Chapter 97

Author: Hello Spring
Nyla's steps faltered, and she glared at Clark. "What did you tell my dad?!"

Before Clark could respond, Harrison shouted, "You're questioning Clark? How could you betray him with his uncle?!"

Nyla's fingers trembled with rage. She couldn't believe Clark had the gall to twist the truth, and even more, she couldn't believe her father had fallen for it.

"Dad, do you really see me as that kind of person? You didn't even ask me, and you just believed Clark's side of the story, thinking I betrayed him?!" she questioned.

Nyla took a deep breath, deciding not to hide Clark's infidelity any longer. "Do you know it was he who—"

"Nyla, your dad was so upset earlier that he almost fainted. The doctor said he can't take any more stress. Do you really want to push him to the brink?"

Clark's loud voice drowned out Nyla's words.

She clenched her hands at her sides, her hatred for Clark reaching a peak. "If you know my dad can't take stress, why did you come here and tell him nonsense?!"

    Instantly, a red handprint appeared on Clark's face. His gaze toward Nyla was chilling. "How dare you hit me?!"Nyla met his furious eyes and said slowly, "Why wouldn't I? You're the one who cheated, yet you have the audacity to slander me in front of my dad. Don't you deserve to be hit?"As soon as she finished speaking, Clark grabbed her chin and pushed her against the wall, his eyes filled with anger."Nyla, it's your fault for not listening to me. If you had obeyed, I wouldn't have had to go to your father," he claimed.Nyla sneered. "If you dare approach my dad again, I'll expose your affair.""If you're not afraid of aggravating his condition, go ahead," Clark dared herClark's nonchalant tone fueled Nyla's rage, her hands clenched at her sides. "Clark, how did you become so despicable?!"Clark leaned closer. He could see the disgust and anger in Nyla's eyes and tightened his grip on her chin."Nyla, I just want you back by my side and to stay away from my uncle. You're t

    People were hiding in both the bedroom and by the door, indicating a premeditated attack.Nyla scrambled to her feet and ran toward the kitchen. Unfortunately, she only managed a few steps before someone grabbed her arm and slammed her against the wall."Who are you? Why are you— Mmph!"Before she could finish, one of her attackers pinned her down and pressed a cloth against her nose. A pungent smell filled her nostrils, and her vision began to blur.Soon, two masked men dragged a large suitcase out of Nyla's apartment.Since it was just past 8:00 p.m. and most people were home from work, there weren't many people around, so the men didn't attract much attention.They quickly reached the back gate of the building, where a nondescript van without a license plate was parked in the shadows.They loaded the suitcase into the trunk and drove off toward the outskirts of the city.…Spencer hurried into the CEO's office at Prospectus Technology with a document in hand."Mr. Sumner,

    "Even if you spill the beans, I don't have any money now. And if this gets out, you'll be going to jail too!" Kenneth responded.As the argument grew more intense, Nyla finally recognized the man who had kidnapped her—Mabel's father, Kenneth.She had only met him once. How did he know where she lived? How had he gotten into her home?This wasn't something a regular farm worker could come up with. Someone must have been behind it, and that person was obviously Lucia.Gradually, the argument outside died down, followed by the sound of a car starting.Soon, everything was silent.Nyla held her breath, not daring to make a sound.Suddenly, she felt the suitcase being moved and heard the wheels rolling on the ground. She realized she was being dragged somewhere, and her mind raced as she considered how to escape.Nyla cautiously unzipped the top of the suitcase a little, but the outside was pitch black except for the flashlight held by the person dragging her.Unable to see her sur

    "Who is this?"Nyla's expression changed as she recognized Jordyn's voice. "This is Nyla. I need to speak to Clark. Put him on the phone."A light laugh came from the other end. "Oh, Clarko? He's in the shower right now and probably can't take your call. If you need something, Ms. Jayston, just tell me, and I'll pass it on."Nyla bit her lip, her hands clenching at her sides. "Jordyn, I've been kidnapped—"Before she could finish, Jordyn cut her off, "Nyla, do you really think using such a pathetic lie will get Clark to come to you? If you want to see him so badly, come find him yourself. But he's with me and our baby tonight, so he doesn't have time for you."Nyla knew that this was a matter of life and death. She couldn't afford to hold a personal grudge. "I'm really kidnapped... Just tell him this—""If you're really kidnapped, then go ahead and die. Without you, my baby can be legitimized, and I can be with Clark." Jordyn's voice was filled with malice. She hung up immediatel

