Chapter 1077 "You're Mommy's most precious treasure. If you ever got hurt from fighting, it would break my heart," Nyla said.
Mason hung his head, staying quiet for a while before finally nodding. "Okay, I understand." "Good. We'll go to the hospital now. After the checkup, I'll take you hif everything's fine, and you can skip school for today," Nyla explained.
Mason nodded. "Okay." When they arrived at the hospital, Gabriel and Wilhelm were already waiting at the entrance.
Nyla held Mason's hand as they approached them, her expression cold. "Let's go." Noticing her frosty demeanor, Gabriel stepped closer and lowered his voice. "Nyla, this was really just an accident." Nyla replied coolly, "You don't need to explain. I don't care." With that, she quickened her pace, making it clear she didn't want to continue the conversation.
Gabriel watched her slender figure as she walked away, his gaze darkening.

Inside the hospital, doctors and nurses efficiently examined Mason and Wilhelm.
As he had said, Mason was unharmed.
Wilhelm had only minor injuries-sredness, swelling, and a small scrape that would heal quickly with a little medication.
Relieved that Mason was fine, Nyla felt the tension leave her shoulders.
She held the medical report and told Gabriel, "I'll cover the cost of Wilhelm's examinations and medication." Gabriel sighed. "Nyla, there's no need to be so formal with me." Nyla frowned, about to respond, when her phone suddenly rang.
Seeing Damon's non the screen, she bit her lip and pulled Mason aside to answer.
"Hello? What's up?" she asked.
Damon's deep voice cthrough the line. "Nyla, where are you right now?" Nyla hesitated momentarily, instinctively glancing around as if he might somehow see her.
Did he already know she was at the hospital? Why else would he ask? "Is something wrong? Do you needfor something?" she asked instead.
"No, I just heard from Lydia that you haven't chyet, so I wanted to check on you," Damon explained. Nyla glanced at the time. It was nearly 10:00 a.m. She had dropped Mason off at school at 7:30 a.m. and should have been hlong ago.
After a brief pause, she decided against telling him about Mason's fight. It would only add to his worries, and he was already busy with the company's bankruptcy proceedings.

"No need. There's a lot to handle with the bankruptcy process, so it just grab something quick," Damon E answered. "Alright then. Take care," she said gently before ending the call.
Putting her phone away, Nyla turned to Gabriel. "Givethe bills for the exams and prescriptions. I'll go pay." "Nyla, really" Gabriel tried to decline.
"Gabriel," Nyla interrupted firmly. "I don't want to repeat myself. If you don't give them to me, I'll transter the money directly to your account." "Fine..." Gabriel relented, handing over the papers.
Without another word, Nyla turned and walked off to settle the bills.
After paying, she turned to Gabriel, who was holding Wilhelm's hand and standing behind her.
"The expenses have been taken care of. This matter is over Make sure your son doesn't say such things to Buddy again." Her tone was icy.
