Nyla frowned. “Uncle Damon, I’ve explained this many times. If you insist on thinking that way, I can’t stop you.” 

Damon smiled, his cold demeanor momentarily softening. It made it difficult to look away. “Nyla, is it really so hard to admit that you like me?” 

Under the intensity of his dark eyes, Nyla’s heart rate quickened. She clutched the hem of her hospital gown, feeling as if something was slipping out of her control. 

After a long pause, she pressed her lips together and spoke. “Uncle Damon, I’m your niece–in–law. If word got out about what you’re saying, do you know what the consequences would be?” 

“I can protect you,” Damon claimed. 

Nyla laughed lightly. “Clark said similar things before, but that didn’t stop him from cheating after we got 

married.‘ 

When a man wanted to win over a woman, he’d say anything. Whether he could follow through was another matter. 

Damon’s face darkened. “I’m not like him.” 

Nyla shook her head, looking at him seriously. “What’s the difference? You want me to admit I like you, and then what? Sneak around with you? How would I be any different from Clark?” 

Damon had helped her immensely, especially during her lowest moments. It would be a lie to say she wasn’t moved. But that didn’t mean she would abandon her principles and become someone she despised. 

“I can help you divorce Clark,” Damon offered. 

Nyla looked at him, realizing he didn’t understand her at all. 

It made sense–someone as privileged as he wouldn’t understand her position. 

“Uncle Damon, you’re just infatuated with me. You’ve never considered me an equal. If you did, you wouldn’t say such things so easily,” she countered. 

Damon’s expression grew grim, and the room seemed to grow colder. “Do you think everything I’ve done is just a whim?” 

Outside the hospital room, Cindy stood frozen in shock and anger. 

Damon had feelings for Nyla? How could he? She was his nephew’s wife! 

And Nyla, that wretch–she couldn’t even have children, Marrying into the Sumners had been a blessing, yet she wasn’t satisfied and dared to seduce her husband’s uncle. She should never have been allowed into the Sumners in the first place! 

Cindy felt an intense urge to burst in and confront them, but her hand froze on the doorknob. Considering the potential consequences of confronting Damon, she shivered. If she fell out with him, he might orchestrate Clark’s downfall.

Even Damon’s parents couldn’t control him. 

Sighing deeply, Cindy quickly left. 

Inside, Nyla maintained a calm demeanor as she looked at Damon. 

“If it’s not just a whim, let me ask you–if I divorce Clark, will you marry me?” she inquired. 

Damon frowned and remained silent. Marriage was something he had never seriously considered. 

Seeing his silence, Nyla smiled faintly. “Uncle Damon, I’m almost 30. I don’t have the luxury of time like an 18–year–old. If I divorce Clark, my next relationship will be with the intention of marriage.” 

She wouldn’t spend another eight years helping a man grow. 

With Damon’s status and pride, he would never marry a divorced woman. Besides, she had to deal with Cyrus. There was no future for her and Damon. 

After Damon left, Nyla no longer felt like going for a walk. She played on her phone for a while before going to sleep. 

Meanwhile, Cindy called Clark and asked him to come home after much consideration. 

“Mom, what did you want to talk about?” Clark asked, sitting across from her with a puzzled look.
