"I thought you were planning to never speak to me again," Damon said, gripping Nyla's chin and forcing her to look at him.
Nyla slapped his hand away, her voice icy. "Mr. Sumner, there's nothing to discuss between us. What you're doing now is sexual harassment. If you don't want me to call the police, let me go right— Mmph!"
Before she could finish, Damon kissed her.
Nyla froze for a moment, then bit him hard, the taste of blood filling her mouth.
Damon let her go, his expression darkening. "Are you part dog?"
Seeing his lower lip bleeding, Nyla sneered. "If you dare lay a hand on me again, this will just be the beginning."
Damon wiped the blood from his mouth and raised an eyebrow. "You just accused me of sexual harassment. I thought I should live up to the charge. Otherwise, what's the point?"
"Can you let me go now?" Nyla asked.
"I will, as long as you promise to stay away from Gabriel," Damon replied.
Nyla nodded. "Fine. I'll agree as long as you keep your distance from Rebecca."
Damon's smile froze, and he frowned. "Nyla, I told you, give me three months."
"And I told you, no. I won't wait for you. From the moment you lied to me, it was over between us," Nyla insisted.
"You heard how nasty your stepmother was today. If I hadn't stepped in, you—" Damon began.
Nyla cut him off, her tone indifferent, "Speaking of that, if you hadn't meddled today, I could have handled it myself. Next time something like this happens, do me a favor and pretend you didn't see it. I don't want people to think we're still entangled. I won't be 'the other woman'."

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....
