Chasing the Unexpected (Nyla)

Chapter 286

Noticing Nyla’s cold attitude, Damon frowned and asked softly, “Did something happen?”

Nyla looked up, confused. “No, why do you ask?”

“You seem a bit down today,” he replied.

Nyla shook her head. “No, I’m fine. Sit down. I’ll change your bandages.”

Damon studied her for a moment but chose not to press further. “Okay.”

As Nyla finished changing his bandages and tidying up the used items, she said, “You can go now. I need to get back to work.”

Damon stared at her for several seconds before asking, “Did you get upset because I didn’t come home last night?”

Nyla was taken aback. “No, why would you think that?”

“Because you seem distant. I must have done something to upset you,” he suggested.

Nyla couldn’t meet Damon’s gentle gaze and looked away. “No, it might just be that I didn’t sleep well because of the bed change last night.”

“Really?” he asked.
