“Mr. Sumner, if you no longer love Nyla, please let her go, considering the eight years of your relationship.
“Don’t continue clinging to a mistress while refusing to divorce her, draining whatever little love is left between you.”
With that, Valarie turned and left without caring how unpleasant Clark’s expression became.
Clark’s fingers holding the phone turned faintly white, his gaze heavy and cold. His phone kept ringing. and he walked to the stairwell to answer.
“What is it?”
Jordyn’s voice sounded grave from the phone. “Clark, I have something important to tell you.”
“I’m busy right now.” Just as Clark was about to hang up, something said on the other end froze him in place. After several seconds, he spoke in a low voice. “I’ll come see you shortly.”
Back in the hospital room, Valarie saw that Nyla had woken up and quickly approached her bedside.” Nyla, I’ve already asked for soup to be prepared for you. It should arrive soon. Just rest a little longer.”
“Okay.”
Not long after, Clark pushed open the door and entered the room.
Seeing his grim expression, Valarie sneered. “Mr. Sumner, finished chatting with your mistress?”
Clark frowned at her, clearly displeased. If Valarie hadn’t been Nyla’s friend, he would have dealt with the Weirs long ago for speaking to him like that.
“Nyla, there’s a contract issue at the company. I need to go back to handle it. I’ll come back after it’s resolved,” Clark told Nyla.
Nyla lay with closed eyes, not responding, clearly uninterested in engaging with him.
Beside her, Valarie mocked, “Is it really a company issue, or is it something with Jordyn? Mr. Sumner, you should know in your heart.”
Clark looked coldly at her. “Valarie, because you’re Nyla’s friend, I’ve been tolerant of you. If you don’t want the Weirs to suffer bankruptcy, stop challenging my limits again and again.”
Maybe Valarie had been working behind the scenes to incite Nyla’s resistance to him. Upon thinking that, Clark’s anger flared, his gaze darkening even more.
Hearing him threaten Valarie, Nyla frowned and opened her eyes to look at him. “If you’re leaving, just go. Don’t bother coming tonight. Valarie is here.”
Her detachment pierced Clark. “Nyla, it really is a company matter that’s forcing me to leave.”
Nyla couldn’t help but smile, suppressing the bitterness in her heart. “No need. He’s not worth me ruining myself.”

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....
