Chapter 602
The window stood open, and the light blue curtains swayed gently in the breeze.
By the window, a round table was covered with a beige tablecloth, and a vase held several gardenias. The flowers were clearly fresh–cut, with water droplets clinging to the petals and filling the air with their sweet fragrance.
“I really like this room, Lydia. Thank you!” Nyla said.
Seeing Nyla’s sincere smile, Lydia felt relieved. “I’m glad you like it, Ms. Kinsey. Mr. Mason’s room is right next door, in the third room. If you don’t need anything else, I’ll go prepare lunch now. Just call me or Maddie if you need something.”
Nyla nodded. “Okay.”
After Lydia left with Maddie, Nyla turned to Mason. “Buddy, do you want to take a nap?”
After learning that he could be discharged that morning, Mason had been so excited the night before that he had only gotten a few hours of sleep.
Now, his eyelids drooped, clearly revealing his sleep deprivation.
Mason held Nyla’s hand and looked up at her. “Mommy, can I sleep here with you?”
Despite Mason’s efforts to hide it, Nyla noticed the unease and fear in his eyes. She reached out to stroke his head and smiled. “Of course you can.”
After coaxing Mason to sleep, Nyla sat on the couch by the window, her gaze lowered as she seemed lost in thought.
In the kitchen, Maddie squeezed a handful of vegetables, her brow furrowed in dissatisfaction.
“Aunt Lydia, why are you being so nice to that Ms. Kinsey? I think she just wants to use Mr. Mason to climb the social ladder. We can’t let someone like her get her hooks into Mr. Sumner!”
Lydia, who was busy making soup, turned around and saw that Maddie had damaged a bunch of vegetables. She quickly took the basket from her hands.
“What does it matter what she thinks? Don’t forget, you’re just a maid. And honestly, I think Ms. Kinsey seems really nice–she’s gentle and easy to get along with,” Lydia defended Nyla.
Maddie snorted. “Of course she’s putting on a good show now that she just moved in. Just wait a few days–her true colors will show!
“Besides, Mr. Sumner already has a fiancee. I think Ms. Hulle is a thousand times better than her!”

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....
