Chapter 492 My Decision

• Nylah Scott's reaction didn't catch me off guard. She didn't have many close relatives to begin with, and she certainly wouldn't stand by and watch Dad's career crumble.
• So all I could do was offer her a wry smile. Perhaps Nylah Scott was onto something. Maybe I should take a step back, refrain from getting tangled up in this chaos. We had a content life, a flawless family. There was no need for me to take any more risks.
• After dinner, I found myself sitting alone on the steps by the door, quietly smoking. I couldn't pinpoint when the wind had picked up in the yard, causing the trees around me to rustle. The wind carried delicate snowflakes, landing on my face, chilling and icy.
