Nyla and Damon came from entirely different worlds. At present, his interest in her seemed like just a fleeting impulse. He would eventually grow tired of her.
It was better to avoid the pain of abandonment than to start something that would inevitably end in disappointment.
After all, she wasn't an 18-year-old girl who might naively believe that Damon would marry her. Given his background, he would surely choose a partner of equal standing in the future.
Nyla didn't want the stigma of having seduced her husband's uncle, nor did she want to suffer another blow to her love life.
She pushed her inappropriate thoughts aside and headed to the bathroom for a shower.
Just as she was about to go to bed, her phone suddenly rang. Seeing it was Clark, she hesitated for a moment before answering.
"Nyla, I heard you called the police and had Dad arrested?" Clark's voice was filled with disbelief as if Nyla had committed a heinous crime.
She let out a light laugh, her eyes flashing with mockery. "Yes."
"Why did you do that? You know Dad only had you abducted to get that document, not to actually harm you!" Clark exclaimed.
"I'm really curious how you can say such shameless things with such confidence. Are you sure he didn't actually want me dead?" Nyla retorted.
If Pete hadn't discovered Cyrus' plans to harm her first, she might already be dead at the bottom of a cliff.
"Of course. You're my wife and his daughter-in-law. How could he really want to hurt you? Besides, I'm disabled now because I tried to save you. Considering my condition, you should go explain things to the police and get Dad released!" Clark demanded.
"But as far as I know, your legs don't seem to be disabled. Why don't you go ahead and cripple yourself, and then I'll consider whether or not to let him go?" Nyla suggested sarcastically.

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....
