Nyla looked up and saw the deep sadness in Damon's eyes, which caused a sharp pang in her chest.
She reached out and hugged him, whispering, "Yes, as long as the three of us are together, we'll be okay."
The two held each other in silence, as if time had frozen in that moment.
After a while, a knock came at the door.
Damon released Nyla and called out, "Come in."
Spencer entered and reported, "Mr. Sumner, the employees' salaries and severance pay have been disbursed. They'll pack their things and leave by tonight. The shareholders have also taken their shares and left."
As he spoke, his eyes reddened. He had never imagined the company he'd worked at for so many years would one day face bankruptcy.
If it weren't for Henry leaking so much confidential data, Prospectus Technology wouldn't have ended up like this.
Damon, looking weary, pinched the bridge of his nose. "Got it. You should also collect your pay and severance and then leave."
The company was bankrupt, and he no longer needed a secretary.
Spencer shook his head. "Mr. Sumner, I don't need it. Over the years, the salary and bonuses you've given me have been more than enough for me to buy a home and live comfortably."
In fact, with a bit of frugality, he could nearly achieve financial independence.
Damon frowned. "What you're owed, you'll get every cent. Go collect your pay."
Spencer wanted to refuse again, but Nyla spoke first. "Mr. Hogg, just follow what he says."
Under her steady gaze, Spencer hesitated before nodding. "Alright, Ms. Kinsey, I understand."
"Good. Please give us a moment alone," Nyla replied.

The readers' comments on the novel: Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla)
More chapters please why stop updating...
When will the new chapters come...
Author! Why does it always so mean? Like a new character will appear and at the end of the chapter, they're all antagonist who always intend to hurt Nyla. Is there any character who will protect her with no expectation in return of any thing?...
AUTHOR!!! NOTICE THIS PLEASE!!!! I hope that Nyla's heart can be softened with Damon alone like clear things up and make some intimate time with each other. And of course Damon talking to Rebecca will make Nyla go back to her status again. Just a short calmness and joy for Nyla and Damon....
