Chapter 692 Nyla lowered her gaze, complicated emotions crossing her eyes.
The better Oliver was to her, the guiltier she felt. After all, she didn't reciprocate his feelings in the sway. Sometimes, she felt quite bad for him.
"Oliver, you don't have to be so good to me..../ puts pressure on me," she said honestly.
Oliver tightened his grip on the steering wheel, a hint of wryness in his eyes. "Nyla, you can't actually develop feelings forbeyond friendship, can you?" Nyla was silent for a few seconds before slowly replying, "I don't know... But I think I could. Just givea little more time." The car fell silent until they reached her building. Neither spoke.

"Nyla, feelings can't be rushed. You don't have to force yourself. If one day you realize you can't like me, just tell me. I'd rather you be free and happy than feel pressured to stay withbecause of what I've done over these five years," he said seriously. "To me, your happiness is what matters most." A wave of emotion washed over Nyla, making her nose tingle. "But that doesn't seem fair to you." Oliver smiled softly. "There's no fairness or unfairness here. Everything I've done for you and Buddy over these five years was voluntary. You've givenfeedback too. I've enjoyed these five years. Don't let that tbind you and cloud your judgment." He loved Nyla, so he was willing to do anything for her. If she could return those feelings, it would be a blessing. If not, he wouldn't complain.
Life was too short-just meeting each other was already a blessing.
The car fell silent again.
After what felt like an eternity, Nyla finally spoke. "Okay, I understand. I'll think about it." "Great, I'll hold you to that," Oliver said.
Unbuckling his seatbelt, he got out and opened the back door. He carefully picked up the sleeping Mason before shutting the door and walking with Nyla into the building.
After ensuring they were safely inside, he left.
Nyla was the only one left in the living room. She sank onto the sofa and began to reflect on her feelings for Oliver.
If it weren't for him, she wouldn't be who she was today. Thus, she felt genuinely grateful. They had been through a lot in these five years, and he was important to her.
However, love....

After thinking for a long time, Nyla couldn't reach a conclusion and decided to message Valarie. Chapter 692
When Valarie saw her message, she couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. Nyla was actually asking her how to determine if she had feelings for someone After pondering for a moment, Valarie called Nyla directly.
"It's easy to figure out. Just ask yourself if you want to kiss him, if you want to sleep with him, and if you feel flustered during casual physical contact," she said. Nyla thought about it.
During a few instances of physical contact with Oliver, she had felt a bit flustered. When it cto kissing him... she had never considered it.
"Okay, I get it," she replied.
Valarie asked, "Why are you suddenly askingthis? Aren't you and Oliver together? Can't you tell if you like him or not?"
Nyla lowered her gaze, feeling a bit gloomy as she answered, "I think him but Kyeenever really like him considered the kissing and sleeping part."
