After ending the call, Clark called Jordyn. "Where are you now?"
Upon hearing the suppressed anger in Clark's voice, Jordyn's anxiety spiked. She bit her lip and instinctively lied, "I'm out shopping... What's wrong?"
"Get home right now. I need to talk to you!" Clark snapped.
"Okay…" Jordyn replied.
Quickly, she contacted the investigator she had hired to look into Clark, her voice filled with tension. "What did you find out?"
"I was just about to call you. Other than going to the hospital for a check-up, Clark hasn't done anything unusual," the investigator reported.
"What?!" Jordyn's face went pale. Given Clark's recent strange behavior, she immediately concluded that he must be onto her.
"I understand," she said before hanging up.
Jordyn rushed to her bedroom, hastily gathering her jewelry, cards, and some clothes. She stuffed them into a suitcase and hurried out of the house.
…
On the way to Jordyn's place, Clark received a call from Michael.
"Mr. Sumner, the report from your and Ms. Jayston's previous tests was indeed tampered with. The doctor said Jordyn paid him a large sum to change the diagnosis, swapping your test results with hers. The actual infertile person is you..." Michael reported.
By the end, his voice had dropped, clearly fearing Clark's reaction.
To his surprise, Clark's demeanor remained calm as he instructed, "Got it. Find out where Jordyn is now. If she's out, bring her back to her place."
"Understood," Michael replied.

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....
