Chapter 613

Author: Hello Spring
Seeing that Cyrus wanted to say more, Richard sneered. "Don't forget that you were the one who found the doctor to hypnotize him. You knew exactly what you were thinking back then, so don't pretend to be the good guy now."

Cyrus' face fell, and he took a deep breath, choosing to remain silent.

Beside them, Clark's eyes flashed with a cold glint.

Only if Damon became a fool would he lose the chance to compete for the company and Nyla. In that case, Clark might even be able to snatch Prospectus Technology away from Damon.

In the living room, each person was lost in their own thoughts, and for a moment, no one spoke.

Shortly after Damon returned to the company, Luca knocked on the door and entered.

"Mr. Sumner, the Hulles have announced that your engagement to Ms. Hulle has been dissolved. They're doing this to salvage their reputation," he informed.

Damon nodded. "Mm, there's no need to concern ourselves with this matter anymore."

"Understood," Luca replied.

At Damon's villa…

    "Alright, it's time for your nap. When your dad gets home from work tonight, you can ask him about going to the amusement park," Nyla announced."Okay!" Mason agreed.Excited, he took over an hour to fall asleep.After covering him with a blanket, Nyla got up and sat on the sofa. She picked up her phone and sent a message to Damon.From Mason's eager expression earlier, she figured it would make him very sad if Damon refused his request. Thus, before Damon returned, she needed to convince him to take Mason to the amusement park.She received no reply after sending the message.By evening, Nyla could no longer hold back and dialed Damon's number. It rang a few times before he picked up."Mr. Sumner, I sent you a message this afternoon. I'm not sure if you saw it," Nyla stated.Damon's cold voice came through the line. "I saw it."Nyla wanted to ask why he hadn't replied, but she then realized their only connection now was Mason. It was normal for Damon not to want to respond.

    Mason was thrilled, his cheeks flushed with excitement.After Damon left, he looked up at Nyla and cheered, "Mommy, Daddy said yes!"Mason was usually a reserved child, so seeing him so expressive made Nyla smile. "Yeah, I heard that."…In the following days, Mason eagerly counted down to Saturday, looking forward to it more with each passing day.Finally, Saturday arrived, and Mason woke up early.Nyla, who had light sleep, got up when he did.After they finished breakfast, Damon came downstairs. Seeing Nyla and Mason waiting on the couch, particularly Mason's eager expression, made Damon subconsciously speed up his breakfast.When they left, it was not even 8:00 a.m. yet.Nyla felt a bit worried. "Do you think the amusement park will be open this early?"Damon looked up from his documents, his expression nonchalant. "No worries;. I rented out the entire park."Nyla was taken aback.Damon noted her reaction and asked, "What's wrong?""Mr. Sumner, you know the whole point

    As time passed, more and more people filled the amusement park.Nyla held Mason's hand tightly, preventing him from running around too much and avoiding collisions with others or the risk of getting knocked over.Suddenly, Mason pointed excitedly at a ride not far away. "Mommy! I want to ride that!"Following Mason's gaze, Nyla felt troubled. He wanted to go on the swinging pendulum ride, but she had never liked high-altitude attractions.She turned to Damon and said, "Mr. Sumner, I'm not really a fan of high-altitude rides. Why don't you take Buddy on that one? I think there's a version for kids."Damon stared at her, speechless.Before he could respond, Mason dashed in front of him, hugging his leg and shaking it. "Daddy! I want to ride it! Please! Jasper said his dad took him on it several times when they went to the amusement park!"Seeing the eager look in Mason's eyes, Damon had no choice but to nod. "Fine, but I can only go once with you.""Great! Thanks, Daddy!" Mason e

    The familiar scent of pine momentarily caught Nyla off guard. It wasn't until the crowd cleared that Damon let go of her."Are you okay?" His cool, deep voice came from above her.Nyla pressed her lips together and replied softly, "I'm fine.""Good to hear," Damon said."Daddy, can you and Mommy ride the carousel with me?" Mason looked up at Damon, completely unbothered by what had just happened and unaware that Nyla had zoned out.Damon thought the carousel was childish, something only kids and women would enjoy. Just as he was about to decline, Mason grabbed his leg, looking up at him with eager eyes.Caught in Mason's hopeful gaze, Damon found himself relenting. "Alright, let's do it."They lined up at the carousel. Just as they were about to get on, Nyla's phone suddenly rang.When she saw it was Oliver, she looked up at Damon. "I need to take this call. If we get to the front of the line, just take Buddy on the ride."Damon, towering over Nyla, caught a glimpse of the nam

