Nyla stiffened instantly, her heart pounding. Panic flashed in her eyes as her mind raced with countless possibilities.
Was Damon changing his mind?
Damon seemed to read her thoughts. His expression remained indifferent, though his tone was reassuring. "Don't worry. I'm not going back on my word."
At this, Nyla finally breathed a sigh of relief, though her heart still raced as she followed him into the study.
Damon walked to his desk and picked up a folder. He retrieved a property deed and a set of keys, handing them to her.
"I've already transferred ownership of this house," he told her. "You and Buddy can move in."
Nyla's eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at the deed and keys in his hand. She instinctively recoiled.
He was giving her a villa?
If someone had told her this moments ago, she would have thought they were crazy. Yet, here it was, happening in the most unbelievable way.
Confused, she struggled to understand his intentions. "Mr. Sumner, this is too generous. I can't accept it."
Damon looked at her calmly. "You've worked hard raising Buddy on your own these past few years, and I owe you for not protecting you both. Consider this my way of making amends. I promise I won't visit without your consent."
When Nyla tried to refuse again, he frowned. "Think about it. You can either accept the deed and keys, then move out, or continue staying here."
She bit her lip. "Mr. Sumner, you said you wouldn't threaten me again."
"I'm not threatening you. I'm just presenting you with a choice," he retorted.
"But I don't want to choose either option," she countered.
"Then, I'll choose for you," he announced.

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....
