Chasing the Unexpected

Was Nyle really just going to let Clark have his way it seemed than the only way to distance herself from him was to get a divorce

Before she could do that, Harrison’s kidney surgery needed to be complete Otherwise, Clark would continue to use the situation to threaten te freales solely on herself, she would have to wait in line for a kidney, not knowing how long t

might take

Nyla looked up at Clark and said coldly, if you want me to move back, fire”

Clark’s face lit up with hope, but her next words made his smile freeze

“I will move back in after my father’s kidney transplant is completed,” she said.

A heavy silence fell over the hallway.

Clark clenched his fists. If he hadn’t rashly given the kidney to Jordi’s father, he would have agreed immediately. With no new kidney donation available now, he couldn’t make that promise.

Seeing his silence, Nyla assumed he intended to use the kidney donation to keep threatening her and grew even colder in her gaze.

“If you’re not willing, then don’t come looking for me. I won’t agree to move back, though you could always just force me. After all, you’ve done that before, haven’t you?” she said.

“Nyla… I promise I won’t treat you like this again,” Clark said earnestly.

Nyla’s expression remained scornful. “You’ve made countless promises before, and it seems you’ve broken every single one.”

Clark’s face fell, and he opened his mouth but couldn’t find a defense.

After a tense moment, he said quietly, “Give me some time regarding the surgery.”

“Sure. Then don’t come looking for me during this time. I don’t want to see you.” Nyla made herself clear.

Seeing Nyla’s icy demeanor, Clark felt a pang of sorrow but ultimately conceded. ” Alright. I understand.”

Only after Clark took the elevator and te

open her door and go inside.

As soon as Clark got downstairs, he called Michael. “‘Find a kidney donation that matches my father–in–law within a month.”

After hanging up, Clark left with a dark expression.

Soon, it was Marie’s birthday.

As soon as Nyla got off work, she saw Clark’s car parked on the side of the road. She considered pretending not to see him, but he quickly got out of the car and approached her.

“Nyla, it’s Grandma’s birthday today. Come with me to her party,” Clark said.

Nyla didn’t have much affection for Marie, but she was an elder, and Nyla’s presence was expected. Not attending might lead to comments about the Jaystons‘ manners.

Have you prepared a birthday gift?” Nyla asked.

Clark nodded. “Yes. Grandma likes antiques. I bought an antique vase at an auction recently.”

“Let’s go then,” Nyla agreed and headed toward Clark’s car.

Noticing he hadn’t followed, she turned back, puzzled. “Why aren’t you coming?”

Clark snapped out of his reverie and hurried to her. “Oh, I was lost in thought. By the way, you should change into something more formal.”

He had assumed it would take some effort to persuade Nyla to attend the party, but it had gone surprisingly smoothly.

Nyla was dressed casually, and given that the party would be quite grand, formal attire was indeed more appropriate. Thus, she nodded. “Alright.”

In less than half an hour, Clark’s car stopped in front of the villa.

“I’ve had the service staff prepare a formal dress for you. It’s on your bed. Just change into it,” Clark informed her.

Nyla nodded and got out of the car, heading into the villa. Once inside the bedroom, she picked up the dress from the bed and tried it on, only to find it was very loose and clearly not her size.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

She glanced down at the dress, her expression turning cold.
