Chapter 287 

“I’ll try to have more self–control in the future, but don’t blame me if I can’t hold back,” Damon said. 

Nyla was speechless. Was there any difference between what he said and saying nothing at all? 

Seeing Nyla’s slightly darkened expression, Damon realized that staying any longer might push her over the edge. 

He quickly added, “I have a meeting later. Send me a message when you finish work tonight, and we can go home together.” 

After Damon left, Nyla went straight to the lab. 

Melody smiled slyly when she saw her. “Nyla, guess what I saw when I went to your office just now?” 

“What?” Nyla had a bad premonition–she hoped Melody hadn’t just seen Damon kissing her. 

As expected, Melody’s next words confirmed her suspicion. 

Nyla wished for the floor to swallow her whole. She cleared her throat to hide her embarrassment. “Alright. Let’s get back to the experiment, or we’ll be working overtime today.” 

“Okay, hahaha… Nyla, I didn’t expect to see you shy,” Melody teased. 

The morning passed quickly. 

The experiment required continuous monitoring for seven

hours, so Nyla and Melody took turns going to the cafeteria for lunch. 

Nyla asked Melody to go first, saying she’d switch with her. after finishing her meal. 

Soon after Melody left, there was a knock on the lab door. 

Nyla turned to see Erin standing there and frowned slightly.. 

“Ms. Hulle, what’s up?” Nyla asked. 

Erin’s smile was cold, her eyes full of disdain as she looked at Nyla. “I didn’t expect you to be so shameless as to get involved with your ex–husband’s uncle!” 

Nyla’s expression grew cold. “What does who I’m with have to do with you? Is it worth your time to come here just to complain?” 

Erin’s face flushed with anger. “Damon is just playing around with you. In the end, he’ll marry someone who matches his family background. I’m looking forward to seeing you make a fool of yourself!” 

She couldn’t accept the thought of losing to a divorced woman. 

Nyla smiled slightly and replied, “Whether I become a joke or not is uncertain, but your visit here to say such nonsense only. makes you look like one.” 

“Don’t get too smug. We’ll see about that!” With that, Erin turned and left. 

Erin was determined to win Damon and wouldn’t give up. She

also understood that, given Damon’s status, he might have other women even after marriage. No matter what, she would be his wife. 

As for Nyla, she wouldn’t always be young and beautiful. There would always be younger, more beautiful women. Once Damon grew tired of her, he could easily find a replacement. 

Realizing this, Erin regretted confronting Nyla. It was beneath her dignity. 

Just as she reached the elevator, the doors opened. 

Seeing Spencer inside, she smiled. “Mr. Hogg, what a coincidence.” 

Spencer looked at her with a neutral expression. “Ms. Hulle, it’s actually not a coincidence. I’m here to see you. Mr. Sumner would like to meet with you.” 

Erin’s face lit up with delight. She quickly entered the elevator. Really? That’s great. I have the contract ready and can sign it at any time.” 

Spencer’s expression remained unchanged. “You’ll discuss the details with Mr. Sumner.” 

“Alright!” Joyfully, Erin began planning how she would find opportunities to interact with Damon. Over time, he would surely see that she was a better match for him than Nyla.
