"I really don't know. I can barely remember how we even started liking each other. By the time I realized it, we already had feelings," Nyla explained.
Seeing how serious Nyla looked, Valarie let out a sigh. "Fine. I guess I'll have to figure it out on my own."
The two continued chatting for a while. Just as Valarie was about to leave, Damon walked in.
She stood up to greet him but frowned slightly when she saw Brandon following behind him. Without a word, she completely ignored him.
Brandon's face darkened for a moment, and he was about to say something when Valarie turned to Nyla and said, "Nyla, I'm heading out."
"Okay, I'll walk you out," Nyla offered.
"No need. I've been here so many times—I know the way," Valarie dismissed.
Watching Valarie disappear out the door, Brandon hesitated for a moment before turning to Damon. "Uncle Damon, I need to talk to Valarie. Give me ten minutes."
Without waiting for a response, he rushed out after her.
When he reached the entrance, he saw Valarie about to get into her car and quickly stepped forward to block her. "We need to talk."
Valarie's expression was blank. "Mr. Sumner, we've broken up. There's nothing left to talk about. Now, please move."
Brandon looked helpless. "Valarie, I've already cut ties with Michelle. You won't see me with her ever again. Just give me one more chance, okay?"
Valarie almost laughed. "Brandon, do you really think I'd believe you?"
He had promised her the same thing countless times—swearing he wouldn't see Michelle again. And yet?
Time and time again, she had only been met with disappointment.
Now, she was done putting herself through the pain. She didn't want to hear another lie.
"This time, I swear—it's really the last time," Brandon promised.
Valarie took a deep breath, locking eyes with him. "Alright. If you're so sure, let's make a bet. If you can go one month without seeing Michelle, I'll take you back. But if you can't, then you need to leave me alone for good."

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....
