Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla) novel Chapter 1278

"You did a lot too. You negotiated directly with Darcy and risked offending him just to save me." Nyla's gaze into Ross' eyes was full of gratitude.

Ross smiled. "It was my honor to help you and Damon."

After a brief hesitation, Nyla couldn't hold back her curiosity any longer. "How do you know Damon?"

Before coming to Meristate, she had no idea that Damon was acquainted with someone as powerful as Ross.

The night Emerald had thrown her out of the estate, she hadn't walked far when a car suddenly pulled up in front of her. Two men in black had gotten out, taken her without explanation, and brought her to Ross' estate.

At first, she had assumed she was being kidnapped. It wasn't until Ross mentioned that he knew Damon—and even called him right in front of her—that she realized he had no ill intentions.

Later, Ross had been a great help to both her and Damon.

Nyla couldn't help but wonder what kind of relationship the two men had for Ross to go so far for them.

Ross chuckled. "Damon and I have known each other for over 20 years. The first time we met, he saved my life. Since then, we've kept in touch. I've always wanted to repay him, but I never got the chance.

"It wasn't until he reached out to me that I found out Emerald forcibly brought you to Meristate.

"As for the details of how we met, you should ask Damon yourself. It's his personal matter, and I don't want to overstep."

Nyla was surprised, but she finally understood why Ross had been so willing to help them.

"Ross, no matter what, I'm truly grateful," she said.
