If Clark had known Jordyn would be so troublesome, he would never have let himself get involved with her in the first place. Hanging up, he glanced upstairs and took a deep breath before briskly walking towar As Damon approached his car at the villa entrance, he noticed Spencer standing nearby with an odd expression.

"What's wrong?"

Spencer hesitated for a moment before replying, "Mr. Sumner, you better see for yourself..."

Damon opened the car door with a slight frown. Inside, he found Nyla looking disheveled and staring at him nervously. Anyone seeing this scene without knowing the context would likely assume he had done so Damon slammed the car door shut and demanded coldly, "What's going on?"

"L... I don't know. Ms. Jayston just limped out of the villa and said she wanted you to give her a ride..."

"And you let her get in?"

Damon's irritation was palpable. He had come here today to warn Clark as compensation for the night he almost lay his hand on Nyla. From the moment he stepped out of the villa, he wanted nothing more to d Sensing Damon's displeasure, Spencer involuntarily shrank back and lowered his head. "Mr. Sumner, I'm sorry. It won't happen again."

If it weren't for the fact that Nyla was Damon's niece-in-law, he wouldn't have dared to let her into the car.

"If there's a next time, you'll be mining in the desert."

"What should we do now? Should I ask Ms. Jayston to get out?"

Damon sneered. "If someone sees her coming out of my car in disarray, I won't be able to explain myself."

Spencer hung his head even lower. He should have locked the car when he saw Nyla.

"Alright, get in the car first."

Damon took off his suit jacket and threw it onto Nyla.

Initially, Nyla feared that Damon would kick her out of the car. They had only met a few times, and she didn't know his temper.

As she pondered how she would escape if Damon intended to kick her out, the car door suddenly swung open, and a coat flew toward her.

In an instant, it blocked out all light, but Damon's voice echoed clearly.

"Put it on."
