"Even if he's my older brother, it doesn't change the fact that he kidnapped Nyla," Damon replied firmly.

Cindy's eyes flashed with anger due to Damon's unwavering defense of Nyla. "Damon, you're defending Nyla because you like her. She's just a woman-how can she be more important than your own brother?!"

"What?!" Marie turned sharply to look at Cindy, her face a mask of disbelief. "What nonsense are you spouting?! Have you lost your mind?!"

I didn't tell you before because I was worried you couldn't handle it. But seeing Damon now ignoring his brother's well-being for the sake of an outsider, I couldn't keep it to myself anymore!"

Marie took a step back, collapsing onto the sofa, her expression dazed.
