Chapter 928
After dinner, Nyla played with Mason for a while before asking Lydia to prepare him for bed. She stayed up in the
living room, engrossed in a book, waiting for Damon to return.
Ruby went to the police station, only to be told she couldn't see Sullivan. She tried asking about the situation but
couldn't gather any information.
Frustrated and helpless, she returned home.
That night, she tossed and turned, unable to find restful sleep.
The following morning, she woke up feeling heavy and groggy.
When Nyla saw her tired eyes and dark circles in the lab, she asked, "You didn't sleep well?"
"No," Ruby admitted.
"Because of Sullivan?" Nyla pressed.
Ruby hesitated before nodding. "I went to see him last night, but | couldn't. | don't even know what's going on."
After a brief pause, Nyla said, "Ruby, have you considered that you might be... a bit too concerned about him?"
"Nyla, he's savedtwice. How can | not care?" Ruby replied firmly.
"| get it. But this situation is out of your hands," Nyla said with a sigh.
She had asked Damon about it last night.

Sullivan had embezzled a significant portion of the company's drug research fund-an amount large enough to
guarantee a lengthy prison sentence. Ruby's face turned pale. "I understand. | just want to do what | can."
"There's only so much you can do," Nyla said gently. "You can send him what he needs later, but there's not
much else you'll be able to do." Ruby lowered her gaze and replied slowly, "Got it. Thanks, Nyla."
Following Sullivan's arrest, his team was left without a leader. Thus, the company temporarily reassigned his
responsibilities to Nyla, adding to her already heavy workload.
Although she didn't arrive hlater than Damon, her evenings often stretched past 8:00 p.m.
Understanding her increased burden, Damon expedited the hiring process for a new team leader for Sullivan's
group.
Within three days, a replacement was appointed a no-nonsense northern woman around Nyla's age, known for
her straightforward and efficient work style.
With the new leader in place, coordination between both teams improved significantly.
During lunch, Nyla couldn't hide her surprise when she learned of Damon's involvement. She had
thought of him as someone who et
strictly adhered to rules and
fairness, not one to intervene for her. At the stime, warmth filled her heart.

"You've been really busy," Nyla remarked as they walked to the door. "Buddy misses you. He says it's been ages
since he's seen you."
A flicker of guilt passed through Damon's eyes. He resolved to take the upcoming Sunday off to spend with her
and Mason.
"Soon, things will settle down," he said reassuringly.
"Mm. | just think you've been working too hard, and | haven't been much help," Nyla replied.
Damon stopped and turned to her,

Blushing under Damon's warm gaze, Nyla quickly looked away.
