Mason put on a sweet, obedient expression. "Okay."
After selecting his food, he handed the menu back. "Can I go now?"
The man nodded. "Go ahead."
Mason quickly headed for the door. As he reached it, he glanced back and saw the man still sitting calmly, making no move to follow him.
Suspicion crept into his mind. Why wasn't the man worried about him escaping?
The man raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong? Not going?"
"N-No, I'm going now," Mason stammered.
Fearing the man might change his mind, Mason bolted out the door and raced down the hallway.
The man smiled, then removed his mask and took a sip of his red wine.
Instead of heading to the restroom, Mason made a beeline for the restaurant's exit. If he could just get outside, he could find a phone and call his parents to come and save him.
Although he didn't believe the strange man would hurt him, he was still afraid.
He ran as fast as his little legs could carry him, and soon the entrance came into view.
Ten meters.
Nine meters.
Eight meters.
...
Two meters.
One meter.
Just as he was about to reach the door, two men in black suits appeared out of nowhere, blocking his path.

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....
