Chapter 1261
Nyla nodded. “I only just found out a few days ago.”
Alexander grinned. “That’s amazing–double the good news!”
He turned to Damon. “You’d better take good care of her when you’re back. Otherwise, you’ll have me to answer to.”
He was definitely going to visit them when the baby was born.
“I will. I promise,” Damon replied.

The next morning, they boarded the plane home.
After a long flight, they finally landed safely in Saintornia.
As soon as they got off the plane, the first thing Nyla wanted to do was see Mason.
When they arrived at the villa, simply standing at the front door made her eyes well up with tears.
Damon steadied her and spoke gently. “Nyla, you’re pregnant now. You shouldn’t get too emotional.”
She wiped her tears. “I know… I just missed Buddy so much.”
“Let’s go inside first,” Damon said.
The moment they stepped into the living room, they saw Mason sitting on the couch, watching TV with a blank expression.
Nyla stared at him, afraid it was all just a dream. A dream where she’d wake up back at Emerald’s estate, trapped again with no
way out.
Finally, she carefully called his name, “Mason…”
Mason’s head snapped around. Seeing her and Damon, he froze for a moment before scrambling off the couch and running toward them. “Daddy! Mommy!”
Nyla crouched down and caught him in her arms, holding him tightly. It wasn’t until she felt his small, warm body that she truly believed she was home.
She choked up. “Buddy, I’m so sorry. You must’ve been so scared while I was gone.” 1
Mason sniffled and wiped his eyes. “I wasn’t scared. Daddy told me you left because of me, so I had to grow up fast. That way, I can protect you next time instead of you protecting me.”
Nyla’s heart shattered.
She felt a deep ache for her son, but at the same time, she couldn’t help but glare at Damon for putting such thoughts in his head.
Damon rubbed his nose sheepishly. “It’s good for kids to develop resilience early.”
“You and I are going to have a talk later,” she said firmly.
After finally settling Mason down, Nyla marched into Damon’s study, ready to hold him accountable.
Seeing her stern expression, Damon immediately put down his documents and got up to pacify her. “Nyla, don’t be mad. I know
I messed up. I promise I won’t ever tell him things like that again. Can you forgive me this time?”
She pushed his hands away, clearly still upset. “Stay away from me! Your usual tricks won’t work this time!”
