Before long, Spencer discovered that Clark was secretly meeting with a representative from the company Prospectus Technology intended to partner with next month.
He quickly reported, "Mr. Sumner, Mr. Clark is meeting with Mr. Maddock at Pineer for lunch today."
Damon's gaze turned icy. "Book a table."
"Understood," Spencer replied.
At noon…
When Clark arrived at Pineer, he ran into Damon, and his expression shifted slightly.
"Uncle Damon, what are you doing here?" he asked.
Damon raised an eyebrow and replied with a faint smile, "What's the matter? Just because you're here, does that mean I can't be?"
Clark's gaze hardened slightly, but he managed a smile. "It's just unexpected to run into you while having lunch."
"Quite a coincidence," Damon said, playing along.
They walked into the restaurant together.
As Clark watched Damon head toward Room 8, which he had reserved, his expression darkened. Just as Damon was about to reach the door, Clark stepped in front of him.
"Uncle Damon, what's the meaning of this?" he asked.
Noting the flicker of unease in Clark's eyes, Damon remained indifferent. "What's the problem?"
Clark gnashed his teeth. "I have a meeting with a client. It's not ideal for you to follow me. If you want to join me for lunch, we can reschedule."
"Are you overthinking this? I don't plan to have lunch with you," Damon clarified.
"Then why are you heading toward the room I reserved?" Clark questioned.

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....
