Chapter 750
Damon wore a wellâtailored dark suit, his tall figure exuding an air of authority,
Beside him stood a woman in an elegant creamâcolored dress, her long hair cascading down her shoulders with soft curls at the ends. She appeared gentle and alluring, wearing a small smile, her eyes bright and lively.
Damon had his head turned slightly to converse with the woman beside him, his gaze focused. She looked up at him, her expression warm.
There seemed to be a special understanding between them, making them appear very close.
Nyla stared blankly out the window at the couple, her heart feeling as if it were being tightly gripped. She struggled to calm herself, but her eyes couldnât seem to look away.
Ruby watched Nyla with concern and quietly asked, âAre you okay, Nyla?â
Nyla snapped back to reality and forced a smile. âIâm fine.â
What she didnât realize was just how strained that smile was.
She turned her gaze away, no longer looking at the couple outside, and began deleting the unfinished text message on her phone. She also deleted her chat with Damon.
While she could erase the chat, the image from earlier kept resurfacing in her mind.
Nyla bit her lip, filled with confusion and unease. Who was that woman? Why was she so close to Damon?
In the past, she had seen Damon interact with other women. He had always been indifferent, never giving anyone a chance to misinterpret his intentions.
But this woman was different.
Countless questions swirled in her mind, yet none had answers.
Nyla tried to push her chaotic thoughts aside, forcing herself not to dwell on them.
Despite her efforts, Sullivan seemed to see through her inner turmoil.
He raised an eyebrow and said, âNyla, youâre dating Mr. Sumner, Why donât you just call him and ask whatâs going on?â
Nylaâs hands clenched tightly as she forced another smile. âI trust him.â
Sullivan sighed, assuming the demeanor of someone with experience. âYou really donât understand men If you donât confront him about it now, heâll never admit anything later.
âHe might even turn it around on you, saying youâre being paranoid. If you donât ask him now, itâll put you at a disadvantage later on.â
âIs that from your personal experience, Sullivan?â Nylaâs tone dripped with sarcasm, and there was no hint of
a smile on her face.
Sullivanâs expression stiffened, and he instinctively glanced at Ruby.
Seeing her looking at him too, he quickly replied, âYouâre misunderstanding me. Iâm just offering some advice

from a manâs perspective. Why are you dragging me into this?â
âBut youâre a man too, arenât you? If you can give me this advice, does that mean youâd use this tactic against her when she sees you getting cozy with another woman?â Nyla pressed.
Sullivan frowned, struggling to suppress his anger, though his expression was clearly upset. âNyla, I know youâre upset about seeing Mr. Sumner with another woman, but itâs not right to take it out on me.â
Nyla smiled. âIâm not angry. I was just considering the possibility. So why are you the one getting upset? Did I hit a nerve?â
Sullivanâs fists clenched, fury simmering in his eyes.
The air grew tense, and Ruby sat uneasily, unsure of whom to comfort.
After a long silence, Sullivan suddenly laughed. âNyla, weâre here tonight for Rubyâs dinner invitation, so letâs not go back and forth. I donât want to make things awkward for her.â
