Nyla bit her lip. "It's not what you think! Don't jump to conclusions!"
"Oh? What do you think I'm thinking? Tell me," Damon coaxed.
Nyla turned her head away, clearly unwilling to answer.
Damon took her hands, his movements growing more urgent. "Not going to say?"
The water in the bathtub rippled in circles.
By the end of it, Nyla was too exhausted to move, but Damon still wouldn't stop. It seemed like he wouldn't let her go unless she answered.
Finally, Nyla gritted her teeth, her frustration and embarrassment clear as she asked, "I'm tired. Can I just sleep now?"
Damon leaned down and kissed her lips, then asked gently, "Where did you put it?"
"In the back of the closet..." Nyla replied, adding without hesitation, "And it's for you."
For the rest of the night, she regretted saying those words.
Damon kept flipping her over, persistently asking her who the clothes were really for. It wasn't until dawn that he finally let her go.
Exhausted, Nyla could barely keep her eyes open. The moment her head hit the pillow, she fell asleep.
…
Nyla woke up at 12:30 p.m.
Glancing at the time, she quickly sat up, then collapsed back onto the bed.
After a moment, she called the HR department at Prospectus Technology to request leave, only to be told that Damon had already taken care of it for her.
Nyla sighed in relief. Ruby and Leon could handle the experiment for the day, so she sent a quick message to Ruby and set her phone down to go back to sleep.
She didn't get up until nearly 2:00 p.m.

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....
