We used to love each other. Even though we're apart now, I still want the best for you. It's just that my uncle isn't right for you." Nyla frowned and said coldly, "I don't want to hear your nonsense. Move aside!" Her good mood, which had brightened after meeting Caroline, was completely ruined by her encounter with Clark.
