A trace of guilt flickered in Harrison's eyes. He didn't say anything further and lowered his head to drink the soup.
Only after finishing did Nyla stand up. "Dad, I have something to take care of this afternoon, so I won't stay with you. If anything comes up, just give me a call."
Harrison nodded. "Alright, go ahead."
Once outside the hospital, Nyla got into her car but didn't start it right away. Instead, she flipped through the list of rewards Mason had requested, categorizing them before finally starting the engine and heading straight for the mall.
In addition to the gifts Mason had asked for, she also bought him birthday presents for every year up until he turned 20.
After carefully selecting and packaging everything, she arranged for the items to be delivered to the villa after 9:00 p.m., when Mason would likely be asleep.
By the time she finished and headed home, it was already past 6:00 p.m.
Winter nights fell quickly, and by the time she parked in front of the villa, the sky had completely darkened.
The moment Nyla stepped into the living room, Mason rushed into her arms. "Mommy! You took so long visiting Grandpa. I've been waiting forever!"
She stroked his head with a smile. "Alright, I got it. Tomorrow, when I go visit Grandpa again, I'll bring you along. How does that sound?"
"Okay!" Mason chirped.
After coaxing Mason, Nyla glanced around the living room but didn't see Damon.
Turning to Lydia, she asked, "Where's Damon?"
"Mr. Sumner is still in the study handling work. He said he'd wait for you to come back before eating dinner," Lydia informed her.
Nyla nodded. "Alright, I'll go get him."
Just as she was about to knock on the study door, she heard Damon's cold voice from inside.
"For the companies willing to cooperate, have someone handle the contracts. As for those who refuse, find a way to acquire them," he ordered. "I want results in three days. Do what I said."
Nyla pursed her lips before knocking on the door.
"Come in," Damon called out.

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....
