Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla) novel Chapter 1308

"Sure," Nyla replied.

After Alexander left, she turned to Damon. "We really will make it back together, right?"

Seeing the worry in her eyes, Damon pulled her into his arms. "Yes. I promise. Trust me."

She didn't say anything more, simply resting against his chest. Deep down, however, unease still lingered.

…

Three more days passed, and George still hadn't found Nyla.

Meanwhile, unrest within the Nixons was worsening. More and more people began openly opposing Emerald, demanding a new leader.

Emerald was exhausted and overwhelmed.

The stress took a toll on her body—she collapsed and was rushed to the hospital again.

When she woke up, the doctor warned her that she couldn't keep pushing herself like this, or her health would suffer serious consequences.

"I understand," Emerald said flatly. "I'd like to be alone now."

Sighing, the doctor left the room.

Emerald stared out the window, her gaze distant.

For years, she had fought relentlessly to become the head of the Nixons.

But after everything—her son had lost a leg, one daughter hated her, and the other refused to obey her—now, the family she had fought so hard to control was slipping from her grasp.

Had she made the wrong choices from the very beginning?

When Filipe arrived, he found Emerald still gazing out the window, lost in thought.

Sighing, he walked over and quietly shut the window.

"Madam, you need to take care of yourself," he advised.
