Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla) novel Chapter 1150

"Just some womanly matters. Don't pry," Nyla chided, though her tone lacked sharpness.

Damon nodded. "Got it. Do you need me to drive you?"

"No, I'll take a cab," she replied.

"Alright," he said.

As Damon drove away, Nyla slipped her marriage certificate into her bag and flagged down a taxi. Her destination: the restaurant where she had arranged to meet Alexander.

…

When she arrived, she found herself 30 minutes early. Yet, Alexander was already there.

"You're here," he remarked, standing as she approached.

"Yes," she replied, seating herself across from him.

Her expression was composed, her gaze devoid of the resentment that once lingered there. "Why are you so early?"

"I didn't have anything else to do, so I came early," he said, shrugging lightly. "What did you want to talk about?"

Nyla drew a steady breath before speaking. "I thought about what you said after I got home. You're right—she's my mother. I can't cut her out of my life completely. I'm willing to try to accept her, but I need you to be honest with me. Why are you really here in Saintornia?"

Alexander's eyes flashed with surprise. "Nyla, I came to take you and Buddy to Meristate. That's all. Your mother has been eager to have you both live there. Now is the perfect time. She also wants you to inherit the Nixons."

Nyla blinked, processing his words. "Doesn't she already have a son and a daughter? Why would she want me to inherit it?"
