The man didn’t say a word. He walked silently up to Nyle and handed her a tuna melt sandwich.
The fact that he offered her food suggested he probably wasn’t planning to kill her–at least not right now.
Nyla took a deep breath to calm herself and looked up at the man. “Why have you kidnapped me? For money? Or something else? Are you following someone’s orders?”
When she mentioned the possibility of orders, she saw the man’s eyes widen sharply. She was certain now that he had been sent by someone who deeply hated her.
“Are you going to eat or not?” The man’s voice was rough and dold as he stared at her.
“I’ll pay you double whatever they offered. And the one who orchestrated this–it’s either Jordyn or Rebecca, right?” Nyla asked.
Aside from them, no one else had a motive to kidnap her.
Seeing the man’s expression change again, she knew she had guessed correctly.
“I can offer you double the benefit, just let me go-”
Before she could finish, the man slammed the plate onto the ground. The ceramic shattered, sending fragments flying, one of which cut into Nyla’s leg. Blood gushed out of the wound immediately.
“If you’re not going to eat, shut up. I won’t let you go, no matter what you promise!” yelled the man, Steven,
His girlfriend and child’s lives were still in Rebecca’s hands. There was no way he would let Nyla go.
After saying that, Steven turned to leave.
The basement door slammed shut, cutting off the last bit of light.
When Nyla saw that Steven had left without collecting the broken plate shards, she glanced down at her stomach. If she lost the baby, it would mean she was truly meant to be separated from it.
Determined, Nyla tilted her body sideways, causing the chair to topple over and crash to the ground.
The pain was intense, but she pushed it aside and used her knees to move toward the nearest shard of ceramic. She maneuvered her body into an awkward position to reach it.
Pressing her ear against the door, she strained to listen but heard no sounds.

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....
