Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla) novel Chapter 967

After a brief hesitation, Nyla decided to share her suspicions with Damon.

Listening intently, Damon frowned and spoke in a low voice. "I understand. I'll have Spencer look into it."

"Okay." Nyla sighed, hoping that Ruby had nothing to do with the matter.

After dinner, Damon retreated to his study. As soon as he picked up a file, his phone rang.

"Mr. Sumner, we've received news from Falcon. The real owner behind Nyce Tech... You know him," Spencer reported.

Damon's expression remained unchanged as he asked, "Is it Gabriel?"

"Yes…" Spencer replied.

"I see. Keep a close watch on Starlite. Gabriel's goal is likely to take over the Wilkie Group," Damon instructed.

"Understood. Should we inform Mr. Wilkie about this?" Spencer asked.

If Nyce Tech acquired the Wilkie Group, it would pose a significant threat to Prospectus Technology.

"No need for now. Let's see what his next move is. In the meantime, investigate where Sullivan funneled the embezzled funds," Damon said.

"Sullivan?" Spencer paused, then recalled the team leader who had embezzled from their pharmaceutical research funds.

Although the amount wasn't significant to Prospectus Technology, such matters were usually left to the legal team. Why was Damon personally involved this time?

"Understood," Spencer replied.

…

The next morning, Nyla called Ruby to invite her to dinner that evening as a farewell gesture.

There was a long silence before Ruby responded. "I appreciate the thought, Nyla, but there's no need for dinner. I'm busy packing these days. If there's nothing else, let's leave it at that."

She urged, "Let's get ready for the experiment."

As Nyla walked away, Leon decided he wouldn't bother with the farewell dinner either. A person so ungrateful wasn't worth the effort.

…

Ruby had finally finished packing and sat in her living room to rest. Just as she picked up her phone, her mind drifted back to Nyla's call that morning.

Her feelings were conflicted. On the one hand, she was deeply grateful for Nyla's past help. On the other, she feared that Nyla might uncover the truth about her recent actions, so she had chosen to avoid further contact.

Her thoughts were interrupted by the sudden ringing of her phone.

Seeing that it was Paul, she hesitated for a moment before answering, "Mr. Vernon, what is it?"

"My assistant discovered that the money you gave me came from the embezzled funds tied to Mr. Heseltine's case. When would you be available to meet?" Paul asked.
