Damon’s gaze turned icy as if he could kill with a stare. 

Phoebe felt a pang of guilt under his harsh scrutiny. However, as she gazed at her daughter in the ICU, uncertain of her fate, her anger reignited. 

“Mr. Sumner, I’m not afraid of you. After all, my daughter is in this state. What do I have to lose?” she stated boldly. 

Nyla stepped forward, looking up at Damon. “Uncle Damon, it’s natural for Mrs. Weir to be upset. She’s Valarie’s mother. I’m fine.” 

Jonathan sighed and turned to Nyla. “Ms. Jayston, you should go home for now. I’ll let you know if Valarie improves.” 

Although Nyla longed to stay, she realized her presence would only add to the tension. 

“Okay,” she agreed. 

Nyla took one last glance at Valarie through the glass, took a deep breath, and turned to leave. Instead of going home, she found a quiet bench in the hospital lobby. 

“Uncle Damon, you should go back now,” she suggested. 

Damon stood firm. “And you?”

“I’ll have someone watch over things and notify you immediately if Valarie wakes up. But staying here. won’t help. Come back with me,” Damon insisted. 

Nyla shook her head. “Uncle Damon, it’s okay. You’ve already done so much for me tonight. I-” Before she could finish, Damon unexpectedly bent down and scooped her up. 

Startled, Nyla instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck 

As he carried her toward the hospital exit, she protested, ‘Uncle Damon, put me down. Even if you take me back, I’ll just come back here later.” 

Damon remained silent, his expression grim as he strode forward. 

Nyla’s frustration grew as he wasn’t listening. “Uncle Damon, put me down! I said I don’t want to go back!” 

Damon looked down at her, his eyes cold. “Staying here is just wasting time. The most important thing now is to get some rest and figure out who did this to Valarie, not to uselessly wait around!” 

Nyla tightened her grip around his neck. After a few seconds, she spoke quietly. “Put me down. I can walk.

Damon was right. Besides waiting for Valarie to wake up, she needed to find out who was responsible for 

this.

Seeing that Nyla understood, Damon didn’t say anything more or put her down. He quickly walked to the curb and placed her into the car. 

“Drive,” he ordered.
