Damon’s gaze darkened. “Not yet. The hotel’s surveillance was damaged, so I had Spencer check the cameras around the hotel. The most important thing for you tonight is to get some rest. We can handle everything else tomorrow morning.” 

“Got it. Thanks, Uncle Damon,” Nyla said gratefully.. 

“There’s no need to thank me. Although it might not be the best time to say this, happy birthday,” Damon wished her. 

Nyla was momentarily taken aback, then replied softly, Thank you.” 

If Valarie didn’t wake up, she might never enjoy her birthdays again. 

“Get some rest,” Damon urged. 

“Okay,” Nyla agreed. 

She went to her room, decorated in the same black, white, and gray scheme as the living room. A faint, pleasant fragrance lingered in the air–one she couldn’t identify but found quite nice. 

After taking a shower, she lay down, expecting to have trouble sleeping, but fatigue soon overcame her, and she drifted into a deep sleep. 

Unbeknownst to her, shortly after she fell asleep, a maid quietly entered the room, took a box of ointment from the bedside table, and left. 

The fragrance in the air diminished significantly after the maid departed. 

In the study downstairs, Damon was reviewing documents when the maid knocked and entered. “Mr. Sumner, Ms. Jayston is already asleep.” 

Damon nodded. “Alright. You should get some rest too.” 

“Yes, sir. Don’t stay up too late. Work is endless,” the maid reminded him, 

“I know,” Damon replied. 

Seeing his focus still on the documents, the maid sighed and left. 

The next morning, Nyla woke up to find it was already past 8:00 a.m. She was surprised because she 

usually had trouble sleeping away from home, yet she had slept so soundly there. 

After getting ready, she went downstairs where breakfast was already set out on the table. 

Damon was sitting at the table, reading the news. 

“Good morning. Uncle Damon,” Nyla greeted. 

“Good morning. How did you sleep last night?” Damon asked, setting his tablet aside and looking at her. 

“Pretty well,” she replied. 

Damon nodded and resumed eating breakfast.

Nyla wanted to ask about Spencer’s progress but decided it was best not to interrupt Damon while he was eating. She waited until breakfast was over. 

“Uncle Damon, have there been any updates on Valarie’s situation?” she asked. 

“Still under investigation. There hasn’t been much progress,” Damon answered. 

Disappointment flashed in Nyla’s eyes. “Okay.” 

“I’ll have HR give you a few days off. Come back to work once you’ve had a chance to recover,” Damon said.

Nyla shook her head. “No need. I can return to 

Damon looked at her. “Aren’t you going to the hospital anymore?” 

“I wouldn’t be of much help at the hospital, I’ll visit Valarie after work each day,” Nyla replied. 

Seeing her calm demeanor and recognizing that staying occupied at work might be better for her than dwelling on the situation, Damon nodded. “Alright.”

n the way to Prospectus Technology, Nyla asked Damon to drop her off a couple of blocks from the company so she could walk the rest of the way.
