Chapter 128
Darius clenched his teeth. He thought. At the root of it all, the reason my relationship with Kai has become so strained is because of the matron and her two children.
Those little brats have bullied Kai since childhood, and the matron has always shielded her own offspring. The moment Kazi dares to fight back, she would punish him relentlessly.
“How could I ever go against the matron?
“Everything I did, including today’s actions, is all to follow the matron’s wishes. Yet now, I am being painted as the sole villain while everyone else washes their hands clean of any blame.
What a joke!
“Visiting Kai?” Darius let out a sharp, mocking laugh. “Aren’t you here to see how miserable he looks in the hospital
“And you even claimed that Kai’s inheritance belongs entirely to you
As soon as the infighting began, the livestream viewers perked up with interest.
[Did I hear that right?]
[Dividing up the inheritance while the guy’s still alive?]
[This is beyond shameless.]
[I almost fell for their act just now.]
[Same here!]
Looks like none of them are any good]
With blow after blow raining down, Darius finally snapped. Once he started spiraling, he only became more unhinged.
Not only did he shout at the matron, but he also dredged up old grievances and spilled every dark secret of their family.
Not just the viewers—even the medical staff at the scene were left stunned. They thought, “Oh my. Lord Kai has suffered so much. So the entire family is this rotten”
Eliana’s secondary consorts surged forward, trying to shut Darius up, but the medical staff held them back, thinking, Whit— let him talk. We haven’t heard enough yet
Eliana never expected Darius to suddenly lose his mind. She trembled with fury, gritting her teeth. She thought, Useless trash. Dragging everyone down with him–what good would that do for him?
“Lies. You’re spouting all this nonsense–where’s your proof?” She didn’t believe Darius had any evidence.
“If you want proof, I do have some,” Kai suddenly spoke, taking over the conversation.
Over the years, Darius’s family had constantly tried to scheme against him, but they had never succeeded. Instead, they had left behind plenty of incriminating evidence.
Kai had originally planned to keep them around for his own amusement, prolonging their suffering rather than crushing them all at once.
But this time, they had gone as far as causing trouble in front of Nyx

Kai’s emerald eyes turned icy. He had no patience for their games anymore.
Letting Nyx witness such a disgusting scene—he felt utterly humiliated.
T handle them,” he murmured to Nyx, his voice low and firm. “I won’t let you see anything this vile again.”
Nyx felt a deep ache in her heart. Having seen Kai’s past memories, and now hearing Darius’s accusations one by one, she could vividly imagine just how tragic Kai’s childhood had been.
Unable to resist, she hugged the leopard in her arms tighter, gently stroking its back in comfort. She thought, “Thankfully, the battered little cub has still managed to grow up.
The moment the leopard touched Nyx’s skin, it instinctively nuzzled against her, burrowing into her embrace.
Then, realizing what it was doing, he was filled with embarrassment. He wanted to apologize, but Nyx lightly pinched his soft, furry mouth
At once, he froze stiff, his gaze darting away.
Being treated so gently by Nyx, he couldn’t help but let his mind wander–yet he was terrified of overthinking things.
While Kai wrestled with his emotions, the livestream viewers had already started celebrating on his behalf.
[Good job!]
[It wasn’t easy, but Lord Kai has finally got Nyx!]
[Internet hug. I want to hug Lord Nyx too.]
[Watching that family’s drama was such an eyesore. This is the kind of quality content I need to cleanse my eyes!]
[By saving the beauty, he wins her over–Lord Kai definitely is the winner.]
[Guess you could say his hardships have finally paid off.]
Even Kai’s rivals showed him a bit of leniency after he was severely injured while saving Nyx.
Felix even spoke to Kai in a rare gentle tone. “Focus on recovering first. I can handle the rest for now.”
The injuries Kai sustained in the explosion were serious–he needed at least a month of proper rest.
To make sure this leopard behaved, Nyx kept an eye on him.
The high–end hospital room was spacious, with a dedicated caregiver’s room attached. Nyx stayed there at night, separated from Kai by just a door.
This was the happiest time of Kai’s life so far.
At first, Kai thought he was still dreaming. It took him several days to finally accept reality. But once he got used to it, he found it impossible to let go. He thought, ‘If only these happy days could last a little longer
“Kai, look,” Nyx teased him by brushing something soft against his face before holding it up to show him. “I made you a new handkerchief and Guardian Angel Medal!”
The ones she had given him before had been destroyed in the explosion, so she stayed up several nights to make replacements.
Since they were handmade, they weren’t exactly identical, but they were nearly perfect replicas.

Chapter 128
Seeing the familiar handkerchief and Guardian Angel Medal, Kai widened his eyes in disbelief. He immediately shifted into human form and carefully took them into his hands.
This time, the Guardian Angel Medal wasn’t scented with catnip perfume–it was completely infused with Nyx’s wenn
Stroking the medal, he looked even more intoxicated than when he was under the influence of catnip
After a long silence, Kai finally couldn’t hold back his emotions and spoke, “That day, after smelling the catnip perfume….. every word I said to you was true.”
Just admitting this truth drained all his courage. He lowered his head, too nervous to look at Nyz, waiting anxiously for her
response.
“I know.” Nyx gently ruffled his hair, gazing down at the normally stubborn male who had finally dropped his bravado “We’ve been together every day lately. How do you feel? Do you still like me?”
Kai thought, ‘Of course!‘ His head shot up, his emerald eyes burning with emotion.
But he wasn’t good with words. Instead of speaking, he just nodded–again and again, firmly and eagerly.
“Me too,” Nyx murmured, wrapping her arms around him.
From now on, she would take good care of this leopard. She wouldn’t let him suffer anymore.
Feeling Nyx’s tenderness, Kai trembled slightly. He reached out and hugged her back, pressing himself tightly against her small but warm frame, his mind dazed as if he were floating in a dream. He thought, ‘Happiness has truly arrived
SS–level males had extraordinary physical resilience, and with his heart filled with joy, Kai recovered completely in less than a month, leaving no lasting injuries.
After being discharged, he didn’t return to his old place. Instead, he packed up his belongings and followed Nyx home.
A welcome feast later, it was time for every male’s favorite activity–grooming.
The leopard, who used to watch longingly from outside the window, finally got to step inside and join the queue. When Seafarion arrived for a visit, he walked in on a scene of Kai nestled in Nyx’s embrace, his fluffy cheeks being rubbed and squeezed in her hands.
“Ah! You’re here?” Seeing a guest, Nyx quickly pulled back her hands, clearing her throat to regain her composure.
The sudden interruption made Kai unhappy. He lifted his head and glared at the unwelcome Sea Race intruder. He thought, ‘Him again? Wait… why does this guy’s physique look so familiar?‘