    Damon glanced at Nyla, noticed her with her head down, lost in thought, and frowned involuntarily. Ever since she had taken that call from Oliver at noon, she had been acting this way. Did Oliver really hold such significance for her?"Daddy…" Mason called out.Damon snapped back to reality and looked down at Mason, scooping him up in his arms. "Sure. If you like it, we can come here every week.""Yay!" Mason clapped his hands excitedly, his cheeks flushed with joy.Since they had played late into the day, they decided to find a nearby restaurant for dinner.After placing their orders, Nyla headed to the restroom.The restaurant featured wooden partitions between each table, adorned with lush green leaves. It was both beautiful and provided a degree of privacy.As Nyla walked past the partitions toward the restroom, a surprised voice suddenly called out to her, "Nyla?"She froze at the sound of the voice. Turning her head stiffly, she saw it was indeed Oliver. An involuntary wa

    Mason hadn't seen Oliver in a while, so his face lit up with excitement. "Okay!"As soon as Mason spoke, he sensed Damon's gaze on him. It seemed his father wasn't too keen on having Oliver join them for dinner.However, he had already agreed, and he didn't want to chase Oliver away, especially since he really liked him and wanted to eat together.Oliver sat down next to Nyla and turned to Damon. "Sorry to intrude."Damon's expression was indifferent. "If you knew it was an intrusion, Mr. Raynor, you shouldn't have followed Ms. Kinsey here in the first place, should you?"Catching the sarcasm in Damon's tone, Oliver remained unfazed and smiled. "I've always had meals with Nyla and Buddy before, and I thought you wouldn't mind since you know my relationship with Nyla."Damon remained silent, his face stoic. Admitting he minded would make him seem petty while claiming he didn't mind felt uncomfortable. Ultimately, he chose to ignore Oliver, treating him like he was invisible.Howe

    "I already know most of what happened between us. I've done you and Buddy wrong, and I'll do my best to make it up to you both," Damon said.Nyla looked up in disbelief, clearly surprised that Damon would say something like that.Under her intense gaze, Damon awkwardly turned his eyes away and coldly added, "Don't get the wrong idea. I'm just feeling guilty.""Don't worry. I won't misunderstand. Whatever happened before is in the past. I won't get carried away or use Buddy to entangle you," Nyla replied firmly.Damon felt a wave of irritation wash over him, and his voice turned even colder. "That's for the best!"With that, he turned and left the bedroom.As the bedroom door closed, the room fell silent, save for Mason's soft breathing.Nyla pressed her hand against her restless heart, trying to calm her chaotic thoughts. She went to the wardrobe, grabbed her pajamas, and prepared to take a shower.…When Nyla and Mason got up the next morning, Damon had already left for a bus

    Nyla looked at Clark calmly as she asked, "Is that so?"Clark was momentarily stunned, not expecting her response. He quickly replied, "Of course! We were so in love before. Have you forgotten?""Of course I haven't forgotten," Nyla said, raising an eyebrow. "And I have something to tell you too.""What is it?" Clark asked.Nyla beckoned. "Come a little closer." Confused, Clark stepped toward her.Just as he was a few steps away, she suddenly slapped him.The sharp sound echoed in the living room, leaving a clear handprint on Clark's face. His expression twisted in anger."Nyla!" His voice was filled with fury, and his gaze turned dark and cold.Nyla smiled, shaking her aching hand. "Your skin is really thick. My hand hurts now. This slap is for what I didn't get the chance to do five years ago. Consider it payback."Clark gritted his teeth, forcing himself to suppress his anger. "Nyla, you've slapped me and vented your anger. Does that mean I can pursue you again now?"Nyl

    "Yeah, I just got home. How's your mother doing now?" Valarie asked."Her condition is stable. Veevee… I need to ask you something," Stefan said.A flicker of surprise crossed Valarie's eyes. "What is it?"There was a brief silence before Stefan spoke again. "Never mind, it's nothing important. Get some rest. Goodnight."Before Valarie could respond, he had already hung up.She set her phone down, deciding to invite Stefan out for dinner in the next few days and have an honest conversation with him.…After the surgery, Michelle remained unconscious for a full day before finally waking up.The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Jayden sitting by her bedside."Michelle! You're awake!" Jayden exclaimed, relief flooding his voice as he quickly pressed the call button for the doctor.Once the doctor confirmed she was out of danger, Jayden exhaled deeply."Michelle, do you have any idea what I went through while you were unconscious? Please, don't ever do something so reckless a

