NovelBookX "Fine," Valarie conceded.
As Nyla sat across from Valarie, the latter hesitated after taking a careful spoonful of oatmeal and asked, "Nyla... I didn't make too much of a scene last night after getting drunk, did I?" She vaguely remembered crying on Nyla's shoulder and being quite loud about it. It was so embarrassing....
Nyla raised an eyebrow. "Now you're worried about being embarrassed?" Valarie could only look down in silence. If she had known she would be so out of control while drunk, she would have avoided alcohol altogether and not even gone to the bar last night.
"Did something happen yesterday that made you drink so much?" Nyla asked.
Valarie's gaze dimmed as she looked down and murmured, "I'd rather not talk about it." Nyla didn't press further and nodded. "If you don't want to talk about it, that's fine. Just finish your oatmeal. I'll take you to work after you shower." Valarie thought for a moment and declined, "No need. My company is in the opposite direction from Prospectus Technology, and since our work hours are similar, it would be too tight for you to dropoff and then get to your job. I'll just take a cab." Nyla bit into her breakfast and said casually, "It's fine. I've already resigned." Even if she hadn't resigned, Prospectus Technology would have told her to stay hand wait for the outcafter what happened yesterday.

"I need to prepare for the graduate entrance exams. Working takes up too much of my time. I could only study in the evenings, and I don't want to repeat this process," Nyla explained.
Valarie was shocked. "Why did you suddenly decide to pursue graduate studies?" "It's been a regret not to have pursued it earlier. Now that I'm divorced from Clark, I want to start a new chapter in my life," Nyla answered.
"What about Damon?" Valarie asked.
Nyla smiled, her expression calm and detached. "What I had with him was just a brief dream. Now that the dream is over, it's tforto wake up." She and Damon had no future together, especially now that he was back with Rebecca. It seemed even less likely.
Valarie fell silent, recognizing that starting anew with graduate studies was indeed the best choice for Nyla at the moment.
"Which school are you planning to apply to?" she asked.
"A university in Capitarnia. I have a senior there, and the school is quite reputable," Nyla replied.
"That's quite far," Valarie commented.
They were in Saintornia, at the southern edge of the country, while Capitarnia was in the north. It would take several hours by plane. "It's not too far. I can always cback if needed," Nyla said.
Valarie sighed and didn't press further. She understood Nyla's desire to leave Saintornia and start fresh in a new city.
After breakfast, Nyla gathered a set of her clothes for Valarie. Their sizes were similar, and they had often swapped clothes in the past.

"No, I'm awake. Did you find out anything about last night?" Nyla asked.
"Yes." Pete's voice was somber.
"Steven Abney is the grandson of a victim from the Harris
