Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla) novel Chapter 416

Nathaniel called his secretary into the office and said coldly, "Contact Steven and have him prepare to attack Nyla."

The secretary, Troy Cantrill, noticed the cracked screen of his phone on the floor and replied, "Understood, Mr. Preston. I'll handle it right away."

He picked up the phone, left the office, and immediately ordered a new one to be delivered.

…

When Steven received the call, he was at a prenatal check-up with his girlfriend.

Learning that he needed to attack Nyla, he hesitated. After all, Nathaniel had only instructed him to scare Nyla, not to harm her.

Noticing Steven's hesitation, Troy said coldly, "Mr. Abney, do you think that money was easy to come by?"

When Nathaniel first approached Steven, he was struggling to meet a request for 80,000 dollars from his girlfriend's parents. They had threatened to force her to have an abortion if he couldn't come up with the money.

Nathaniel had found and given him 150,000 dollars to track and harass Nyla. Nathaniel had also disclosed that Nyla was the daughter of the owner of Harris Pharmaceuticals, whose accident had killed his grandfather, making her an enemy.

In reality, Steven knew Nyla wasn't responsible for the accident. After the incident, Harris Pharmaceuticals went bankrupt but provided compensation.

For the sake of his child, however, he had reluctantly agreed to the task.

Now, being asked to attack Nyla, he deeply regretted having been so foolish.

"Mr. Cantrill, this is a crime. I'll return the money. I'm not doing this anymore," Steven said.
