"Drink the soup first. I'll think about what you said," Nyla replied.
"Nyla, my dad said that as long as you don't hand the evidence over to the police, you can ask for whatever compensation you want," Clark said.
Nyla placed the bowl on the table, her expression unreadable as she looked at Clark. "I said I would consider it. Focus on your recovery. I'll visit you again tomorrow."
After Nyla left, Clark called Cyrus, frustration evident in his voice. "She still hasn't agreed."
Cyrus sneered. "I told you the self-pity trick wouldn't work, but you wouldn't listen. Are you finally giving up?"
Earlier, Cyrus had planned to kill Nyla outright, but Clark suggested staging a self-pity act, pretending that he had been disabled while saving her. This was supposed to soften her heart and persuade her to destroy the evidence. But it had all been for nothing.
"I didn't expect her to be so heartless. Even with my legs ruined, she won't relent. She wants a divorce and won't destroy the evidence," Clark complained.
He was filled with anger and couldn't understand why Nyla's reaction was so different from what he had anticipated.
"It's because you were too indecisive. I've already got someone watching her. If she really intends to turn the evidence over to the police, I'll make sure she disappears completely," Cyrus stated.
Clark took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with a hint of ruthlessness.
If the evidence was handed over to the police, not only would Cyrus face jail time, but he would also be implicated. Since Nyla was so merciless, showing no sentiment, he had to think about himself.
"Alright," Clark said.

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....
