Seeing Nyla's indifferent gaze, Damon realized that continuing the discussion tonight would be futile.
"Then get some rest. We'll talk again tomorrow," he said.
"There's no need to talk, Mr. Sumner. Please don't come back to disturb my peaceful life," Nyla replied coldly.
The chill, combined with a hint of disdain in Nyla's eyes, struck Damon like a heavy blow, leaving his face pale.
"Then I'll... leave for now. If you feel unwell, just call me," he offered.
Nyla did not respond. She simply walked to the door and opened it.
Damon pressed his lips together, standing in the living room for a moment before sighing and leaving.
After closing the door, Nyla leaned against it, exhaling softly as her emotions churned.
Downstairs, Damon's face was stormy with anger.
"Bring Rebecca to me!" he roared.
…
Less than an hour later, two men in black suits brought Rebecca into Damon's villa.
Damon sat on the sofa, his gaze cold and filled with rage.
Rebecca had never seen him like this before and was trembling with fear. Her voice quivered as she spoke. "Damon... I…"
"Rebecca, the biggest regret I have now is being with you back then," Damon said.
Rebecca turned pale, tears welling up in her eyes. "Damon... do you really hate me that much?"
"I don't hate you. I just find you disgusting," he spat.
Rebecca trembled, unable to meet his gaze.
"I won't sign it no matter what. You owe me a life!" she cried.
Damon's eyes narrowed, his aura growing cold.
Everyone else in the room held their breath, knowing that attracting Damon's attention while he was furious was akin to courting death.
Just as the room fell into a tense silence, the villa's front door was suddenly flung open.
Nathaniel burst in, looking anxious. Seeing that Rebecca was unharmed, he breathed a sigh of relief and glared at Damon.
"Damon, what is the meaning of having your men suddenly take Rebecca away?" he demanded.
Damon looked up, his voice cold. "Why don't you ask her yourself what tonight's drugging was all about?"

The readers' comments on the novel: Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla)
More chapters please why stop updating...
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....
