Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla) novel Chapter 212

Chapter 212 

It seemed someone was already getting impatient. 

After tossing the dress aside, Nyla found a white V–neck slit dress in the closet and put it on. She removed the hair tie, letting her hair cascade down. She then 

straightened her hair with a flat iron and spent five minutes on a light makeup look before she was ready to leave. 

As soon as she got into the car and was about to fasten her seatbelt, Clark’s deep voice suddenly came from beside her. “Why aren’t you wearing the dress I had prepared for you?” 

Nyla raised an eyebrow and looked at him coldly. “That dress isn’t my size.” 

Clark, perceptive as ever, quickly understood, and his expression darkened. “I’ll look into this.” 

Nyla offered a slight smile. “Let’s go to the party first.” 

Her face was small and delicate, perfectly made up with light makeup. Her long hair flowed like silk behind her. In her white dress, she looked like a fragrant gardenia, so beautiful it was almost impossible to look away. 

Clark’s gaze lingered on Nyla with deeper intensity. He knew she didn’t trust him, so he sighed and fell silent, starting the car. 

When Clark’s black Cayenne arrived at the Sumner residence, it was already surrounded by luxury cars. 

The Sumner Group and Prospectus Technology were top–tier conglomerates in the city, and many from the upper echelons of society had come to the birthday party, eager to make connections. 

After Clark and Nyla got out of the car, Clark retrieved the prepared gift from the trunk and handed it to a maid at the door. 

They walked through the garden and finally entered the main hall. 

The main hall was filled with lively chatter and peals of laughter. Prominent figures who were usually seen only on TV were mingling, while high society ladies and socialites chatted among themselves. Everyone wore smiles, though the authenticity of those smiles was questionable.

In the center of the hall, Marie sat in the main seat with a beaming smile, flanked by Cindy and Anne. 

“Let’s go greet Grandma first,” Clark said, reaching to take Nyla’s hand. 

Nyla subtly pulled away. 

Clark’s eyes dimmed, but he didn’t press the issue and walked over to Marie first. 

“Grandma,” he greeted. 

Nyla followed and greeted her as well. 

Upon seeing Clark, Marie’s face lit up with a kind smile, though she didn’t glance at Nyla. 

“Clark, you’re back!” Marie exclaimed. 

“Yes, it’s your birthday. If I didn’t come, Grandpa would punish me,” Clark joked. 

Marie’s smile widened. “Enough with the jokes. Go and entertain the guests.” 

Clark nodded. “Alright.”
