There was a brief pause on the other end before Cyrus cold voice out through the silence. “You’d better not fall into my hands, or I’ll make sure you wish you were dead!
He hung up immediately after that
Nyta took a deep breath to steady her anger and frustration, vowing that she would get another chance to catch him.
After changing her clothes, she grabbed her bag and headed out. As she approached the elevator, the doors slid open. She hesitated for a moment when she saw the two people inside.
Rebecca, dressed in a white dress, was clinging to Demon’s arm, her face bright with a smile.
When she saw Nyla, she subconsciously tightened her grip on Damon’s arm, and her smile faltered slightly.
“Ms. Jayston, what a coincidence!” Rebecca greeted, her voice tinged with forced cheerfulness.
Nyla considered pretending she hadn’t seen them but decided to acknowledge them with a curt nod. “Mm.”
Damon’s gaze briefly skimmed over Nyla’s face with indifference, as if she were a stranger, before he looked away.
Nyla didn’t meet his gaze but could feel the chill of his stare. She pursed her lips and stepped into the elevator, turning her back to them.
As the doors slowly closed, Rebecca’s voice, deliberately softened, reached Nyla’s ears. “Damon, what should we have for dinner? I’m
craving Thai food. How about you?
Damon’s voice was devoid of emotion. “Whatever you want.”
“Ugh, you haven’t changed. You always say whatever.” Rebecca whined.
Damon’s response seemed to be a quiet laugh. “Isn’t it better to go along with your wishes?”
“It’s not that bad… Fine. I’ll plan it then!” Rebecca chirped.

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....
