“Buddy, Uncle Oliver is always so kind to you. He would never hurt you, and I would never let anyone harm you either. No matter what, you are the most important person in my life,” Nyla reassured.
Mason’s once–downcast eyes lit up. “Even more important than Uncle Oliver?”
“Of course. No matter who I’m with, you’ll always be my number one,” Nyla replied.
Mason hugged her tightly. “I love you the most too, Mom.”
Nyla gently patted his back, sensing he had noticed the changes between her and Oliver and felt insecure. As smart as Mason was, he was still almost five years old. Without a father figure growing up, it was natural for him to be more sensitive than other children.
Nyla silently vowed to spend more time with him, ensuring he felt secure.
After getting Mason to sleep, Nyla returned to the living room, intending to read for a bit. Just then, her phone rang. It was Edgar.
“Nyla, Mr. Sumner’s secretary reached out today. They’re planning a seminar for their company’s R&D team and asked if you could share some of your experience. I’ve already agreed on your behalf. They‘ pick you up from the lab at noon this Friday,” Edgar informed her.
Nyla pressed her lips together. Seeing Damon again, she knew it would be hard to avoid future encounters.
Still, she wasn’t looking to rekindle anything. Since he didn’t remember her, running into him shouldn’t be an issue.
“Okay, I understand,” she replied.
After hanging up, Nyla picked up her book but was unable to focus. Her biggest fear now was that Damon might one day learn about Mason and try to take him away.
Frustrated, she set the book down and took a deep breath, trying to calm herself.
Mason had been with her all these years. He had no emotional attachment to Damon, so even if Damon tried to claim him, it wouldn’t be easy.
Still, the thought gnawed at her. She tossed and turned all night, finally falling asleep just before dawn. Even then, her dreams were haunted by the fear that Damon had discovered Mason’s existence and secretly taken him, hiding him somewhere she couldn’t find.
The nightmare startled her awake.

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....
