Cyrus scolded, “Look at what he’s done to Clark! If Clark hadn’t been so lucky, he might have died by now! He has to come and apologize to Clark, or we’ll call the policel”
Richard glared at him. “Family matters shouldn’t be aired out. If you dare to call the police, don’t blame me for disowning you as my son!”
Cyrus, breathing heavily with anger, pointed at Clark and said, “Dad, how can you be so blased? Damon is your son, but is Clark not your grandson? And Damon has already disowned you as his father, yet you’re still trying to help him?!”
Richard retorted, “Don’t forget it was Damon who helped you when your company was on the brink of bankruptcy several times!”
“I’m his brother. That’s what he should do!” Cyrus argued, his entitlement evident.
The argument between Richard and Cyrus grew more heated, while Clark, lying in bed with a cast, stared blankly out the window, lost in thought.
Not far from the window was a university.
As the sun set, young couples walked hand in hand across the campus. The evening glow was blood–red, casting long shadows.
Clark vaguely recalled the time he finally managed to ask Nyla out. He had wanted to hold her hand but had been too shy, carefully brushing against her fingers. When he finally mustered the courage to grasp her hand, his heart had been racing as if it might leap out of his chest.
After that, he never saw such a beautiful sunset again, and the intense desire to be with her gradually faded over time.
Perhaps he should have let her go the moment he cheated. At least then, it wouldn’t have ended like this. Suddenly, a shrill scream pierced through Cyrus and Richard’s argument, breaking Clark’s train of thought. “No, I don’t want to go to the operating room! Let me go! You’re all murderers!” A woman’s frantic voice filled the room, and Clark’s gaze turned icy.
He recognized the voice–it was Rebecca, the woman who had caused Nyla’s death.
Hate flashed in Clark’s eyes as he leaned on his crutch and headed outside.
Cyrus was startled by Clark’s sudden movement and quickly rushed to support him. “Clark, what are you doing? The doctor said you need to stay in bed for a month!”
Clark shrugged him off, replying coldly, “Stop pretending to be a loving father. Save that act for your illegitimate son outside.”

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....
