The words had barely left Nigel's mouth when he met Alexander's sharp gaze. A chill ran down his spine, and he quickly lowered his head, avoiding Alexander's stare.
"Since when do you get to make decisions for me?" Alexander asked lightly. "Want to switch seats? You can take my position instead."
Nigel immediately ducked his head even further, his voice trembling. "I'm sorry, Mr. Kinsey. I overstepped."
Alexander said nothing more, but the heavy pressure in the air made Nigel feel like he was sitting on needles. He quickly pulled out his phone and booked a flight.
Ten minutes later, he reported, "Mr. Kinsey, I booked you a flight for tomorrow morning at 8:00 a.m. It's the earliest one available."
"Okay." Alexander gave a lazy response and said no more.
Knowing he had spoken out of turn earlier, Nigel didn't dare make another sound. He shrank back in his seat, hoping to make himself invisible.

Damon handed over a signed contract to Drake in Prospectus Technology's CEO office with a smile. "Mr. Mummery, I look forward to working together."
Drake smiled back. "Likewise."
After leaving Prospectus Technology, Drake got into his car and immediately made a phone call. "It's done. I signed the contract with Prospectus Technology. What's next?"
"Nothing else. Just return to Meristate as soon as possible. We don't want Emerald getting suspicious," the person on the line said.
"Understood."
After hanging up, Drake sneered.

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....
