Nyla knew there was no way Harrison didn't realize she would be at a disadvantage once he accepted the money. But he took it anyway.
She had lost—not to the Sumners, but to Harrison.
She looked up at Richard, about to speak, when the door to the private room suddenly swung open.
Damon walked in, his expression cold as he stared at Richard. "Dad, I remember telling you not to bother her."
Richard's scowl deepened, and he replied icily, "Didn't you just say yesterday that we've cut ties? What does it matter to you if I bother her or not?"
Damon nodded. "You're right. In that case, Prospectus Technology will have issues with the Sumner Group too."
"This is outrageous! You're going to turn against the Sumner Group just for a woman?" Richard bellowed.
Damon remained silent, but his gaze spoke volumes.
From the moment Damon entered the room, Nyla only glanced at him once before ignoring him completely.
She fixed her eyes on Richard and said, "Mr. Richard, I'll withdraw the lawsuit as you requested. But one day, I will seek justice on my own terms."
With that, she turned to leave.
As she reached the door, Damon blocked her path. "If the Sumners bother you again, just call me, and I'll handle it."
Nyla looked at him, exasperated. "Mr. Summer, I thought I made myself clear last time. I don't want anything to do with you anymore."
Staring into her cold eyes, Damon replied quietly, "I'm not trying to get involved with you. I just don't want the Sumners to cause you any more trouble."
"Aren't you part of the Sumners?" Nyla shot back.

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....
