Damon replied coolly, "Understood."
He ended the call and discussed the plan with Nyla, ensuring the conversation wouldn't raise Gabriel's suspicions.
Just as Nyla was about to dial, her phone lit up with an incoming call. Seeing Gabriel's name on the screen, she froze for a moment before exchanging a glance with Damon.
Taking a deep breath, she answered. "Hello?"
"Nyla, you should be on your way by now. I've changed my mind. Go to the Sotoz subway station. Damon should head to the Marsh Street subway station. I'll have someone bring Mason to him there," Gabriel instructed.
Sotoz and Marsh Street were in entirely different directions from the original locations he had provided—one to the east, the other to the west.
However, Sotoz was only a few kilometers from Garmony Residence.
"Alright, I understand," Nyla said evenly.
"Don't try anything funny," Gabriel warned. "If you or Damon deviate from the plan, neither of you will ever see Buddy again."
Clenching the phone tightly, Nyla steadied herself before replying, "I understand."
Because the call was on speaker, Damon had heard everything.
Nyla turned to him. "I'll have the driver go slower. You move faster. Once you've secured Buddy, I'll figure out how to get back."
With Gabriel changing the locations at the last minute, Damon's original plans were rendered useless. There wasn't enough time to redeploy his men effectively.
"Alright. Be careful," Damon said.
"I will," Nyla replied.
As she turned to get in the car, Damon suddenly pulled her into a hug from behind.
"Nyla, stay safe," he said, his voice heavy with worry.
Nyla's eyes reddened. She didn't know if she would return safely. Ahead of her lay Gabriel's trap.

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....
