Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla) novel Chapter 1140

Drake's smile deepened. "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I can help both you and the Wilkie Group."

"I asked, why should I trust you?" Pedro repeated.

"I can invest 10,000,000 dollars into the Wilkie Group right now, no strings attached," Drake said, pulling out his phone and making a call. "Transfer 10,000,000 to the Wilkie Group immediately."

Not even 20 seconds after ending the call, Pedro's phone rang.

"Grandpa, someone just transferred 10,000,000 dollars into the Wilkie Group's account!" Theo exclaimed.

Pedro's expression shifted, his voice steady yet wary. "Do not touch that money. Wait for my instructions."

"Understood," Theo replied.

Hanging up the phone, Pedro glanced at Drake. "Come inside. We'll talk."

Inside the study, Pedro closed the door and turned to face Drake. "I believe you're capable of helping me deal with Damon. But I need to know—why are you going after him? Otherwise, I can't trust you."

If this man were a plant sent by Damon to trap him, cooperating would put the Wilkie Group in jeopardy.

Drake took a sip of coffee and smiled. "You don't need to worry. I'm not one of Damon's people. I'm the vice CEO of MK Company. My goal is to see Prospectus Technology go bankrupt. Here's my card."

Pedro took the card, glanced at it briefly, and set it on the table.

He was familiar with MK—a large enterprise based in Meristate.
