Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla) novel Chapter 926

There was a sparkle in Brandon's eyes, his gaze softening as he looked at her. "Valarie, thank you."

His intense and heartfelt gaze made Valarie feel a little self-conscious. She looked away and said, "It's getting late. You should head home."

"Alright. You get some rest. Goodnight," he replied.

"Goodnight," she answered.

After watching Brandon's car disappear down the road, Valarie turned and went inside.

…

On his way back, Brandon received a call from his secretary, Charlie Jean.

"Mr. Sumner, I've been thinking about something, and I decided it's best to let you know," Charlie said.

"What is it?" Brandon asked.

"Last night, I was out for dinner and saw our marketing manager having a private meal with Mr. Genge. They seemed quite familiar with each other," Charlie reported.

Charlie explained that he had been attending a university reunion at a private restaurant when he unexpectedly spotted Huxley Lightner.

Huxley hadn't noticed him, but Charlie had debated whether to report the encounter.

Ultimately, he decided to inform Brandon, just in case Huxley was secretly meeting with Tom. That would be troublesome.

Brandon gripped the steering wheel tightly, his voice turning icy. "Understood. Don't mention this to anyone else."

Hearing the seriousness in Brandon's tone, Charlie knew he had done the right thing. "Understood, Mr. Sumner. I won't tell anyone."

Charlie had been Brandon's secretary for years, and Brandon trusted his discretion.

"Good. That's all," Brandon said.

After hanging up, Brandon's expression turned grim.
