Wren’s voice was pleading, but a chill ran down Nyla’s spine. This must be the real reason she had called.
Nyla had already been blackmailed by Clark numerous times with the promise of a kidney donation for her father, only to be betrayed when the kidney was given to Jordyn’s father instead.
“Wren, I can’t agree to this,” Nyla replied firmly. “A person can’t live without bottom lines. If I compromise this time, I’ll be letting Clark control me forever.”
She had compromised too many times before, each instance leading to more pain and betrayal from Clark. She wouldn’t trust him again, nor would she compromise.
There was a long silence on the other end of the line, followed by the sound of the call being disconnected.
Nyla had no intention of calling back. She simply put down her phone and went to take a shower.
The next few days passed quietly.
Clark didn’t reach out, and Nyla’s life returned to its calm routine.
Just when she thought she could approach Richard in about a week to quietly discuss divorcing Clark, news broke out that Jordyn was pregnant. Photos of Clark and Jordyn kissing resurfaced and began trending once more.
Unaware that Jordyn’s pregnancy had been exposed, Nyla noticed people giving her sympathetic looks as she walked into the office, leaving her puzzled.
Did she have something on her face?
She had no idea that people were now assuming she would soon be abandoned by Clark. After all, it had only been a few days since their hidden marriage was made public.
Now, news of Jordyn’s pregnancy had leaked, along with the recent photos of her kissing Clark. It was hard not to assume that the child was Clark’s.
When Nyla entered the lab, she noticed that even Melody was sneaking glances at her, her expression a mix of sympathy and hesitation.
Nyla frowned. “Melody, did something happen? Why is everyone looking at me so strangely?”
“You really don’t know?” Melody’s gaze filled with even more pity as she looked at Nyla.
“What’s going on? Don’t just stand there. Tell me!” Nyla demanded.
“Well… just look for yourself,” Melody muttered, thrusting a phone screen in front of Nyla.
Nyla took a closer look, and her expression darkened instantly.
She quickly pulled out her phone and called Clark, but despite several attempts, he didn’t pick up. With each unanswered call, her expression grew increasingly grim.
Meanwhile, Clark was ordering Michael to find out who had leaked the news about Jordyn’s pregnancy

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....
