Meanwhile, Clark received word that Nyla had left Damon's villa with Mason.
He smirked. "Looks like Lady Luck is on my side."
He had been worried about how to get into Damon's villa to abduct Mason, but now, with Nyla moving out and Damon away on a business trip, it was the perfect opportunity.
"When do you want us to make a move?" the person on the line asked.
"Tonight. We'll exchange the child for the money," Clark replied.
After hanging up, Clark got up and poured himself a glass of red wine, smiling to himself. Soon, Damon would be begging to hand over his shares.
...
As evening approached, Nyla finalized a list of potential houses to visit in person the next morning.
Finally pulling her gaze from the computer, Nyla saw Mason walk over and hug her arm. "Mommy, I'm hungry."
Nyla glanced at the clock and realized it was already past 6:00 p.m.
"I'm sorry, Buddy! I got so caught up that I lost track of time. I'll have someone bring us dinner right away," she said.
She ordered two dinner deliveries, then stood up to stretch, grabbing her toiletries from her suitcase. She planned to shower and rest after dinner—she hadn't slept well the night before, too anxious about leaving.
Soon, there was a knock at the door.
"Hello, room service."
Nyla was surprised. That was fast!
She walked to the door and looked through the peephole, seeing someone in a hotel uniform holding two dinner trays.

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....
