It was Jayden's birthday tonight, and Brandon had only planned to drop off a gift and leave.
However, as soon as he had entered the private room, Jayden had pulled Michelle along to apologize to him.
After much persuasion, Brandon had reluctantly agreed to stay for the celebration. The group had drunk quite a bit, and someone had suggested they play a game.
After losing a round, Brandon had chosen "Dare". The group had urged him to kiss Michelle through a tissue. He had been about to refuse when Valarie stormed in, her face dark with displeasure.
…
Valarie's gaze was cold and filled with disappointment. "Brandon, I told you before that I wouldn't interfere with your friendships, but clearly, you've completely betrayed my trust."
If Brandon truly cared about her, he wouldn't keep hanging around Michelle with such unclear boundaries. His so-called friends wouldn't dare make such bold jokes at her expense.
"Valarie, it's just a game. I've already explained it to you. Do you really need to blow this out of proportion?" Brandon retorted.
Valarie let out a soft laugh, her tone dripping with irony. "You're right, it's not a big deal. I'm the one overthinking things. Go back and enjoy your game."
Without waiting for a response, she turned and walked swiftly toward the door.
Brandon instinctively wanted to follow, but Tom stepped in his way.
"Mr. Sumner, maybe it's best to let her cool off for now," he said.
"Get out of my way!" Brandon's expression turned icy as he glared at Tom.
Tom, unfazed, raised an eyebrow. "And if I don't?"
...
Valarie had just stepped out of the club when her phone rang.
The manager's voice came through urgently, "Mrs. Weir, Mr. Genge and Mr. Sumner are fighting!"
Valarie paused for a moment, then replied with a frown, "That's none of my business. Call the police."
She hung up, got into her car, and left without a second thought.
Brandon and Tom fighting had nothing to do with her.
...
Back at the club, Brandon and Tom were throwing punches, smashing several pieces of furniture in the process.

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....
