Chasing the Unexpected CHAPTER 195
Damon’s gaze darkened. “Not yet. The hotel’s surveince was damaged, so I had Spencer check the cameras around the hotel. The most important thing for you tonight is to get some rest. We can handle everything else tomorrow <b>morning</b><b>.</b><b>” </b>
“Got it. Thanks, Uncle Damon,” N said gratefully..
“There’s no need to thank me. Although it might not be the <b>best </b>time to say this, happy birthday,” Damon wished her.
N was momentarily taken aback, then replied softly, Thank you.”
If Vrie didn’t wake up, she might never enjoy her birthdays again.
“Get some rest,” Damon urged.
“Okay,” N agreed.
She went to her room, decorated in the same ck, white, and gray scheme as the living room. A faint, pleasant fragrance lingered in the air–one she couldn’t identify but found quite nice.
After taking a shower, shey down, expecting to have trouble sleeping, but fatigue soon overcame her, and she drifted into a deep sleep.
Unbeknownst to her, shortly after she fell asleep, a maid quietly entered the room, took a box of ointment <b>from </b>the bedside table, and left.
The fragrance in the air diminished significantly after the maid departed.
In the study downstairs, Damon was reviewing documents when the maid knocked and entered. “Mr. Sumner, Ms. Jayston is already asleep.”
Damon nodded. “Alright. You should get some rest too.”
“Yes, sir. Don’t stay up toote. Work is endless,” the maid reminded him,
“I know,” Damon replied.
Seeing his focus still on the documents, the maid sighed and left.
The next morning, N woke up to find it was already past 8:00 a.m. She was surprised because she
usually had trouble sleeping away from home, yet she had slept so soundly there.
After getting ready, she went downstairs where breakfast was already set out on the table.This is from N?velDrama.Org.
Damon was sitting at the table, reading the news.
“Good morning. Uncle Damon,” N greeted.
“Good morning. How did you sleepst night?” Damon asked, setting his tablet aside and looking at her.
“Pretty well,” she replied.
Damon nodded and resumed eating breakfast.
N wanted to ask about Spencer’s progress but decided it was best not to interrupt Damon while he was eating. She waited until breakfast was over.
“Uncle Damon, have there been any updates on Vrie’s situation?” she asked.
“Still under investigation. There hasn’t been much progress,” Damon answered.
Disappointment shed in N’s eyes. “Okay.”
“I’ll have HR give you a few days off. Come back to work once you’ve had a chance to recover,” Damon said.
to work.
N shook her head. “No need. I can return to
Damon looked at her. “Aren’t you going to the hospital anymore?”
“I wouldn’t be of much help at the hospital, I’ll visit Vrie after work each day,” N replied.
Seeing her calm demeanor and recognizing that staying upied at work might be better for her than dwelling on the situation, Damon nodded. “Alright.”

n the way to Prospectus Technology, N asked Damon to drop her off a couple of blocks from thepany so she could walk the rest of the way.
Damon didn’t insist and had the driver stop.
After thanking him, N got out and headed toward thepany.
The ck Maybach soon merged into traffic and disappeared from N’s view.
As soon as she reached thepany entrance, she received a call from rk.
“N, where did you <b>spend </b>the night?!” <b>he </b>demanded.
rk was shocked to receive a call from the housekeeper first thing in the morning, saying N hadn’t <be </b>home all night. Since their wedding, she had always returned home on time, making it unusual for her to be gone for an entire night.
The more he thought about it, the more suspicious it seemed.
N looked down and responded calmly. “rk, I’m an adult, not your property. I don’t need to report where I go to you.”
rk sneered. “Even if you don’t tell me, I can find out. I’m giving you two options–either tell me now or, when I find out who you were with, the <b>kidney </b>for your father…”
