Karter glowered, not expecting Tom to have discovered that. He took a deep breath before asking coldly, "What's your problem with the Sumner Group?"
Tom simply replied, "Because I'm tired of always being in someone else's shadow."
Karter remained silent, scowling.
Tom smiled. "You wouldn't want your wife to keep controlling you, would you? Help me, and I can help you seize control."
Although Karter was the CEO of the Basham Group, his wife held the shares. That was why he had gotten rid of his mistresses and begged her for forgiveness all these years after she found out about his affairs.
Now that his current mistress was pregnant and he intended for her to keep the child, it was clear that he was planning to seize the shares.
Tom watched Karter as if weighing his options, showing no rush for a response.
Karter was silent for a long moment.
Finally, he said, "Fine. I'll do it. But if you cross me, I'll make sure you regret it."
"Pleasure doing business with you, Mr. Basham," Tom replied.
The moment Karter left the office, he immediately pulled out his phone and called Damon.
"Mr. Sumner, Tom approached me today."
"I know," Damon replied, his tone as calm as ever.
"He wants me to swap the materials for your upcoming project. It seems like he's planning to sabotage it somehow," Karter informed him.
"Understood. Do as he says," Damon replied, his gaze cold.
"Got it, Mr. Sumner," Karter answered.
The call ended, and he wiped the sweat from his brow.

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....
