Chapter 320
Finally, Damon shifted his icy gaze from Nyla and turned to Gabriel. “Let’s go.”
Gabriel nodded and led Damon toward the office, leaving Spencer behind.
Once the two men had entered, Spencer turned to Nyla. “Ms. Jayston, don’t take Mr. Sumner’s words to heart. He actually-”
Before he could finish, Nyla interrupted, “Mr. Hogg, I won’t take it to heart. I’m just working at Prospectus Technology, not one of its employees. Besides, aside from any mistakes in my work, Mr. Sumner has no right to dictate how I should act.”
Spencer was at a loss for words and could only sigh in response.
A few minutes later, Gabriel and Damon emerged from the office.
Nyla ignored them completely and walked straight to her own office.
Damon’s expression darkened, but he remained silent.
After Damon left, Gabriel returned to Nyla’s desk. “Nyla, I’d like to talk to you.”
Without looking up, Nyla replied, “If it’s about what just happened, there’s no need to discuss it. I don’t think I did anything wrong.”
Nearby, Melody couldn’t help but eavesdrop, her curiosity piqued. Her instincts told her the conversation was related to Damon.
Gabriel smiled with a hint of helplessness. “You’re still as stubborn as ever. I’m not trying to lecture you. I just wanted to say that you don’t have to be so strong all the time. I can protect you.”
Nyla found his words a bit strange but couldn’t quite pinpoint why. She frowned and looked up at him. “No need. I can handle things on my own without troubling others.”
Gabriel’s hands clenched involuntarily as he smiled. “I’m not just anyone. I’m your brother.”
“Even so, I don’t need it. I’m going to take a nap now, so you should rest too,” Nyla said.
Cape To
Without waiting for Gabriel’s reaction, she pulled out a pillow and lay down
Gabriel stood by her desk for a few seconds before turning and heading back to his desk

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....
