Chasing the Unexpected

Nyla paused, frowning. What could it be that she shouldn’t know about for now?

Just as she was about to lean in closer to listen, she heard footsteps coming from the office and quickly stepped back.

The office door opened, and Spencer walked out.

When he saw Nyla, a flicker of guilt crossed his eyes. “Ms. Kinsey, when did you get here?”

“I just arrived. Why?” Nyla answered, maintaining a calm expression, but her hands subconsciously tightened into fists.

What exactly was Damon hiding from her?

“Mr. Sumner is waiting for you inside. I’ll be getting back to work,” Spencer said as he hurriedly left, noticeably quickening his pace as he passed her.

Suppressing her growing suspicions, Nyla entered the office.

“You’re here! I had someone make your favorite pulled pork dish. Let me wash my hands, and then we can eat,‘ Damon said.

“Sounds good,” Nyla replied.

While Damon washed his hands, Nyla set the table.

It wasn’t until he sat down across from her that she casually asked, “I noticed Mr. Hogg left in a hurry. Is there something he needed to take care of?”

Damon paused, holding his utensils, before smiling. “Nothing much. Just a contract issue he had to handle.”

Nyla lowered her gaze, choosing not to respond, but her curiosity deepened.

After finishing lunch, Nyla didn’t linger in Damon’s office. Instead, she headed straight back to her own.

All afternoon, she wondered what Damon was trying to keep from her, but she couldn’t figure it out.

As quitting time approached, she received a message from Damon. He informed her that he had a social engagement that evening and that a driver would pick her up.

Nyla frowned. Ever since she and Mason moved to the villa, Damon hadn’t gone out for any evening events. Did tonight’s sudden engagement have anything to do with what happened at noon?

After a moment of thought, she told Damon not to send a driver. She wasn’t sure how late she would be working, so she would just take a taxi home after finishing.

Putting her phone away, she let out a small sigh. She felt a weight on her heart as if something was pressing down on her.

As soon as it was time to get off work, Nyla quickly packed her things and left.. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Fortunately, today’s experiment had gone smoothly, allowing her to wrap things up half an hour before the end of the workday. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have had time to follow Damon,

After hailing a cab downstairs, Nyla sat in the backseat, waiting for Damon to come out. About ten minutes later, she saw his car emerging from the underground parking.

She pointed to his car and told the driver, “Mister, follow that car.”

The driver glanced at her through the rearview mirror, starting to accelerate as he asked, “Are you going to catch him cheating?”

Nyla was taken aback for a moment but then nodded. “Yes, so make sure not to lose him. I don’t know when I’ll get another chance.”

“Got it! I’ve been driving cabs for over 30 years, and I promise I won’t lose him!” the driver replied enthusiastically.

The taxi followed the black Maybach through the city.

After an hour, the car ahead finally stopped in front of a villa.

A woman stepped out, wearing a light green dress. Her long, wavy hair was pinned up, exposing her slender neck. She looked like she had walked out of a painting.

She looked up at Damon, her eyes sparkling with smiles as she chatted with him.

Damon looked at her, his profile not as cold as usual. He wore a small smile, seemingly in a good mood.
