200,000,000 dollars! Damon had spent that amount just to buy her a piece of jewelry!
Rebecca couldn't help but turn to Nyla with a triumphant smile. It was clear now that Damon's greatest love was her, and Nyla didn't even compare.
She had expected to see resentment or jealousy in Nyla's eyes but was surprised when Nyla simply met her gaze calmly before looking away.
Rebecca frowned, feeling as though she was hitting a brick wall. Nyla must be pretending to be calm—she was probably seething with jealousy!
Soon, someone came to collect Damon's signature and process the payment.
After completing the transaction, the staff brought over all the jewelry Damon had bid on, with The Lone Tear on top.
When Damon opened the jewelry box, The Lone Tear sparkled brilliantly under the lights, drawing everyone's attention.
Although the auction was over, most people stayed behind, their eyes glued to the piece of jewelry in Damon's hands. Some even wondered if he was going to propose to Rebecca with it.
Valarie looked extremely displeased to see the jewelry she wanted go to Damon and be given to someone she disliked.
"What kind of spell did Rebecca cast on Damon? 200,000,000 dollars just like that! The thought of that jewelry hanging around her neck makes me so mad!" Valarie hissed.
If anyone other than Damon and Clark had bought the jewelry, she wouldn't have been this upset.
Nyla whispered to Valarie, "Don't be angry. Think about it—he spent 200,000,000 dollars on a piece that's only worth 10,000,000 dollars. Doesn't that make it seem less worthwhile? Besides, only a fool would spend that much on jewelry."
For Nyla, no matter how much she liked it, it wasn't worth considering once the price exceeded its value. For Damon, with his wealth, spending 200,000,000 dollars to win Rebecca's affection might be worth it.
Valarie snorted and glanced at the jewelry Damon was holding again, unable to hold back a smile. "You're right. I'd think the jewelry was beautiful at 10,000,000 dollars, but at 200,000,000 dollars, it's just a pile of rocks. I wouldn't be the sucker who spends that much!"

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....
