Cindy was so agitated that her words were incredibly harsh as if she were finally releasing all the pent-up emotions of the past few years.
Richard was so furious that his face turned purple. He trembled as he pointed at her before collapsing.
The maid was taken aback and hurriedly called for a doctor, also contacting Brandon.
With Clark missing, Damon unlikely to come, and neither Cyrus nor Cindy attending to Richard, there was no choice but to summon Brandon.
…
When Brandon arrived, Richard was still in surgery.
Cyrus and Cindy were there, their grim expressions revealing little emotion.
He greeted them briefly and then turned to the maid. "What happened? Why did Grandpa suddenly faint again?"
The maid glanced nervously at Cyrus and Cindy, hesitating to speak.
It was easy to infer that Richard's collapse was somehow related to them.
Brandon turned to Cyrus. "Uncle Cyrus, what's going on? What did you do to Grandpa?"
Cyrus remained silent, his gaze dark.
When Richard had fainted moments ago, a thought had crossed Cyrus' mind: maybe it wouldn't be so bad if Richard died. After all, he could inherit Richard's fortune if that happened.
Aside from Richard's shares, his cash and property alone would be enough for them to live comfortably for the rest of their lives.

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....
