Chapter 745
“Okay, | understand,” Nyla replied.
She lowered her eyes, suddenly recalling that the soup was cooking in the kitchen. When she looked up to ask
Damon if she could have snow, she found herself lost in his tender gaze instead.
The living room fell silent.
She could almost hear her heart racing. After a few seconds of staring, she finally snapped back to reality and
quickly averted her gaze.
Right away, Damon's deep voice broke the silence. “What is it?”
Nyla bit her lip and spoke softly. “I just wanted to ask if | can still have soup tonight?”
“You can, but try to avoid the areas that got burned,” Damon answered.
“Got it. I'm fine now,” Nyla said.
“Alright, Ill check again in the morning. If there's still swelling, we'll apply the oral gel again,” Damon replied.
As soon as he finished speaking, Nyla recalled the earlier moment when he applied the oral gel for her, and her
cheeks flushed.
She really didn’t want to go through that again, so she said, “Just givethe oral gel. | can apply it in front of
the mirror tomorrow.”
“It’s no trouble at all. | don’t have anything planned for tomorrow anyway,” Damon dismissed.
Nyla felt speechless-that wasn’t what she meant!

Since he wouldn't give it to her, she had no choice.
“I'll go check on the soup...” she muttered.
Without waiting for his response, she hurried away, feeling as if she were escaping.
Damon watched her retreating figure, his expression thoughtful and his gaze obscure.
When Nyla finished cooking the soup, Damon was already in the study, dealing with work.
She poured herself a bowl and set it aside to cool. Just as she picked up her phone, she noticed a message from
Ruby and immediately called back.
The call connected quickly, and Ruby’s somewhat hoarse voice cthrough. “Nyla...”
“Ruby, what's wrong? Did something happen? How much do you need?” Nyla asked.
Upon hearing Nyla’s genuine concern, Ruby’s eyes reddened as she struggled to hold back tears. “It’s nothing. |
just don’t have enough money from this month's salary. If it's okay, I'd like to borrow 500 dollars.
“Sure, I'll transfer it to you right away. If that’s not enough, letknow,” Nyla assured her.

Damor’s expression darkened. His instincts told him this matter was linked to Gabriel, and he trusted that feeling
Got it,” he replied.
After a moment of silence on the other end, Spencer's cautious voice returned. ‘So... should we continue the
investigation?”
“File a report. We need to ensure Howard doesn’t have any chance to appear in front of Nyla again. Also, keep an
