up. "Alright. If anything happens, call me immediately. If it gets too difficult for you to manage alone, I'll hire a couple of nurses to help."The housekeeper quickly waved her hands. "No need, no need. I can handle it on my own.""Okay.

    Damon hadn't mentioned it because he didn't want Nyla to worry.After a brief hesitation, she quietly closed the door and left, careful not to wake him.Lydia saw her leaving alone with the container and quickly asked, "Ms. Kin— Mrs. Sumner, isn't Mr. Sumner going with you?"Nyla turned to her and nodded. "He fell asleep. He hasn't had proper rest in a long time. Let him sleep. Don't disturb him.""Understood. Should I arrange a driver for you?" Lydia asked."No need. I'll drive myself." Nyla turned and left.…She arrived at the hospital and carried the soup to the inpatient ward.As she approached the hospital room, voices reached her from inside.She pushed the door open and saw a young man, likely in his 20s, dressed in a suit. He was standing beside the bed, holding a bag of supplements and attempting to hand them to the housekeeper, who was refusing to accept them.On the hospital bed, Harrison frowned and instructed the housekeeper to send the man away, refusing the gi

    A trace of guilt flickered in Harrison's eyes. He didn't say anything further and lowered his head to drink the soup.Only after finishing did Nyla stand up. "Dad, I have something to take care of this afternoon, so I won't stay with you. If anything comes up, just give me a call."Harrison nodded. "Alright, go ahead."Once outside the hospital, Nyla got into her car but didn't start it right away. Instead, she flipped through the list of rewards Mason had requested, categorizing them before finally starting the engine and heading straight for the mall.In addition to the gifts Mason had asked for, she also bought him birthday presents for every year up until he turned 20.After carefully selecting and packaging everything, she arranged for the items to be delivered to the villa after 9:00 p.m., when Mason would likely be asleep.By the time she finished and headed home, it was already past 6:00 p.m.Winter nights fell quickly, and by the time she parked in front of the villa, t

    Seeing the two large trucks filled with gifts, Damon raised an eyebrow in surprise. "How much did you buy?""I bought all of his birthday and holiday gifts until he turns 20," Nyla answered. "I also labeled and categorized them by year. When the time comes, you can just pick one and give it to him."Damon was at a loss for words.After the service staff moved everything into the designated room, Nyla finished organizing the gifts.When she turned around, she found Damon leaning silently against the doorframe.Sensing something was off, she asked, "Damon, what's wrong?"He pressed his lips together, meeting her gaze. "You prepared all these gifts for Buddy... What about me? Don't you have something for me to keep? Are you really planning to just leave like this?"Nyla stepped closer, standing directly in front of him. "Buddy is the most precious thing I'm leaving for you. And I'm not disappearing forever. One day, the three of us will be together again."Damon pulled her into hi

    Nyla looked at Valarie. "What do you mean, giving each other looks? Just eat. I made your favorite—spicy chicken."Valarie nodded. "Okay."As they ate, Damon glanced at Brandon. "When are you going back to the company?"It had been nearly a month since Brandon left the Sumner Group. If he stayed away much longer, the people he had trained might start siding with someone else.Brandon paused mid-bite, instinctively glancing at Valarie across the table. She didn't even look his way.After a brief silence, he lowered his gaze. "In a few days.""Alright." Damon didn't press the issue.Brandon was the CEO of the Sumner Group. Damon couldn't keep treating him like a subordinate.Halfway through the meal, Brandon's phone rang.Seeing Jayden's name on the screen, he frowned and ignored it. But the phone rang again. And again.After declining multiple calls, he realized the others at the table were all looking at him.He picked up the phone. "It might be urgent."Stepping aside, he

    "I just wanted to see if you'd tell me the truth. Now I know—you don't trust me," Jayden said.Michelle cried, "Fine! I admit it. I sent Stefan after Valarie. I wanted him to ruin her relationship with Brandon! Go ahead and tell Brandon if you want! I don't care!"She stood, ready to leave.Before she reached the door, Jayden's voice echoed behind her."I won't tell Brandon," he said. "But I won't help you anymore, either. There's still time to stop this. You can walk away now."Michelle's footsteps faltered momentarily, but she didn't turn back. She had never regretted her choices—why would she stop now?As long as she could have Brandon in the end, she wouldn't give up.If Jayden refused to help, she'd just have to figure it out on her own.…That evening, as Valarie got off work, she received a call from Nyla."Valarie, come over for dinner tonight! Oh, and by the way, I sent you a thank-you gift last night. Make sure you accept it," Nyla said.Valarie had seen Nyla's mon

    "Whether or not you're having me followed, who I choose to spend time with is my business. I hope you'll stop prying into my private life," Valarie said.Brandon grabbed her wrist, his voice low and firm. "Valarie, the month is almost up. Don't forget the promise you made."She pulled away. "There's still a week left. We'll talk when the time comes."With that, she turned and left.Brandon watched her go, frustration darkening his face.The anonymous photos he'd received that morning were still fresh in his mind, making his expression even stormier.Forcing himself to stay calm, he pulled out his phone and called his assistant. "Find out who sent those photos to my email this morning."After hanging up, his mood remained grim. It was time to give Stefan a warning.Just as he was about to leave, his phone rang again.His eyes flickered with annoyance at the unfamiliar number. Without hesitation, he rejected the call and blocked it.Ever since he'd cut off Michelle, she'd been

