"Mr. Genge, since the letter has been delivered, I'll take my leave," said the Sumner Group's legal representative as he walked out.
Before he was even out of the office, the sound of ripping paper echoed through the room.
Once the Sumner Group's legal representative disappeared through the doorway, Pierre cautiously glanced at Tom and asked, "Mr. Genge, what should we do now?"
Tom's expression was icy. "I merely reported what I heard—that the Sumner Group was using substandard construction materials. How is that slander? Tell the legal team to prepare for the case."
Pierre's eyes lit up. "Understood. I'll let them know right away."
When the office fell silent again, Tom picked up his phone and dialed Karter.
"Mr. Basham, teaming up with the Sumner Group to target me—how clever. I won't let this slide. In less than an hour, all the information about your mistress will be delivered straight to your wife," he threatened, his voice trembling with barely restrained anger.
On the other end of the line, Karter chuckled. "Mr. Genge, are you sure she's my mistress? Maybe it's just a little show meant to deceive you."
Tom's grip on his phone tightened, his knuckles whitening.
After a pause, he let out a cold laugh. "I underestimated you this time, but don't think this is over. You'd better be prepared to deal with the fallout."
He hung up abruptly, throwing his phone onto the floor with a resounding thud. His face was clouded with fury.
He had thought himself a master strategist, yet Damon had played him like a fool. This plan couldn't have been Brandon's doing—that idiot lacked the brains. It had to be Damon.
Originally, Tom had only planned to throw a wrench in the Sumner Group's operations, but now? He was going all in.
Not only would the Sumner Group fall, but Prospectus Technology wouldn't escape unscathed either.
…
Brandon couldn't help but smile when he heard about Tom's reaction.
He told the legal representative, "Good work. You can get back to your tasks now."

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....
