"Grandpa, the hackers attacking our firewall are gone now. The firewall is fixed, and the company is operating normally again!" Theo exclaimed.
Pedro remained calm. "I see. You can go back to work now."
Theo was momentarily taken aback. "Grandpa, aren't you surprised?"
"I'm just tired. I'll head home now," Pedro replied.
Seeing Pedro stand up to leave, Theo quickly stopped him. "Grandpa, since you're here, stay a bit longer. There are a few documents I don't quite understand. Could you help me out?"
Pedro sat back down on the sofa upon noticing Theo's serious expression. "Bring them over."
…
An hour later, Pedro's face turned beet red with anger as he glared at Theo. "You're a complete failure! I regret handing the company to you. I might as well have given it to Jane!"
Although Jane lacked boldness, at least she wouldn't make these rookie mistakes like Theo.
Theo's face darkened. "Grandpa, how long has Jane been with the company, and how long have I been here? Isn't it normal that I don't know everything yet? I've been trying hard to learn! You can't expect me to know everything overnight!"
Pedro pointed at him, his head throbbing with frustration. "If you don't know, go learn from the other shareholders or the secretary! I've hired so many mentors over the years, and this is what you've become. All that money wasted!"
"Grandpa, what good is saying all this now? The most important thing is to teach me how to read these contracts," Theo argued.
Pedro took a deep breath, pointed at one of the clauses in the contract, and coldly said, "There's a problem here. Mark it."
Theo nodded. "Oh... okay. What's the issue?"
"Just mark it. I'll explain it to you later," Pedro instructed.
There were several similar issues in the documents Theo had brought, but the fool hadn't noticed any of them.

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....
