Clark’s expression was tense, filled with anger. He knew Cyrus could definitely follow through on his threats. After all, Cyrus had never cared about him.
Finally, he called Michael, his voice cold. “Don’t take any action against Clement for now.”
Hanging up, he glared at Cyrus. “You can leave now.”
Cyrus‘ gaze darkened. “One day, you will understand that everything I do is for your own good.”
Clark didn’t reply. Instead, he picked up a file, pretending he hadn’t heard anything.
There was a flash of coldness in Cyrus‘ eyes at Clark’s indifferent face before he turned and quickly left.
Michael was already on his way to the subsidiary company when Clark’s call came. Finding the situation inexplicable, he turned back. Just as he entered the office, a chill ran down his spine, as if he had stepped into an icy wasteland. “Mr. Sumner, regarding Clement-”
“Don’t worry about it. Just spread the news that it was Lucia who filmed the video.”
Seeing Clark’s cold expression, Michael dared not ask further questions. He nodded before leaving.
When Lucia arrived at work in the morning, she immediately felt the odd glances from others. Especially in the R&D department, none of her colleagues struck up a conversation with her. Every time she tried to speak, they either seemed too busy or intentionally ignored her, clearly isolating her.
It wasn’t until she went to the restroom that she heard voices inside discussing her.
“Lucia usually acts nice and innocent, but who knew she was so malicious behind our backs? She actually filmed that video to slander Nyla. From now on, who would dare to associate with her?”
“Heh, no wonder Nyla was at odds with her from day one at work. Looks like she knew her true colors.”
“Better keep our distance from her in the future. Who knows? She might snap a video of us and post it online just because she doesn’t like us.”
Listening to the gossip, Lucia was furious beyond measure. Didn’t Clement promise he would handle this? Why did everyone in the company know it was her doing?
Right, it must be Nyla!
“Nyla, are you spreading rumors in the company that I filmed the video of forcing Kenneth to kneel?”
Seeing Lucia’s agitated state, Nyla remained composed. “You did something shameful. Shouldn’t you feel guilty after it’s exposed? How are you still boldly accusing me like this?”

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....
