Soon after, Nyla dismissed the idea of marrying Oliver just to prevent Damon from taking Mason. It wouldn't be fair to Oliver at all.No matter what, she refused to hand Mason over to Damon.…In the following days, Damon did not appear before Nyla again. Rather than feeling relieved, her mood grew heavier.On Friday, as the workday came to a close, Nyla had a premonition and felt increasingly restless.Her anxiety peaked when she received a call from Pauline, who informed her that Mason was not at kindergarten and that he had been picked up by his father.Nyla was taken aback. She forced herself to stay calm, replying, "I understand. You go home first. I know where he is."After hanging up, her hands trembled as she dialed Damon's number.She called several times, but he deliberately ignored her. Gritting her teeth, she continued to try.Finally, after what felt like an eternity, he answered."What is it?" Damon asked."Damon, where have you taken Buddy?! Bring him back imm

Damon's expression darkened significantly. "If it weren't for you hiding Buddy's existence, I wouldn't have missed these years of his growth."Nyla, your selfishness is the reason it took us this long to find each other. I won't hand my child over to a woman as selfish as you!""You have no right to call me selfish! Since you won't return Buddy to me, we have nothing more to discuss. I'll see you in court!" With that, Nyla turned and left.Damon glared at her retreating figure, filled with disgust and anger. He had never encountered such an ungrateful woman.His phone rang, and he picked it up to see that it was Spencer."Mr. Sumner… Buddy has been crying for Ms. Kinsey and refuses to eat anything. His eyes are swollen," Spencer informed him.Damon's expression remained taut and cold. "Let him starve if he doesn't want to eat!""But if he keeps crying like this, it's not going to help…" Spencer tried to reason.After a moment of silence, Damon replied coldly, "I'll be there rig

Nyla scoffed. "Damon took my son without my consent and now wants to fight me for custody? He's dreaming!"Gerrard adjusted his glasses and handed her a document from his briefcase."Ms. Kinsey, this is the paternity test report showing that Mason Kinsey and Mr. Damon Sumner are father and son. He has the right to contest custody," he said.Nyla didn't take the document. Instead, she looked at Gerrard with a poker face. "That paternity test was done without my consent. I won't acknowledge it!"Gerrard remained calm. "Ms. Kinsey, this paternity test holds legal validity. My client is prepared to file a lawsuit. Of course, it would be best to resolve this peacefully, but if that's not possible, he will have to pursue legal action."Regardless, Damon was determined to fight Nyla for custody of Mason.Nyla nodded. "Fine, let him file a lawsuit."With that, she walked past Gerrard and left.Gerrard called Damon to update him. "Mr. Sumner, Ms. Kinsey still refuses to agree. It seems

Damon's expression darkened significantly. Lacking any experience with children, he instinctively applied the same tactics he used with his subordinates to Mason, only to find it backfiring spectacularly.Frustration filled his eyes as he looked at Mason, who was wailing loudly.If Mason weren't his son, he would have thrown him out for causing such a scene in his own home.Spencer returned with snacks and walked into the bedroom to find Damon and Mason locked in a standoff—one looking furious and the other crying his eyes out.A headache began to form in Spencer's temples."Mr. Sumner, didn't Buddy calm down before I left? How did he start crying again so quickly?" Spencer asked.Damon, clearly agitated, snapped, "You handle it!"With that, he turned and walked away.Spencer was rendered speechless.Damon had been the one to make the kid cry, and now he was expected to fix it?Sighing in resignation, Spencer set down the snacks and squatted beside Mason, trying to comfort hi

Erin's expression darkened. After spending so many years with Damon, she would never allow a sudden, unexpected child to derail her plans.Taking a deep breath, she suppressed her anger and resentment. She spoke in a calm tone. "Damon, I'm having a hard time accepting this right now. Please give me a week."I need some time to process this. Once I've sorted it out, I'll come find you. Let's not contact each other in the meantime."Fearing that Damon would bring up the idea of breaking their engagement again, Erin abruptly hung up. She gritted her teeth, anger boiling beneath the surface.That bitch, Nyla, had the audacity to inform Damon about the existence of that child without any warning! She had even pretended not to be interested in Damon, but it had all been an act!Erin dialed another number, her voice seething with anger. "What have you been doing?! Why haven't I heard anything about what I asked you to do?!""It's coming along, Ms. Hulle. Don't worry," the person on the

Caroline hadn't asked directly, but she sensed that Bailey still hadn't moved on from her past relationship, which was why she was reluctant to meet Gerrard."Nyla, I can introduce you to other lawyers. I know several who are just as capable as my sister. You could consider them," Caroline suggested.Nyla shook her head. "For custody cases like this, your sister is the most well-known. She has never lost a case she's taken, so I really want to give it a shot. I just want to meet her. If she declines, I won't push her."If it weren't for Mason's custody, she wouldn't have reached out to Caroline for help.Caroline understood that and nodded after a moment of hesitation. "Alright, I'll arrange for you to meet Bailey, but whether or not you can convince her is up to you.""Thank you, Caroline!" Nyla exclaimed."Don't thank me just yet. The chances of success are low. Besides, I've watched Buddy grow up, so I'll do everything I can to help," Caroline replied.Nyla felt a wave of gra

The living room fell into a tense silence, the temperature dropping sharply.Oliver turned to Nyla, disbelief written all over his face, mixed with a hint of joy flickering in his eyes. He knew she was trying to deceive Damon, but seeing her stand up for him made him feel happy nonetheless.Damon narrowed his eyes, drumming his fingers idly on the table. "You can marry him if you want. I don't care. But I won't be giving Buddy back to you."Nyla's expression darkened. Just as she was about to respond, a small figure dashed toward her."Mommy…" Mason rushed into Nyla's arms, clinging to her leg and crying heart-wrenchingly.Hearing him sob over the phone had been one thing, but seeing his tear-streaked face now made Nyla's blood boil."What have you done to Buddy? Why is he crying like this?!" she demanded, glaring at Damon.Damon's expression remained icy. "He just left you for a strange environment. It's normal for him to cry. He'll settle down."Nyla was fuming. "He's just a

The Raynor Group would suffer some losses in the short term, but their foundation would remain intact.Damon stood up and, as he walked out, said, "Mr. Raynor, many people are hoping to see the Raynors fall from grace. I hope you won't regret it!"With that, he pushed past Oliver and Nyla and left.Oliver turned to Nyla, his gaze softening. "Nyla, it's okay now. Let's take Buddy home."Nyla didn't move, her eyes locked onto him. "Oliver, what did you do to Prospectus Technology?"She had clearly heard Damon's words. Oliver had convinced Damon to stop obstructing her from taking Mason away, but it was evident that the Raynor Group had paid a price for it.Oliver's expression remained calm. "Don't worry. I know what I'm doing. It won't impact the Raynor Group too much. My dad once told me that if I let the Raynor Group fall, he'd kick my ass, so I won't act recklessly."Realizing he was just trying to comfort her, Nyla bit her lip and refrained from pressing further. She underst

"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
