Clark stared at her coldly and asked, âWhy are you having someone watch Jordyn?â
Nyla paused before replying calmly, âIf I donât monitor her, how will I know when you meet up with her and lie to me again?â
Clark frowned but then suddenly relaxed. âNyla, you still care about me, donât you?â
Otherwise, she wouldnât have someone monitoring Jordyn to see when they met.
Nyla looked up at him, seeing the joy in his eyes. She thought he was truly confident, so much so that he believed she still liked him.
Nevertheless, his misunderstanding was useful, saving her a lot of trouble.
âI just donât want to be constantly cheated on, nor do I want to live in your lies,â she replied.
Her cold demeanor only convinced Clark further. He believed her recent actions were meant to get his attention and win him back from Jordyn.
He knew her well. If she didnât love him anymore, she wouldnât have returned. Getting close to Damon was just another way to make him jealous.
âNyla, I promise you, I have no feelings for Jordyn. The person I love is you. So you donât need to monitor her anymore. Once she has the baby, Iâll send her away immediately,â he promised.
How disgusting. How could he say that with a straight face?
Nyla looked at him with a trace of sarcasm in her eyes. âAnd what about her child?â
Clark hesitated before answering seriously, âWeâve been married for years and havenât had a child. If youâre willing, we can raise the child as our own.â
Hearing the implication that she couldnât have children, Nyla let out a cold laugh. âI have no interest in raising someone elseâs child. And do you think I could accept raising the child of my husband and his mistress?â
She wanted to knock some sense into Clark. Did he think that just because she moved back, she could tolerate everything he did?
Clarkâs face fell as he said, âIf you donât want to raise the child, I wonât force you. I wonât let the child appear in front of you.â
Nyla looked down, saying nothing. She couldnât completely cut ties with Clark yet.
As for Jordyn and her child, she didnât care. If she didnât care about Clark, why would she care about irrelevant people?
âDo as you wish. Iâve said it before. Once you deal with this matter, we can address our issues,â Nyla said.
Seeing the stubbornness in Nylaâs eyes, Clark sighed. He wished she were gentler like Jordyn and not so headstrong.
In their social circle, men of his status often had affairs. Why could other wives accept it, but not her? Hadnât he treated her well over the years?

Just because he had cheated, she had to make things so difficultâ¦
Even though Clark knew she cared about him, he felt exhausted. His busy workdays were already overwhelming, and coming home to Nylaâs cold attitude only added to his stress.
âTake care of yourself. I have work to do, so Iâll leave now. Iâve hired a nurse for you. If you need anything, just tell the nurse,â Clark said, then left.
After leaving the hospital, he drove straight to Jordynâs house.
When Jordyn opened the door and saw him, here it up with joy. âClarko, why are you here? Have you
had dinner? I was just about to eat. Want to join me?â
Jordynâs wholehearted affection immediately soothed Clarkâs frustration from dealing with Nyla. He smiled.
