Rebecca smiled bitterly. "I've got less than three months left. There's no point in fighting over these things. After three months, I'll give Damon back to her." As soon as she finished speaking, Nathaniel grabbed her hand and said seriously, "Rebecca, don't talk like that. Damon has already invested in Caroline's research lab, and the drug is close to being developed. You're going to be okay!" Rebecca's gaze was wry. "The drug is still in the trial phase. No one can be sure if it will work, and there might be side effects." Seeing her so pessimistic, Nathaniel felt a pang in his heart, his eyes instantly filling with pain.

"Rebecca, you used to be so optimistic. Now you've becso negative, which isn't like you. You should be strong and resilient, never letting anything get you down. And I believe that drug will work!" he encouraged. Rebecca lowered her eyes and said softly, "I want to be strong, but I just can't. Besides... Damon doesn't loveanymore. He only agreed to get back together without of guilt. Even if I get better, he won't fall back in love with me. Surviving wouldn't mean much." Nathaniel's gaze turned cold. He looked at her and said slowly, "As long as you get better, I'll help you. I won't let anyone stand in the way of you and Damon being together!" By "anyone", he clearly meant Nyla.

A strange look flashed in Rebecca's eyes at Nathaniel's ruthless gaze. She asked softly, "Really?" "Really," Nathaniel assured.

If Nyla tried to stop Rebecca from being with Damon, he wouldn't hesitate to deal with her.

"Thank you, Nathaniel!" Rebecca threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly, her body trembling slightly with emotion.

Nathaniel stiffened. It took him a long tto finally raise his hand and gently pat her back. As he felt Rebecca's soft body pressed against him, his heart was filled with both sweetness and pain.

He wanted to hold her but couldn't. It was all because she was his best friend's girlfriend, and... she didn't love him.

On the way to the restaurant, Caroline couldn't help but ask Nyla, "Why was Ms. Austen acting so weird toward you earlier in the parking lot? Did you two have ssort of falling out?" Nyla's expression remained calm. "No. It's just that I work at Mr. Sumner's company now." Caroline's eyes widened in surprise. "You never mentioned that before. But Mr. Sumner is impressive. I heard he built Prospectus Technology from the ground up into the giant company it is today. And he's so handsome. It's a shhe has a girlfriend. Although... even if he didn't have a girlfriend, he wouldn't be someone we could reach." She continued talking to herself, unaware that Nyla's grip on the steering wheel had tightened subconsciously. It was so obvious to everyone else, yet Caroline was only now beginning to see it clearly. Stopping at a red light, Nyla turned to Caroline. "Caroline, let's not talk about irrelevant people. Tellmore about what your life has been like doing experiments these past few years. I'm more interested in that." QUMS

Caroline smiled. "Okay. My life these past few years hasn't been much different from when we were din m university It's just been a cycle of classes, meals, lab work, and sleep. But doing experiments is a lot harder than it was in university. Things go Wrong all the time..." Nyla listened intently, occasionally asking Caroline questions.

By the tthey finished lunch, it was already 2:00 p.m.

Caroline's flight back to Capitarnia was at 8:00 p.m., and ske stil needed to return to the hotel to pack. Nyla drove her straight there.

As Caroline exited the car, she couldn't hold back and asked the question she had been keeping in her heart, "Nyla, about what I mentioned before... Have you made up your mind?" Nyla nodded. "Yeah, I'm planning to go to grad school." X
