Damon was silent for a few seconds before telling Spencer, "Have him come to my office at 10:00 a.m."
Spencer nodded. "Got it."
Just as he was about to leave, Damon suddenly called him back. "Wait, go to the pharmacy and pick up some stomach medicine to send to the lab."
Spencer knew exactly who it was for without needing to be told—no one else in the lab had the privilege of Damon personally sending someone to buy medicine for them.
"Okay, I'll head there right away," he answered.
…
Nyla had just arrived at the lab when Spencer walked in.
"Ms. Kinsey, this is the medicine that Mr. Sumner asked me to get for you," he informed her.
Seeing the bag in Spencer's hand, filled with various stomach medications, she couldn't help but chuckle. "Mr. Hogg, I'm fine. I just overate this morning."
Spencer handed her the bag. "Ms. Kinsey, just accept it. This is Mr. Sumner's kind gesture, and I need a good reason to report back."
"Alright, please thank him for me," Nyla said, accepting the medicine.
"It's best to thank him in person at lunch today. Your work is important, so I won't keep you any longer." With that, Spencer turned and left.
Nyla looked down at the bag filled with stomach medicine and recalled how every time she thanked Damon, it seemed to involve him either placing her on his lap to kiss her or hinting that he needed a wife. It gave her a bit of a headache.
Just as she put the stomach medicine away, Ruby walked into the office.
Ruby looked pale and exhausted. When she met Nyla's gaze, she instinctively looked away.
Nyla didn't initiate a conversation either, merely grabbing her notebook and heading to the lab.
A few minutes later, Ruby stood beside her, and they began their work for the day.

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....
