Uncle Damon, thank you for coming to see Nyla, but youâre usually busy, so thereâs no need for you to come in the future.â Clarkâs tone lacked politeness, and his gaze toward Damon was filled with hostility, practically spelling out âkeep your distance from Nylaâ
Damon looked at him calmly, showing no sign of being provoked.
Clark felt frustrated and ground his teeth in anger. Damonâs attitude made him feel like his punch had landed nowhere.
Damon ignored Clarkâs remark, turned to Valarie, and said, âMs. Weir, I have another meeting shortly. Iâll take my leave now.â
Valarie nodded. âAlright, Iâll see you out.â
âNo need,â Damon replied.
As Damon turned to leave, Clark followed and intercepted him in front of the elevator, staring at him with a stern expression. âUncle Damon, I hope you understand that Nyla is my wife and your nieceâinâlaw, not just some random woman. I hope you donât have any inappropriate thoughts.â
Damon glanced at Clark, his gaze devoid of warmth. âIf I were you, Iâd be more concerned about my wifeâs condition right now, not other trivial matters.â
Under Damonâs icy gaze, Clarkâs hands clenched into fists by his side. âOf course. I care about Nylaâs condition, but that doesnât mean I can neglect other things.â
Damon chuckled, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes. âIf I recall correctly, just a few days ago you were gallivanting around with your secretary. Instead of warning me, you might want to figure out how to keep it hidden from your grandfather.â
Before Clark could respond, the elevator doors opened, and Damon walked straight in without glancing back at him.
Even as the elevator descended, Clarkâs face remained grim.
He returned to the hospital room over ten minutes later.
Nyla had already fallen asleep, but her sleep seemed restless, her brows still furrowed.
Clark sat down across from Valarie and noticed the bouquet on the table, which seemed glaring. Suddenly, he stood up, grabbed the flowers, and walked out.
Seeing his actions, Valarie couldnât help but frown. Just as she was about to speak up, she thought about howâNyla had finally managed to fall asleep and reluctantly followed Clark out.
When she saw him tossing Damonâs flowers into the trash at the end of the hallway, she hurried over. Clark, are you insane? These are flowers from Nylaâs visitor. Who are you to throw them away?â
Clarkâs expression remained indifferent. âIâm her husband. I have the right to handle things for her.â
Valarie was almost amused by Clarkâs audacity. She used to think he had a good personality and truly loved Nyla. Today, she realized she had been blind.

âNever mind that Damon is your uncle. Even if a friend had sent those flowers to Nyla, you have no right to dispose of them.â
Clark looked coldly at Valarie. âMs. Weir, considering youâre Nylaâs close friend, I donât want to argue with you. But I have a bad temper. If you continue to meddle in our affairs, the Weirs might not fare well.â
Valarie sneered. âAre you threatening me?â
âNot a threat, just a reminder.â
âThanks for the reminder, Mr. Sumner. But since you know Iâm Nylaâs friend, I wonât stand by and watch her be mistreated.â
Clarkâs eyes grew cold as he was about to speak when his phone rang. Seeing Jordynâs name on the screen, he frowned.
Valarie also noticed the name, and a hint of disgust flashed in her eyes.
He went.
disgusting, juggling between his mistress and begging Nyla for forgiveness.
