As soon as Nyla finished speaking, Clark immediately agreed. His main priority was getting Nyla back by his side. Everything else could be dealt with later.

“Nyła, don’t worry. I promise I won’t overstep any boundaries. I swear.”

Nyla had heard these empty promises from him many times before and didn’t take them seriously.

Since she was going back, she was determined to protect herself. If Clark tried to force himself on her, she wouldn’t let him get away with it.

“Okay, I’m heading back now. Drive safe,” she said.

Over the next two days, Nyla rested and packed her things at home.

On the day she was set to move, Valarie suddenly came to visit.

Seeing Nyla unharmed, Valarie sighed in relief.

However, her expression soon turned troubled. “Nyla, why didn’t you tell me about being kidnapped?!”

Noticing Valarie’s disapproving look, Nyla explained, “I thought you were going through a rough time, and I didn’t want to add to your stress. Since I’m fine, I didn’t tell you.”

Valarie glared at her. “How could you keep something like this from me? If I didn’t know someone working at the police station, I might still be in the dark!”

‘I’m sorry. I should have told you. I promise I won’t hide anything like this again.”

‘Is there going to be a next time?” Valarie asked.

‘No, I mean I’ll inform you of any major issues immediately in the future,” Nyla clarified.

Valarie gave a reluctant huff at Nyla’s sincere expression. “That’s better. But are you really okay?”

“Yeah, just some minor injuries. Nothing serious.”

“That’s good.” Valarie then noticed the packed bags and boxes in the living room and frowned. “You’re moving?”

“Yes.” Nyla nodded and told Valarie about her plan to move back to the villa,

Valarie’s expression turned extremely grim. “Nyla, are you crazy? Clark cheated and got another woman pregnant, and you still want to go back? Are you out of your mind?”

Nyla understood Valarie’s disbelief. If someone had told her ten days ago that she would be moving back to Clark’s villa, she would have thought they were insane too.

“Valarie, I have reasons for moving back that I can’t share with you right now,” Nyla said,

The Harris Pharmaceuticals incident involved too many people. Investigating it could interfere with many interests and lead to unexpected dangers, so it would be better if fewer people knew.

“What could possibly make you go back to that jerk? Don’t tell me you still have feelings for him?!” Valarie

asked,

Nyla was about to deny it when she noticed a gray jacket flash by at the door. The words she was about to say changed direction.

“Actually, I still have some feelings for him. This move is conditional–if he’s willing to cut ties with his mistress, I-”

“Enough!” Valarie interrupted sternly. “I thought you were someone who could handle relationships with maturity. I was wrong. If you want to go back and suffer, I can’t stop you. But let me tell you: that jerk will never change!”

“Ms. Weir, are you talking about me?” Clark’s cold voice came from the doorway, his gaze icy as he

looked at Valarie.

Valarie sneered. “I didn’t expect you to be so self–aware. Yes, I’m talking about you, you scum!”

Clark’s expression darkened, and he exuded menace.

Nyla looked at him indifferently. “Since you’re here, you can start by helping me move these things downstairs.”
