âYou just need to know that heâs safe. You donât need to ask anything else,â Damon said before hanging up.
When Nyla called again, he refused to answer. She fumed, nearly losing her mind.
Oliver grabbed her arm, worried she would act impulsively. âNyla, calm down. At least we know Buddy is safe. Iâll find out where Damon is hiding him, and we will definitely locate him. Donât worry.â
With Oliverâs gentle reassurance, Nyla finally began to calm down.
âOkay, I understand. Thank you for your help, Oliver,â she said.
âWhatâs going on with you and Buddy is my business too. Youâve been through a lot. Sit down and rest for a bit,â Oliver advised.
âAlright,â Nyla replied.
Oliver guided Nyla to the couch, relieved to see her calmer than before. He immediately called his subordinates to find out Damonâs whereabouts.
Nyla took a deep breath to suppress her impulse to find Damon and looked up at Oliver. âItâs getting late. You should head home now.â
âItâs fine. Iâll stay with you a little longer,â Oliver said.
The living room fell into silence.
Oliver wanted to say something comforting, but he knew that unless they found Mason soon, any reassurance would be meaningless.
Over an hour later, Oliverâs phone rang.
Nylaâs gaze snapped to his phone, her eyes filled with anticipation.
Oliver answered the call, and his subordinateâs serious voice came through. âMr. Raynor, weâve tracked Damon to Saintornia but havenât located Buddy yet.â
âI understand. Keep looking,â Oliver instructed.
After hanging up, he hesitated before looking at Nyla.

Nyla bit her lip. âI heard everything, Oliver⦠Iâm planning to go to Saintornia.â
Over the years, Nyla had never mentioned Saintornia. Whenever conferences or business trips to that area arose, she always declined to attend.
Oliver knew she had been avoiding that place since the incident five years ago.
As time passed, the memory had become an old scar that she could forget most days, but it still throbbed painfully when touched.
Oliver looked at her, his expression serious. âAre you sure? Once you go to Saintornia, your peaceful life

will be disrupted.â
Nyla forced a smile. âThe moment Damon learned about Buddy, my life was already thrown into chaos.â
She had been running away five years ago, but now she was ready to face everything headâon.
Seeing the determination in her eyes, Oliver nodded. âAlright, Iâll go with you.â
âNo, I can handle it myself,â Nyla insisted.
Oliver frowned. âNyla, youâ¦â
Nyla fixed him with a steady gaze and replied firmly, âOliver, trust me. If I really canât handle it, Iâll contact you immediately.â
Oliver had just returned to the Raynor Group, and she didnât want him to be affected by her and Masonâs situation. She understood better than anyone the effort he had put in over the past few years and how much he wanted to gain Hughâs approval.
Reluctantly, Oliver nodded. âIf anything happens, you have to call me right away.â
âOkay,â Nyla promised.
After booking her a morning flight to Saintornia, Oliver intended to drive her to the airport but was met with her refusal.
âYou have work at eight. Iâll just take a taxi,â she said.
âThen, Iâll send my driver with you. Donât refuse me again, or Iâll take you to the airport myself,â Oliver warned, giving her an ultimatum.