    Damon's expression darkened. "What happened?""Ms. Jayston's home is a mess. Her phone is on the couch, but she's gone," Spencer replied."Find out what happened immediately!" Damon ordered.…Within half an hour, Spencer discovered that Nyla had been kidnapped and quickly informed Damon.As the unmarked van drove into the city, it was abruptly stopped by a group of men in black.The driver, taken aback, opened the door to ask what was going on and was immediately kicked to the ground, kneeling in pain."Ah!" he screamed as his knee shattered, his face pale and covered in cold sweat.Spencer's expression was icy. "Where did you take her?"The man's eyes flickered with panic, and he shook his head quickly. "I don't know what you're talking about—"Spencer sneered. "You don't understand? Then we'll make you understand."At his command, the men in black pounced on the man, his screams filling the air.In less than five minutes, the man begged, "Stop! Stop! I'll talk... I'll ta

    If Nyla died, not only would Lucia refuse to pay him, but she might also turn on him and accuse him of murder.Kenneth had no power or influence, and with Mabel in jail, there was no way he could fight against Lucia. Keeping Nyla alive was more advantageous for him now."Are you crazy? Clark Sumner might already know we've kidnapped her. The longer we wait, the worse it gets for us!" Lucia yelled."As soon as I see the money, you can kill her. I won't care," he replied.Lucia was furious. "It's the middle of the night. How can I transfer money now? We'll have to wait until the bank opens in the morning!"Kenneth was just as useless as his daughter, Mabel, always messing things up. Even if she could transfer the money, she would have to use an overseas account to avoid detection."I don't care. I just want the money," he insisted.As they argued, a distant light grew closer.Lucia was appalled and ordered, "Hurry! Take her to the rooftop!"Realizing the urgency, Kenneth stopped

    As the knife pierced Nyla's hand, she let out a muffled groan, her face turning pale from the pain. Blood flowed from her wound, creating a gruesome sight.Lucia smirked and pulled the knife out, causing blood to spurt.Nyla bit her lip hard to stifle a scream.Lucia's smirk widened at Nyla's pained but restrained expression. "Didn't think you were this tough. Let's see how long you can last."Lucia raised the knife again, aiming for Nyla's heart.Just as the blade was about to reach its mark, a sharp pain shot through Lucia's wrist, and the knife clattered to the ground.Lucia stared in disbelief at the dart lodged in her wrist. She looked up and saw someone running toward her.Panicking, she bent down to retrieve the knife, but a powerful kick sent her flying before she could. She hit the ground hard and spat out blood before losing consciousness.Spencer quickly kicked the knife away and helped Nyla up. "Ms. Jayston, are you okay?"Nyla was shocked to see Spencer. She hadn'

    On the way to the hospital, Nyla kept glancing at Damon. She looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated.Damon turned to her, his voice deep. "What do you want to say?"Nyla bit her lip. "Mr. Sumner, I was just wondering… How did you know I was kidnapped? And how did you find me?""Spencer had some experimental data he wanted to ask you about. When he couldn't reach you on the phone, he went to your house and found you missing. So, we investigated," he explained casually, but Nyla felt a surge of gratitude."Mr. Sumner, I really appreciate it… If you and Mr. Hogg hadn't arrived in time, I might not have survived the night."Damon's expression remained indifferent. "Don't think too much about it. The most important thing for you now is to recover."Nyla fell silent and lowered her gaze, deciding she must find a way to repay Damon.As they neared the hospital, Nyla looked at him again. "Mr. Sumner, it's already very late. You can drop me off at the hospital entrance, an

    "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
