Damon’s expression was grim, and his voice was icy. “I suppose I was just being delusional.”

With that, he turned and left.

Clark glanced at Nyla, his eyes burning with anger. “What was that about the bar? Why wasn’t I aware?”

“Was there a need to tell you? Could you have gone back in time to protect me?” Nyla retorted.

Clark gritted his teeth. “Nyla, you know I don’t want you getting involved with my uncle!”

Just the thought of Nyla getting hurt because of Damon, and potentially ruining his own plans, made Clark’s anger boil over.

Nyla’s expression remained indifferent. “I don’t want you getting involved with Jordyn either, but you still sneak off to see her, don’t you?”

Clark’s face darkened, but he couldn’t refute her.

Seeing his face turn red, Nyla let out a small laugh. “Enough. Just go. I really don’t want to see you right now.”

Clark stared at her in silence for a long time, his eyes cold. “Don’t forget, with just one word from me, your father’s kidney transplant might not happen.”

Fury flashed in Nyla’s eyes. “Clark, is threatening me with my dad all you know how to do?”

Clark stepped forward and gripped her chin. “If it works, that’s all that matters. If you don’t behave, your father’s kidney will go to someone else next month.”

Nyla bit her lip hard, tasting blood but refusing to let go. She stared at Clark, his once–familiar features now seeming foreign.

Was this really the man who had promised to love her forever and never let her be sad?

She had believed in his promises, but now she realized how naive she had been. Maybe he had meant those promises, but people’s hearts changed.

“What do you want me to do? Apologize? Beg you?” she asked.

Clark sneered, his tone mocking. “Nyla, don’t act like I’ve wronged you. Can you honestly say you took that knife for my uncle without any personal feelings involved?”

From the way Nyla had looked at Damon earlier, Clark could tell she wasn’t as indifferent to him as she claimed. But she was his wife, meant to love only him. How could she love another man?

“Yes!” Nyla exclaimed.

Clark smiled dangerously and leaned in, speaking softly. “Nyla, I know you too well. When you lie, your right pinky finger twitches slightly. You probably don’t even realize it.”

Nyla’s eyes widened slightly, and she gritted her teeth as she glared at him. “What do you want?”

“It’s not about what I want. It’s about you not listening. need to show you the consequences of defying me,” Clark said.

With that, he released her and turned to leave. He had just reached the door when he heard hurried footsteps behind him.

The next moment, Nyla grabbed the hem of his suit jacket. “Clark, please don’t give my dad’s kidney to someone else. I’m begging you.”

Her voice, tinged with a sob, softened Clark’s heart a bit. Since she had discovered his affair, this was the first time she had spoken to him like this.

He turned to look at her, seeing the pleading in her eyes, and his breath caught slightly.

After a long moment, he finally spoke in a low voice. “This is your last chance. I hope you make the most of it.”
