Your Uncle’s My Husband Now Back Off, Ex! novel Chapter 461

Chapter 461

Nyla glanced at Mason, who was waiting at the table for dinner, and hesitated.

“Caroline, I really don’t have time tonight. The nanny is on leave, and I’m not comfortable leaving Buddy at home alone,” she explained.

“Why don’t you bring him along? I can look after him for a while. Once you’re done with the investor, you can take him back home,” Caroline offered.

Hearing Caroline’s urgent tone, Nyla realized it would be difficult to avoid tonight’s party.

She bit her lip and said softly, “Let me ask Buddy.”

After ending the call, Nyla walked over to the dining table and crouched down to face Mason. “Buddy, Mommy needs to go to a celebration party tonight. I’m not comfortable leaving you at home alone. Would you like to come with me? It won’t take long.”

Mason looked at her, thought for a few seconds, then nodded. “Okay.”

He jumped off his chair and headed to his bedroom.

Nyla followed him and watched as he grabbed his portable language practice tape from his room. She felt a bit exasperated.

“Mason, you can take one of the comic books Mommy bought you when you go out to play. You don’t have to study all the time,” Nyla reminded him.

Mason looked unfazed. “I don’t like comic books.”

“What do you like then? Tell Mommy. I’ll get it for you next time,” Nyla said.

“I like studying,” Mason answered.

Nyla was speechless.

Sometimes, she felt there was no common ground between her and her son.

At his age, shouldn’t he be into toy cars and superheroes? Why did he always seem so much more mature and emotionally stable than she was?

Being a mother in this situation felt unfulfilling.

The venue for the celebration party was not far from Nyla’s apartment, taking less than half an hour to reach.

As she got out of the car, she saw Caroline anxiously scanning the entrance.

When Caroline spotted Nyla, she quickly walked over to her “Nyla, you finally made it! Professor Kington asked me to wait for you here.”

Nyla nodded. “Has the investor arrived yet?”

“Not yet, but they should be here soon. There are already several interested investors in the room. Why don’t you go ahead and leave Buddy with me?” Caroline suggested.

Nyla looked down at Mason. Just as she was about to speak, Mason said, “Mommy, go to work. I’ll listen to Aunt Caroline.”

“Alright. Caroline, I’ll leave Buddy in your care,” Nyla replied.

“No trouble at all. Go on in,” Caroline replied.
