Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla) novel Chapter 1385

More than half an hour later, Nyla finally stirred from her nap.

When she opened her eyes, she found Damon sitting by her bed, watching her. She froze for a moment, caught off guard.

Rubbing her eyes, she realized he was still there and confirmed she wasn't dreaming.

She slowly sat up, her voice still heavy with sleep. "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be in your study working?"

"I missed you, so I came to see you," Damon replied.

Nyla narrowed her eyes. "You definitely have something to say if you're here all of a sudden."

Damon chuckled, a little helpless. "I guess I can't fool you."

"Of course not. I know you too well. Ever since I got pregnant, you've never come to see me like this in the afternoon," Nyla said.

"Alright. Go freshen up first, and I'll wait for you downstairs," Damon suggested.

"Okay," Nyla replied.

After washing up, she went downstairs and sat beside Damon. "Alright, tell me. What's going on? You're acting all mysterious."

Damon hesitated for a moment before speaking. "Nyla, Ms. Kinsey has been charged with murder and is currently in prison."

Nyla's smile faltered. Her voice grew cold. "What does that have to do with me? I've already told you before that I don't want to hear about her. I don't care."

"I just heard from Alexander that her health is deteriorating. If she stays in prison, she might not survive the six months the doctors predicted. I just wanted to let you know so you can decide whether or not you want to see her."

Nyla lowered her gaze, silent for a while before looking up at him. "I'm not going. And I won't regret it, so you don't need to worry about me."

Even if she saw Emerald, what would they say to each other?

Immediately upon returning to the country, she had resolved to live as though she'd never known a mother. Visiting Emerald now felt like betraying everything she had endured in Meristate.

She couldn't and didn't want to forgive her.

Maybe one day in the future, she'd regret this decision, but that would be a problem for her future self. She didn't care about it now.
