Chapter 123
If this were to get out, people might start saying she was being mistreated in the Sumners.
Clark’s smile deepened as he looked at Damon and said, word by word, ” Uncle Damon, you probably don’t know yet, but Nyla moved back today.”
Damon widened his eyes and turned his icy gaze to Nyla, who had remained silent.
He wanted to ask her if she really intended to forgive Clark just like that, but he couldn’t. He was only her husband’s uncle. Beyond that, they had no other relationship. What right did he have to question her?
Even though Nyla kept her head down, she could feel Damon’s gaze on her. It sent a chill through her entire body, making her shiver involuntarily.
After several seconds, Damon chuckled. “Well, that’s good to hear.”
He looked away, a smile on his face, but his eyes were cold.
Clark’s gaze flashed with triumph. “Uncle Damon, you should focus on your own love life. I think Ms. Hulle and you are quite a match, don’t you think, Nyla?”
He turned to Nyla, seeking her opinion.
Nyla forced a smile and nodded as she said, “Yes, Ms. Hulle is elegant and beautiful. She and Uncle Damon do seem well–suited.”
“Then let’s take your word for it, Ms. Nyla,” Erin said with a smile, though her gaze was scrutinizing Nyla.

The rest of the meal was somewhat silent, with everyone lost in their

Near the end of dinner, Clark received a call from his secretary, informing him of an issue at the company that needed his attention.
He planned to take Nyla with him, but Marie interjected, “You go handle the work. Nyla will stay here. I want to talk to her.”
After a moment’s hesitation, Clark told Nyla, “Wait for me here. I’ll come back to pick you up once I’ve dealt with the issue.”
Nyla nodded. “Okay.”
Seeing his worried expression, Marie asked with a frown, “What? You don’t trust her here?”
“No, Grandma, I’ll head to the company now,” Clark answered.
Shortly after Clark left, Erin also got up to leave.
Marie smiled warmly at her and said, “Erin, come visit us often.”
“Yes, I’ll be sure to visit regularly. I hope I won’t become a nuisance,” Erin replied.
“Not at all. If it weren’t so late, I’d ask you to stay longer. Damon, see Erin out,” Marie said.
After Damon and Erin disappeared through the doorway, Marie turned to Nyla with a serious expression and said, “Come with me.”
Half an hour later, Nyla followed Marie out of the study.
“Remember what I just told you?” Marie asked.
Nyla lowered her gaze and nodded. “Yes, Grandma, I remember.”
“Good. Now that you’re part of the Sumners, your actions reflect on us. It’s normal for couples to argue, but if it gets out, it will ember

The readers' comments on the novel: Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla)
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....
