Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla) novel Chapter 679

Nathaniel turned his head and widened his eyes when he saw Nyla.

It was only recently that he learned she was alive and had returned with Damon's child.

However, he didn't care much about this. After all, he had already fallen out with Damon. Even if Nyla came back, they couldn't make amends.

He stared at Nyla for a few seconds before looking away, expressionless. "It's none of our business. There's no need to pay attention."

Even though Nathaniel's tone was indifferent, Rebecca noticed his grip on the cutlery tighten. Clearly, he wasn't as nonchalant as he pretended to be.

Rebecca set down her utensils and asked Nathaniel, "Don't you think it's unfair? Nyla came back unharmed, and she even had Damon's child, but we were the ones caught in his revenge. Especially you—the Preston Group almost went bankrupt.

"You've worked so hard over the past few years to keep things afloat, facing so much disdain and hardship."

Nathaniel sneered. "Rebecca, don't think I don't know what's going on in your head. You used me once five years ago. Do you think I'll let you use me again now?"

Seeing her intentions exposed, Rebecca smiled. "I'm just upset on your behalf. You don't have the means to fight Damon now anyway."

Nathaniel's eyes narrowed instantly. "Rebecca, trying to provoke me won't do you any good."

Rebecca knew that if they weren't in a restaurant right now, Nathaniel might have hit her like he used to.

"Nathaniel, don't forget—I just secured a big deal for the Preston Group. Mr. Nuttall likes me a lot. If you lay a hand on me again and he sees the marks, it might not end well for you," she warned.
