Damon stared at her blankly. “Rebecca, you never used to play these petty games.”

Rebecca hesitated for a moment before slowly withdrawing her hand. She replied calmly, “You used to never refuse me.”

“I told you, I have a girlfriend now,” Damon stated firmly.

Rebecca looked up at him and asked, “Do you love her?”

Damon remained silent.

Rebecca felt a glimmer of confidence and said, “If you really loved her, you would admit it without hesitation.”

Damon frowned. “Rebecca, I didn’t admit it because I don’t want to hurt you.”

Rebecca’s smile faltered. After a moment, she softly said, “It’s fine if you love her. You’ll fall in love with me again.”

Damon wanted to tell her that he wouldn’t fall for her again–that for him, they were long over. But seeing the sadness on her face, he couldn’t bring himself to say it.

“Let’s go,” he said, turning toward the hospital exit.

Rebecca caught up with him, trying to walk beside him as she used to. He stepped back slightly.

“Rebecca, while I’ve agreed to take care of you during this time, I hope you can keep your distance,” Damon said, his tone cold.

The warmth that once filled his eyes was gone.

Rebecca looked at him with a bitter expression. ‘Have lost even the right to be close to you now?”

Damon didn’t answer, his gaze detached.

Finally, Rebecca forced a bitter smile. “Alright, I understand.”

After dropping Rebecca off at her place, Damon drove directly to the office.

As soon as he arrived on the top floor, Spencer approached him cautiously and said in a low voice, “Mr. Sumner, your father is here. He’s in your office.”

Damon’s gaze hardened as he replied coldly, “Got it.”

Upon entering the office, Damon found Richard sitting on the sofa..

Seeing Damon, Richard snorted. “Are you really planning to sever ties with us?”

Damon sat down across from him, his expression neutral. “You were the one who wanted to cut ties. I never said anything like that.”

‘Damn it! I said that in anger! Richard huffed.

Damon looked at him steadily. “So, what brings you here today?”

Richard took a deep breath, his tone softening slightly. Although Cyrus made some mistakes, he’s still your brother. Are you really not going to help him?”

“You should know that I’m with Nyla now. I haven’t helped her precisely because she’s dealing with my brother,” Damon replied.

Richard’s face darkened. “Are you really going to disregard your family just for a woman?!”

“She might be my wife in the future, and she will be my family too,” Damon countered.

“Are you out of your mind?! If you really marry her, everyone in the city will laugh at the Sumners!” Richard growled.

“I don’t care what others think. I won’t let their opinions influence the decisions I make,” Damon stated firmly.

Richard pointed at him, wanting to yell but replaceing himself at a loss for words. He had already exhausted all his arguments.

“You’re hopeless!” he cried in frustration before storming out.

Since Damon was so unreasonable, Richard decided to approach Nyla instead.

Nyla was somewhat surprised that Richard had come to see her. After all, their last encounter at the Sumner residence had ended badly, and she had assumed he wouldn’t lower himself to come to her.