    The moment Brandon spoke, silence blanketed the room.Yale and Nolan both looked visibly uneasy.Jayden froze for a second, then his face twisted with disappointment. "Fine! From now on, we're strangers!"With that, he shoved Nolan aside and stormed toward the hospital entrance.Nolan frowned and turned to Brandon. "Brandon, Jayden was just upset. Did you really have to make it so final? How are you going to fix things later?""I don't plan to fix anything. Because of him and Michelle, Valarie and I fought countless times. Do you really think I should sacrifice my girlfriend for two so-called friends?" Brandon retorted.Seeing the indifference in his expression, Nolan suddenly regretted sending that message earlier. If he hadn't texted Brandon about Valarie being with another guy, none of this would have happened."I'm heading home," Brandon said before turning to Valarie, taking her hand, and leading her out of the hospital.Watching them leave, Nolan felt a surge of frustrati

    A cold gust of wind blew through, and Brandon felt his heart sink.From the moment he first laid eyes on Valarie, he had made up his mind—he had to be with her, to marry her.He had pursued her for five years. They had finally gotten together, only to break up soon after.He had tried everything to win her back, but no matter what he did, she only seemed to drift further away.Was it really impossible for them to be together?"Valarie, you told me to stay away from Michelle for a month, and I did."Tonight, Jayden called to say that Michelle tried to commit suicide and is in the hospital being resuscitated. I still didn't go see her."I know I made a lot of mistakes before, but I've been trying to change. Can you give me one more chance?" he pleaded.Valarie remained silent for a long time. She knew she still had feelings for Brandon. When she met his pleading gaze, she felt herself softening.Finally, she looked at him and nodded. "Alright, but this is the last chance I'm giv

    Brandon didn't respond. He stepped out of the elevator, seized Valarie's wrist, and yanked her behind him.Valarie nearly lost her balance. As she steadied herself, she heard his cold warning. "Stefan, stay away from Valarie. If you don't, you won't be able to handle the consequences."Stefan met his gaze, his expression unreadable. "Mr. Sumner, you just made her almost fall. Let go of her."Brandon let out a sarcastic laugh. "She's my girlfriend. It's none of your business."Valarie immediately yanked her wrist free. "Brandon, what the hell is wrong with you? Why are you acting like this in the middle of the night?"Brandon turned to her. "And what about you? What are you doing here so late? Don't tell me you've actually fallen for this kid who's younger than me."At first, he hadn't taken Stefan seriously. He had assumed Valarie was just using him to get back at him.But as she grew kinder to Stefan, panic began to creep in.Brandon was terrified that she really liked Stefan

    Stefan looked at Valarie, his eyes red. "Veevee, thank you! I'm sorry for causing you trouble.""It's fine, it's not a big deal. Go check on your mom," Valarie said.After Stefan left, Valarie turned to the nurse. "Can I pay the hospital fees now?"The nurse nodded. "Yes, you can."Once Valarie finished paying and the nurse confirmed the transaction, she said, "Ms. Weir, I'll have my colleagues move Mr. Foley's mother back to her room now.""Okay," Valarie replied.She didn't argue with the nurse. After all, the hospital was just following protocol. Stefan's mother had been behind on payments for over two weeks, and the fact that they hadn't moved her out sooner was already lenient.Before long, Stefan's mother was back in the ICU.Seeing the medical equipment reconnected, Stefan let out a breath of relief.After confirming his mother's condition was stable, he turned to Valarie. "Veevee, I really don't know what I would've done without you tonight. Thank you. I promise I'll f

    Yale shook his head. "No idea. Let's check on Michelle first."He had no intention of getting involved in whatever had happened between Brandon and Valarie."Alright," Nolan replied.When they reached the ER, Michelle was still being treated.Jayden sat in a chair in the hallway, head down, lost in thought. Hearing footsteps, he slowly looked up.When he saw that Brandon wasn't with them, he let out a bitter laugh. "Of course, he didn't come. Heartless bastard."Yale sighed. "Jayden, you can't blame Brandon for this. He promised Valarie he wouldn't see Michelle for a month."Given Brandon's personality, he wouldn't break his promise, no matter the trouble Michelle stirred up."So a stupid promise means more than someone's life?" Jayden shot back.Yale frowned. Seeing that Jayden wasn't in the mood to listen to reason, he didn't argue. In his opinion, Michelle had brought this on herself. If she thought attempting suicide would make Brandon cave, she was dead wrong.If he we

    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
