Chapter 246
When Damon arrived at the hospital an hour later, he found Nyla sitting in a chair outside the emergency room, her clothes stained with blood. She exuded a grim, lifeless aura.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
He frowned and quickly approached her, crouching down.
Upon seeing her pale face, his gaze darkened. "Are you hurt?"
Hearing Damon's voice, Nyla seemed to snap back to reality. Her red-rimmed eyes slowly focused. When she realized it was Damon, she suddenly reached out and hugged him, her voice trembling. "U-Uncle Damon, Clark had an accident trying to save me... He's lost a lot of blood..." she stuttered.
Noticing her unstable emotions, Damon gently patted her back and spoke softly. "It's going to be alright. Don't worry. He'll be fine."
"What are you doing here?!" A sharp voice came from around the corner.
Nyla instinctively pulled away from Damon and turned to see Cindy approaching them angrily, followed by Cyrus, who also looked grim.
Cindy's gaze was like a knife, filled with murderous rage. Her son was in the emergency room fighting for his life, and there Nyla was, appearing to seek comfort from another man!
Cindy reached out to slap Nyla, but her hand was caught by a strong grip.
"This is a hospital. Please show some decency," Damon warned.
Cindy sneered and shook off Damon's hand, her eyes blazing with anger. "Damon, how dare you lecture me? You're the one lacking decency!
"Don't forget, Nyla is your niece-in-law. The man inside is her husband. He had an accident trying to save her, and here she is, already in your arms. What a shameless woman!"
Damon's face darkened, his aura becoming menacing. "If you can't keep your comments in check, don't blame me for being rude."
"Oh, really? Let's see how rude you can be! You're making such a disgusting scene in public and don't want anyone to comment?" Cindy retorted.

Before she could finish, Cyrus coldly interrupted, "Enough! The most important thing right now is to wait for Clark's surgery to be over We can discuss the rest later."
With that, Cyrus' icy gaze fell on Nyla, his eyes flashing with hostility.
Cindy, already seething with anger, turned to Cyrus. "Why wait? This woman has already made a fool of your son. How can you stand it? Cyrus, are you still a man?"
Nyla lowered her gaze and remained silent. She didn't want to argue with Cindy at this moment. Even if she explained, Cindy wouldn't believe her.
Moreover, she had developed feelings for Damon and couldn't claim to be entirely innocent.
Cindy's accusations turned Cyrus' face ashen. He slapped her hard. "If you can't see what's important right now get out of here! Stop making a scene while Clark is in surgery!"
Cindy covered her face with her hand, staring at Cyrus in disbelief Her eyes were filled with disappointment and resentment. "Cyrus, I must have been blind to marry you!"
Cyrus looked at her, his eyes devoid of warmth.
Seeing that he wouldn't support her, Cindy shot a venomous look at Nyla and said through gritted teeth, "If anything happens to Clark, I will never forgive you!" Damon stepped in front of Nyla, his gaze icy. "Then it depends on whether you have the ability to do anything to her."
Facing Damon's sharp gaze, Cindy scoffed and fell silent.
