Chasing the Unexpected (Nyla)

Chapter 616

As time passed, more and more people filled the amusement park.

Nyla held Mason’s hand tightly, preventing him from running around too much and avoiding collisions with others or the risk of getting knocked over.

Suddenly, Mason pointed excitedly at a ride not far away. “Mommy! I want to ride that!”

Following Mason’s gaze, Nyla felt troubled. He wanted to go on the swinging pendulum ride, but she had never liked high–altitude attractions.

She turned to Damon and said, “Mr. Sumner, I’m not really a fan of high–altitude rides. Why don’t you take Buddy on that one? I think there’s a version for kids.”

Damon stared at her, speechless.

Before he could respond, Mason dashed in front of him, hugging his leg and shaking it. “Daddy! I want to ride it! Please! Jasper said his dad took him on it several times when they went to the amusement park!”

Seeing the eager look in Mason’s eyes, Damon had no choice but to nod. “Fine, but I can only go once with you.”

“Great! Thanks, Daddy!” Mason exclaimed, grabbing Damon’s hand and dragging him toward the ride, completely oblivious to his father’s less–than–pleased expression.

Noticing Damon’s discomfort, Nyla spoke up. “Mr. Sumner, if you’re scared, you can always say no.”
