"You're awake! Do you feel any discomfort?"

Nyla turned her head to see Damon, who looked worn out, standing by her bedside. She shook her head." Aside from some pain in my abdomen, I'm fine. How long was I out?"

"A full day," Damon replied.

Nyla frowned. "That long?"

"Yes, the stab wound damaged your spleen," Damon explained.

The more than ten hours Damon had spent waiting outside the operating room had been the most agonizing of his life, each second stretching into eternity.

Damon nodded, his voice icy. "Yes. He was the son of the owner of a rival company to Prospectus Technology. After their bankruptcy, he was pursued by creditors and chose to take revenge on me." He lowered his gaze, concealing the fierceness in his eyes. Samuel would never see the light of day again.
