Nyla frowned. “Wren, you agreed to this yesterday. Why are you suddenly changing your mind?”

Nyla had arranged for them to go abroad with their safety in mind.

She wouldn’t let Cyrus off, and once Damon learned she had been using him, he wouldn’t protect her anymore. She wouldn’t have the energy to properly arrange for them by then.

Wren looked helpless. “It’s not that I don’t want to go abroad, but your father is worried about you. He refuses to go – overseas, no matter what.”

After a moment of silence, Nyla said firmly, “I’ll go to the hospital tonight and persuade him myself.”

Wren’s gaze was evasive. “Your father is still upset with you. It might be better to wait a few days. I’m worried that if you go tonight, you two might end up arguing again.”

“I need to go, even if it means arguing. Wren, I have work to do later, so I’ll head back to the office now.” With that, Nyla stood up and left.

When Damon found out that Nyla was going to the hospital that evening, he offered to accompany her.

Her first instinct was to refuse. Her father was already unhappy about her relationship with Damon, and bringing

Damon along would only provoke him further.

“Maybe you should wait a little longer?” Nyla suggested.

Damon looked displeased. “How long is a little longer?”

It was one thing for her to avoid him at the office, but now she didn’t want him to meet her family, which clearly showed she wasn’t planning for a future with him.

“My dad is still angry about us being together. We should at least wait until he’s not so upset,” Nyla tried.

“No. Since he already knows and is upset, he’ll think I’m not sincere and don’t genuinely want to be with you if I keep hiding, * Damon insisted.

Nyla sighed. Did she need to mention her father hoped that Damon would stay away?

Seeing Damon’s determined gaze, Nyla hesitated but

eventually nodded. “Alright, but be prepared for him to ask you to leave.”

As soon as Nyla and Damon entered the hospital room that evening, Harrison’s expression hardened. His demeanor was icy.

“Mr. Sumner, you’re not welcome here. Please leave!” he bellowed.

Nyla sighed inwardly–this was exactly what she had anticipated.

She turned to Damon, intending to ask him to wait outside, but he didn’t even glance at her. Instead, he addressed Harrison directly, “Mr. Jayston, I know you’re not fond of me, and I

understand that my relationship with Nyla angers you. But I am sincere about her.”

Harrison sneered. “Sincere? What’s sincerity worth from the Sumners? A few years ago, Clark said the same thing to me, and look what happened–he ended up cheating. Just leave! The Sumners are too good for Nyla!”

Nyla frowned, fearing that Harrison might say something to further provoke Damon. She was about to speak when. Harrison turned his cold gaze on her.

“You can leave too. I don’t want to see you until you’ve sorted out your relationship with him!” he scolded.

“Dad…” Nyla began.

Damon gently lowered his gaze to her and said softly, “I’d like to speak with your father alone. Please wait outside.”

“No!” Nyla protested.

She was concerned that Harrison might say even harsher things to Damon if she left.

Harrison looked at Damon with anger and disdain.

“Fine. Wren, take Nyla out. I want to hear what he has to say,” he ordered.

Wren hesitated for a moment before moving to Nyla’s side.

“Nyla, let’s step outside and wait,” she urged.
