Damon looked at Nathaniel coldly and asked, "How do you know this?"
"Recently, Rebecca has been making secret calls behind my back. I checked her call records, and they mostly came from abroad," Nathaniel explained, his expression indifferent, as if discussing something that didn't concern him.
The office fell silent as Damon's eyes narrowed, weighing the trustworthiness of Nathaniel's words.
Feeling anxious, Nathaniel hurriedly added, "As long as you give me this project, I'll keep an eye on Rebecca's every move and report back to you daily."
"Nathaniel, Rebecca is your wife and the woman you've loved for so many years. Are you sure what you're saying is credible?" Damon asked.
Seeing the doubt and coldness in Damon's eyes, Nathaniel quickly replied, "I haven't been in love with Rebecca for a long time now. If it weren't for you forcing me to marry her five years ago, she wouldn't even be alive today!"
Damon's gaze turned even colder at Nathaniel's desperate attempt to distance himself from Rebecca. "Just leave. I don't need you to keep an eye on Rebecca either."
"What about the project…" Nathaniel probed, his eyes flickering with desire as they landed on the documents on the table.
Damon withdrew his hand and said with a straight face, "You can take it, but I don't want anyone to know about your visit to Prospectus Technology today."
"Don't worry. I won't mention it to anyone," Nathaniel promised.
Damon did not respond and flipped open other documents, clearly signaling that it was time for Nathaniel to go.
Not wanting to offend him, Nathaniel quickly took the contract and left in a hurry.
Once the office door closed, Damon set down the files, a complex emotion crossing his face.
He had once felt a strong kinship with Nathaniel—they often shared similar thoughts. However, ever since Rebecca returned to the country, they had grown further apart, leading to the situation they faced today.
Not wanting to dwell on it, Damon called Spencer back into the office. "Investigate Rebecca and look into the people she's been in contact with abroad. I want a detailed report in three days."

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....
