Damon's voice was deep, carrying a seductive quality that made it hard to ignore.Nyla's eyelashes fluttered as she looked up at him. She broke into a radiant smile and replied, "No need, you can go now."Her smile was so dazzling that it momentarily left Damon in a daze.After a pause, he replied with a hint of disappointment, "Alright then.""Just go already. If you stay here any longer, the water in the bathtub will get cold," Nyla urged.Damon raised an eyebrow. "Are you sure you don't want me to stay and help you?""I really don't need it," Nyla insisted.If he stayed, how could she bathe properly?"Fine." Damon sighed and straightened up, his disappointment evident as he turned and left.Only after he disappeared from the bathroom doorway did Nyla finally breathe a sigh of relief. She began removing her clothes, careful not to put too much pressure on her injured foot. Limiting her steps, she carefully made her way to the edge of the bathtub.However, once she reached t

Nyla just wanted Damon to leave, so she replied with a frown, "I'll pay you back for it.""No way, this shirt means a lot to me," Damon said.Nyla ground her teeth in frustration. If it meant so much to him, why hadn't he treated it better?"What exactly do you want?" she asked.She glared at him, but given that she was sitting in the bathtub with her body partially exposed, it was more alluring than threatening.Damon's gaze deepened, and he grasped her hand before leaning in to kiss her again.Just before their lips touched, his low, gravelly voice whispered in her ear, "I want you."Nyla clenched the edge of the bathtub tightly, her body instinctively tensing.In a moment of distraction, one of them accidentally hit the shower switch. Steam quickly filled the bathroom, drowning out all sound.…The bath lasted for over two hours.When Damon finally stepped out of the bathroom, holding a flushed Nyla, he wore a satisfied smile. He set her down on the bed and went to grab a

Mason quickly pushed his confusion aside when he saw his favorite barbecue ribs and focused on eating.After finishing dinner, Nyla was just about to head back to her bedroom when Damon walked up to her and effortlessly picked her up.Seeing Lydia cover her mouth and chuckle, Nyla felt her cheeks flush. She quickly whispered in Damon's ear, "I can walk on my own.""You walk too slowly. I'm carrying you," Damon insisted.Nyla couldn't argue with him, so she went along with it.Instead of taking Nyla to the bedroom, Damon carried her to his study."Aren't you supposed to be in a meeting soon? Why are you taking me to your study?" she asked."You can rest on the sofa in my study and read. I'll take you upstairs after the meeting," he replied.Nyla frowned. "Will it disturb your meeting?"Damon smiled. "No."Their relationship had finally made substantial progress that day, and with Nyla's foot injured, Damon wanted to seize the opportunity to move into her room. He wasn't sure w

Seeing Damon's lips slowly approaching, Nyla quickly pushed against his chest. "I can sleep... I can sleep…""Then are you still going to Buddy?" Damon asked.Nyla remained silent for a moment before she relented. "No…""Okay, then let's sleep," Damon replied, releasing her and settling back into his original position.As Damon moved away, the fresh scent of pine on him gradually faded.Nyla clutched the blanket, a sudden and unexpected sense of loss sweeping over her. She wasn't actually hoping for something, was she?"Why aren't you covering yourself? Do you want me to help you?" Damon's deep voice broke through her thoughts."No, thanks," Nyla answered.She pulled the blanket up to her collarbone and closed her eyes, trying to drift off to sleep.Since Mason turned three, he had refused to sleep with her and insisted on sleeping in his own room.For the past two years, Nyla had slept alone, so suddenly having someone else in her space felt strange.Nyla thought she would

"But if I do that, the company shares he promised me…" Jane trailed off."Jane, you can't have it all. It's already a blessing in disguise that Grandpa hasn't completely lost faith in you. You'll have other chances for the shares in the future," Gabriel advised.Jane was upset, but she knew Gabriel was right. She reluctantly nodded and said, "Alright, I'll go talk to Grandpa."…A little over ten minutes later, Pedro's voice boomed through the study of the Wilkie mansion. His expression was grim. "How did you raise your son?! Wilhelm actually dared to tell such a lie! And you approached Damon for negotiations without verifying the facts? You've completely embarrassed the Wilkies!"Jane kept her eyes down, displeasure flickering in them, but she didn't dare retort.Once Pedro finished his tirade, Jane cautiously looked up and said, "Grandpa, it seems the collaboration with Prospectus Technology is definitely off."I met with Mr. Shane Tonra from Starlite Enterprise today, and he

Pedro was getting old, but none of his children or grandchildren seemed ready to take over. If things continued like this, the Wilkie Group would soon need to change its name.At that thought, a wave of sorrow washed over him.Among his grandchildren, Jane stood out as one of the more capable, but she still lacked the skills to manage the Wilkie Group.Gabriel was competent enough to turn around a gaming company that had been losing money for years, which proved he had some skill. However, he was still not a Wilkie, and Pedro didn't fully trust him.It seemed Pedro would have to find a way to train Theo. If Theo didn't work out, he would have to hand the company over to Jane in the future.…Unaware of Pedro's thoughts, Jane returned to her villa, looking dejected."Jane, why do you look so upset? Did Grandpa disagree?" Gabriel asked.Jane weakly nodded. "Yeah, he thinks half a billion dollars is too much."Before meeting with Pedro, she had already suspected the outcome. She

"Give me a kiss, and I'll let go," Damon requested.Nyla glared at him. "Damon, can you stop being so childish?""I just want a good morning kiss. If you don't give it to me, I won't let go," he insisted.At that moment, Nyla saw a reflection of Mason in Damon. Before Mason turned three, he had to have a kiss on his face every morning, or he would throw a tantrum. Just like father, like son.Thinking about how Valarie was waiting for her downstairs, Nyla leaned over and quickly pecked Damon on the cheek before pulling back."Can you let go of me now?" she asked, her tone calm, though the slight blush on her ears betrayed her.Damon didn't tease her further and released her hand.As Nyla sat up and swung her legs over the side of the bed, Damon's strong hands steadied her."I'll help you wash up," he said.With his assistance, she moved much more quickly, so she didn't refuse.Once they entered the bathroom, Nyla noticed a black toothbrush and cup beside her own. Everything el

"Hiking? What made you decide to do that?" Valarie asked."Buddy wanted to go. Anyway, how are you planning to deal with Zayn?" Nyla replied.The mention of Zayn made Valarie frown, disgust flickering in her eyes."The Updikes want to settle privately, but I've already reported it to the police. Whatever the judge decides, I'm going through with it. I won't settle privately," she answered.Just thinking about Zayn's disgusting behavior made Valarie feel sick. She couldn't believe she had agreed to marry him in the first place."Yeah, I support you. Make sure Zayn gets the punishment he deserves," Nyla said.Valarie nodded, just as her phone rang. Seeing it was Brandon, she said before answering, "I'll take this call outside.""Sure," Nyla said.Stepping out of the villa, Valarie picked up the phone. "What's up? Why are you calling me out of the blue?""Where are you now?" Brandon asked."I came over this morning to find Nyla. Why do you ask?" Valarie replied.There was a mom

"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
