Damon blinked and nodded. "Yeah, maybe it's just someone who looks a lot like your mom."
Nyla didn't dwell on the topic any longer. She placed the photo back in the album and closed it. "I'm heading to the supermarket to pick up some essentials. Want to come with me?"
"Sure," Damon agreed.
After putting the album back in the drawer, Nyla and Damon left the house together.
At the supermarket, Nyla walked ahead, picking out items while Damon pushed the cart behind her. Their attractive pairing caught the attention of several shoppers.
Once they had finished gathering the essentials, they approached the spice aisle.
Nyla turned to Damon and asked, "Should I buy some spices and groceries? We could cook dinner at my dad's place tonight."
"Sounds good to me," Damon replied.
"What do you feel like eating?" Nyla asked.
"Anything's fine," Damon answered.
Nyla stared at him, slightly annoyed. "You've been distracted since we entered the store. Is there something on your mind?"
Damon shook his head. "No, I'm just thinking about steamed fish. Let's pick one out later."
Seeing that he wasn't going to share, Nyla frowned but decided to let it go. She turned and walked into the spice aisle to begin selecting what they needed.
Watching her, Damon grew thoughtful. He was certain he had met Nyla's mother before.
According to Nyla, Emerald had moved abroad when Nyla was in elementary school.
Given that Damon had lived abroad until he was 15, he might have crossed paths with Emerald. Yet, he couldn't quite recall where he had seen her.

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....
