Chapter 272
After a few moments of silence, Damon answered coldly, head over right after my meeting”
Nyla arrived at the top floor at noon, only to be stopped by Spencer.
“Ms. Jayston, Mr. Sumner isn’t in his office right now,” he informed her.
Ish
she still in a meeting?” she asked.
Spencer shook his head, his gaze fixed on her. “No. He got a call from Mr. Richard this morning. He went back to the Summer residence and hasn’t returned yet.”
Nyla’s heart sank. She didn’t need to guess–it was clearly about what had happened earlier that morning
“I see. Thank you for letting me know, Mr. Hogg,” she replied.
Noticing that her expression remained unchanged, Spencer frowned. “Ms. Jayston, aren’t you going to go over there?”
“Even if I did, it wouldn’t help. Besides, seeing me would only make the Sumners more upset,” Nyla answered calmly.
“This whole situation started because of you. Shouldn’t you stand by Mr. Sumner and face it together?” Spencer’s gaze was filled with disapproval, his tone turning cold.
It wasn’t his place to meddle in Damon’s personal life, but Nyla’s attitude made him feel that Damon’s efforts were going unappreciated. Damon was standing up to his entire family for her, yet she seemed content to hide behind him rather than share the burden.
“Mr. Hogg, if he wanted me by his side, he would’ve asked me himself–not had you deliver the message. Nyla replied.
Already frustrated, Spencer’s response grew more blunt. “If that’s how you feel, then there’s nothing more
to say.”
With that, he turned and walked away.
Nyla wasn’t angry. She understood Spencer’s protective instincts toward Damon after working with him
for so many years.
As Nyla stepped out of the elevator, she bumped into Melody, who was on her way to lunch.
“Nyla, weren’t you supposed to have lunch with Mr. Sumner? How come you’re back so soon?” Melody asked, surprised.
“Something came up last minute. I’ll just order takeout,” Nyla replied.
Melody smiled and looped her arm through Nyla’s. “Why order takeout? Let’s go to the cafeteria together!”
Nyla wanted to refuse, but before she could say anything, Melody had already pulled her back into the
elevator.

Meanwhile, Damon was kneeling in the Sumner residence’s living room as Richard struck his back with a
thick cane

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....
