However, Cyrus was Damonâs older brother. If Damon knew about this, he probably wouldnât help her. After thinking for a while without coming up with any clear answers, Nyla decided not to dwell on it any further and planned to find an opportunity to ask Damon directly.
The next morning, Nyla went to the hospital to visit Clark.
When she opened the door to the ward, she saw Jordyn sitting by Clarkâs bedside, feeding him chicken soup.
She paused and said indifferently, âLooks like Iâm interrupting.â
There was a hint of provocation in Jordynâs eyes, but she quickly set the bowl down, stood up, and said awkwardly, âNo, no. Since youâre here, Iâll leave now. Iâll come back to see Clark after youâre goneâ¦â
Before Nyla could respond, Clark spoke up. âJordyn, please step outside. I need to talk to her.â
Jordyn nodded. âAlright. Iâll be right outside. Call me if you need anything.
As she passed by Nyla, she whispered, âNyla, you wonât win against me.â
Nyla smiled. âDonât worry. Iâve never intended to compete with you.â
A man who cheated should be considered a treasure only by someone like her.
Once Jordyn left, the room fell into silence.
After a while, Clark spoke in a detached tone. âNyla, I know you donât want to be here and youâre busy with work. From now on, Jordyn can take care of me.â
Nyla frowned. If Clark hadnât been injured while saving her, she wouldnât have come. Besides, she had to come to take care of him to avoid how Cindy might twist things.
âIâm your wife, and you saved me this time.â
âHah.â Clark let out a light laugh, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. âEven if I saved you and lost my legs because of it, your attitude toward me hasnât changed, has it?â
âYou did save me, but that doesnât erase what you did by cheating. Iâve given you chances before, but you never handled things with Jordyn and her child properly. Instead, you let her continue to flaunt herself in front of me, didnât you?â Nyla retorted.
What was more important was whether Clark genuinely wanted to save her or if it was all part of his scheme Nyla hadnât figured that out yet.
If this was truly an accident, she would stay and take care of him. If it was a scheme, she wouldnât be so merciful.
Clark was rendered speechless by her words.
After a long pause, he finally said, âI donât expect you to stay with me now. I just hope youâll spare my father. But you wonât agree. You want a man in his 50s to go to prison. How can you be so heartless?â

His tone carried a hint of accusation.
Nyla sneered. âHeartless? Why donât you ask your father why he used such underhanded tactics against Harris Pharmaceuticals?â
âI know this is hard for you to accept right now, but we canât go back to the past. Compensation is what matters most for you and your father, I can keep looking for a kidney donation for him. Heâll recover and be discharged soon.
âThen, Iâll give him some money to start a new business. Maybe he can create another Harris
Pharmaceuticals. Handing over the evidence to the police will only lead to mutual destruction. You wonât get any compensation,â Clark coaxed.
âClark, youâve threatened me with the kidney donation so many times. In the end, you gave it to someone else. As for compensation, I donât need it!â Nyla snapped.
Clark looked at her with a hint of resignation as he said, âNyla, maybe Iâve protected you too well over the years, which is why youâre still so naive.â