    Valarie turned to the couch and saw Stefan sitting there, watching her with concern."You stayed here all night?" she asked, surprised."Yeah." He nodded. "You drank too much last night. I was worried about you, so I stayed to look after you.""That must've been exhausting," Valarie remarked.Stefan shook his head. "It wasn't. How do you feel now? I bought you breakfast and made you honey water this morning. If your head hurts, the honey water should help.""I'll wash my face first." Valarie got out of bed and went to the bathroom.While freshening up, she noticed several faint red marks on her neck and chest—suspiciously like hickeys. She frowned slightly.When she stepped out, Stefan was still on the couch, looking especially well-behaved.Valarie sat across from him, pointed at her neck, and asked bluntly, "Did you do this?"The moment the words left her mouth, Stefan's face turned bright red. He lowered his head, avoiding her gaze. "I... I couldn't help myself. But I swear

    After placing Valarie on the couch, Stefan stepped out of the private room to answer the call.Michelle sneered. "Stefan, tomorrow is the deadline for your mother's medical bill, and you haven't made any progress."Looks like you really don't care about the money. Or… have you gotten close to Valarie and don't need it anymore?"What a pity. Valarie still doesn't know you have ulterior motives. Do you want me to help tell her?"Stefan lowered his head, his eyes dark with emotion. "I'll send the photos in a bit."He hung up without hesitation.Slipping his phone back into his pocket, he didn't return to the private room immediately. Instead, he leaned against the wall and lit a cigarette. The swirling smoke obscured his features, making it impossible to read his expression.It felt like his entire life had been shrouded in darkness since birth. No matter how hard he fought, he could never break free.His phone buzzed with a new message from Michelle.Michelle: [Stefan, your mo

    Nyla continued. "And Buddy?""Mr. Mason has already gone to bed," Lydia reported.Nyla nodded, then turned and made her way to the study.She gently pushed the door open and saw Damon fast asleep on the couch. Quietly, she stepped inside.The couch wasn't very big—perfect for her to nap on while reading. But for someone as tall as Damon, it looked rather cramped.As she moved closer, she noticed he hadn't even loosened his tie before falling asleep. A flicker of distress crossed her eyes. He must have been exhausted from all the wedding preparations.Carefully, she reached out, loosened his tie, and unbuttoned the top few buttons of his shirt. Then she grabbed a blanket and draped it over him.After making sure he was comfortable, she left the room as quietly as she had entered.Since she wasn't sleepy yet, she decided to sit in the living room for a while.Just as she settled on the couch, Lydia approached with a shawl. "Mrs. Sumner, the temperature drops at night. Keep warm.

    Nyla was momentarily stunned but reached out to accept the gift."Can I open it now?" she asked.Alexander nodded. "Of course."She lifted the lid and found a stunning ruby necklace inside, surrounded by diamonds that shimmered like a star-studded sky. It was breathtaking—impossible to look away from."It's beautiful. Thank you," she gasped."As long as you like it, that's all that matters. By the way, where's Buddy?" Alexander asked."He's probably in the main hall," Nyla answered.Alexander chuckled. "Alright. I'll go look for him."As soon as he left, Valarie let out a gasp of amazement. "Nyla, who was that guy? I just saw this necklace on the news a while ago. It was auctioned off for 20,000,000 dollars to a mysterious buyer! And now, I see it in real life—right here!"Nyla was taken aback. She hadn't expected the necklace to be that valuable.She examined it again. Aside from its beauty, it didn't seem all that special."Are you sure it's worth so much?" she asked.Val

    Opening the food container, Nyla found it filled with all her favorite snacks. She couldn't help but smile."Valarie, you barely ate anything earlier. Want some?" she asked.Valarie glanced at the food, raised an eyebrow, and replied, "I'm already full—from all the PDA I've been force-fed today."Time passed quickly, and before they knew it, it was already 2:00 p.m.Valarie led Nyla out of the dressing room, where Harrison waited at the entrance, seated in his wheelchair.The moment Nyla saw him, her eyes welled with tears. "Dad."Harrison's voice thickened with emotion. "I'm here to walk you down the aisle."Nyla squeezed his hand as they descended the stairs together.At the entrance to the grand hall, Nyla held her bouquet with one hand and her father's hand with the other, her heart racing with anticipation.The doors swung open.Damon stood at the end of the aisle, dressed in a sharp white suit. His eyes locked onto Nyla's, filled with nothing but love and tenderness.E

    At that moment, Nyla finally understood what Damon had meant by a "surprise."Her eyes welled with emotion as she turned to Valarie. "Where is he now?""I'm not sure, but he's probably still handling the wedding preparations. Try on the dress first and see if it fits!" Valarie said with a grin.Nyla blinked back her tears and nodded. "Okay."With Valarie's help, she slipped into the wedding dress.It fit her perfectly—just as she had imagined.Gazing at her reflection in the mirror, she felt a bit dazed.It had been so long since she'd last worn a wedding dress—so long that she had almost forgotten what it felt like.Beside her, Valarie admired the sight. "You look gorgeous! My best friend never disappoints. Oh, wait—there's still this!"Nyla turned to see Valarie holding a diamond-studded tiara. She couldn't help but smile."Let me put it on for you," Valarie offered."Okay."Valarie carefully adjusted the tiara on Nyla's head, making sure it sat just right."Perfect," sh
