Chapter 782
Pedro nearly staggered back in anger.
“Take him away! Stop letting him spout nonsense here!” he barked.
Whether Jane was involved or not, the priority was to downplay the situation. If it hadn’t been for Theo’s foolishness, things might have already been smoothed over.

The more Pedro thought about it, the angrier he became. Once Damon and Nyla left, he was determined to teach Theo a lesson. The young man needed to know when to speak up— and when to stay quiet.
Jane trembled slightly, struggling to stay calm. Only she, Pauline, and Gabriel knew about this incident, and none of them would betray her. Thus, Theo had to be bluffing. There was no way he could know!
Theo pushed Quincy aside, saying, “Mom, I’m fine.”
He took out his phone, eyeing Jane with a cold smile. “Jane, everything you said to Gabriel by the rock garden? I recorded it. Let’s play it for everyone, shall we?”
Without waiting, he pressed play.
Instantly, Jane and Gabriel’s voices echoed through the room, plunging the atmosphere
into silence.
Pedro looked at Jane with profound disappointment. “Jane, did you really do this?”
Jane’s face turned pale, her clenched fists finally loosening. Under Pedro’s cold gaze, she slowly lowered her head. “Grandpa, I’m sorry.”
“Are you out of your mind? Why would you do something like this to Ms. Kinsey? Have you lost your senses?!” Pedro demanded.
Jane bit her lip, remaining silent.
Pedro turned to Damon, his expression filled with remorse. “Mr. Sumner, it’s my fault for not teaching my granddaughter better. I apologize on her behalf, and I hope Ms. Kinsey can forgive her this once.”
Upon seeing Pedro bow in apology, Jane’s heart twisted with guilt and regret. She quickly moved to help him up. “Grandpa, this was my mistake. I should be the one apologizing!”
Pedro pushed her aside. “Be quiet!”
Tears welled up in Jane’s eyes, and her heart ached.
Pedro was a proud man who had never bowed his head to anyone for as long as she coul remember. On his 70th birthday, of all days, he had to lower himself to a person half his age

The readers' comments on the novel: Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla)
More chapters please why stop updating...
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....
