Chapter 317
Hearing the anxiety in Melody’s voice, Nyla couldn’t help but smile. “Don’t worry. If he really dislikes someone, he won’t even speak to them.”
Melody said, “He’s my first crush, so naturally, I’m a bit anxious. I hope I didn’t disturb you.”
“No, don’t worry. I’ll try to create opportunities for you two to be alone,” Nyla reassured her.
Melody was deeply touched. “Oh, Nyla, you’re the best!”
After exchanging a few more comforting words, Nyla ended the call. She set her phone down and reflected on how even someone as carefree as Melody could feel insecure about matters of the heart.
Upon thinking about her own recent breakup with Damon, Nyla’s expression grew somber. She took a deep breath, forced herself to move on, and prepared for bed.
The next morning, as Nyla walked into the office, she felt the eyes of her colleagues on her.
Once she reached her office, Melody hurried over, her tone filled with anger.” Nyla, did you break up with Mr. Sumner because of his ex?”
Nyla was taken aback. “How do you know about this?”
“I knew it!” Melody exclaimed indignantly. “Last night, someone took photos of him helping his ex into a car. Now everyone in the office is saying he dumped you!”
Nyla was silent for a moment before quietly uttering, “Oh.”
“You’re just going to accept this? Aren’t you angry about what they’re saying? It’s so infuriating!” Melody complained.
Seeing Melody’s upset expression, Nyla found it somewhat endearing. She couldn’t help but pinch her cheek, smiling. “It’s alright, don’t get too worked up.

Nyla shook her head. “There’s nothing to clarify. Whatever I say, they won’t believe it and will only criticize me more. It’s best to let it blow over.”

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....
