If Rebecca didn't agree, Nathaniel would simply drug her and send her over.
She had tried to escape before, but each time, he had caught her and responded with brutal beatings. After enduring this repeatedly, she gradually became numb to it.
She had never imagined that the man who once claimed to love her, who promised never to let her get hurt, would transform into the monster he was now.
Over the past five years, she finally understood why Damon hadn't harmed her when he discovered she was responsible for Nyla's fall into the sea. Instead, he had forced her to marry Nathaniel.
He truly was ruthless!
Rebecca had thought she would be tormented by Nathaniel until her death. She had never expected that Nyla was still alive—not only alive but also the mother of Damon's child!

When Cyrus rushed to the hospital room, Richard was preparing to rest, with a maid sitting nearby to watch over him.
"Dad, Clark's in trouble…" Cyrus said.
Richard frowned and asked coldly, "What does that have to do with me? Figure it out yourself."
He recalled the last time he had listened to Clark. They had filmed a video together and posted it online, only to be immediately ridiculed. Former enemies laughed at his misfortune, while even those who were friendly called him foolish, which made him furious.

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....
