"Alright, let's take a nap. We still have to play with Buddy later," Damon suggested.
Nyla shook her head. "Before we nap, there's something I need to tell you."
"What is it?" Damon asked.
She pulled a small notebook from her bag, flipped it open, and handed it to him. "This is what Buddy wrote last night—all the rewards he wants.
"I plan to buy the remaining ones over the next two days. I'll also prepare a few extra gifts. In the future, for his birthdays or holidays, just pick something from here and give it to him for me."
As soon as she finished speaking, Damon frowned. "Even after you go to Meristate, you can still send him gifts yourself. Are you planning never to come back?"
"No, listen to me. I just want to be prepared. If I can stay in touch with both of you after I leave, then you won't need to use these gifts. I'll choose new ones every year and send them myself. I'm just getting these ready in case something happens," Nyla explained.
Damon protested, "There won't be any 'in case.' I won't agree to this."
If he didn't agree, Nyla would keep thinking about it and figure out a way to contact them. If he agreed, she might think it was okay to let go completely.
"Damon, if you don't agree, I'll have Valarie do it instead," Nyla warned.
One way or another, she was determined to make sure it happened.
Damon's expression darkened, and a heavy silence filled the room.
After a long pause, he finally gave in. "Fine. I'll do it."
"Then it's settled," Nyla replied.
"Mm," he hummed in response, gazing at her profile with a mixture of sadness and helplessness in his eyes.
Because of their conversation, neither of them felt like napping anymore. They stayed in the living room until Mason woke up.
That afternoon, Damon took Mason on a tour of the resort.

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....
