Nyla managed to steel her heart and not want the child. What more could she feel for him?
Damon left.
A short while later, Valarie walked in, looking hesitant to speak.
Nyla pretended not to notice and forced a smile. "Valarie, you've worked hard today. You should head home. I'll manage on my own."
Valarie sat down by the bed. After a moment of thought, she spoke softly. "When Damon left earlier, his face was ashen. He must really care about you."
Nyla looked down, her expression unchanged. "Before Rebecca showed up, I really cared about him too. Valarie, there's no point in trying to persuade me. It's over between us. I just want to focus on my studies for now and not think about anything else."
Valarie knew Nyla was a determined person and sighed. "There's some soup in the thermos. Remember to drink it later. I'm heading out now. If you need anything, just call me."
"Got it," Nyla replied.
As Valarie went downstairs, she saw Damon still waiting by his car. Knowing he was waiting for her, she walked over to him.
"She must have been in a lot of pain during the procedure today?" Damon's voice was hoarse, his features partly obscured in the darkness, looking somewhat defeated.
Valarie's gaze was cold. "What do you think?"
Seeing the anger in her eyes, Damon gave a wry smile. "I'm the one at fault."
"Good that you know," Valarie said sharply.
A silence fell between them.
Just as Valarie was about to leave in frustration, Damon suddenly said in a low voice, "Ms. Weir, Nyla doesn't want to see me. Could you help me take care of her during this time?"
Valarie scoffed. "I was going to take care of her regardless. Besides, you and Nyla are no longer together. It's not your place to ask this."
With that, she turned and walked away.

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....
