Damon's expression remained indifferent. "I've said it before: once you personally apologize to Nyla, Prospectus Technology and the Preston Group will resume their cooperation."
Nathaniel gritted his teeth, clearly frustrated that Damon was still fixated on this issue after so long. His face darkened. "Damon, after all these years of brotherhood, must you make things so ugly?"
Rebecca's expression flickered briefly. Sitting nearby with her head lowered, she was not noticed by either of the men.
"You made things ugly yourself. Apologize, or leave now. Prospectus Technology will never work with the Preston Group again," Damon stated dismissively.
Damon's cold demeanor felt like a personal affront to Nathaniel as if Damon were disregarding their years of friendship entirely. In that case, Nathaniel decided it was pointless to make things harder for himself.
He stood up and looked down at Damon, his voice icy. "Damon, you will regret this. I won't come begging again, and we are no longer brothers!"
He turned and walked out.
Rebecca glanced at Damon hesitantly. Seeing his cold gaze, she involuntarily shrank and followed Nathaniel out.
…
Once in the car, Nathaniel's expression remained a scowl. He slammed the steering wheel and cursed under his breath, unable to believe that Damon would jeopardize their long-standing brotherhood over Nyla.
Noticing his anger, Rebecca bit her lip and spoke softly. "Nathaniel, maybe you should apologize to Nyla... After all, you and Damon have been friends for so long, and the cooperation between the Preston Group and Prospectus Technology is very important..."
Under Nathaniel's frosty gaze, her voice grew quieter until it trailed off completely.

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....
