Chapter 1384
Andre's voice was cold. "What are you trying to say?"
"I know you hate me. I don't have much time left, so I'm not afraid of your revenge. But my daughter is innocent. I hope you'll
stay away from her and stop deceiving her. You're only with her to get back at me, aren't you?" Emerald asked.
Andre let out a mocking laugh. "Even if you're dying, I won't let you off so easily."
Compassion had long since abandoned him—the day his family fell and his sister lost her life.
"Fine. If you want to expose me to the media or whatever else, I won't resist. Just stay away from my daughter," Emerald
warned.
Andre shook his head. "No, I'll continue seeing Delia. Before you die, I want you to experience the pain I've endured all these
years. So just sit back and watch, then leave this world with guilt and regret."
With that, he turned and walked away.
Emerald took a deep breath, her eyes turning cold.
She had planned to leave Andre alone, but since he refused to listen, she saw no reason to spare him any longer.
A chilling glint flashed in her eyes.
...
Over the next month, Nyla kept to herself.
Aside from picking up and dropping off Mason at school, she stayed home, either learning flower arranging or reading about
pharmaceutical developments. She never mentioned Emerald before Damon, nor did she ask about her condition.
Damon had tried to bring it up several times, but Nyla would always change the subject.
He assumed there was still plenty of time to talk to her about it and persuade her to see Emerald so she wouldn't have any
regrets.
However, a month later, he received an unexpected call from Alexander. Alexander informed him that Emerald had been
arrested for attempted murder. Damon was stunned. "Isn't she sick? How could she suddenly be arrested?" The sound of wind
rustled through the phone-Alexander was clearly walking outside.
"I don't have all the details yet. My lawyer is looking into it. You know the person pressing charges, too. It's Andre," Alexander
said.
Damon fell silent for a moment before replying, "I see. I've worked with him before, but we lost contact after Nyla and I moved
"If you don't mind, could you reach out to him and ask him to drop the charges? My aunt's health is deteriorating. If she stays in
prison, it will only worsen," Alexander O requested.
"I'm afraid I can't do that," Damon replied.
If he were in Andre's shoes, knowing that Emerald was responsible for his family's downfall and his sister's death, he wouldn't
forgive her either.
He had no right to ask Andre to let Emerald go. She had brought this on herself.
Alexander was quiet for a moment before asking, "Do you know something?"
"You should look into Andre's sister's death. It's connected to Ms. Kinsey," Damon hinted.
"Got it. Thanks for telling me," Alexander replied.
After ending the call, Damon set down his phone and headed upstairs to find Nyla.
When he entered the bedroom, he found her still asleep. Quietly, he walked to the bedside and sat down, gazing at her peaceful
face.
When Emerald had taken Nyla away, he thought he'd never see her again. That was why he had no fondness for Emerald and
never wanted anything to do with her.
No matter what, though, she was still Nyla's biological mother. Even though Nyla had said she never wanted to see Emerald
again, today's news was something she needed to know.
Whether Nyla chose to go to Meristate was up to her.
