As Damon approached, Nyla frowned and instinctively stepped back, a wary look in her eyes. Was he planning to confront her because of Rebecca?
When they were just a few steps apart, Nyla watched as he suddenly raised his hand toward her.
Gritting her teeth, she warned, "Damon, if you dare lay a hand on me, I—"
Before she could finish, Damon pulled her close and asked, "Are you hurt?"
Nyla's eyes widened in surprise, but she quickly masked it with a cold reply, "No, let go of me!"
Even if she was injured, it was none of his business.
As she tried to push him away, he gently pressed a hand on her lower back where she had collided with the sink.
"Ow…" Nyla gasped in pain, glaring at Damon. "What are you doing? Let go—"
Before she could finish, he scooped her up. Startled, she wrapped her arms around his neck, her face paling even more.
Once the shock wore off, her anger flared. "Damon, what on earth are you doing? We've broken up! Put me down!"
Damon's expression remained impassive as if he hadn't heard her. He simply carried her and turned to leave.
Nathaniel, who had been watching in shock, quickly became angry. He stepped forward to block Damon. "Damon, are you out of your mind? What do you think you're doing? And what about Rebecca?"
Damon looked at him coldly. "She's just my ex. What do you want me to think of her?"
"Aren't you two back together?" Nathaniel pressed.
Damon's gaze turned icy. "You should ask her if we're back together."
With that, he ignored the stunned Nathaniel and walked away.

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....
