Chasing the Unexpected (Nyla)

Chapter 716

When Oliver leaned in earlier, Nyla’s instinct was to pull away. Her body couldn’t lie–she didn’t feel anything for him.

Realizing this, she was flooded with guilt.

Oliver had been good to her and had helped her a lot, but she couldn’t develop romantic feelings for him.

Gratitude was just that–gratitude. It couldn’t evolve into love.

After the movie, she planned to clarify things with Oliver. Since she had confirmed she didn’t have feelings for him, there was no point in dragging it out. The longer it continued, the more it would hurt Oliver.

After making up her mind, Nyla’s heart gradually settled. She felt less anxious, though the guilt still weighed heavily.

As they left the theater, Oliver turned to Damon with irritation. “Mr. Sumner, how much longer are you going to follow us?”

He had never seen anyone as shameless as Damon. Why was he crashing their date?

Damon didn’t seem the least bit embarrassed and raised an eyebrow. “Mr. Raynor, I have to go this way too to get my car.”

Oliver stepped back. “Fine, I’ll let you go first.”

Damon turned to Nyla, who had been quietly looking down. “The movie’s over, and your date is done, right? Shouldn’t you go pick up Buddy?”
