Spencer looked at Nyl with a hint of guilt as he replied, "Regardless, I still hope you and Mr. Sumner can end up together."

Nyla smiled. "For us, staying out of each other's way is the best ending."

Spencer fell silent for a moment before ultimately leaving without saying anything.

Given Nyla's current wariness of Damon, it was better for him to say less. Speaking too much would only deepen their misunderstandings. If they were truly meant to be, they would find their way back to each other. Not long after Spencer left, Valarie arrived, bringing a bunch of toys for Mason.

Seeing Valarie loaded down with packages, Nyla was taken aback. "Did you really need to buy so much? This could keep Buddy entertained for a year!"

Valarie set her things down and shot Nyla a glance. "This is nothing. I have plenty more at home. I just couldn't carry everything today. I'll have the butler pack up and send them over tomorrow.

"I want to make sure Buddy gets all the toys he missed out on these past five years, as well as his birthday gifts!"

Nyla was speechless.

Just as she was about to say it wasn't necessary to spend so much, Valarie called out to Mason, "Buddy, come here! This is a toy car that Auntie Valarie bought for you. You can sit on it and drive around! Come see if you like it. If you don't, Auntie Valarie will buy you something else."

Mason didn't move. Instead, he looked up at Nyla, seeking her approval.
