As soon as Damon stepped out of the car, someone else appeared at the entrance of the apartment building.

Damon's stride faltered, and his expression immediately hardened.

Gabriel positioned himself in front of Nyla.

Nyla's face, though free of makeup, remained strikingly beautiful, causing Gabriel's heart to stir as he gazed at her.

"Do you need something?" she asked, her tone frosty.

Sensing her coldness, Gabriel looked somewhat disappointed but managed a forced smile. "Nyla, I just returned from visiting your dad. He misses you. If you're free tomorrow night, let's go see him together." Nyla pressed her lips together. "Okay. If I'm free, I'll go."

Eager to avoid further interaction with Gabriel, she turned to leave.

Just as Gabriel was about to call after her, he felt a cold stare. Turning, he saw Damon approaching, his face stormy.

Nyla noticed Damon too. Her gaze flickered with confusion. He had publicly reconciled with Rebecca-why was he there?
