After graduating from university, Caroline went to Northornia for further studies, while Nyla returned to Saintornia. It had been over four years since they last met.Nyla responded warmly and asked for the hotel's location before finding a nearby restaurant known for its specialty dishes.…When Nyla entered the restaurant around 6:00 p.m., she spotted a short-haired woman with a youthful face waving at her from a window seat. "Nyla, over here!"Seeing Caroline's smile, Nyla felt as if she had been transported back to her university days and couldn't help but smile in return.Caroline had been a top student who continued her studies directly after earning her master's degree. She had come to Saintornia with her advisor for a conference.After Nyla took her seat, Caroline smiled and said, "Nyla, you haven't changed much since university.""It's you who haven't changed. Seeing you reminds me of the days you used to help me with experiments," Nyla replied."Don't mention it. You

Impatience flickered in Nyla's eyes. "I don't have anything to say to you, and I don't see you as a plague. To me, you're just a stranger."Clark looked somewhat helpless. "Why be so stubborn? We used to love each other. Even though we're apart now, I still want the best for you. It's just that my uncle isn't right for you."Nyla frowned and said coldly, "I don't want to hear your nonsense. Move aside!"Her good mood, which had brightened after meeting Caroline, was completely ruined by her encounter with Clark.Jordyn sneered. "Clark, stop talking. If she wants to be the third wheel, let her. It's not like you'll be the one embarrassed in the end."Nyla had initially tried to ignore them, but couldn't help glancing at Jordyn upon hearing this."Speaking of being a third wheel, Ms. Cheatham, you must have a lot of experience since you moved up from being a third wheel yourself, right?" she retorted.Jordyn's face turned ugly. "Nyla, what are you babbling about? Clark and I are l

Caroline didn't say anything more, merely reminding Nyla to be careful on her way back before heading into the hotel.…Nyla got home and sat on the sofa. She was about to rest when she noticed a corner of the invitation peeking out of her bag. She pulled it out and opened it. As she read through the conference details, her grip on the invitation tightened.Maybe Caroline was right. She should reconsider her future plans. She couldn't have children, and even without Rebecca's interference, she and Damon wouldn't have lasted.Besides, having already been burned once by Clark, she shouldn't make the same mistake again.With that thought, a determined glint appeared in her eyes.…The next morning, as soon as Nyla arrived at Prospectus Technology, she ran into Rebecca.To be precise, Rebecca was deliberately waiting for her."Ms. Jayston, good morning! I came to deliver breakfast to Damon. He has a sensitive stomach and doesn't like eating breakfast made by others, so I made it m

Before long, Spencer discovered that Clark was secretly meeting with a representative from the company Prospectus Technology intended to partner with next month.He quickly reported, "Mr. Sumner, Mr. Clark is meeting with Mr. Maddock at Pineer for lunch today."Damon's gaze turned icy. "Book a table.""Understood," Spencer replied.At noon…When Clark arrived at Pineer, he ran into Damon, and his expression shifted slightly."Uncle Damon, what are you doing here?" he asked.Damon raised an eyebrow and replied with a faint smile, "What's the matter? Just because you're here, does that mean I can't be?"Clark's gaze hardened slightly, but he managed a smile. "It's just unexpected to run into you while having lunch.""Quite a coincidence," Damon said, playing along.They walked into the restaurant together.As Clark watched Damon head toward Room 8, which he had reserved, his expression darkened. Just as Damon was about to reach the door, Clark stepped in front of him."Uncle

"Mr. Maddock, my secretary has already revised the contract and should be arriving in about five minutes," Clark replied.Peter's frown deepened, and he looked visibly displeased. "Mr. Sumner, we've already agreed on the partnership. Why the rush? Do you think I'm going to back out?"Noticing Peter's displeasure, Clark quickly attempted to explain, "No, Mr. Maddock, that's not what I meant.""Then what do you mean? I've told you I need to catch a flight, yet you're holding me up. Mr. Sumner, I have other options too!" With that, Peter stood up and left.As he opened the door, Damon emerged from the adjacent Room 9.Clark hurried after Peter. "Mr. Maddock… I can arrange a car to take you…"Before he could finish, he noticed Damon standing by the door, and his expression soured.Peter also noticed Damon and was taken aback. He quickly approached Damon. "Mr. Damon, what are you doing here? Mr. Clark said you were too busy to handle the negotiations, which is why he's doing it with

