"Thank you, Damon!" Nyla exclaimed.She looked up at him, her eyes glistening with tears. This thank you was not just for him rescuing her from danger all those times, but also for his unwavering love and the fact that he had never given up on her. He had chosen her, steadfastly.Damon reached out and gently wiped the tears from the corner of her eye, his voice tender. "Silly girl, more than 'thank you', I want to hear you say 'I love you'."Nyla's cheeks flushed, and she couldn't help but lower her gaze. "There are other people here."She was reserved and not used to being overly affectionate with someone she liked in front of others.Upon seeing her blushing, Damon's mood lifted, and he smiled. "Alright, then when we're back tonight, say it just for me.""Okay..." Nyla agreed shyly.He guided her to her seat and handed her the menu. "Take a look at what you want to eat. This restaurant's foie gras and caviar are both good."Nyla nodded, flipping through the menu. She ordered

The mysterious prize was a luxurious five-day, four-night trip to Cryostein for two, and a young couple had won it.Noticing that Nyla seemed a bit disappointed for not winning, Damon comforted her, "If you want to go, we can leave tomorrow."Nyla looked at him and shook her head. "It's okay. I'm too busy with the experiment right now. I can't leave."Damon frowned. "Then when you do have some free time, we'll take a trip—the three of us.""Okay," she said.They walked out of the restaurant together. Damon draped a coat over Nyla's shoulders and took her hand as they made their way to the parking lot.Halfway there, snow began to fall.Nyla stopped in her tracks, her face lighting up with delight. "It's the first snow of the year!"The winter in Saintornia was cold and damp, and snow was a rare sight.Nyla held out her hand to catch the falling snowflakes, her eyes sparkling with joy.Damon watched her with a gentle smile, his gaze filled with adoration. While she admired the

Nyla wore a white knitted sweater, and the sapphire necklace sparkled brilliantly against the white, drawing all attention to it.Damon imagined how stunning she would look in the summer, when her delicate collarbones were more exposed. Any jewelry seemed to look perfect on her."You look amazing," he said."Thank you," she replied."Nyla... what should I do? I can't stop thinking about kissing you," Damon murmured.Nyla looked up, her gaze locking with his deep, intense eyes. Instinctively, she curled her fingers.The next second, she reached up and pulled him into another kiss, her lips pressing firmly against his.Neither of them knew who lost control first, but soon the kiss grew overwhelming, stirring emotions they struggled to contain.After what felt like an eternity, they finally broke apart, both flushed and breathless.About half an hour later, they got out of the car and entered the villa.By then, it was close to 10:00 p.m., and Mason had already gone upstairs to

Before Lydia could finish, Damon interrupted, "Lydia, these sandwiches are really good. Grab two more for me from the kitchen, please."Lydia's attention was successfully diverted. She replied, "Sure, I'll get them right away."Once she left, Nyla quickly walked over and sat across from Damon."If you're really not feeling well, don't push yourself," Damon said.Nyla nodded. "I know."After breakfast, the two headed to work.Throughout the morning, Nyla tried to minimize her movements, staying seated as much as possible. Thankfully, it wasn't too exhausting.Close to lunchtime, she received an unexpected call from Gabriel."Nyla, do you have time for lunch? I have something I'd like to discuss with you," Gabriel invited.Nyla's tone turned cold. "What is it? Just say it over the phone. There's no need for us to meet."A brief silence followed on the other end before Gabriel spoke again, his voice slightly somber. "Do you really dislike me this much?""I don't have time to en

"Understood. As for Ms. Wilkie..." Shane inquired."Go ahead with the signing as usual," Gabriel replied."Got it," Shane answered.After ending the call, Gabriel's expression turned icy.If Nyla had never returned, he might have spent the rest of his life with Jane for Wilhelm's sake. But now that Nyla was back, Jane had become nothing more than an obstacle—one that needed to be removed.As for Wilhelm, Gabriel was confident he would quickly accept Nyla as his new mother.When Gabriel's secretary entered after a knock, he couldn't help but comment on the rare sight of Gabriel's smile, "Mr. Hackett, you seem to be in a good mood today."Gabriel, known for his stoic demeanor and unapproachable aura, rarely displayed his emotions openly. "Not bad," he replied casually."These are the quarterly financial reports for the company. Please review them when you have time," the secretary said, handing him a file.Gabriel accepted it with a nod. "Alright. You can go."After the secr

"Mr. Hackett, I look forward to working with you," Tom said.After finishing their conversation, Gabriel left first.Over half an hour passed before Tom finally stepped out of the private room.Turning a corner, he bumped into Brandon and Valarie.Brandon had his arm around Valarie's shoulder, and both of them were smiling.When they saw Tom, their smiles faltered.Valarie averted her gaze, pretending not to see him, while Brandon's expression cooled. He greeted, "Mr. Genge, fancy seeing you here. What a coincidence.""Indeed," Tom replied with a slight smile.His gaze lingered on Valarie's indifferent profile, a mix of frustration and longing flickering in his eyes. At his sides, his hands slowly clenched into fists.There was a time when Valarie's eyes had been filled with him, her heart wholly his.Now, she wore that detached expression whenever she saw him. Watching her smile sweetly at another man while sparing him not even a glance felt like being pierced repeatedly by

Was Michelle trying to stir the pot?Before Valarie could respond, Brandon looked up at Michelle, his tone slightly cold. "None of you are my girlfriend, so why would I treat you the same?"Michelle's smile froze, and an awkward silence settled over the room.Jayden's grin faded as he said, "Brandon, Michelle was just trying to be friendly. Was it necessary to be so harsh?""I was simply stating facts. If she finds that harsh, perhaps the issue lies with her," Brandon replied calmly.Jayden frowned, ready to retort, but Yale cut in before he could, "Alright, that's enough. Let's not ruin the mood. Today is about Brandon introducing his girlfriend to us—they're the main event."Jayden still looked upset but decided to hold his tongue.Michelle, on the verge of tears, glanced at Brandon with a pitiful expression. "I'm sorry, Brandon. I didn't mean to upset you and Valarie. Maybe I should leave so I don't ruin the atmosphere."She reached for her bag and moved as if to leave.Jay

"Oh, I believe you—no need to get upset," Valarie replied.Jayden remained silent, though his expression darkened. For some reason, her words only fueled his anger.Michelle, realizing she had been thoroughly ignored, turned to Jayden and said, "Jayden, you don't need to leave. I'll go by myself."She grabbed her bag and hurried out of the room. As she passed Brandon, she noticed he didn't even glance in her direction. Her face went pale, and she took a deep breath before walking quickly out of the private room.Jayden glared at Brandon. "I never thought you'd change so much just because of a relationship. All these years of brotherhood—do they really mean less to you than a girlfriend you've barely started dating?"Brandon had heard enough and let out a cold laugh. "Of course my girlfriend means more to me than you do. Who do you think you are? Are you going to marry me? Have kids with me?"My girlfriend is my priority. If you don't like her, then you don't like me. I suggest yo

"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
