Chapter 286
Noticing Nyla’s cold attitude, Damon frowned and asked softly, “Did something happen?”
Nyla looked up, confused. “No, why do you ask?”
“You seem a bit down today,” he replied.
Nyla shook her head. “No, I’m fine. Sit down. I’ll change your bandages.”
Damon studied her for a moment but chose not to press further. “Okay.”
As Nyla finished changing his bandages and tidying up the used items, she said, “You can go now. I need to get back to work.”
Damon stared at her for several seconds before asking, “Did you get upset because I didn’t come home last night?”
Nyla was taken aback. “No, why would you think that?”
“Because you seem distant. I must have done something to upset you,” he suggested.
Nyla couldn’t meet Damon’s gentle gaze and looked away. “No, it might just be that I didn’t sleep well because of the bed change last night.”
“Really?” he asked.
“Yeah. You worked all night at the company and must be very busy. It’s not ideal for you to stay in the lab for too long. We

should keep a low profile, Nyla explained
Damon raised an eyebrow. “Why should we keep a low profile? We’re dating now”
“I got divorced from Clark a few days ago, and last time you were quite high profile at the company entrance. I don’t like being the center of attention,” Nyla said.
Damon wanted to point out that being with him would naturally attract attention, but seeing her serious expression, he agreed. “I can give you time to adjust, but I don’t want to wait too long.”
Hearing his assertive tone, Nyla hesitated before nodding. Alright, let’s try to keep our interactions at the company to a minimum. I won’t come to your office for lunch. I’ll eat in the cafeteria with Melody.”
Damon’s eyes narrowed, a dangerous glint flashing in them. Are you having second thoughts?”
Nyla hesitated before meeting his gaze. “How about three months?”

When will the new chapters come...
Author! Why does it always so mean? Like a new character will appear and at the end of the chapter, they're all antagonist who always intend to hurt Nyla. Is there any character who will protect her with no expectation in return of any thing?...
AUTHOR!!! NOTICE THIS PLEASE!!!! I hope that Nyla's heart can be softened with Damon alone like clear things up and make some intimate time with each other. And of course Damon talking to Rebecca will make Nyla go back to her status again. Just a short calmness and joy for Nyla and Damon....