Avoiding eye contact with Damon, Clark lowered his head. "Uncle Damon, I realize I was wrong…"Damon's anger morphed into a chuckle. "Realize you were wrong? Do you understand that what you did is a crime? You used Prospectus Technology's name to deceive other companies into signing contracts with yours. If this gets out, you could be taken to court!"He was astonished by Clark's audacity.Clark, now genuinely terrified, looked up at Damon with fear. "Uncle Damon, I understand my mistake. When my dad handed over the company to me, the funds were nearly depleted. If I didn't secure partnerships with some major companies, the company would soon go bankrupt. "Please, just give me one chance. I promise I won't make the same mistake again!"Upon seeing Clark's frightened and guilty demeanor, Damon's anger intensified. "Realizing your mistake doesn't excuse the fact that you committed it in the first place."The room fell into silence.After a long pause, Clark finally looked up at D

Many researchers were eager to attend the conference, but the entry requirements were stringent, and invitations were difficult to obtain."My senior gave it to me. This conference aligns perfectly with her research focus," Nyla explained."Wow, your senior sounds amazing! Nyla… I'm really interested in this conference. Could you take me with you?" Melody asked eagerly.Nyla hesitated but then said, "I'll ask my senior if I can bring an extra person.""Great!" Melody exclaimed.Nyla sent a message to Caroline and soon received a reply that it was okay.When she learned she could attend the conference with Nyla, Melody's face lit up with excitement. "Nyla, thank you so much! I'm really grateful!""Alright. Let's clean up the lab and get ready to leave for the day," Nyla suggested.With that, she got up and headed toward the lab, with Melody quickly following.After they left, Gabriel glanced at the invitation Nyla had left on the desk, his eyes flickering with unspoken thoughts

As soon as Damon stepped out of the car, someone else appeared at the entrance of the apartment building.Damon's stride faltered, and his expression immediately hardened.Gabriel positioned himself in front of Nyla.Nyla's face, though free of makeup, remained strikingly beautiful, causing Gabriel's heart to stir as he gazed at her."Do you need something?" she asked, her tone frosty.Sensing her coldness, Gabriel looked somewhat disappointed but managed a forced smile. "Nyla, I just returned from visiting your dad. He misses you. If you're free tomorrow night, let's go see him together."Nyla pressed her lips together. "Okay. If I'm free, I'll go."Eager to avoid further interaction with Gabriel, she turned to leave.Just as Gabriel was about to call after her, he felt a cold stare. Turning, he saw Damon approaching, his face stormy.Nyla noticed Damon too. Her gaze flickered with confusion. He had publicly reconciled with Rebecca—why was he there?With that thought in mind

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,

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

"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

Mason nodded excitedly. "Okay!"They returned to the changing area, showered, changed into fresh clothes, and took the shuttle to the restaurant.As soon as they sat down, a server approached. "Mr. and Mrs. Sumner, we have several types of cuisine ready. What would you like for lunch?"Damon looked at Nyla. "Nyla, you decide."Nyla glanced at Mason and noticed his eyes fixed on the roasted chicken leg. She couldn't help but smile. "I'd like a steak, but I think Buddy wants the chicken leg."Following her gaze, Damon saw that Mason's eyes were practically glued to the golden-brown roasted chicken leg. He chuckled. "Alright, we'll have the steak, and Buddy can have the chicken leg.""Understood. How would you like your steak cooked? Any dietary restrictions?" the server asked.Nyla shook her head. "Medium-well, and no restrictions."Damon replied, "Medium-rare.""Got it. And for Mr. Mason, besides the chicken leg, would he like anything else?" the server asked."No, that's all

