Jacqueline forced a smile and stood up, saying, “Okay, there’s a new restaurant that’s really good. Once you’re not busy, let’s go there together.”
“Sure,” Tom answered.
After Jacqueline left, he frowned and stared at his phone for a while before calling Valarie.
The call quickly went to a busy tone, and his expression darkened completely.
“Nyla, Nyla?” Melody called out.
Nyla snapped back to reality, looking at Melody, who was staring at her curiously. Nyla collected herself. “Sorry, what did you say?”
“Nyla, do you have something on your mind? You’ve been zoning out a lot,” Melody asked with concern.
Nyla looked down. After a few seconds of silence, she suddenly stood up. “Melody, I just remembered something I need to take care of. You can go back to the lab first after lunch.”
Before Melody could respond, Nyla grabbed her tray and left. After returning her tray, she took the elevator to the top floor.
When Spencer saw her, he frowned and stepped in front of her. “Ms. Jayston, Mr. Sumner is resting. If you need something, come back in the afternoon.”
“No need. I’ll wait here,” Nyla replied.
“Is it urgent?” Spencer asked to confirm.

Although he didn’t like Nyla much after the hospital incident, he was worried that Damon would be angry if it was important and he delayed
her.
Nyla shook her head. “It’s not urgent. I’ll wait until he wakes up.”
She found a chair in the break room and sat down.
After hesitating for a moment, Spencer decided not to disturb Damon. After all, making Nyla wait wouldn’t hurt anyone.
Nyla waited for over an hour.
As the afternoon work hours began, Spencer saw that Nyla was still there and finally went to notify Damon.
Soon, Spencer told Nyla she could go in.
In the office, Damon was reading a document and didn’t look up when he heard her footsteps.
“What do you need?” he asked.
“Mr. Sumner, I know you don’t want to see me. I’ll leave after I say what I need to say,” Nyla began. “I heard several companies that have strong partnerships with Gen Pharma and the Rainford Group have terminated their contracts with Prospectus Technology. If necessary, I can apologize to Jacqueline.”
Damon looked up at her. “Why do you suddenly want to apologize to Jacqueline? Do you think you were wrong that day?”
Nyla took a deep breath and looked at him seriously. “I don’t think I was wrong. I just don’t want to cause you any more trouble.”

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....
