The real estate agent was stunned when he heard Nyla’s commission offer to sell a house. “Ms. Jayston, are you sure the house is in Karlinan?”
He was puzzled. If Nyla had a property in Karlinan, why did she need the one–bedroom apartment he had found for her in the old neighborhood?
“Yes,” she replied. “I’ll give you the address and the code. Bring potential buyers to see it, and I’ll give you 3- % of the sale price as commission.”
Nyla knew that real estate agents typically took 1-3% of a property’s sale price as commission. Given that the fully renovated house in Karlinan could fetch around 1.1-1.2 million dollars, the agent stood to make a decent sum.
“Ms. Jayston, I have a question. If you already have a place, why did you choose to live in the old neighborhood instead of Karlinan?”
Nyla didn’t want to complicate matters, so she replied flatly, “It’s not mine. It belongs to a friend.”
“Oh, got it. Send me the address and code, and I’ll take some photos to list the property tomorrow.
“Thanks.”
After hanging up, Nyla found the property deed and sent the unit number and code to the agent, who responded with an “OK” emoji. Nyla then closed the chat.
Noticing that Valarie had updated her social media, Nyla clicked on it. It was a simple post with a black image and a caption: [Started with love, ended with heartbreak].
Nyla pursed her lips. After a few moments of thought, she called Valarie. After several attempts with no answer, she started to worry. She then remembered that they had previously shared their locations via phone, so she quickly opened the location–sharing app and saw that Valarie was at her family home. Relieved, she decided to change and go check on her.
Just as she stood up, Valarie called back.
nak up with Tom?
Nyla answered quickly. “Valarie, are you okay? Did you really break up with Tom?”
Valarie sniffled but sounded determined. “You’re right. Being single again is great. Tomorrow, I’m going to the university to find a younger boyfriend.”
one.

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....
