Your Uncle’s My Husband Now Back Off Ex (Nyla and Clark) novel Chapter 1232

32

A cold glint flashed in Darcy’s eyes when he saw that Emerald remained completely calm and could even smile.

“Emerald, we’ve known each other for so many years. I don’t want things to get ugly. You already have more wealth than you could spend in a lifetime, and with Brian losing a leg, he’s no longer a viable successor to the Nixons. If you step down now, I won’t make things difficult for you,” Darcy said.

Emerald set down her teacup, her expression steady as she met Darcy’s gaze. Tve told you before–my chosen successor is my eldest daughter, Nyla, not Brian. So whether or not Brian is injured has nothing to do with the future of the Nixons.”

Darcy’s face darkened. “So you’re refusing to settle this peacefully?”

“The moment you came to my estate and kidnapped my daughters, a peaceful resolution was off the table,” Emerald replied.

As soon as she finished speaking, more than a dozen men in black emerged from the shadows, swiftly surrounding them.

Darcy’s expression changed instantly. He gritted his teeth. “Emerald, what the hell do you think you’re doing?!”

Emerald smirked. “I’m making it very clear who’s really in charge.”

At her signal, the black–clad men surged forward. Within two minutes, Darcy was pinned to the ground.

Restrained and furious, he leered at Emerald. “You think I came here unprepared? Before I arrived, I ordered Tony to rally our forces. Right now, this estate is completely surrounded!”

He expected Emerald to panic at this revelation, but instead, she simply chuckled. “Darcy, do you really think Tony works for you?”

Darcy’s eyes widened in shock. “What?! That’s impossible!”

Tony Auger had always been on his side. They had spent years strategizing together, plotting against Emerald with ruthless precision. He despised her–Darcy was certain of it.

Emerald’s gaze was almost pitying. “How sad. You only figured it out now? If you don’t believe me, I’ll let Tony tell you himself.”

She dialed a number. “Come to the estate. Now.”