After changing their clothes, Damon led them to a shallower spring more suitable for Mason. He stepped in first to test the temperature, then carefully lowered Mason into the water.As soon as Mason felt the warmth, he beamed. "It's so cozy!"Damon chuckled and let go once he was sure Mason was steady. The shallow depth was perfect for Mason, as the water reached his neck when seated.For Damon and Nyla, however, it was a bit too shallow.After Mason adjusted to the spring, Damon turned to Nyla. "Should we move to one of the deeper springs? This one feels a little chilly."Nyla hesitated, glancing at Mason as he splashed around. "But I'd feel uneasy leaving Buddy here alone.""I'll call for some staff to keep an eye on him. He'll be fine," Damon said.After a moment of thought, Nyla nodded. "Alright."Once the staff arrived to supervise Mason, Damon led Nyla to a nearby, deeper spring.As she sank into the warm water, which reached up to her shoulders, she sighed in satisfacti

Drake stormed off, his anger radiating with each step.Reaching his car, he kicked the door hard in frustration. The action brought little relief, so he pulled out his phone and dialed a number."Put a hold on the collaboration between MK and the Kinsey Group. Don't move forward until I return," he commanded.Whatever the person on the other end said only fueled his fury."Do as I say! I'll take full responsibility for any consequences!" he growled before abruptly ending the call.Breathing deeply to suppress his rage, Drake yanked open the car door and sped away.…Two hours later, Damon pulled up to a luxury hot springs resort.Nyla's face lit up with delight as she turned to him. "I've always wanted to visit this place, but you've been so busy with work that I never mentioned it."Damon smiled. "Spencer recommended it. I might have to give him a raise when we get back."In the back seat, Mason's curiosity was piqued—he'd never been to a resort before.As the family exited

"Enough with the overthinking!" Lydia chided. "Take this time to relax. Once they're back, you'll probably be driving late nights again.""Fair enough," Walter remarked.…In the car, Damon glanced at Nyla. "The place we're going is a bit far. You and Buddy should rest. I'll wake you when we get there."She nodded. "Okay."Leaning back, she closed her eyes but couldn't fall asleep. Thoughts of leaving Damon and Mason in just three days weighed heavily on her.After a while, she opened her eyes, gazing at Damon with a mixture of longing and reluctance.Sensing her stare, Damon turned to her briefly. "What's wrong? Can't sleep?""Yeah," she admitted softly. "I just wanted to look at you. Don't mind me."Damon smiled. "Nyla, do you really think I can drive normally with you staring at me like that?"His teasing tone made her roll her eyes. "Buddy's here. Be serious!"From the back seat, Mason piped up, "Mommy, I covered my eyes! Pretend I'm not here. I can't see or hear anythin

Nyla and Damon exchanged a glance and couldn't help but laugh."Let's go upstairs and pack too," Damon suggested. "Otherwise, Buddy will be all done and rushing us."Nyla nodded. "Alright."The two headed to their bedroom, each packing clothes for the next few days.Since Nyla needed to gather her skincare products and makeup, Damon finished first. He walked over, intending to help, but she waved him off."Just stay put," she said. "If you touch this, you'll mess up everything I've just organized. Besides, you don't even know what's what."Damon chuckled, leaning against the dresser. "Fine. I'll just watch you."He didn't argue—makeup wasn't his forte. To him, all the lipsticks looked the same, though Nyla insisted there were big differences.It took another ten minutes before she finally zipped up her bag.Damon grabbed their suitcases and carried them downstairs, where Mason was already waiting.Upon seeing them, Mason's eyes lit up. "Mommy, Daddy! Are we leaving now? Where

Harrison's response was immediate. "I'm not going. I've lived in Saintornia all my life, and I'm used to it here. Besides, with my health as it is, I don't have many years left anyway. I'd rather not move around."Nyla's heart sank. "Dad, you'll live a long and healthy life."Harrison gave a faint smile. "At my age, with my body the way it is, every day is a gift. The only thing I can't stop worrying about is you. Otherwise, whether I live or die wouldn't matter to me.""Please take care of yourself," she implored."I will. Since your mother is willing to entrust the company she's built over the years to you, make sure you work hard and don't let her down," he advised.In Harrison's mind, Emerald was still the gentle and kind woman he'd known years ago. He had no reason to doubt what Nyla told him."I will," Nyla replied.After sitting with him a while longer and discussing a few things, she finally took her leave.When she returned to the car, her eyes were red, and tears shim
