"Just say it was sent to you by someone named Pete," Damon replied.
If Pete hadn't suddenly disappeared, Damon wouldn't have needed to find Valarie.
"Got it," Valarie said.
After their discussion, Valarie decided not to stay for dinner with Damon, as they weren't close.
"If there's nothing else, I'll head out now," she said.
Damon looked at her seriously. "Ms. Weir, please keep this matter confidential. I don't want anyone to know that I handed you this file."
"Don't worry. I'll keep it to myself," Valarie assured him.
Once Valarie left the restaurant, she went directly to Nyla's place.
…
When Nyla saw Valarie, she was pleasantly surprised. "Valarie, what are you doing here?"
Valarie smiled. "I missed you, so I came by. Let me in first."
Nyla stepped aside to let her in. Once they were seated in the living room, Valarie took the file from her bag and handed it to Nyla.
Nyla took it with a puzzled expression. "What's this?"
As soon as Nyla opened it and read a few lines, her expression changed drastically. "Valarie, how do you have this?"
Seeing Nyla's serious demeanor, Valarie said casually, "Someone named Pete sent it to me and asked me to give it to you. Do you know him? What's in the file?"
The file contained evidence not only of Cyrus collaborating with Clement to scheme against Harris Pharmaceuticals but also of other criminal activities involving both of them.
As Nyla read, her frown deepened. She didn't hear the faint sound of the door lock turning.
It wasn't until she heard soft footsteps that she looked up in shock, her face turning pale when she saw Clark. Instinctively, she closed the file and coldly asked, "What are you doing here?"
Seeing her reach for her phone on the table, Clark said calmly, "Nyla, whether you contact Damon or call the police won't make a difference. I'm your husband. It's only natural for me to be here."
Ignoring his words, Nyla quickly unlocked her phone.
Clark was quicker. The moment she unlocked it, he snatched her phone away.
Nyla tried to grab it back, and the file fell to the floor. As it opened, Clark glanced down at it.

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....
