Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla) novel Chapter 921

Before Lydia could finish, Damon interrupted, "Lydia, these sandwiches are really good. Grab two more for me from the kitchen, please."

Lydia's attention was successfully diverted. She replied, "Sure, I'll get them right away."

Once she left, Nyla quickly walked over and sat across from Damon.

"If you're really not feeling well, don't push yourself," Damon said.

Nyla nodded. "I know."

After breakfast, the two headed to work.

Throughout the morning, Nyla tried to minimize her movements, staying seated as much as possible. Thankfully, it wasn't too exhausting.

Close to lunchtime, she received an unexpected call from Gabriel.

"Nyla, do you have time for lunch? I have something I'd like to discuss with you," Gabriel invited.

Nyla's tone turned cold. "What is it? Just say it over the phone. There's no need for us to meet."

A brief silence followed on the other end before Gabriel spoke again, his voice slightly somber. "Do you really dislike me this much?"

"I don't have time to entertain pointless questions. If that's all, I'll hang up now. I'm busy," Nyla replied.

For Gabriel, she could barely muster the energy to treat him like a stranger. She had no interest in further interaction.

"I wanted to talk about my mom and your father," Gabriel stated.

Hearing this, Nyla's brows furrowed tightly. "They've already divorced. There's nothing left to discuss. Tell Ms. Hackett this for me—if verbal warnings don't work, I'll be forced to take legal action."

With that, she ended the call, her mood sour for the rest of the day.

…

Gabriel set his phone down, his expression darkening.
