Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla) novel Chapter 928

After dinner, Nyla played with Mason for a while before asking Lydia to prepare him for bed. She stayed up in the living room, engrossed in a book, waiting for Damon to return.

…

Ruby went to the police station, only to be told she couldn't see Sullivan. She tried asking about the situation but couldn't gather any information.

Frustrated and helpless, she returned home.

That night, she tossed and turned, unable to find restful sleep.

The following morning, she woke up feeling heavy and groggy.

When Nyla saw her tired eyes and dark circles in the lab, she asked, "You didn't sleep well?"

"No," Ruby admitted.

"Because of Sullivan?" Nyla pressed.

Ruby hesitated before nodding. "I went to see him last night, but I couldn't. I don't even know what's going on."

After a brief pause, Nyla said, "Ruby, have you considered that you might be... a bit too concerned about him?"

"Nyla, he's saved me twice. How can I not care?" Ruby replied firmly.

"I get it. But this situation is out of your hands," Nyla said with a sigh.

She had asked Damon about it last night.

Sullivan had embezzled a significant portion of the company's drug research fund—an amount large enough to guarantee a lengthy prison sentence.

Ruby's face turned pale. "I understand. I just want to do what I can."

"There's only so much you can do," Nyla said gently. "You can send him what he needs later, but there's not much else you'll be able to do."
