Chapter 302
Damon patted her head and said softly, “If I haven’t earned your complete trust, then I still haven’t done well enough.”
Nyla looked up at him, about to speak, when his phone suddenly rang.
“Did you change your ringtone?” she asked, noticing that Damon’s phone sounded different from usual.
Damon didn’t answer. He picked up his phone and walked aside to take the call.
For some reason, Nyla felt a wave of unease wash over her, and she couldn’t help but frown.
Soon, Damon ended the call and returned to her.
“I have to go out for a bit. You should go to sleep,” he said.
He turned to leave, but Nyla instinctively grabbed his hand. “Is it something important? Can you stay and keep me company? I…”
She struggled to find a reason to keep him around.
Was it just her inexplicable anxiety?
The reason seemed a bit absurd even to her.
Damon’s gaze softened, and he nodded. “If you’re scared, I can have the driver pick up Valarie to keep you company.”
Nyla opened her mouth, then slowly shook her head. “No, it’s fine. Just come back as soon as you can.”
Noticing something was wrong with her, Damon suddenly hugged her tightly, as if trying to her.
“Don’t overthink it. Get some rest,” he coaxed.
“Okay,” Nyla replied.
Damon didn’t linger and quickly left.
It wasn’t until his figure disappeared through the door that Nyla bit her lip and looked away.

The new ringtone had made her unaccountably uneasy Damon’s previous ringtone had been the default one from his phone, but tonight it was a piano piece. Usually, only someone important would have a special ringtone.
“He didn’t come back last night,” the maid replied.
The maid nodded. “Yes. I saw the living room light was on when I got up in the middle of the night. I saw you sleeping on the sofa and didn’t want to wake you. I was worried you might catch a cold, so I covered you with a blanket.”

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....
