“It seems I’ve overestimated your kindness. After all, your son cheated first, yet you splash water on your daughter–in–law. Such a bizarre mother–in–law is indeed rare.”
With each word Damon uttered, Cindy’s expression darkened further. In the end, it turned icy.
“Damon, this is a family matter. As an outsider, it’s best you not interfere.”
Damon arched an eyebrow. “I wasn’t planning to interfere, but don’t you think it’s too much to bully a young girl like this?”
Cindy only dared to be so audacious because she knew the Jaystons were bankrupt. Even if she treated Nyla harshly, they couldn’t do much to her.
Cindy gritted her teeth in anger. “Too much? Just because Clark has a woman on the side, she throws a fit, moves out, and even talks about divorce. Who’s really being too much?”
“Isn’t Clark at fault for the affair in the first place? It’s the Sumners who wronged Nyla, not the other way around. If you can’t see this, I don’t think Clark should continue working at the Sumner Group.”
Cindy paled, trembling uncontrollably. “Damon, whose side are you on?”
“I’m on neither side. I’m just advising you to be a kinder person if you want your son to inherit the Sumner Group.”
Under Damon’s icy gaze, Cindy took a deep breath, picked up her bag, and left.
“Uncle Damon, thank you… for today…”
Damon turned to look at Nyla. He briefly glanced at her wet clothes stuck to her chest, then casually averted his gaze.
“You don’t call me Uncle Damon for nothing. It’s the least I should do. Let me take you home. You’re in no condition to catch a cab right now.”
With that, he turned and headed toward the door,
Nyla followed his gaze and glanced down. Her soaked white shirt had become nearly transparent, revealing a tantalizing hint of cleavage. She bit her lip and subconsciously covered herself, feeling her cheeks flush.
In the car, Nyla sat pressed against the door, trying to minimize her presence.
Thankfully, Damon remained engrossed in his documents, not sparing even a glance her way, which put her at ease.
When the car stopped at the entrance of The Fleur, Nyla prepared to get out when Damon suddenly spoke. “If you want to divorce Clark, I can introduce you to divorce lawyers.”
The inside of the car fell quiet for several seconds before Nyla spoke softly. “Thank you, Uncle Damon.
When I need it, I will come to you for help.”

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....
